Study with me 24h before my FINAL EXAM (med school vlog)

 Hello Kermamedic friends here, and welcome to a new potion… Finally, here it is! In a previous video of my Oski exam in the Faculty of Medicine, I announced a major event in the future. Today is tomorrow!! Let me show you something. That’s what the last two weeks have been about. And tomorrow is Oski’s day. This is Oski’s final week in medical school. The biggest, hardest, most notorious, anxiety-inducing test. … is tomorrow… And I want to tell you that I have lost the will to live as well as the desire to study for this exam. I am okay You’re done, boy. You’re done. So well, honestly, those last two days have been a solid, rigorous study and I got through it and that’s why I don’t plan on doing that much studying today at all. I have a list of a few things that I still need to reconfirm and after I’m done I have to go through this list I just want to go over the 4 main exams, abdominal scan, cardiovascular, respiratory, cranial nerves, and motor exams of the upper and lower extremities because they are very likely to Come on the exam so I’m going to do it one last time to be in the best shape I can and well and that’s pretty much it after that I’m going to the gym for gym and then I’m going to play video games with my sister and I’m going to rest and relax because I’m over it and I’m almost done I want to…. ah ah Scream, this is what we’re going to do. We’re not going to think, we’re just going to stop thinking I’m going to study another day and I’m going to start studying today and I’ve got some delicious strawberries and I’m about to get some coffee, and let’s do this. Well, let’s do this, put the phone on silent. And we throw him on the bed again, like the last time I was preparing for OSCEs in the fourth year, and if you haven’t seen his fluke I advise you to see it I like it very much and I will put it for you here and I use this book and it is my main and it is completely falling off let me show you as you can see All the pages are falling off and I’ve used and benefited from this book very well so the first thing on my list and I’m going to learn about it are decisions and directions that you can make in advance about your treatment in case of future aphasia and not being able to make those kinds of decisions on your own so I’m going to read this and then Moving on… { …………. ……………… } Today is Mother’s Day in the Arab world so we sent my mom some flowers and the card she had just received… and I’d run back to her..and say, “Have a nice day.” Anyway, we’re back at work. So I spent about an hour studying. It’s all over for that first little sticky note here. I’m just going to get rid of it and throw it away and now I have this second sticky note with things on it that I didn’t know would make it into the exam until my good friend Georgina told me about it yesterday. This is what we will study now. One of those things is a C spine imaging or C spine X-ray. I’m going to see a random YouTube video about that if you’re wondering what this thing is right here on the side screen on the iPad here. This is a video game that I’ve been running in the background doing something very weird, not necessarily fundamental so I can stay sane here and make my time at this desk more enjoyable. It’s kind of like an incentive for me to sit here and study and every 10 minutes or so I click here a little bit, play a little bit of this game and that’s what’s kept me up for the last day. It is what it is. Anyway, without further ado let’s watch this video and take some notes Honestly, I can’t stress this enough. If there’s something you don’t understand or something you’re learning for the first time, I find watching YouTube videos to be the best way to do it. These are the people who have already learned the thing you are trying to learn and are now trying to explain it in an easy-to-understand way with all kinds of beautiful pictures, maps, locations..etc. This is often much easier than your 50-minute lecture I’m sure many 50-minute lectures cover cervical spine X-rays but you know a lot of detail is going to come out and a lot of research and history coming to where we are now I want to know how to interpret C spine X-ray and spine X-ray. So this is what I need… Well, I’m going to present this as if today is the exam I’m looking at the spine C and the x-ray of patient John Smith a large man of fifty-five years old who was coming to the hospital OK the patient history record and communication is two parts of the Oski exam. We also have things like exams, procedural skills, and assessment stations. So it all involves doing hands-on things with our hands talking to patients and examining them with things like a stethoscope and a tendon hammer also and please avoid everything you see here the exam is tomorrow I don’t want to clean my room right now. If you recall, inside some of my previous vlogs was We Have Sonic the Hedgehog, this big damn game that I can check out and it was useful but I just threw it in the trash. So that’s why it’s gone but instead, what we have is Mr. Chair, oops let me get a patch I found ok Mr. Chair so Mr. Chair is 24 years old and he presented to the emergency department with severe shortness of breath. So I’ll check it out and mark the screen and hope I don’t miss anything. Practice exam skills. What’s funny about this, my friends is that: when we first started preparing for the OSCII exam in year 2, in fact, you probably already knew this if you were watching my videos at the time, I used to complain a lot about the six-minute timer we have to complete these exams is too short and how can we do All we need to do in the six minutes they give us and now when we practice for these exams as final year medical students we only pass it in one minute and sometimes even a minute and a half depending on the exam it’s terrible when you think back on it but I think it’s a testament to show That practice makes perfect. Keep working on something..you’ll get better at it, etc..so let’s get started, and study for the exam Hello good morning, my name is Nasir and I’m a final year medical student in the emergency department I’m going to confirm your name and age please my name is Mr. Chair, I’m 24 years old Hello Mr. Chair, nice to meet you today. I’m going to check your lungs. This would include looking, listening, and examining your hands, your face, and your chest. Is that OK? Yes, sure, well, thank you very much, just to explain a few things to the examiner with me first, if that’s possible. Thank you very much, Mr. Chair. Thank you very much. So, we have a minute and a half left on the timer. Assuming I haven’t missed anything major which is always possible. Let’s go to the marking chart and have a look, introduction – patient details, cones, screening of cervical lymph nodes aahhh check the lymph nodes in the back of the patient and feel for the supraclavicular nodes here…… then we go to the submandibular salivary gland in front of the ear note; Don’t forget to check the lymph gland ooh oh yeah Fremitus Vocal 99 99 99 When you are listening to the patient’s chest in all the different areas you are supposed to listen to him again and ask him to say 99 99 99 99 99 This is a test called Acoustic Fremitus. And if you have coherence or a lump in the chest, then the sound will travel better, so you’ll hear 99% louder over the areas where there is reinforcement versus those where there isn’t, so this test!! Well, I remembered almost everything pretty much I didn’t do a fremitos audio 99 99 and check the lymph nodes and in my humble opinion this would be easy with the station and then of course you have to summarize your findings and you have to report this to the specialists etc. And if you forget these two things. It’s okay, it’s not the end of the world. Well my friends, what’s the deal? With every check I do, it is expected that I will forget some things that are OK. But I have to reduce the number of things I forget. And that’s why we do the exercise. This puts in the big picture. Missing a few things on an exam is expected. It won’t be the end of the world. It certainly won’t let you down. But I want to forget as few things as possible. Hours later, we’re about to get to 1 pm. I have just written down in my diary all kinds of major steps and special tests that are done in all the musculoskeletal, shoulder, ankle, hands, and then also peripheral arterial and vein disease examinations and I feel ready. I feel good. Honestly, I don’t think I would do anything else. Study wise for the rest of the day I’m going to ask Kenji and Georgina if either of them is rehearsing history to rehearse for a day earlier and later, but other than that I think I’m done with a very nice sunny day today so I’d like to enjoy that at least a little bit. I want to go to the gym, and maybe also play some video games with my sister in the evening. Just relax, take a break, and calm down before the test date. So I’ll get some food, get some lunch, and yeah, we’ll get on with the day.  I try to relax and take a break, and tomorrow is tomorrow… When testing, we have to look our best and that means clean shaven and then some formal wear with a shirt. Then confirmation. I have to get all that fluff out and trim those lines a little bit. Let’s do it I don’t know why I would, if I would wear a mask all the time. It won’t make much difference but if you look good, you feel good and it generally gives you confidence. Therefore, I think it is worth it. I am surprised that this camera has not fallen so far, as it is a bit of a miracle. Well, we’re all done. Let’s get some food. Good. We’ll make ourselves lunch. And we’re going to watch the new episodes of Top Boy it’s awesome and as you all know, this is my favorite eating stand that just brings things together and makes everything so much more convenient. It makes me look like a grandfather. That’s the way it is. Sit back, relax, and enjoy the show. By the way, bye to the moderators, not to spoil the show. Hello my friend how are you? Good, and you? I feel like your laptop will fall off the table, not that it is fixed with a stand on the back. Hello, Massad Al-Khair, my name is Nasir Kharma and I am a doctor here. Can you say your name and age, please? My name is Paul and…………!! Well, on my way to the gym, look at the beautiful weather we had here last week. Alas, I have been confined at home studying and preparing for the exam but I kind of went to take advantage of this once the exams are over anyway let’s start with the exercise step the stress of sweating just to rest and rest my head and I’ll see you in peace oh well this is well first day one of my friends, I’m just waiting outside the site which is a very nice place I got myself a quick coffee and my general plan is to get in at the last possible second. To listen to my music as often as I can. That’s what I’m going to do for five minutes and then I’m going to the hall for the exam and I have to take the electronics so I can get in afterward. And I’ll see you after that Peace… Oh my God Oh my God Well day one is done I’m not going to lie It was a lot more complex than I thought It wasn’t as straightforward as previous OSCE systems. I believe they deliberately tried to deceive us when going to the Respiratory Check Station, which later turned out to be the ATP Station. Well, then there were other stations where the wording was completely unclear. A lot of students complained about misunderstandings, what they wanted us to check, or what they wanted us to do, and they came and took feedback from all of us on how to change the wording moving forward. So you could have done a better job. But that’s okay, I wasn’t feeling great about two of the six stations we had today. Then there are six more stops tomorrow. But once I get the written feedback from the examiners, I guess it kind of puts me at ease. The comments there were much better than I thought I did I’ll be fine. Anyway, that’s it. The first exam is over and another one is tomorrow. We have to start at 8 am and we have to stay until 11 am and then we do the exam and we are quarantined again until 1 pm until other students are counted in other universities around London and so we stay in quarantine and so that the information is not shared outside I think that’s good I think it good. I think it’s good. This is the end of my walk after the exam… I’m going home, I’m going to do some prescribing practice for today only, it’s possible to take one exam like this and nothing more than that I’m going to sit with Nour, it was very fun yesterday Anyway, see you my friends, peace… … Hey my group (my friends) I’m home on the couch, just chill out and relax a bit. I’m going to call Kenji and Georgina just to debrief about the stations we had today and the exam, talk about it a bit and get it off the chest and then maybe do a little practice description. I think I’ll finish it there I’ll pick up the camera again When I start calling it hits me that this is almost over as if medical school university is finally almost over. Mad madness, well see you in a little while. well, to PDF H 32 or 32, Article 32 or Page 32? Article 32….! Well, let’s say guys, as I said before, more studying today won’t make any difference for today. And I think more study won’t make any difference at all for tomorrow. So we’ll end it here. It’s five in the evening, I’m going to rest and pack my bags. I’m ready to fly on Thursday early in the morning. So I can go out and celebrate tomorrow evening with everyone and I won’t have to pack for travel, and yeah, that’s what we’re doing for the day. almost done. See you guys in a little while, Hello, Alright, so I’m going snowboarding tomorrow, not the day after tomorrow with about 10 of my friends from high school to celebrate finishing medical school, hopefully finishing medical undergraduate and all is well Alright tomorrow (let’s grab the wood) But let’s get started Time is running… Well, I’m packing up. It’s pretty much there. I just need to put some last things in tomorrow. Now it’s time to sit down with Noor… and play an episode of Eldon for a few hours. To relax and enjoy the night and that’s it. I’ll see you, my friends, tomorrow morning. Good morning and welcome to the day of the second OSC exam… I will be in a different location today, I am on the train and they separate us in different locations as Kings College London students so that we can see different examiners with different groups and things like that. It’s very popular this video of me releasing it tomorrow I put it on Instagram now I’m simply trying to relax as much as I can for a bit, before the exam I come early and I have some time, … hello … oh still filming … we are back on the youth campus. I guess today didn’t work as well as yesterday. I think there were a couple of stations that I found challenging and I don’t think I got the intended diagnosis in the end. But I hope my communication skills and everything else in history taken away will make up for it. But anyway, I wouldn’t think about it. I just had a meal with Aaron and Georgina I’m going to put the picture here..now I’m going to go to a coffee shop there and meet some friends to rest and breathe it’s been almost a week since I last logged in I forgot to close the blog and I just realized I hadn’t done it yet during this time I went skiing In Austria I came back..and surgery started this morning, I get up at 5 am everything was so crowded, but that will be another day for Flock. I just want to thank you for taking the time to watch this video. I hope you enjoyed it. And if you enjoyed it….. please don’t forget to like it and subscribe to my channel for more content to come in the future. And I’ll catch you on the next one, …..Peace……..

