DrDebzz Opening Shpiel:  Breathe in the New Year with Brightness, Kindness, Forgiveness, Generosity, Creativity, Positivity, Cool Calm Collected Confidence and Compassion, Veracity, Integrity, Gentility, Morality, Nobility. 

Discard old black and white limiting discounting negative critical tapes that no longer serve you. Begin 2018 in technicolor with a nurturing spirit towards yourself and others. Believe and you will receive!!

Featured artist is multi-platinum Grammy nominated songwriter, Shelly Peiken, who is best known for penning culturally resonant, female-empowerment anthems such as Christina Aguilera’s No. 1 hit, “What a Girl Wants” and Meredith Brooks’ smash, “Bitch.” 

Shelly performs an original tune, "George and John," accompanied by co- writers Phil Thornalley and David Monday. She reveals her inspiration for the song; the key to keeping love in her life; what music means to her; and offers advice for aspiring artists. 

Guest caller Darlene from Bel Air - I'm wondering why integrity isn't a priority for so many people. To me, it's the most important quality to have.  

Write in question from Susan in Beverly Hills:  I've been dating a guy whose teenage daughter lives with him and they kiss each other on the lips.  Is that appropriate?  It makes me uncomfortable.

Weekly WOW (Words of Wisdom)"Success consists of going from failure to failure without losing enthusiasm." - Sir Winston Churchill

New Year's Resolutions:  

 I let go of all damaging beliefs about myself and others.  

 I release all worn out behaviors in my life. 

 I let go of all negative thoughts that i've held about my body.  

 I release all fear and guilt when I say "no."

Esteem builders/Confidence boosters:  

 I can say "yes" to what I want and "no" to what I don't want.  The choice is mine.  I can be close to another person without losing myself.  

 I have a clear sense of myself in any relationship.  

 I have the right to honor my personal beliefs, values, and desires.  

 I am free from the fear, anger, or moodiness of others. 

 I am a valuable human being and I deserve to be treated with dignity and respect.  

Sleepless in Studio City w/DrDebzz Dishing on "Freedom from Fury/An Attitude of Gratitude"

DrDebzz Opening Shpiel: Stop drinking the poison and expecting the other person to die. Instead, be grateful for your deep seated resentments, embracing them as a segue to locating the love within yourself and others. Holiday Mission Possible Should You Choose To Accept It: Turn Anger into Compassion and Forgiveness. Spend the season at war or at peace…the choice is yours!!

Science has discovered that sowing a garden of gratitude reaps stronger immune systems; reduced aches & pains; lower blood pressure; better sleep; greater levels of positive emotions, e.g. joy, pleasure, optimism, increased feelings of forgiveness, a desire to be helpful, generous, social, outgoing, and a reduced sense of loneliness & isolation. 

Apropos during this time of Chanukah celebrations, I learned that the Hebrew name for God or Yehuda means “thankful.” The Talmud teaches that a person should find reasons to say 100 blessings each day.

The Modeh Ani, the traditional Jewish prayer said first thing in the morning, expresses gratitude for the very act of waking up: “I gratefully thank you God for you have restored my soul within me with compassion, abundant is your faithfulness.”

Guest Caller Laurie from California: The live in girlfriend of an ex beau sent me a nasty text telling me not to call or leave messages.  Should I tell my ex about it or should I just let both of them go?

Write in question from Carol of Albuquerque:  Why do guys talk on and on about themselves and never ask about me? I just want to find a man who listens and knows how to have a conversation with a woman, that’s not one sided.

Weekly Esteem Builders/Confidence Boosters:

I am honored and respected by all.

I am vibrantly healthy as I receive only positive energy, while protected from all negative energy.

I clearly communicate my needs and take the necessary time to discover and appreciate my true self and grow spiritually.

I attract only kind and gentle life lessons and relationships into my life.

Featured artist is Carole King singing an original tune, Christmas in the Air, cowritten by her daughter Louise Goffin and Jodi Marr, from her 2011 CD A Holiday Carole.

Sleepless in Studio City "The Best Version of Yourself" w/ Diana Krall

DrDebzz Opening Shpiel:  We have about 60-80,000 thoughts a day which we are in control of. We have a choice to "complain that rose bushes have thorns or rejoice that thorn bushes have roses.”  We also have control over our breath and can use it to discover the beauty within, thereby connecting with the oneness of all of humanity. 

