SLEEP😴

Clocks are everywhere and not just in our homes. They work all the way down to the cellular level.

A lot of our bodily time is based on light or dark. For example, if you live close to the equator, or even on it, the duration of days and nights are very similar throughout the year. But if you live further away from the equator your days might get longer or shorter depending on the season. For me here in India, I live very close to the equator so the length of days and nights here don't change a lot and are predictable. But for someone who lives, say in Stockholm, Sweden the days and nights change drastically. In the winter they receive only six hours of daylight. This is why the circadian rhythm [your body clock] would be more stable in India than in Sweden. There are two main hormones in your body that help you sleep and stay awake. Melatonin is the hormone that helps you shut down and Cortisol is the hormone that starts preparing you for waking up. It does things like regulating blood pressure and releasing glucose throughout your body. Now glucose is food for your cells, which means that your body is getting ready to do work even before you wake up. During the day you produce a hormone called Adenosine which makes you feel tired during the day [Fun fact!: people tend to get tired after lunch because their body is focusing most of its energy on digestion]. In the evening when it starts to get dark your body starts producing Melatonin again which will help you sleep. After that, the cycle repeats, and in the morning you start producing Cortisol which will wake you up.  Every day is a series of ups and downs controlled by our circadian rhythm.
So dear readers, stay away from screens and caffeine, for it will disrupt your production of Melatonin and will also ruin your circadian rhythm.

TODAY'S TOPIC: documenting

We have all tried to maintain a diary or a journal. But for a lot of us, this hasn't worked, either because we didn't get the time or we just couldn't keep up with what goes on in one itty bitty little book. In any case, journaling doesn't mean writing about your day in detail it just means documenting your day, it can be tracking your health, keeping a record of your calls, or even keeping track of your goals and achievements [that's what I do by the way]. So my advice for you today is that you should personalize the way you keep track of things and what you keep track of, you don't have to do it like somebody else.

'cause they can't find any new ones.

#Today'sImportantTalk VICTORY!! We did it. Sure it's not over but we have gotten used to this reality and we are all rocking each other's world while keeping each other safe from a distance [6 feet ar more]. And I think that's a great achievement. Day by day we rise higher above this situation to follow our dreams and not just weave around our difficulties and problems but fight them for our right to survive and thrive in this new environment. We have all developed new skills to cope with the hardships of a time like this. And will be more than ready for something like this in the future. we have made room for innovation, an [crashing] economy [we're still working on that], work, school, music, and all that we love while still keeping everyone safe and happy. You need to realize how far we've come and even though we have a long way to go we need to celebrate how much we've achieved on this scary time. So congratulations to all my friends family and eve...

#MyBigGoal To have fun and chill all day. #Today'sImportantTalk GMOs: SHOULD WE WORRY🌽 The straight answer, there is none. GMOs are Genetically Modified Organisms. We usually modify foods, so that they are easier to access for our ever-growing population. Adding modifications in plants and crops is just adding on to the existing DNA to make the plant more sustainable. there is a good side and bad side to adding GMOs.Let me give you two examples. One way we're using them is by infusing our food with more nutrients like proteins and for people who have deficiencies it will also make produce healthier. the other way GMOs are used is by making plants immune to pesticides, insecticides, and herbicides which might also cause cancer in humans. So it's a 50,50 decision for whether GMOs are safe or not. #MyAdvice TODAY'S TOPIC: knots recently when I was shuffling around my room I found some surprisingly strong rope in one of my drawers and I tried doin...

Is the situation confusing?

#Today'sImportantTalk  ... OR ARE YOU CONFUSED ?                                                                  The topic I have chosen for today is a famous dilemma that all the trolley (a trolley in New York is a mode of public transport. A lot like the metro that you might be more familiar with) drivers of New York City have to learn about. It's known as the trolley dilemma. Imagine a trolley. It's moving along the track at a fast pace up ahead on the track, you see five people stuck on the tracks, but there is another track the trolley can switch to on which one person is stuck. If you were standing near a lever that can switch the trolley to a different track, would you switch to the second track killing one person or stay on the one ...