Top 10 Lucid Dreaming Teas/Herbs COMPARED And Explained

 All right welcome back so today we’re going to talk about the best lucid dreaming teas   that will broaden your dream life and make your dreams more vivid more likely to become lucid and   in some cases they’ll help you remember your dreams better as well so if you’re new to   lucid dreaming or you just want to enhance your dreams in some way but you don’t want to take   these supplements like Galanza means 5 htp hhuperzinemaybe you’re worried about the side effects or   you just want something milder and you already drink things like tea well lucid dreaming tea is   a great way of enhancing your dream so let’s just get right into it okay we’re going to explain the   10 best lucid dreaming teas that you can try and how they work and what effects they’ll have people   from all over the world have you know from many different backgrounds and spiritual traditions   have recognized the value and power of lucid dreaming and many of these civilizations and   cultures have used natural things like herbs and teas to enhance the dreaming experience   this is not a new thing so a popular approach to supplementing is actually to   drink tea that is infused with herbs that support lucid dreaming so many of these herbs can already be found in teas in the market in kind of a pre-packaged form that will save you the   time that it would take you to actually supplement and do things like that   so what are the best herbal teas the best lucid dreaming teas that you can find   well number one we have and by the way these are not in any particular order okay I’m just going   to explain the best 10 lucid dreaming teas so you have things like kalia zzakatttaichinow this originated in Mexico and it’s been known as people kind of call it different things like   it’s been known as being called bitter grass okay it’s native to kind of Mexico and central America   it’s known for hallucinogenic properties as well as significantly enhancing dream imagery and   recall it’s really useful for helping you enter hypnagogia sleep hypnagogia which is where you’re   kind of in between being asleep and conscious by the way I do have individual videos for   all of these teas and herbs which you can find in the description or just on my channel so number   two we have Guayusa and I think I’m pronouncing that right now this is cultivated in Ecuador Peru  and Colombia and in addition to aiding the dream experience many people love guy user because it’s  packed with caffeine so it brings you a positive energy boost in more of a long-term   sustainable way than coffee because it’s not going to give you those jitters it’s also a strong   antioxidant and it helps with the weight loss as well now the interesting thing about guayusa   is that it has a stimulant effect on the brain but it also at the same time has almost a sedative effect so this is why it helps you to lose a dream so well because it keeps you asleep   and tired and sedated while at the same time it stimulates your brain in a certain way   that promotes consciousness and lucidity number three we have valerian now this tea is frequently   used to treat insomnia it’s also been shown to improve anxiety and blood pressure issues as well   it’s also a muscle relaxant so this is the um kind of the reason that it’s a good lucid   dreaming tea is because it helps you sleep it’s a muscle relaxant and it also kind of helps improve   dream recall and makes dreams slightly more colorful so it doesn’t directly induce lucidity   but it does directly help you fall asleep stay asleep and then also remember the dreams you have   number four we have Shatavari now this is kind of like a root herb   and it’s often associated with women’s fertility issues and it’s also used to aid in lactation   with women but it also has kind of properties that help you to relax and it’s frequently used   throughout Nepal India and the Himalayas number five the intellect plant also known as Celestron  paniculatus I think I’m pronouncing that right native to India it can grow as high as   1 800 meters it’s one of the most popular herbs in ayurvedic medicine and the intellect, the plant is   known to improve memory and concentration part of the reason why it’s so helpful for lucid dreaming   and the lucid dreaming experience is that it helps you improve your memory and focus so if   you drink this right before bed it usually takes about a week of continuous use so drinking it   every night before bed for the effects to fully come in okay so it’s kind of a long-term thing   it’s not something you can just drink and then immediately improve your lucid dreams that night   number six and I have no idea how to pronounce this but I’m going to give a try the sshoesroot   and which is spelled with an x x-h-o-s-a indigenous to south africa okay this root is one of the more   obscure herbs it’s not very well known but it usually is formed into a powder and then turned   into a foam so it’s kind of a very weird one it’s not something you can just easily drink in a tea   like you would put a pg tips tea bag in a cup it takes a bit more preparation anyway after   ingesting this foam for three consecutive days the people of the tribes would come together and   share their dream experiences so this one to be honestly, most of you are not going to be able to try   this one it’s hard to get hold of and it’s even harder to prepare number seven a classic mugwort   this is also known as artemisia vulgaris it grows abundantly throughout the world really but you   know it grows in England it’s found around the rest of the world often alongside roads and it   can grow up to three feet when it grows in the wild now mugwort and lucid dreaming have shared   a relationship for a long time I wrote a blog post on my sitehouseoflucid.com I’ve spoken   about this a lot before and mugwort is one of the most easily available lucid dreaming teas online   by the way there will be links to as many of these as you can buy online in my description   of this video or on my site howtolucid.com number eight we have wild asparagus now this is known in Chinese as the heavenly spirit herb commonly used ayurvedic medicine can have profound effects on   a person’s dream world so it’s a very interesting one now it’s said to help lucid dreaming   practitioners have more adventurous dreams so although it won’t directly induce lucidity   it will help those dreams when you do become lucid to be more adventurous exciting and I guess you   could say dangerous feeling number nine is Clary sage now sage is known as an antidepressant   as well as its ability to enhance the dreaming experience but it’s also considered one of the   most powerful healing herbs in the world we have the blue lotus now is a plant known for being   a sedative okay so it’s going to help relax your body and mind and keep you asleep but it’s also   known as an anti-stress herb an anxiety reliever and it also has mild psychoactive properties it’s   said to induce a kind of a pleasurable euphoria when ingested nothing too crazy but just enough   that you notice it now I should mention that all of these herbs and teas are perfectly legal   depending on obviously which country you live however, they’re not regulated by the FDA   if any negative side effects occur you should stop taking them immediately none of this is a medical   recommendation by the way a full disclaimer you should research any of these yourself   and you should take responsibility for anything you do or do not ingest so how can you use tea to   lucid dream the video is not over yet I have many important tips to share with you especially if   you’re considering buying any of these well the lucid dreaming experience is an adventure, okay   most people want to have lucid dreams, and almost everyone you know the vast majority of beginners want the instant magic bullet the quick fix okay but you’ve got to remember that supplements   herbs teas pills and devices don’t answer all of the questions don’t do everything for   you they won’t directly induce a lucid dream you need to do that work yourself as well and I’m sure   many of you who watch this channel kind of know that okay we on this channel lucid dreaming   experience we know that it takes work you can’t do it instantly or you know overnight so it’s   going to take some work and I hope that if you’re watching this video at least you understand that   however, you can use those things lucid dreaming teas are included to make it more likely so here’s   what I would recommend that you do okay pick one of these t’s whichever everyone calls out to you, sounds the most exciting have a look in the description of this video see where you can