Many companies now use meditation as a business model to promote and facilitate employee efficiency. Additionally, there is a global movement dedicated to using meditation to access the collective consciousness and thus, causing a shift in the divisive political turmoil.

Are you still waiting to receive approval from your parents, siblings, spouse, friends, relatives, co- workers, fans, etc?  Or are you willing to take the time to focus on consciousness raising practices and connect with your highest self, i.e. the capable confident compassionate creative unconditionally loving parts, therefore, not depending on validation and acceptance from outside sources. 

Have you ascertained that: past traumas & pain can be turned into power; your weaknesses may really be your assets; and "To Err is Divine?"

Guest caller Stephanie from San Diego: I’m recently divorced and met a man who’s totally enamored with me, but I’m not ready to be intimate with him. Should I let him know right away? I don’t want to give him the wrong impression.

Write in question from Gordon in Valley Village: I hate when people use their zodiac sign to justify shitty behavior, like "Sorry I can’t help it I’m a Scorpio.” I want to say back to them, “No, you’re just a bitch!"

Weekly WOW (Words of Wisdom) "What matters…Only the flicker of light in the darkness, the feeling of warmth within the cold, the knowledge of love within the void.” Joan Walsh Anglund

Esteem Builder: May the long time sun shine within you & the pure light within you guide you all the way on. Everything is in perfect order for your highest good & the good of all those you care about. All is well right here and right now & so it is.

Sleepless in Studio City "Happiness is..." feat. master pianist Bill Evans

DrDebzz Opening Shpiel: Is the elusive Happiness a Warm Gun as in the words of John Lennon or is it a Warm Puppy as in the words of Peanuts cartoonist Charles M. Schulz? Can you be happy alone or do you at least need a Wilson (as did Tom Hanks in Cast Away) or an invisible rabbit (as did Jimmy Stewart in Harvey)? What do you need to be happy? “If you gain something, it was there from the beginning. If you lose anything, it is hidden nearby.” (Ryokan poem)

Cure the Seasonal Lonelies by practicing the sixth language of love, i.e. sharing secret sensitivities and vulnerabilities. The greatest gift you can give yourself and others is playing the New Zoo Revue boardgame. Reference their smart thought provoking and profound questions as a starting point to connect with loved ones.

Guest Caller Gayle from Los Angeles: I’m obssessed with being invited to all the upcoming holiday parties and feel terrible when I’m not included. It must be something to do with low self esteem. How do you suggest I handle these awful feelings?

Write in question from Daniel in Omaha: My daughter is 13 and dresses provocatively with a ring in her nose, low cut shirts, and short skirts. I’m worried for her safety. I’ve told her my concerns but she thinks I’m old fashioned. I try to get close to her, but she shuns me and smirks whenever I say anything.

Weekly WOW’s (Words of Wisdom): The Most Effective Way to Help Others:
1) Only Offer Advice When Asked - Look for the Question Mark
2) Listen to other people’s dreams and help them in the way they wish to be helped.
3) Encourage them to find their own strength
4) Reserve Judgment AT ALL TIMES
5) Admit that you don’t know all the answers.
6) Build confidence in the other person until their own judgment becomes clear.
7) Have faith in the overall rightness of the Universe, in your purpose in this world & the next.
8) Dwell on what is right instead of what is wrong.
9) Realize the innate Divinity in each person. Respect it.
10) Never discount the other person’s good intentions.
 “Great spirit, may I not render judgment upon another until I have walked for one moon in their moccasins.” - An Indian Prayer

Hear genius Bill Evans, one of the most famous and celebrated jazz pianists of the 20th century, performing “Waltz for Debby,” with masters Scott LaFaro on bass and Paul Motian on drums. “Waltz for Debby” with lyrics by Gene Lees, was first recorded on Evans's 1956 album New Jazz Conceptions (without accompaniment) and on his 1961 live album Waltz for Debby. (I always thought the lyrics were dedicated to me - haha, but it turns out they were in honor of Evans’ niece, Debby Evans.)

Words to describe the genius of Bill Evans are: exquisite, enthralling, extraordinary, mesmerizing, smart, sharp, jaw dropping, flawless. His sounds will send shivers up your spine and penetrate your heart and soul on the deepest level, leaving you entranced enlightened uplifted and transformed. Miles Davis referred to Evans as having “quiet fire,” which is beautifully put. There’s not a single jazz pianist who hasn’t been influenced by Evans. He’s considered the greatest pianist who ever lived. “He plays like an angel. This must be what it sounds like in heaven.”
