#it will improve your life. it's good for your brain. you need enrichment

[letters-to-lgbt-kids]

My dear lgbt+ kids, 

You have heard it before: if you feel like your life sucks and you’ll never be truly happy - take a shower. Have a snack. Drink a glass of water. Stretch gently. Take a nap. 

Basically, take care of your very basic physical needs and you may find that your emotional and mental well-being improves as well. 

This definitely falls under the category of advice that sounds ridiculously oversimplified, especially when you are right in the middle of a bad mood - and of course it needs to come with the caveat that this won’t cure depression. But even if your low mood is a symptom of depression (or another mental illness), taking care of your physical needs will help stabilize your mood and is a good foundation for further treatment. 

But in this letter, I don’t actually want to discuss that. There are already plenty great tumblr posts doing so. I just want to remind you of another basic need after water, food, sleep, movement and hygiene: Enrichment. 

Enrichment means stimulation of the brain, and you may know this term in the context of people working with animals. Dog owners, zookeepers etc. try to stimulate the animal’s brain by offering them physical or mental exercise. For example, a dog may be encouraged to search for hidden treats! 

You are not a dog, but your brain also needs stimulation. Being understimulated easily leads to feeing unfulfilled and unhappy! 

A really easy way to provide enrichment for yourself is to just change something small about your daily environment or schedule, or try a new activity! Some simple ideas: 

You don’t necessarily need to buy new furniture or even new decorations to change your environment. You could just switch around some pieces you already own! 

You could take a different route home from school/work, go to a different grocery store or even just sit in a different place in your own home than you usually do 

You could try a new recipe, prepare a favorite food in a different way or buy a snack you haven’t tried before 

You could try to move in new ways. That could mean trying a new workout routine but also just doing a silly little dance to your favorite song in your own room! 

These things sound too exhausting? That’s fully possible - being understimulated can, ironically, drastically lower your motivation! If that’s the case, remember that tiny baby steps still help! You don’t need to start with anything too exhausting. It can be something quick like:

change the lockscreen of your phone if yours has been the same for a long time

challenge yourself to read a random article on Wikipedia 

listen to a song, but pick one from outside of “your” genres 

Slowly working your way up to bigger changes can make it easier. 

With all my love, 

Your Tumblr Dad

As a queer drawn to the faith and trying to deal with the messiness of entering into everything, I've been trying hard to read more of the Book of Mormon because I only have a very vague understanding of it's Whole Deal, but executive dysfunction, ADHD, and honestly, a million other excuses are making it very difficult. Are there any good resources for walking through the fundamentals? Childish but I feel like I'm disappointing the Lord if I'm not more on top of this.

Hi anon! I totally get it and yes, I can think of a few ideas!

If you're looking for ways to understand the BoM (or even just general doctrine) from more of a bird's eye view:

I hope you don't find this silly, but when I was a kid, the church published an illustrated children's version of the BoM that's obviously way quicker to flip through. It might be harder for you to find those exact editions I read as a kid if you don't have ready access to a church library, BUT I found this!! It's (almost) the ENTIRE BoM illustrated and summarized and it's online!

Looks like they put out videos too that summarize the BoM beginning to end. Here's a link to the video series. I haven't seen these, so I can't vouch for them, but they might be helpful! Similarly, there's a BoM in 60 seconds video you might find helpful.

If you'd benefit from a schedule, the church is currently studying the BoM in sunday school! The past few years, we've been using a study guide called Come Follow Me with weekly assigned reading chapters. I've actually been working on posts about CFM as they relate to queer mormon theology, but I haven't had much posted yet since I've been having a rocky start to 2024. As things improve, I'll be able to hopefully even establish a schedule on this blog!

I'm not sure if missionary lessons is something you're interested in at this point, and it's definitely not something you ever need to do, but the missionary lessons themselves are a pretty good doctrine intro if you're looking for just Mormonism 101 in a digestible way. The missionaries teach out a book called Preach My Gospel, which is available right here. You'll be interested in the lessons, which are found in Chapter 3. If you just scroll down, you'll see some of the links are labeled Lesson instead of Chapter--just click on those bad boys. And if you have any doctrinal questions, I'm always MORE than happy to talk about the church! You'll probably get a faster answer DMing me personally at @logans-mormon-blog, but I'll always answer asks here as soon as time permits.

If you're looking for easier ways to finish the BoM from beginning to end:

The BoM on tape. The church has an audiobook version available on the Gospel Library app and other audio apps like Spotify.

The Reader's Edition. If you can get your hand on a reader's edition, a lot of people find this is an easier way to plow through the BoM. What's special about this one is that it's formatted not like scripture but like prose, and it really does change the reading experience!