Free- weeding, No-tillage, Easy LIFE Gardening by JADAM

 Hello, everyone. This is youngsang cho the founder of JADAM  In today’s episode, I would like to elaborate you how to create the most successful organic garden. As we all know that the global food crisis is at our doorstep.  Therefore, I believe it is time to start our life gardening to protect our food, life, and our family from possible hunger. According to the Global Trend 2040 held by the National Intelligence Service of the United  States, a food riot could occur worldwide within 10 years due to problems such as global warming and food crises. And IMF (International monetary fund)has declared a severe food crisis in 48 countries around the world.  Furthermore, President Biden hosted the first food security conference in 50 years. Despite this dire situation Korea, the world’s fifth-largest food importer,   has the lowest grain self-sufficiency rate in the world.  And The use of pesticides in agricultural products is even more than 10 times that of Western countries. In addition, local counties are in danger of low population due to aging. You might think a growing couple of vegies is enough,  But you have to consider that vegies are also very important food to us. I strongly urge you to actively participate in sustainable organic gardens to become self-sufficient in the upcoming future. Just because I said this doesn’t mean farming will suddenly become easy.  Many people face difficulties they never expected when they start organic gardening. Firstly, there are major problems in organic farming which are weeding, pest, and disease control. Then the next problem is using machinery. And JADAM is here to ease all of these problems. Many People thinks, if the soil is healthy crop will be growing without any pest and disease problems. But the truth of organic farming is far more difficult than what people usually thought of.  Because we are not farming native and wild seeds. The seeds that you get from the store are bred to suit the taste of humans.  Our will and tongue made bananas, and strawberries to be much sweeter, softer, and larger.  And those planted first gen seeds have 0 experience to defend themselves. Therefore, Organic gardening or farming cannot be continued without any pests and disease solutions. JADAM is one of the most well-known companies in the field of self-made natural pesticides. And with the basis of this information, we have shared our journey from soil to fruit on youtube which will upgrade your life of gardening. This is a website that we have been running since 2003.  If you have further questions leave a comment on the bulletin board or you can live a comment below for any question you have. And this is our first book, that Been translated into English.  It has about 700 reviews with close to 5-star ratings and  It is now distributed globally through amazon.com. This is another book that we have published 2 years ago.  It focuses on pest and disease control in detail. Apart from these, we have been working hard to translate the books into 20 different languages.  And those books are going to be uploaded to the google playbook store. So shell we now begin with organic gardening.? The picture you can see is my farm. It is about 650 square meters in size. You can start with 600 square meters, but this is not mandatory. You can start small from 60 to 100 square meters. The size of the land doesn’t mean you are not capable.  Quality matters not quantity.Once you can control   all the pests and disease You will experience happy farming. The size of the land In this picture is about 80 square meters and there are about 40 to 50  different crops. This means in this small size of the land you can have tasteful organic vegetables for your family. After harvest, you can rather dry it to make a powder shake or you can quench the vegetable for future food. It is a one-time harvest in a year but you can have it for a whole year. It is not very necessary to farm such a diverse number of crops.  I farm a lot of kinds because I’d like to test my JADAM natural pesticides on different kinds of crops. And because of my habit of researching, my family also loves to help me farm. This is the tiny house that we built with my friends.  It is tiny but we have made beautiful surroundings.  we built it because we wanted to showcase how Organic gardening could be peaceful and lovable One unique part of this house is that, It has a compost toilet.  Many people worry about the smell. But if you mix 1 % of any starch into sawdust,  There is barely any smell for weeks until it is disposed of. And later you can also collect human feces to make your compost.  Which means you don’t have to rely on purchasing the compost. Collect all the feces in one place for 3 months to make compost out of it.  And because of the starch, there is barely any smell. If you learn how to do all JADAM methods,  I believe you will overcome the difficulties of different crops for organic farming. Not just vegetables, it also means fruit trees and more. And one of the most interesting things is the strawberries.  We all know that strawberries are perennial plants.  But in fact, many farmers pull out once the harvest is completed. However, with the JADAM method, the strawberries are producing for more than 6 years  And every year the yield has increased compared to the past years.  The pest and disease control on strawberries is not that difficult.  And it is our first crop to be harvested in a year. Not just strawberries, We tested the JADAM method on   lettuce, cabbage, and small radish for kimchi, paprika for barbeque and broccoli for salad. And the world’s favorite plant to consume potato also hasn’t had any difficulties to produce. Not just potatoes, we can also farm sweet potatoes and more. Farming cucumber in an open field is known to be a pretty hassle.  But with the JADAM method, you can farm it all. And one of our favorites is the chili pepper. It is the most basic yet, but most confusing plant to grow, and we are the best producer in South Korea. The high yield comes when you be able to master the JADAM technology. And JADAM technology is simple.  So let me tell you how to solve all the issues with JADAM methods. First, the wedding, The problems of weeding come with the plastic mulching that lasts for a year. This means, after harvest, it is mostly destroyed.  And the other problems are the high temperature inside of the mulching then the ventilation of the field. The purpose of mulching is simply for weeding. But the mulching causes a problem due to heat. To solve these issues, we have chosen to use landscape fabric.  Which is a breathable material and lowers the high temperature. Although the price is high, you can use it for more than 10 years.  And some are even much more durable that can last about 20 years. Which is similar to the life span of solar panels. It helps the soil by creating shade on the soil, Which leads to a higher expansion of active microbes inside the soil. As a result, the landscape fabric helps the roots to reach even deeper and makes better soil quality which leads to a high yield. So let me show you how to make the beds first.  Prepare some powder that could indicate the line on the field. The width of the bed should be 1meter 30 centimeters to 1 meter 60 centimeters.  We will first create drainage on each bed.  To create the bed and drainage, we will use the machine just once to protect the soft soil. and this structure is going to be permanent. We are not going to use rotary machines forever after the first construction. Many of us learned that tilling soil is necessary every after harvest and before planting to mix the compost with the soil. But the surface application of the compost is good enough.  You can simply scatter and spread the compost then cover it with the landscape fabric. When you have completed covering the bad with landscape fabric,  Now it is time to use the white marker to make an indication of where you are going to make the hole for the crop.  Use the string then stretch it up and mark the string with the 30-centimeter gap. Then cut the fabric along with the indication. But do not cut it cross because it will loosen all fabric at the end. And before planting germinate your seedlings into leaf mold soil mix water. Diversity of the microbes in the seedling’s roots will prevent possible diseases occur in the future. Then use the narrow hoe to plant the seedlings. Once you have completed planting, the next step is watering.  You can use the irrigation hose to do this but for the vegetables,  It is much more convenient with a sprinkler. Sprinkle water for about 50 minutes with 1-3 days term depending.  And sometimes you can also mix the JMS along with it. As I just mentioned about the no-till and surface application on the bed of the crop.  Let me show you how it is usually done.  After harvest, pull out the fabric then put it on the side.  Once the harvest is completed your soil needs to be reorganized. After that, I scatter the organic compost on the surface of the bed and then spread it firmly with the wreck. Many people think   the soil will harden if it is not tilled,  But by using the JADAM microbes and compost, the soil stays soft enough. Then later cover the bed with the landscape fabric. It should be performed once every harvest,   and in Korea, it happened only twice in a year. One in May and the other one in September. we have uploaded other videos on how to make beds for the fruiting crop.  So you can have a look at that too. Apart from just lettuce and other vegetables,  How are we going to deal with root plants such as radishes or carrots? It will be quite a hassle if we try to plant in between the fabric.  So to plant a root plant, we will just cover the fabric for about 15-20 days before planting.  Then the weed inside will not be able to get photosynthesis,   eventually, the seeds won’t be able to sprout. After 20 days when you uncover the fabric, you could see the bed is clean from the weeds.  Then organize the bed with wreck then create a line with 30 centimeters intervals to plant. You might get worried that the weed grows back again, but root plants such as small radish grow quicker than weeds as it is all eliminated which leaves no space for the weeds to grow because all the nutrients were absorbed by the plant itself. So in this way, the crop will not be going to have nutrient competition with weeds. And the next thing we want to talk about is Organic pest and disease control.  One of The most interesting parts of JADAM’s natural pesticides is that they won’t have negative effects on humans.  It is safe even if you inhale or mistakenly spray it on your face. Moreover, we know that people worry about spiders and bees but it won’t heavily harm bees and spiders. When you start farming, soon you will realize that there are a lot of circumstances with pests and disease problems. However, Don’t try to view the problem with a microscope.  Just simply focus on 2 things in farming. Aphid and Powdery mildew. If you have enough capability to control aphids, means you can control almost all pests. And if you have enough capability to control powdery mildew,   you can be confident in controlling diseases as well. Aphid is the one major problems for farmers but to us, it is just a piece of cake. By utilizing the simple JADAM method on aphid and powdery mildew,  You can control almost all problems. And we have uploaded all the detailed videos on Thrips, anthracnose, and Aphid on youtube. All the method of mixing ratio is also published in our book. We are having a seminar after 3 years, due to covid 19  In the seminar, we are going to release our new recipe that does not need a water softener. Also, we will now prepare for a world tour as well for the next year. Thank you for watching and I will see you guys in the next video.As found on YouTubeHUMAN SYNTHESYS STUDIO 👀🗯 Attention: Have Real Human Spokespeople In Your Videos Saying Exactly What You Want In MINUTES!

