Breathe On🙏🏻 Keep Calm

Keep Calm
&
Breathe On

Breathing is such a fundamental part of our lives, but stress can interfere with it in negative ways by shortening our breathing, making it shallower, and breathing with our chest more (which constricts air and blood flow). 
But engaging in deep abdominal breathing can counteract many of the body’s physical reactions to stress, such as lowering heart rate, releasing muscle tension, and lowering blood pressure.

It’s also great at stimulating the relaxation response for a calmer, less stressed you.

Whenever you feel stressed, breath in and out to the animated breathing graphics to help you feel instantly better and lower your stress levels!

Need more info on how to do deep breathing?

Here’s how:

1. Sit or lie down somewhere comfortable, close your eyes, and take a few moments to breathe regularly, allowing your body to slow down.
   
2. Place one hand on your chest and the other on your belly.
   
3. Inhale deeply through your nose for a count of four, making sure your belly is expanding and not your chest. 
   
4. Imagine breathing in energy and confidence.
   
5. Exhale for a count of four, breathing out stale air, stress, and anything you want to leave behind.
   
6. Continue this breathing cycle for a few minutes, keeping your breath even and smooth.

Things You Thought Were True 🙉But Aren’t

10 Things

You Thought Were True

But Aren’t

10. You Can’t Really See The Great Wall Of China From Space

You know the expression, but it’s not true. There is a ton of manmade structures that you can see from space, but the Great Wall of China is not one of them. It is possible to see the wall, but it’s not easily visible.

9. Your Hands Don’t Wrinkle From Over Exposure To Water

After a long day in the pool, you may notice that your hands are really wrinkly. Most people believe that it is from the overexposure to water, but that’s not true. It’s actually due to our “autonomic nervous system” and it is something that has evolved from our ancient ancestors.

8. 420 Has Nothing To Do With Marijuana

Believe it or not, but the term “420” has absolutely nothing to do with smoking marijuana. It’s actually a Police code in Los Angeles that means “juvenile disturbance.”

7. Most Fish Have Good Memories

In Finding Nemo, the character Dory is a fish with a terrible memory. Believe it or not, but that is an exaggerated example. Fish actually have better memories than people give them credit for.

6. The Forbidden Fruit Was Not An Apple

This is something that probably got lost in translation over the years. The word apple was never written in the Bible. Many scholars believe that the infamous fruit was actually a fig.

5. The Earth Doesn’t Revolve Around The Sun

This one might be the hardest to believe. It’s become common knowledge that the Earth revolves around the Sun, or does it? The Earth is actually revolving around the Barycenter of our solar system.  https://spaceplace.nasa.gov/barycenter/en

4. Humans Have More Than Five Senses

Even though you might not realize it, you actually have a variety of senses that aren’t commonly discussed. Pain, temperature, balance, and many others are all examples of these extra senses.

3. Dogs Are Not Color Blind

The myth that dogs are color blind has been around for awhile, but it turns out they’re not as color blind as we thought. Our four legged friends can actually see a variation of different colors, just not to the extent

that we do.

2. Orange Got Its Name From The Fruit

This is a great little factoid. Before the 15th century, orange was considered a variation on the color red. It eventually got its own category when it took the name from the fruit.

1. Chameleons Don’t Change Colors To Blend In

This one is a real shocker. Rather than use their color changing abilities to hide from predators, they are actually changing color to display aggression and many other types of emotions.

Ruth Bader Ginsburg 🙏In Memoriam

Ruth Bader Ginsburg

March 15th, 1933 - September 18th, 2020 

"I would like to be remembered as someone who used whatever talent she had to do her work to the very best of her ability."

 

Ruth Bader Ginsburg Through the Years

By The New Yorker - March 4, 2013

The Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg “can project the daunting stillness of a seated monarch,” Jeffrey Toobin writes in his Profile of Ginsburg this week. “She is tiny - about five feet tall and a hundred pounds - and her face at rest conveys a pursed-lipped skepticism.
She dresses with a dowager’s elegance, often in exotic shifts acquired on her travels around the world; she sometimes wears long gloves indoors.” 

