Lower Your Risk

Lower the risk of Breast Cancer:

http://s413.photobucket.com/albums/pp219/kp207a/ht/breastcancer/0a_national_breast_cancer_month.gif

A tremendous amount of promising research is under way to determine the cause of breast cancer and to establish effective ways to prevent it. Still, doctors can’t always explain why one woman develops breast cancer and another doesn’t. Everyone seems to know someone with breast cancer and we wonder whether we too will be affected during our lifetime.

All of us want to do everything we can to reduce the risk of ever getting the disease. Right now, though we just don’t know enough about what causes breast cancer and we haven’t yet figured out how to keep it from happening we can’t say that we can “prevent” it. However, researchers are working to learn how our “external” and “internal” environments may work separately and together to affect our health and possibly the risk of developing breast cancer.

“Internal environment” means the things inside our bodies that influence our health such as genetics (the genes you got from your mother and father), hormones, illnesses and feelings and thoughts. “External environment” refers to the things outside of our bodies that influence our health such as air, water, food, danger, music, noise, people and stress.

Joy On The Job?

Tags:
@ 02:13 AM (15 days, 5 hours ago)
Can work be play? Scientists have discovered that joy on the job is our natural state.

We are like monkeys because we are hardwired to interact, cooperate, and play. Employees at some savvy companies play miniature golf in the hallways. Managers and team leaders appoint Humor Teams and Play Squads.

However, most of our organizations suffer from delight-deficiency syndrome. We think we must play OR work.

Why does play at work produce hefty financial rewards? When we are relaxed, we produce better quality. We function at a higher mental level. Our physical output is elevated. Play activates an alpha or theta brain state that stimulates joy and creativity.

Here’s an example of how a repetitive or boring task can become joy on the job. David Smith and Mark McCahill are computer scientists who were well aware of how tiresome the task of composing spreadsheets can be.

In the Croquet Project (www.opencroquet.org), Smith and McCahill and their colleagues created a virtual reality that merged play and joy with formulating spreadsheets. The scientists incorporated characters similar to video game icons into an open-source system with interactive three-dimensional virtual worlds.

Please don’t let this scientific language fool you. Human employees got to fulfill their need to be like primates at play… the staff clowned around while they shared resources. Employees manipulated their avatars to cooperatively edit text files and spreadsheets. The quality of their work was excellent.