6 Signs and Symptoms Of ADHD

 – [Amanda] As a quick disclaimer, this video is made for educational purposes only. And if you have further questions or concerns about ADHD, please consult with your doctor first. With that said, let’s start. I’m sure you’ve heard of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, or ADHD before. It’s a neurodevelopmental disorder marked by an ongoing pattern of inattention or hyperactivity that interferes with your functioning and development. Though ADHD is most commonly diagnosed in childhood, it can also affect adults. Unfortunately, there’s a significant lack of research into adults with ADHD. Many scientists believe that since ADHD is a developmental disorder, it can not develop in adults without demonstrating any signs during their early childhood. But, signs and symptoms of ADHD often persist into adolescence and adulthood. According to the NHS, by age 25, 15% of those diagnosed will still present symptoms. Of those diagnosed, 65% will have symptoms that affect their lives. Here are six signs and symptoms of ADHD to look out for it if you think it’s affecting your life or the life of someone you know. Number one is inattentiveness. One of the hallmark signs of ADHD is inattentiveness. It goes beyond simply not being able to pay attention. It can also look like the inability to focus on a task, finding it hard to pay attention to others, or overlooking details. Know these symptoms can also be caused by stress. Pay special attention if you find your focus shifting often. Number two, hyperfocus. On the opposite side of the spectrum, you can also experience hyperfocus with ADHD. Hyperfocus can cause a person with ADHD to become so engrossed in a task that they forget about everything else going on around them. It’s important to differentiate between hyperfocus versus when you’re in a state of flow. Flow emerges from a state of deep concentration or engagement in something, and being in flow produces a positive feeling, like a sense of accomplishment. Hyperfocus, on the other hand, is a result of an inability to regulate your attention span. With hyperfocus, you can’t always choose what you focus on. You might be doing something important like homework or hyper-focused on scrolling endlessly through Kylie Jenner’s Instagram Feed. Hyperfocus can lead to setbacks in your relationships with friends or partners, or hurdles at work and school. To help with this, you could prioritize your tasks and accomplish them one by one, or ask your family and friends to text you at specific times to help you shift your focus onto more important tasks. Number three is impulsivity. Do you speak out of turn, or do you regularly get yourself into socially inappropriate situations? Do you rush through tasks? And these all are signs of impulsivity in ADHD. It runs a lot deeper than just making split-second decisions. ADHD impulsivity can disrupt your life, and can potentially get you in trouble.  You might others during conversations, making them less inclined to talk to you again, or you can act without much or any consideration of the possible consequences, and this can land you in hot water. Number four is disorganization. We all have hectic lives, but for someone with ADHD, things may feel a bit more chaotic than usual. If you have ADHD, you may have trouble establishing order in your life, and it can be difficult to keep everything in the right place. And adults with ADHD may struggle with these organizational skills. This can include, problems keeping track of tasks, and trouble logically prioritizing them. Number five is mood swings. Because this symptom is present in many other disorders, it’s not an inherent sign of ADHD, but if you’re someone with ADHD you may experience mood swings or irritability. There may be days you feel good and grounded, and other days when you’re in the emotional gutter. You can try writing your emotions down, which can help you keep track of your emotional patterns, and prepare you for the next mood swing. Setting a schedule will help you establish a routine and avoid the possible stress from disorganization. And number six, lack of motivation. Does it seem like you’re doing everything at once, but feel unmotivated to go about your tasks? Lack of motivation is a common symptom of ADHD. A lack of motivation combined with other symptoms like poor organizational skills is problematic when it comes to accomplishing tasks or being engaged at work. There are many ways to help fight a lack of motivation, though. For example, you could break down your chores into manageable tasks, or write down the positive feelings you’re experiencing throughout the day. These techniques can help you find the motivation to finish your tasks. Do you think you might have ADHD, or does someone you know think they could have ADHD? Do you think these signs will help you or a loved one? Go ahead and like and share this video if it helped you, and you think it could help someone else too. The studies and references used are listed in the description below.

Panic Attacks Panic Attacks and Depression – You Shouldn’t Have to Suffer Panic Attacks Today depression and panic attacks a very common for millions of people around the world. On average, fourteen million Americans suffer from major panic attacks and depression. Three million Americans suffer from panic disorder. It is very common for those with major depression to also have panic attacks and elevated anxiety levels. Because panic can mimic other disorders, such as hypoglycemia, heart problems, asthma, and many more serious conditions, sufferers who have not been diagnosed with panic disorder can feel afraid and tentative about their health. If you are having panic attacks, but are unaware, and are also suffering from depression, then the two can aggravate the other until proper treatment is realized. As depression is another difficult illness to properly diagnose and treat, it is imperative to actively find a treatment that works for you. The Results of Panic Attacks and Depression People suffering from depression will feel bored, sad, hopeless, sluggish, alone, and unloved. They may suffer from insomnia and will have elevated anxiety levels. Because of this elevated anxiety, people with panic attacks and depression will often experience panic attacks on a normal basis. When someone has more than one panic attack, they can develop a phobia of the situation, or a fear to return to a specific place. Add in an already depressed view of the world, a worry that others find no worth in you, and you have a recipe for one miserable person. Healthcare professionals are learning that instances of panic attacks and depression coinciding together are more common than thoughts. While not everyone who is depressed will have panic attacks, many people who suffer from panic may very well be depressed. There are certain SSRI antidepressants on the market today that are specifically recommended for use in treating anxiety along with depression. Many people who suffer from depression do not know it. When someone who experiences panic attacks and depression has a panic attack, it can be very frightening. Oftentimes, people in the middle of panic attacks feel like they are going to die, or that they will lose their minds and “go crazy”. This can prevent some from seeking treatment, as they do not understand what is happening to them, and fear the worse. When the panic attack is over and the sufferer feels normal again, they may not think anything of it until it happens again. Many people who suffer from panic attacks do not realize that they are not alone. A person who is experiencing panic attacks and depression may feel especially overwhelmed and will aggravate the situation by worrying and inflating the scenario in their mind. They may feel hopeless to the point where they cannot see how treatment would be effective. Treatment for depression with panic attacks is available and very effective. Through any combination of medication, cognitive-behavior therapy,y and relaxation techniques, sufferers can gain control of their lives back. The first thing you always want to do is see your doctor and discuss the symptoms and trouble that you are having. Your doctor will get you on your way to resolving your trouble.