A groundbreaking litigator for women’s rights before being appointed to the bench, Ginsburg has worn many aspects in her eighty years. 

A law graduate who left Columbia as co-valedictorian (but with no job offers), as a young mother, and as an advocate whose greatest legacy may be in the cases that she argued before what was then an all-male Supreme Court - and won.  

Remembering Ruth Bader Ginsburg 

NYT News

Ruth Bader Ginsburg has died. The second woman to serve on the Supreme Court, she had powerful opinions that made her a cultural icon. She was 87.

At the age of 85, U.S. Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg has developed a lengthy legal legacy while becoming an unexpected pop culture icon. 

But the unique personal journey of her rise to the nation's highest court has been largely unknown, even to some of her biggest fans – until now.

9/11 Responders 🗽 Sobering Numbers Remind Us of Sacrifice

 Sobering Numbers

That Remind Us To Honor The Sacrifice

Of   9/11  Responders

 09/11/2014

Thirteen years after the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks, some first responders and rescue workers are still waiting to receive proper care and compensation. From increased rates of cancer and other diseases to a continued failure by lawmakers to pass clear legislation to manage benefits, their burden has mounted with time, as new studies detail the toxic environments they rushed into.

As Americans move forward and look back this Sept. 11, let’s remember the sacrifice of those who put their lives on the line that day.

🙏

414

The number of first responders killed on Sept. 11, 2001.  Personnel responding to the attack on the Pentagon and to the downed plane in Shanksville, Pennsylvania, all survived.

🙏

60,000-70,000

The number of responders exposed to the highly toxic dust from the wreckage of the World Trade Center towers. It contained asbestos, glass shards, cement and other toxins.

🙏

2,000  

The number of first responders injured.

100-250

The number of materials in each particle of dust from the destroyed towers.

🙏

91,000

The number of liters of jet fuel combusted in the attack, contributing to the dust cloud.

🙏

10-11

The pH level of destroyed concrete, which accounted for two-thirds of the total mass of World Trade Center dust. In comparison, ammonia’s pH level is 11. In 2006, Environmental Protection Agency scientist Cate Jenkins said dust created by the attack was “as caustic and alkaline as Drano.”

2,518

The number of rescue workers, including firefighters and EMT personnel, who have cancer.

15%

How much more likely first responders are to be diagnosed with cancer than the general public, according to a federally sponsored study of almost 21,000 World Trade Center rescue and recovery workers.

239%

How much more likely first responders are to be diagnosed with thyroid cancer than the general public.

21%  

How much more likely first responders are to be diagnosed with prostate cancer than the general public. Prostate cancer was not covered under the Zadroga Act, which provides testing and treatment for first responders, until last year.

1,400

The number of first responders who have died from health complications stemming from their work at Ground Zero, since Sept. 11, 2001, according to estimates.

In 2006, FDNY firefighter John McNamara stands outside Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, where he was undergoing chemotherapy for cancer he contracted Sept. 11

12

The number of years it took for the first sick responders to begin receiving payments for health compensation.

55,188

The total number of complete registrations submitted to the 9/11 Victims Compensation Fund as of Sept. 8, 2014, according to a program report. At least 91 people from the Pentagon and Shanksville sites also applied to the fund, according to federal officials in 2013. Would-be claimants are required to register for the fund in order to apply for benefits, and applications are reviewed rigorously.

1,843

The number of applications for compensation that had been paid, as of Sept. 8, 2014. The mean amount of these payments is $267,915.72.

2

The number of years until the Zadroga Act expires, unless lawmakers extend the law, which provides health care and compensation to both responders and survivors.

300

The approximate number of service dogs that assisted in the search and rescue operation. They would later help in uncovering victims’ belongings, such as jewelry, to be returned to victims’ families. Studies have indicated that dogs, unlike their human handlers, have not shown signs of any significant health issues from their work.

 

Moxie and her handler, Mark Aliberti, arrived at the World Trade Center on the evening of Tuesday, Sept. 11, 2001, and searched the site for eight days.
