Another reason could be that we like to be challenged, we like being late so we can see how quickly we can get to the next appt etc, life is more challenging and fun when we have to fit in more things

Ive even heard that exercising in extreme cold is bad for the heart as cold constricts blood vessels. So weather is something to keep in mind also. Its a common occurance for those who die from a heart attack in a triathalon occurs when there swimming in the ocean etc. the shock to the body ie drop ...

This is good question. ive read the keeping a high rate of more than 140bpm for 30mins is great to realease endorphins etc and help with things like anxiety. But yeah i wondered what effect it would have on your heart. Also in heart resistance training, 220 bpm -minus your age is a good target i bel...

I think there might be some webistes that have templates, and ideas of necessary things to consider when writing a business plan, might be worth to a bit of a google.

Haha yeah i agree another possible germ source would also be our mobile phones, how many of us steralise them from time to time. Think about we touch so many things on a day to day basis and also keep touching our phones soon after.

Yeah I also believe it is good to say it. You not only feel better (intending that you mean it ofcourse) as your more expressive of your emotions but also the recepient of the 'i love you' also feels good

Sailors used to drink rum when they were sick out at sea. The alcohol was used to kill bacteria and viru...

In ancient times also honey, lemon and garlic were at times worth more than gold as they had good antioxidants.

I think sleep is an important factor in maintaing your immune system, also that your daily stress levels and the foods we eat should be rich in antioxidants.

Haha ive heard about yawning being contagious but what is that we are communicating. is that when one person yawns and the other person also does that they are agreeing that what ever they are doing is boring?

Also apparently ive read that a person can be infectious for a period of 7 days since the onset of symptoms and this period might be extended among children. The virus itself can last for 30minutes on human flesh ie. hands and in the appropriate conditions upto a couple of days on hard surfaces ie h...

Here in AU its spreading really fast, moreso where i live in Victoria. I believe the only way it is transmittable is by exchange of bodily fluids, if a contaminated area is touched by your hands and then hands are placed in your mouth, eyes, nose, ears etc. Its important to avoid touching rubbing yo...

Life is so precious and not just when good things happen, whats sad is that everyday we live our life and only when something threatens our existence do we really learn to apprecaite it.

There is a good little book out forget what it is titled but adopts the same principle, I think the title is Fear it, and do it anyway. Fear seems to be a perception can either be realistic one or unrealistic, it may be a valid perception and therefore if we do fear something it might be to prevent ...

Haha great, alot of discoveries have occured by mistakes, and yes by people who originally may not have appeared any brighter than the person next to him. I think the main things are what you do with your mistakes, how you handle them, usually the mistakes we make can teach us more about life then t...