1 Minute Weight Loss, fairsandfestivals.net

By:

  1 Minute Weight Loss – Forget the exercise regimes   For years, you were taught that “dieting” and busting your butt at the gym several times per week were the only REAL ways to get fit. Well, there is scientific evidence that suggests that suggests continuous strenuous exercise can cause inflammation in your muscles, which can actually slow down the process of shedding those difficult-to-lose pounds. If you have a few minutes, watch this controversial video that reveals how you only truly need a few minutes per day to lose weight.   LeRoy M∅c∅!   MARC-ALMOND-THE-DAYS-OF-PEARLY-SPENCER-HOLOGRAPHIC-CD-533172   Is it Possible to Lose Weight With Just 1 Minute Per Day?   There is no doubt that High-Intensity Interval Training H.I.I.T. is a trend worth watching in the exercise world. So many people talk about it these days and there is a buzz in all types of media. It is also sometimes called the one-minute weight loss routine because you alternate those periods of all-out activity with work that is at about 50 percent. Here we will explore what people are saying about H.I.I.T. in terms of effectiveness and the results that they have obtained. ᶜˡⁱᶜᵏ ᵗʰᵉ ˢⁿᵒʷᵐᵃⁿ ☃ In “Reader’s Digest”, they have some before and after pictures with people doing these workouts https://hop.clickbank.net/?affiliate=flywait&vendor=1minweight&pid=text&pop=1. If you look at the pictures, the results seem to speak for themselves. Some of the participants toned down, and some of them look like they lost a person. Most of these people seem to have done H.I.I.T. the right way. They talk about boot camp, which is notorious for getting in shape. Others regale their group fitness sessions. With exercises such as walking lunges and medicine ball slams, there’s no wonder that these people were about to shed pounds. Another popular exercise cited was the suicide run. This is where you run as fast as you can for certain amounts of time. This may bring back memories of racing in the gym in school to certain lines, touching them, then racing back. That early invention of intervals has fully caught on in the adult world now. Even a personal trainer in the story used it to lose a dress size. People 😁 who tout success with this regime seem to get help to ensure that they are doing it right. However, if you are doing it on your own, then studies show that too much of a good thing can be bad. Aside from the build-up of too much lactic acid, which can lead to muscle fatigue, you might also be putting your body into fight or flight mode. You might also be releasing too much cortisol, which can be detrimental to your body. For this reason, researchers suggest that thirty to forty minutes a week of high intensity is the maximum. And their definition of high intensity is that where you work at 90% above your heart rate. If you bump it down to 85%, then forty to fifty minutes is your new allowance. For this reason, you should be careful about how much high intensity you are actually doing. If you tend to be the type of person who has no holds barred, you could actually be going too hard. Another critical component to the success of H.I.I.T., according to the experts, is your actual recovery time. This is actually another important part of this workout. The recovery time is when all the good stuff happens, and circumventing this can actually impede your results. Some people want to do the 1-minute weight loss routine thirty times in one session. This is fine, as long as you don’t reach H.I.I.T. the rest of the week. Usually, experts recommend a day off of a certain muscle group to allow it to recover. If you’re doing intervals, you could follow the same maxim. There’s no hard and fast rule except that you shouldn’t overdose on the one-minute weight loss routine in the same week. And after you’ve tried a H.I.I.T. workout, ᶜˡⁱᶜᵏ ᵖˡᵉᵃˢᵉ ㋡ you might not even want to. The suicide run might have you feeling a little sore next door. Make sure for this reason that you warm up and cool down before each workout. You’ve probably seen your favorite YouTuber or celebrity slamming that medicine ball on their Instagram or in their videos. Your view of the kettlebell has probably forever changed- that is if you even had one before. But actually delving into this workout will require a trainer, a class, or boot camp if you want to really get an introduction for yourself. You also might want to invest in a Polar A370 watch with an H10 chest strap or something of that nature if you want to really measure your heart rate. And then, get ready to immerse yourself in this workout revolution.

What Coronavirus Stress Is Doing To Your Brain And Body

 Abby Tang: How are you feeling? Graham Flanagan: I played that song, ♪ You had a bad day ♪ Alex Appolonia: I wrote down some points because my brain is like mush lately. Fran Lam: Sad, worried, stressed. Victoria Barranco: Physically, like all of the negative emotions. Abby: This probably sounds super familiar, and that’s because a lot of us are feeling stressed right now. But this isn’t normal stress. This is pandemic stress, and it is messing with our brains in a particular way. When you get stressed, it triggers a chain reaction that starts in the amygdala, your emotional-processing headquarters. Your eyes and ears send info to the amygdala, and it determines if what you’re seeing and hearing is stressful. If it is, it sends a signal to your command center, the hypothalamus. It’s in charge of getting the word out to the rest of your body by way of the autonomic nervous system. The adrenal glands get the message first and pump adrenaline into your bloodstream. Your heart beats faster; you breathe more rapidly because your muscles need extra blood and your brain needs extra oxygen. They’re preparing to react to whatever threat is causing your stress response. All of this happens in the blink of an eye. It’s like how people can jump out of the way of a car without really thinking about it. The emotional amygdala overrides your prefrontal cortex, the part of your brain where all the logic happens. So you don’t get a chance to think things through; you just react. Once the threat dies down, though, the parasympathetic nervous system takes over and returns all those heightened reactions to normal. But if the brain still detects danger after the initial adrenaline rush, the hypothalamus sends out another message to the rest of the HPA axis. This triggers another series of hormones that lead to the release of cortisol, which signals to the body that it needs to stay on high alert and keep pumping out stress hormones. Right now for a lot of us, that threat is still very much alive. The amygdala is still overriding the prefrontal cortex, which is in charge of decision-making and planning. So those feelings of forgetfulness and tiredness, they’re likely a product of this stress response that won’t turn off. Stress hormones and the accompanying bodily responses are super helpful in the short term, but our bodies aren’t meant to function in this heightened state for weeks or months at a time. And over time, your brain will burn out. When it does, it can lead to allostatic load, the cumulative wear, and tear that happens to your body when you’re dealing with chronic stress. A high, prolonged cortisol level can mess with a lot of stuff. It’s even been seen to decrease the volume of your hippocampus, the area responsible for learning and memory, and a reduced hippocampus is more often seen in people with depression than those without. So all this is to say that the extra stress is probably not doing your brain or your body any favors. And humans are historically bad at making decisions when they don’t know what’s going to happen? So, what can you do to reduce the allostatic load? Reduce stress. Eating well, exercising, and maintaining a regular sleep schedule cannot be overlooked. Exercising alone can reduce stress hormones, even with just a 20-minute walk. And a different way of thinking could also help us: an idea called model-free learning. It’s trial and error. Instead of basing your risk assessment on similar examples from the past or envisioning future scenarios, you just take it one step at a time. This way, you reassess and update your estimate of what’s happening and how to prepare. We’re dealing with a new virus, constantly changing policies, and likely a completely different schedule and maybe even environment. Our brain is on high alert at all times to identify potential threats. This means that even if you’re spending most of your time laying around, your brain isn’t, so try not to beat yourself up for feeling tired or fuzzy, or unmotivated. You just don’t need anything else to stress about. Now that you know all of this, how are you feeling? Alex: To be honest, I do still feel the same. Fran: I think I’m feeling a bit better after watching it. Victoria: It’s my body is exhausted from feeling things and being under stress all day, all the time. Graham: Whenever I feel that allostatic load starting to weigh down on me, you know, I can put a name on it, a face on it, and it makes it a lot easier to deal with it.As found on YouTubeAnimationStudio ꆛ☣ꐕ Be The “Middle Man” And Profit With AnimationStudio Agency License.

