Australian Public Service Commission - 15 Building resilience Individual and organisational resilience is crucial to how employees respond to challenge and change at work. A resilient individual tends to be flexible, be adaptive, cope (even in difficult times), learn from experience and be optimistic. The resilient individual is also more likely to recognise what support they may require to ‘bounce back’. In the workplace context, this may include increased support from colleagues or workplace adjustments. A resilient team is one that is based on mutual trust, social norms, participation and social networks as well as resources to adapt positively to change. Why it matters Building a resilient work team is an important part of creating a healthy and productive work environment. Resilience provides a protective factor for individuals, teams and the organisation to deal effectively with times of change, high pressure and stress.1 At the most basic level, good job design will go a long way to promoting a healthy workplace. How it’s done Provide leadership.
The Role of Oxalates in Autism and Chronic Disorders Read this article in: Dutch A mummy that had been preserved for a couple of thousand years in the high desert of Chile was discovered upon X-ray examination to have a very large oxalate stone in the kidney, about the size of a golf ball. The discovery of this ancient sufferer is testimony to the fact that kidney stones and oxalate toxicity have afflicted humans for a very long time. Oxalates (the salt form of oxalic acid) are extremely painful when deposited in the body. About eighty percent of kidney stones are caused by oxalates and they are by far the most common factor in kidney stone formation. Oxalates can form all throughout the kidney and the urinary tract, and can also form in the ureter as well as in the bladder. Some kidney stones acquire a stag horn shape, while some oxalate crystals resemble pieces of coral. Kidney stones are one of the most common medical ailments—ten to fifteen percent of adults will be diagnosed with a kidney stone in their lifetime. A Dr. Dr.
Pace Learning - Building Resilience in the workplace Building Resilience @work! Q: What is the single most important factor in determining whether a person is successful, satisfied and happy? A: Resilience! Stress? Do any (or all!) These are the inevitable facts of life! It’s not about whether these will happen to you or not (because they will!) Psychologists, scientists and people in general, have for decades wondered how it is that some people are able to bounce back from adversity whereas others bend and some break. Recent research has shown that resilience is something that can be learned and developed and therefore can lead to greater productivity, effectiveness, happiness and in general, greater work and life outcomes. What is Resilience? Resilience has been described as our ability to bounce back from adversity. Esther Orioli, a world-renowned authority on stress and resilience, defines resilience as,“your ability to... And the best part of all is that it can be learned and developed! Resilience = Happiness.
David Berreby – The obesity era Years ago, after a plane trip spent reading Fyodor Dostoyevsky’s Notes from the Underground and Weight Watchers magazine, Woody Allen melded the two experiences into a single essay. ‘I am fat,’ it began. ‘I am disgustingly fat. I am the fattest human I know. I have nothing but excess poundage all over my body. That, as we used to say during my Californian adolescence, was then. And so the authorities tell us, ever more loudly, that we are fat — disgustingly, world-threateningly fat. Moral panic about the depravity of the heavy has seeped into many aspects of life, confusing even the erudite. Several governments now sponsor jauntily named pro-exercise programmes such as Let’s Move! Hand-in-glove with the authorities that promote self-scrutiny are the businesses that sell it, in the form of weight-loss foods, medicines, services, surgeries and new technologies. Higher levels of female obesity correlated with higher levels of gender inequality in each nation And what about light?

Why Art Therapy is Good for the Alzheimer's Brain Art therapy has proven a powerful tool for treating Alzheimer’s. More than giving patients something pretty to look at it or an exercise to keep them busy, it stimulates the brain. It stirs memories and can bring language back into the life of someone who struggles to speak. “A picture is worth a thousand words,” an adage demonstrated over and over through the success of art therapy on Alzheimer’s patients. Patients don’t necessarily re-learn lost words through this treatment, but they are exploring a new vocabulary. Studies show that art therapy gives back to Alzheimer’s patients, in some part, what the disease has taken away. Research published in the Canadian Journal of Neurological Sciences examined how Alzheimer’s patients recall events through artwork. Hecht couldn’t recall time on a clock or name common animals. In interviews with Hecht’s researchers, Medical Daily reports how art allows Alzheimer’s patients to bypass language.
Is resilience the new stress management? | Brightspark Training When it comes to stress, it helps to know what you are talking about. Misconceptions abound and terminology changes. It’s common, too, for organisations to badge their stress management programmes as Health and Wellbeing initiatives. Fine, as long as you are clear about the objectives. Now enter Resilience (well, it’s been around for quite a few years now but I’m hearing it more and more these days as learning and development professionals focus on supporting staff in difficult times). Resilience can operate at different levels: organisational, team and individual but let’s focus here on individual resilience. So what is resilience? Resilience is the ability of an individual to recover and rebound despite adversity. In other words, a resilient individual is one who can navigate highly challenging times without detriment to their physical, emotional and psychological health. So what attributes, skills and behaviours do we need if we are to be resilient? Well the answer is yes and no.

This Garlic Soup Recipe Can Defeat Colds, Flu and Even Norovirus by JOHN SUMMERLY Forget the flu shot. A soup based on more than 50 cloves of garlic, onions, thyme and lemon will destroy almost any virus that enters its path including colds, flu and even norovirus. As we sneeze and cough our way through these dark months of contagious nasties, garlic is being hailed for its powers to halt viruses in their tracks. It has gained its reputation as a virus buster thanks to one of its chemical constituents, allicin. A recent and significant finding from Washington State University shows that garlic is 100 times more effective than two popular antibiotics at fighting disease causing bacteria commonly responsible for foodborne illness. When the garlic is crushed, alliin becomes allicin. ‘This chemical has been known for a long time for its anti-bacterial and anti-fungal powers,’ says Helen Bond, a Derbyshire-based consultant dietitian and spokeswoman for the British Dietetic Association. ‘Because of this, people assume it is going to boost their immune systems.
