Seeds of Wisdom: Vol 4–12

Cloudscape Flow, 2019

A study conducted at the

Eastern Ontario Research Institute

found that people who exercised

twice a week for 10 weeks

felt more competent socially,

academically, and athletically.

They also rated their body image

and self-esteem higher. Best of all,

rather than the physical changes

in their bodies being responsible

for the uptick in confidence, it was

the immediate, endorphin-fueled

positivity from exercise that made

all the difference. Schedule your

exercise to make certain it happens,

or the days will just slip away.

"Positive emotions flood our brains

with dopamine and serotonin, chemicals that not only make us feel good, but dial up the learning centers of our brains to higher levels. They help us organize new information, keep that information in the brain longer, and retrieve it faster later on. And they enable us to make and sustain more neural connections, which allows us to think more quickly and creatively, become more skilled at complex analysis and problem solving, and see and invent new ways of doing things."

"When our whole world shrinks down to just ourselves, the smallest problems or reversals of fortunes throw us. But when we widen the circle of our concern, we’re less concerned with the self — we’re less narcissistic, we have more perspective, we’re more empathetic, and more grateful. That has huge consequences — making us much more effective at dealing with stress, anxiety and even depression."

—Arianna Huffington

Sleep deprivation is linked to a variety of serious health problems, including heart attack, stroke, type 2 diabetes, and obesity. It stresses you out because your body overproduces the stress hormone cortisol when it's sleep deprived. While excess cortisol has a host of negative health effects that come from the havoc it wreaks on your immune system, it also makes you look older, because cortisol breaks down skin collagen, the protein that keeps skin smooth and elastic.
