Mayim Bialik Instagram – Sharing some exciting Big Bang Theory-related news!!! 🎉⚛️🙌✨Link in bio.
Mayim Bialik Instagram – In honor of International Women’s Day (March 8th, 2024), I would like to remind the world that this is day 153 of 19 innocent women still being held hostage in Gaza by Hamas. Today and everyday, we cannot be silent and let this continue. These women and all 134 hostages deserve to come home now.
Please help by contacting your elected officials wherever you live. If you are in the US, go to http://www.oneminaday.com and everywhere else, go to http://www.lifeshiftr.com to demand the immediate release of our hostages.

Mayim Bialik Instagram – What better way to talk about this week’s @bialikbreakdown episode than by @missmayim singing and playing one of the most iconic songs by this week’s guest, the amazing @matisyahu!?
Make sure to check out this week’s episode anywhere you get podcasts and on Mayim Bialik’s @youtube channel ! 🧠 💪 🎶
Mayim Bialik Instagram – Of course I have opinions about a lot of things that went down at the Oscars both on the red carpet and on the stage but here’s what I’m going to say: I sure wish every single human being at the Oscars would have worn a yellow ribbon to show support for Hamas immediately returning the hostages who have been held since they were seized from their homes on October 7- including American citizens. The cease fire offer on the table demands the return of captive women, elderly, and the injured. It has been rejected by Hamas. #BringThemHome

Mayim Bialik Instagram – My friend Emily Feit @emily.feit – co-founder of Feit 4 KidZ which is a loan program for those experiencing infertility through Jewish Free Loan Association – has authored a children’s picture book called BEFORE WE HELD YOU IN OUR ARMS. It’s a delicate and sweet book with an overarching message of love and resiliency which shows children how much they were wanted despite hardship and struggle. It’s based off Emily and her husband’s personal journey and 50% of book sale proceeds are being donated back to Feit 4 KidZ. You can find the book on Amazon, Barnes and Noble or Books a Million!
Mayim Bialik Instagram – Here it is…..my final update of my meditation experience using @danharris’ 10% Happier app, Days 7 & 8!
Welp, I made it through my first week of meditation. And I’m pleased to report that it’s not as painful as I had built it up to be in my mind!
Actually, this is the first day all week that I only meditated once and didn’t go back for seconds. I guess there’s something to all the research that meditating twice per day yields the best benefits.
Day 7 was a harder day for me – I had a lot of sadness come up, which was strange, and then I did a meditation specifically for cultivating self-compassion, which was kind of hard but good hard.
It seems like I’m learning something about pacing. I think that something is physiologically happening when I’m introducing these pauses that naturally lower my heart rate and blood pressure.
I’ve noticed my desire for the quietness that happens when I meditate is louder than my desire to be pulled away by all the distractions that happen when one meditates.
I’m really grateful that I talked to Dan Harris – I felt so moved by his book 10% HAPPIER, and his app has genuinely taught me how to actually meditate.
So I’ve decided I’m going stick with the daily meditations, and maybe it’ll inspire others to do the same. It’s certainly cheaper than therapy and less problematic than self-medicating with other things. I’m going on DAY 41 and 725 minutes of meditating with the app as we finish.
Thanks very much for tuning in to see my progress. I think I’ll keep it going. 🙏

Mayim Bialik Instagram – Days 5 & 6 of my meditation experience using @danharris’ 10% Happier app!
Day 5: Today was interesting because even my therapist noticed a positive change in me after beginning this week’s journey. I’ve been focusing on applying the clarity I’ve gained during meditation to the times when I’m not meditating, and my vantage point feels a little broader.
I also realized today that with all of the sensations that come up in your body when you focus on your breathing, how could I possibly have room for anything else in my head?
Day 6: There’s something about the ritual of sitting in a dignified posture that really works for me while meditating. For me, it’s significantly different than the laying down and chillin’ I was doing before, and it’s made a world of difference.
I feel chill. That is all.
Stay tuned for my final meditation update tomorrow!
Mayim Bialik Instagram – Psychedelics 🍄, Making a Deal with God 🙏, the Unity of Music 🎵, Wilderness Therapy 🏕️, Untying Identity from Physical Appearance….this episode has it all! ✨
Dive deep into the soul-stirring journey of renowned musician Matisyahu, (@matisyahu) where music and mysticism collide in an unforgettable revelation.
We explore Matisyahu’s self-diagnosed learning disabilities, his life as “the last hippie”, and the spiritual awakening that led him from dropping out of high school to become a Dead Head and follow Phish on tour, to a stint in rehab and an empowering experience in a wilderness therapeutic program.
This is a RAW & REVEALING account of how psychedelic experiences, spirituality, and music have intertwined to shape his path from a troubled youth to a reggae music sensation!
Matisyahu also opens up about his move toward becoming very religious in his Jewish faith – including growing an extremely recognizable beard and studying at the yeshiva – the intersectionality between reggae and Judaism, the underground healer who saved his life, and the ebbs and flows of his relationship with religion….PLUS where he’s currently at with it now.
From pairing psychedelic drugs with spirituality and music at an early age – leading to a deep calling to dedicate his life to God and his music career – to the pressures of fame driving him to shave his iconic beard, this episode is a very personal examination of the ties between loneliness and spirituality.

Mayim Bialik Instagram – Days 3 & 4 of my meditation experience using @danharris’ 10% Happier app!
Day 3: I had a chanting meditation in my morning yoga class that somehow quieted my mind amidst all of the thoughts I had going on, and with that came a physical sensation of the emergence of “higher self” that some of these meditations talk about. It seemed easier than usual to focus.
Then something shifted with my pre-sleep meditation – it was a different kind of meditation, focusing on body sensations with an emphasis on letting things in instead of pushing them out when they’re unpleasant. I didn’t want it to end and found myself looking forward to the next day of meditation!
Day 4: I noticed some sort of difference in the voices in my head, more emerging clarity. Again, I was able to note things and let them move on. I feel like I’m building on each day’s meditation and I have some interesting understanding of body sensations in a different way.
It finally sunk in today that our brains are so unbelievable and that my mind is constantly generating judgment and fear and future and past and shame and sadness. And I don’t have to attach to every single thing that my mind produces. So I’m definitely experiencing some sort of shift. Now if I could only get my kids to meditate with me…😮💨
Stay tuned for more meditation updates throughout the week!