How to Reduce Stress | How Stress Affects Your Body | Stress Management Tips – ChetChat

 my head is aching my legs are shaking I can’t sleep   studies keep piling up in a heap of restlessness and irritability prevails I’m worried will I fail lack of sleep just mounts oh I’m so stressed out we’re living through stressful times   and stress has become our constant companion but do you know what exactly happens inside   our body when we are stressed in today’s In the video we are going to talk about three things   one is the science of stress in our brain and body two five very effective solutions to beat stress   and finally two bonus tips right at the end so don’t get stressed and let’s get going hey everyone this is Chetna and you’re watching chet chat there are two kinds of stress one is   use stress or good stress this gives us an extra a burst of energy and focus when we are playing a   competitive sport or giving a presentation and two the second is distress or bad stress this is the   continuous stress which makes us feel burdened how stress affects the brain now you’ve perhaps   been stressed for the past few months thinking about your future or even your family’s health, this emotion of stress activates the hypothalamus pituitary-adrenal axis the hpa axis the   hypothalamus via the pituitary glands activate the adrenal glands which are situated atop the kidneys   in response the adrenal glands secrete a hormone called cortisol the stress hormone the body thinks   of this as a warning sign as though we’re about to get eaten up by a bear the cortisol first raises   the activity level in the amygdala the fear center of the brain this gives rise to feelings of anger   this is the reason why we tend to lash out when we are stressed if you want to know by the way more   about the signs of anger then watch this video and I will share a link for you in the description box   below have you ever found yourself saying I’m so stressed I can’t think straight while the   amygdala is working overtime cortisol travels to its next destination the pre-frontal cortex   located at the front of our head’s prefrontal cortex is the thinking and planning part of the   brain excess cortisol sustained for long periods of time causes this region to shrink thereby   blurring our rational thinking now another thing What happens when we are very worked up that we   can’t seem to remember where we’ve kept our phone or our keys even if it’s right in front of us   let’s see why that happens the cortisol now reaches the hippocampus the memory center of   our brain excess cortisol lowers the production of brain cells in this region that is why we   tend to forget everything we’ve studied if we feel very stressed out during an exam   now where is this cortisol reached in his journey to the very cells of the brain too much stress will slow down your response systems have as well seen someone looking very numb   after they’ve encountered major stress but the worst damage of stress is that over time   it can change our cell structure right down to our DNA shortens the telomeres the shoelace tips of   chromosomes which measure a cell’s age do you know the shorter the telomeres become the shorter their lifespan now not all stress is bad remember we spoke about eustress or good stress   and the experiment conducted by the University of Wisconsin shows that moderate amounts of cortisol   can improve memory while no stress which is zero milligrams of cortisol or too much stress   which is about 40 milligrams of cortisol will not help you remember what you’ve studied or   where you’ve kept your phone but just the right amount of stress about 20 milligrams of cortisol   will help you remember faster so be alert but not burnt out before we talk about how stress   affects the body I would like to give a shout out to only ladies outfits whose amazing message   got a huge number of likes from you and if you want a shout-out in my next video   then leave me a comment below with the hashtag chet chatters now you must be thinking that if   all this is going on inside the brain how am i feeling stress in my body you’re right to stress affects all body systems and let’s see how to remember that the body is still thinking of   us being attacked by a bear so it believes that the muscles need oxygen to fight or to run now   an amazing sequence of events takes place the the heart pumps faster increasing blood pressure   causing hypertension this huge volume of blood starts going through our lungs to get oxygenated   which means we start panting and getting breathless to inhale more oxygen now imagine   our arteries like pipes which suddenly have high speed blood gushing inside them the pipes could   burst so the body begins to thicken these arteries by accumulating a sticky substance called plaque   which in turn attracts cholesterol and fats extra thick walls mean that sometimes the openings of   the arteries become too narrow and now the heart has to work doubly hard to push blood through them   and all these blocked arteries could lead to heart attacks did you know that over 60   patients suffering from irritable bowel syndrome have psychiatric disorders and chronic anxiety   another thing you might have noticed people tend to stress eat before an important occasion you’ll   see that since the muscles require quick oxygen cortisol increases our appetite and signals the   body to consume more energy-rich food like carbs the problem is that there is no actual bear so   we are neither running nor fighting and all these sugars get accumulated as belly fat but don’t get   all stressed out hearing this take a deep breath because I have some tried and tested methods   to bust your stress keep calm and meditate on mindful meditation and yoga regulate breathing reduce heart rate and decrease cortisol levels in our body stress causes us to breathe faster   so we are forcing our body to slow down and do some reps to de-stress exercise also reduces the levels   of the body’s stress hormones adrenaline and cortisol stimulates and produces endorphins   the body is a natural painkiller and mood elevator so try some home workouts or go for a walk or   jog in the fresh air surrender and acceptance this is my secret sauce to remain stress-free one big cause of stress is us trying to control In every aspect of our lives practice acceptance   surrender and gratitude together and you will experience the calm flow through your veins and good   vibes only you might have heard that confidence is the key well it’s the key to unlocking   some stress people with higher self-esteem are said to perform better because they have lower   cortisol responses to acute stress so they belief in yourself and repeat I can do it and if you want   to know how to increase your self-confidence then check out this video and I’ll drop a link for you   below headphones in stress out listening to your favorite tracks especially mellow music have a   beneficial effect on our body it slows the pulse and the heart rate down it lowers blood pressure   and decreases the levels of stress hormones and now for the bonus tip dark chocolate, this is my   favorite one eating a bar of dark chocolate

