The Southwest’s Wildest Outdoor Art: From Lightning Fields to Sun Tunnels 30:55

15 days ago30:55

30:55

A secret field that summons lightning. A massive spiral that disappears into a salt lake. A celestial observatory carved into a volcano. Meet the wild—and sometimes explosive—world of land art, where artists craft masterpieces with dynamite and bulldozers. In our Season 2 premiere, guest Dylan Thuras, cofounder of Atlas Obscura, takes us off road and into the minds of the artists who literally reshaped parts of the Southwest. These works aren’t meant to be easy to reach—or to explain—but they just might change how you see the world. Land art you’ll visit in this episode: - Double Negative and City by Michael Heizer (Garden Valley, Nevada) - Spiral Jetty by Robert Smithson (Great Salt Lake, Utah) - Sun Tunnels by Nancy Holt (Great Basin Desert, Utah) - Lightning Field by Walter De Maria (Catron County, New Mexico) - Roden Crater by James Turrell (Painted Desert, Arizona) Via Podcast is a production of AAA Mountain West Group.…

S2 Episode 02| FND and Prognosis 30:14

7 weeks ago30:14

30:14

In this episode of the FunctionaliTEA podcast, Tausha unpacks the often confusing and unhelpful concept of “prognosis” when it comes to Functional Neurological Disorder (FND). While many medical conditions come with a clear trajectory, FND is anything but predictable. Tausha explores how symptoms can fluctuate wildly—from day to day, or even moment to moment—and why trying to define a “likely” outcome can feel laughable to those living it. She also opens up about the limitations of the diagnostic process, the ongoing lack of awareness among primary care providers, and the drop-off in care that often happens after an initial diagnosis. The conversation touches on the emotional impact of medical dismissal and why many people with FND feel left to figure things out on their own. Tausha emphasizes the importance of creating space for individual experiences, building supportive communities, and advocating for broader awareness—especially during FND Awareness Month. This episode offers both clarity and validation for anyone navigating the uncertainty of this condition.…

We must push in order to prosper. In this inspirational episode host Tausha fills us in on just how she remains persistent AND positive. #dontgiveup…

Yoga Yoga Yoga. As mentioned in the episode, yoga is one of the biggest achievements of globalization. This week Tausha tries to give a different perspective on the practice of yoga because many of those who suffer from chronic illness are semi triggered or offput by the word or the idea of it. It is often pushed by able bodied persons who don't truly understand. Though YOGA IS NOT A CURE, it is an addition to lifestyle that will only benefit the user.