Lec 3 : Stress acting at a point- Stress tensor

 So, welcome back, this is the next lecture on stress tensors. So in the last lecture, we have categorically seen what is Cauchy’s stress, sigma.   And we have seen that the definition of sigma indicates what is the internal force that gets developed within a plane or a body at a point due to some action of external forces.   Now, what is sigma? In fact sigma is a stress tensor. So, Cauchy stress can be considered a tensor. So, now we are going to define a new term what is known as a tensor. If you want to study or if you want to do modeling in continuum mechanics,   as the complexity of the problem increases, it is always convenient to define what is known as a tensor. And we have already stated stress is a tensor quantity. Now, what is a tensor?   We know what are scalars, and we know what are vectors. So tensor is also a similar kind of quantity. So why tensor, because it is very convenient to express stress as a tensor.  In short stress itself is a tensor. In simple terms, we can say that tensor can be defined as a quantity with magnitude and multiple spatial directions.   So, possibly you will think like what is the difference between a tensor and a vector.   Vector also has a magnitude and a direction, but we will see that vector has magnitude,   but it will have only one direction whereas in the case of tensor multiple directions are there.  So that is the essential difference and tensor is a more general term.   And the subsets of the tensor are scalar, vector, and any other tensor of higher order. So different tensors which are popularly used are yes, that is what I told the first one is scalar the simplest tensor is scalar and it is called zero-order tensor. A quantity which has only magnitude and zero direction, scalar we all of us know that it does not have any direction it has only magnitude.  So we call it zero direction. And zero order tensor which is a scalar that has three raised to zero, where zero represents the number of directions. So three raises to zero are equal to one element and that is true, it is merely a number that shows the magnitude. Scalar is a zero-order tensor. The second one is a vector, which is the first-order tensor. A vector is a quantity,   which has magnitude and one direction you can see that vector has only one direction.  Accordingly, the number of elements will be three raised to one which is equal to three elements.   So if you have an x y z axis you have a vector in three different directions. So that is possible.   So that is what it means it has three elements. So it has one direction every vector is associated with only one direction. And it has three raised to one which is three elements and specifically, Cauchy stress is known as a second order tensor.  Why does Cauchy stress sigma have magnitude and two directions? Now, what are these two directions?   Now we will see specifically how these two directions come into the picture when you define a stress component and it is very easy also if you remember Cauchy stress, we represent it as sigma xx or sigma xy. So there are two symbols associated and that is why it is always associated with two directions it is associated with which plane it acts, which means the normal to that particular plane. It is also dependent on, which direction that particular traction acts. So we will discuss that a bit later, only to specify here is Cauchy stress is a second-order tensor. It has magnitude and it has two directions.   So this is a second-order tensor and it has three squares equal to nine elements which we have already seen in the Cauchy stress tensor. There are nine elements and the second order tensor linearly maps to vectors that also we have seen. We have seen that t is sigma transpose of n. So it linearly transforms to vectors, that is Cauchy’s formula. Now, some aspects of tensor to be very specific, may not be useful, but then this is important to understand the tensor. Let us say two, there are two vectors u and v a tensor T is a second order tensor if it linearly maps vector v to u as can be shown here and the second order tensor satisfies the properties of linear transformation. So this is what has been written, t maps v to u   or there is a linear mapping of v to u. If you compare this with Cauchy’s formula, it is more or less the same thing that is how we define The Cauchy stress tensor is a second-order tensor.   Having said that, now the next job is to interpret the components of the Cauchy stress tensor. We know that there are nine elements. Now, what are these nine elements? What does it represent? So, for that, we need to define the Cartesian coordinate. So you have a Cartesian coordinate x y   and z. And to make it simple a control volume is also shown,   control volume is a very common terminology that is used in continuum mechanics or any other form of mechanics. The con this control volume is not required, but to make things simple and for one to understand it has been shown. So we have a Cartesian coordinate x y z,   this is positive x direction, this is positive y and this is positive z which is also important here. So you can consider a positive x plane, now x is an axis which is meant by x plane. It means the plane on which x direction is the normal to that plane that is what is written here the plane whose normal is in the positive x direction. So it is called the positive x plane.  So what will be the negative x plane? The negative x plane will be here because the outward normal to this plane is in the negative x direction. So this is the negative x plane.   So you need to understand this very carefully. Consider positive x planes,   so we are talking about this particular plane. That is a positive x plane because why because normal to this particular plane x this is the y z plane, this is y, this is z. So this plane is y z plane.  Now for this y z plane, the normal is in the direction of x. So that is what it means.   So x plane means, positive x plane means, y z plane which is shown here so, positive x,   negative x plane both are there. Now we will come back to Cauchy’s formula and cauchys stress sigma. So now, the normal vector to x plane¬ this positive x direction.   Please understand the normal vector to x plane¬. So this is the x plane.  The normal is x. So you can easily write what is the normal vector. So this is the normal vector. So for the x direction, it is one zero.   So n T is given in this manner and similarly, for y it will be zero one zero, and for z zero one.   So normal vector to x plane is defined that is n transpose is given.   Now, what are the components of traction vector tx, ty, and tz? You already have this to be,   that is tx, ty, tz is equal to sigma and n. So if you substitute the value of n that is for positive x plane one zero here, so it will be one zero, and do the matrix operation,   you will see that t x is equal to sigma xx, ty will be equal to sigma xy. So this is sigma xx,   sigma xi. So ty will be equal to sigma x y and t z is equal to sigma x z. So what does it mean,   it means that the components which are present in cauchys stress tensor are components of traction vector in a given direction. So   if you see, you can see that sigma xx is the x component of traction vector on x plane. So there are two references which are coming and that is why we said that there are two directions.   It is the x component that is the traction vector in the x direction and it is acting on the x plane.   So there are two things which are coming. Similarly, you have sigma xy. Sigma XY is the y component of the traction vector acting on the x plane. Similarly, you have the z component of the traction vector acting on the x plane. Similarly, other components of Cauchy stress tensor can be identified based on   Cauchy’s formula. So that is what is the meaning of each of the terms which are present in the   Cauchy stress, it is nothing but the components of the traction vector acting in a specific direction. So, the component of the Cauchy stress tensor, in general, is sigma ij, it is the j component of the traction vector it can be x, it can be y, and it can be z. So it is a j   component of traction vector acting on the ith plane. So the first index I show which plane it is associated with. Which plane means, which is the normal and j   is the direction of that component, direction of the component of traction vector.  So i is the plane on which traction is considered, and j is the direction in which the traction component is considered.  So we can see the overall representation of the Cauchy stress tensor.   So first is stresses acting on x plane. Now which is the x plane,   this is the x plane. So there are two x planes, this is negative x and this is positive x. So what are the stresses which are acting,   we have sigma xx in the direction of x? So, all of them are acting on x plane.  Then we have sigma XY and sigma xz. Similarly, on the other side of another plane which is a negative x   plane we have sigma XY, sigma xz, and sigma xx. It is identical but it is on the other side.   Then we have stressed on y plane. Now what is meant by y plane, a plane with y direction as the normal. So you are talking about this and this. So you have positive y and this is negative y.  Similarly, in this, you have sigma yy, sigma yy, which is the direction, in the direction of y and you have sigma y x, sigma yz,   similarly sigma y x and sigma yz. Then we have stresses acting on the z plane,   what are the stresses acting on the z plane, and what is the z plane, this is the positive z plane and this is the negative z plane and this stress is acting as sigma zz,   sigma zx, sigma zy. Similarly, here also you have sigma zz, sigma zx, and sigma zy.   So these are the representation of the components of Cauchy stress on a given control volume.  So, all these stress components are acting at a point. Now we need to keep in mind that I   have shown a control volume in the figure, and that is only for understanding how the stresses are oriented. Otherwise, it does not serve any purpose. We need to still understand that whatever stress components are there in the Cauchy stress tensor, it is acting at a point and the control volume, the cuboid is shown only to indicate the plane on which it is acting.  So that’s that notion we should not forget. So it is stress acting at a point.   Now having said that, we need to now define some sort of sign convention of the Cauchy stress tensor. So the given sign conventions are the traction components on the positive plane. So now we have already marked what is a positive plane. So the traction component on the positive plane acting in the positive direction means the direction of x y z which is in the positive direction, so is positive. So you have a positive plane and the traction component is acting in the positive direction, so it is positive. Similarly, if you have a positive plane and the traction component is acting in a negative direction, so it is negative.  For the negative plane, if the plane is negative and the traction component is acting in a negative direction, so it is positive. And the final case is negative plane traction component direction is a positive direction, it is negative. So this is one sign convention, you can see that numerous sign conventions are available, and uh one may use them at his convenience, but if you follow one sign convention, you need to follow it throughout.  So this is one convenient way of uh defining sign convention, there are assigned conventions that are available based on movement also, and sometimes it may be difficult to understand. So this is very easy and very easy to define as well, one example is given here. So this is the positive x plane,   and the stresses acting are sigma xx, sigma XY and sigma xz. If you consider sigma xx,   this is acting on a positive x plane. And sigma xx is in acting in the positive x direction. So that is why it is positive, similarly to sigma XY and sigma xz. Now consider the case of the negative x plane, if you consider sigma XY, this is a negative plane, negative x plane whereas, this is acting in the positive y direction. So negative plane positive y direction,   so it is negative. Similarly, all the stress component signs can be assigned. So this is the sign convention of the Cauchy stress tensor. So what is the summary that we have understood till now? There are three normal components or normal stresses,   sigma xx, sigma yy, and sigma oz. You can see that in this figure, you have sigma x x,   sigma yy, and sigma zz, these are acting in the same direction as that normal. So there are three normal components or normal stresses sigma xx, sigma yy, sigma zz or it is merely stated as sigma x, sigma y, sigma z which is a common terminology,   which we normally use in mechanics. There are six shear components or shear stresses to be very specific all indices were I not equal to j, here it is I equal to,   here I not equal to j. So these are shear components of traction or shear stresses,   it is written either in sigma form or in tau form. Cauchy stress tensor a second-order tensor quantifies the internal force distribution in a body at a given position and time corresponding to a given deformation. Why time is important is because we are considering the condition corresponding to a given deformation.   And internal forces, which that gets developed followed the basic laws of mechanics. Now one particular aspect of why stress at a point that information is needed is to, define the equilibrium equation. So it is an application of why you need to know stress at a point. Now stress at a point is very important to define the equilibrium equation as we have seen in the beginning, you have seen that certain requirements need to be satisfied like the equilibrium condition, the compatibility condition, and so on.  Now for defining the equilibrium condition, we need to specify the equilibrium equation. I will not go into the derivation of this equilibrium equation it is very basic and is mostly seen by most of you. So by considering a given control volume, the equilibrium equation can be represented as follows. And you can see that the components of equilibrium equations are the stress tensor components, the only new term is gamma. Where gamma is a self-weight of the gravity stress which acts in the z-direction or the vertical direction and to be very specific stresses are in terms of total stresses in this particular equation, it is invariably necessary to know stress at a point for defining equilibrium condition. Now based on equilibrium,   we can say that tau yx is equal to tau XY, tau yz is equal to zy and tau zx is equal to tau xz.  Therefore, the stress tensor is represented by six independent stress components,   there are nine components in the Cauchy stress tensor just because of this condition,   we have six independent stress components, and they are three normal stresses, sigma x, sigma y,   sigma z, and three shear stresses tau XY, tau yz and tau Zx, where tau XY is equal to tau yx.   So this is what it is. So that is how it boils down to six independent stress components. So the final summary of what we learned in this particular lecture is Cauchy stress, sigma is a second-order tensor. The element of stress tensor represents components of traction acting on three orthogonal planes according to a given Cartesian coordinate.   Sigma I j means j component of traction vector acting on the ith plane. Stress tensor sigma has three normal stress components and six shear stress components. But based on equilibrium,   there are six independent stresses three normal and three shear stresses.  All the stress components are acting at a point that is very relevant and which is very important. The components of sigma depend on the coordinate axis,   please note here as such sigma is not dependent on the coordinate axis,   but the components of sigma, I mean to say sigma x, sigma xy those are the components or the traction vector components, they are dependent on the coordinate axis. So there is a distinction that needs to be very clear, one should not get confused with sigma as a whole and the components of sigma. Sigma as a whole is not dependent on any axis,   but the components of sigma keep changing, but the overall sigma representation of internal force remains the same depending on the reference axis, and the component’s magnitude value keeps changing.   Stress tensor sigma at any point in the body defines the internal force distribution of a body.   So this is all about this particular lecture, which we will see in the next lecture.As found on YouTubeAnimationStudio ꆛ☣ꐕ Be The “Middle Man” And Profit With AnimationStudio Agency License.

How stress affects your body – Sharon Horesh Bergquist

 Cramming for a test? Trying to get more done than you have time to do? Stress is a feeling we all experience when we are challenged or overwhelmed. But more than just an emotion, stress is a hardwired physical response that travels throughout your entire body. In the short term, stress can be advantageous, but when activated too often or too long, your primitive fight or flight stress response not only changes your brain but also damages many of the other organs and cells throughout your body. Your adrenal gland releases the stress hormones cortisol, epinephrine, also known as adrenaline, and norepinephrine. As these hormones travel through your bloodstream, they easily reach your blood vessels and heart. Adrenaline causes your heart to beat faster and raises your blood pressure, over time causing hypertension. Cortisol can also cause the endothelium, or inner lining of blood vessels, to not function normally. Scientists now know that this is an early step in triggering the process of atherosclerosis or cholesterol plaque build-up in your arteries. Together, these changes increase your chances of a heart attack or stroke. When your brain senses stress, it activates your autonomic nervous system. Through this network of nerve connections, your big brain communicates stress to your enteric, or intestinal nervous system. Besides causing butterflies in your stomach, this brain-gut connection can disturb the natural rhythmic contractions that move food through your gut, leading to irritable bowel syndrome, and can increase your gut sensitivity to acid, making you more likely to feel heartburn. Via the gut’s nervous system, stress can also change the composition and function of your gut bacteria, which may affect your digestive and overall health. Speaking of digestion, does chronic stress affect your waistline? Well, yes. Cortisol can increase your appetite. It tells your body to replenish your energy stores with energy-dense foods and carbs, causing you to crave comfort foods. High levels of cortisol can also cause you to put on those extra calories as visceral or deep belly fat. This type of fat doesn’t just make it harder to button your pants.  It is an organ that actively releases hormones and immune system chemicals called cytokines that can increase your risk of developing chronic diseases, such as heart disease and insulin resistance. Meanwhile, stress hormones affect immune cells in a variety of ways. Initially, they help prepare to fight invaders and heal after injury, but chronic stress can dampen function of some immune cells, make you more susceptible to infections, and slow the rate you heal. Want to live a long life? You may have to curb your chronic stress. That’s because it has even been associated with shortened telomeres, the shoelace tip ends of chromosomes that measure a cell’s age. Telomeres cap chromosomes to allow DNA to get copied every time a cell divides without damaging the cell’s genetic code, and they shorten with each cell division. When telomeres become too short, a cell can no longer divide and it dies. As if all that weren’t enough, chronic stress has even more ways it can sabotage your health, including acne, hair loss, sexual dysfunction, headaches, muscle tension, difficulty concentrating, fatigue, and irritability. So, what does all this mean for you? Your life will always be filled with stressful situations. But what matters to your brain and entire body is how you respond to that stress. If you can view those situations as challenges you can control and master, rather than as insurmountable threats, you will perform better in the short run and stay healthy in the long run.As found on YouTubeAnimationStudio ꆛ☣ꐕ Be The “Middle Man” And Profit With AnimationStudio Agency License.

The psychology of post-traumatic stress disorder – Joelle Rabow Maletis

 Many of us will experience some kind of trauma during our lifetime. Sometimes, we escape with no long-term effects. But for millions of us, those experiences linger, causing symptoms like flashbacks, nightmares, and negative thoughts that interfere with everyday life. This phenomenon, called post-traumatic stress disorder, or PTSD, isn’t a personal failing; rather, it’s a treatable malfunction of certain biological mechanisms that allow us to cope with dangerous experiences. To understand PTSD, we first need to understand how the brain processes a wide range of ordeals, including the death of a loved one, domestic violence, injury or illness, abuse, rape, war, car accidents, and natural disasters. These events can bring on feelings of anger and helplessness, which activate the brain’s alarm system, known as the “fight-flight-freeze” response. When this alarm sounds, the hypothalamic, pituitary, and adrenal systems, known as the HPA axis, work together to send signals to the autonomic nervous system. That’s the network that communicates with adrenal glands and internal organs to help regulate functions like heart rate, digestion, and respiration. These signals start a chemical cascade that floods the body with several different stress hormones, causing physiological changes that prepare the body to defend itself. Our heart rate speeds up, breathing quickens, and muscles tense. Even after a crisis is over, escalated levels of stress hormones may last for days, contributing to jittery feelings, nightmares, and other symptoms. For most people, these experiences disappear within a few days to two weeks as their hormone levels stabilize. But a small percentage of those who experience trauma have persistent problems —sometimes vanishing temporarily only to resurface months later. We don’t completely understand what’s happening in the brain, but one theory is that the stress hormone cortisol may be continuously activating the “fight-flight-freeze” response while reducing overall brain functioning, leading to several negative symptoms. These symptoms often fall into four categories: intrusive thoughts, like dreams and flashbacks, avoiding reminders of the trauma, negative thoughts and feelings, like fear, anger, and guilt, and “reactive” symptoms like irritability and difficulty sleeping. Not everyone has all these symptoms or experiences them to the same extent and intensity. When problems last more than a month, PTSD is often diagnosed. Genetics, ongoing overwhelming stress, and many risk factors like preexisting mental illnesses or lack of emotional support, likely play a role in determining who will experience PTSD. But the underlying cause is still a medical mystery. A major challenge of coping with PTSD is sensitivity to triggers and physical and emotional stimuli that the brain associates with the original trauma. These can be everyday sensations that aren’t inherently dangerous but prompt powerful physical and emotional reactions.  For example, the smell of a campfire could evoke the memory of being trapped in a burning house. For someone with PTSD, that memory activates the same neurochemical cascade as the original event. That then stirs up the same feelings of panic and helplessness as if they’re experiencing the trauma all over again. Trying to avoid these triggers, which are sometimes unpredictable, can lead to isolation. That can leave people feeling invalidated, ignored, or misunderstood like a pause button has been pushed on their lives while the rest of the world continues around them. But, there are options. If you think you might be suffering from PTSD, the first step is an evaluation with a mental health professional who can direct you toward the many resources available. Psychotherapy can be very effective for PTSD, helping patients better understand their triggers. And certain medications can make symptoms more manageable, as can self-care practices, like mindfulness and regular exercise. What if you notice signs of PTSD in a friend or family member? Social support, acceptance, and empathy are key to helping and recovery. Let them know you believe their account of what they’re experiencing, and that you don’t blame them for their reactions. If they’re open to it, encourage them to seek evaluation and treatment. PTSD has been called “the hidden wound” because it comes without outward physical signs. But even if it’s an invisible disorder, it doesn’t have to be a silent one.As found on YouTubeAnimationStudio ꆛ☣ꐕ Be The “Middle Man” And Profit With AnimationStudio Agency License.