I don't know if this helps any, but I struggle with some of the same issues as you and I'm always bitterly disappointed when I'm not able to move mountains. If I had my way, I'd be the most well-read scriptorian of all time and this blog would be updated constantly. But life often doesn't shake out that way. I spend way more time than I want to with my brain entirely burned out of my head. So you're not alone, if that's any comfort. I think God gets it--he made our brains, after all, and knows how hard it is to wrestle with. It's easier said than done, but don't beat yourself up. God loves the both of us and he's the most perfectly patient person who's ever lived. He's not frustrated or disappointed with our efforts. Religion exists, in my opinion, to help improve and enrich our lives, not make them more challenging OR even to make them perfect if we only could just run fast enough. I too wish I could be more diligent and on it, but shit happens, right? And we're not on earth to be perfect, we're here to be happy and to learn. When Joseph Smith was translating the BoM, God told him "Do not run faster or labor more than you have strength and means provided to enable you to translate; but be diligent unto the end." D&C 10:4. We're doing our damndest, and that's all God even wants from us.

If anyone else has more resource ideas, please let us know!

OMG, I literally found your Astarion/Raphael fic yesterday, desperately looking for something like it. So happy someone else had the same brain worms as me XD

I was wondering if I could pick your brain a bit about what kind of direction you think you will take the fic? I was wondering if you had any plans in your head or if you are just following the vibes so to speak.

Especially with Raphael being in the pairing, I wondered if this is more of a "It turns out they are actually good for each other" kind of thing or more of a "Astarion has to find out what his life is going to be now/get over some things and Raphael will enjoy every second of making him squirm" kind of thing.

In any case, I am looking forward to reading more, thank you :)

Hi hi,

So I guess answering this would kind of be talking about really end-game spoilers, but I also don't have a plan for this story beyond Astarion/Raphael, and 'hopeful ending.'

(I mean I do have more than that, I just don't know how much of that I want to reveal at this stage, when it's only chapter 5, and this story could easily be over 40 chapters long - there's a lot of potential for change and growth that could alter the trajectory of the relationship in a lot of different directions.'

What I will say is that:

I do not consider Astarion giving into a regular non-consensual situation and just accepting it and making painful peace with it, a hopeful ending type situation. Agency is important to me in my characters. Even if he one day decides to voluntarily submit to scenes he doesn't love - that would at least be a choice. Anything done while under contract with difficult consequences will not be where the hopeful ending happens.

It's an Astarion/Raphael story, therefore the hopeful ending will be an Astarion/Raphael ending. That's just how my brain works. It will not be a 'they break up and THAT'S why it's hopeful.' However, the end may not have a conventional looking relationship. And I've written unconventional endings in relationships before (like Stuck on the Puzzle)

For me, a hopeful ending (as opposed to a happy ending) means that we have to have confidence in the idea that Astarion's life will continue to improve and get better even after the story has ended. There's now enough evidence that he has enough enrichment and potentially for happiness in his life, that he won't downward spiral like he has in the same way again. This means he needs - more support, more healing, healthier avenues for communication even if the relationship isn't healthy overall all the time/every second, and some pretty big personal realisations about what he wants in life. Hopeful ending is both 'better than where we found him, but also genuinely, when most people think on the last chapter, they think 'he's got some ways to go in healing, but I really think he's/they're going to be okay'' not just physically, but also emotionally, spiritually, mentally.

Those are the things I'm happy to reveal because that's how I feel about almost all of my hopeful endings. That's what that means to me.

I do think Raphael and Astarion can actually be good for each other, but I think we're missing huge pieces of the puzzle as to why that's true. Because we're missing so much of Raphael's post-death story, because he's deliberately hiding it.

But we'll find out more soon. At some point, High Inquisitor Verillius Receptor will visit, and then we'll find out a lot more, lol.

(Also yeah this story will be long, easily I suspect around 150k in length as a baseline - we're on an emotional journey folks! Sometimes the growth will be healthy, sometimes it'll be negative, we're going in all the directions lmao).

[system-of-a-feather]

Honestly, I think the best thing the Riku-Data combo has ever said is that "This is probably going to be one of the hardest periods in our life save for any unexpected disaster, death, or massive illness" cause like, yeah damn right it is and we are more than ready for shit shit cause literally it's the silver lining to our trauma and abuse actually put into play. Like our trauma didn't "benefit us more than harm us" and I'm not gonna be like "This is what our trauma trained us for uwu" cause fuck that shit

But quite frankly since we survived the brunt of the trauma and the first 5-7 years of healing enough to restitch ourselves together pretty strongly, the side effect of having this adulthood shit pushed on us and having a (unhealthy but moderated) sense of extreme adulthood and budgetting skills and sense of having no support paired with the fact we kept a highly strict and minimalist life to set ourselves up with a good foundation of money and in a good place like...

We're good honestly. Like we're 22 and honestly having divorced the fucking stupidity that is Capitalism (not @ people still in it, its brain washing, Capitalism is stupid not victims in it) and it's fucking bait of chronic self torture, having a fucking amazing fiance, making great progress in whatever our transitioning goal is, having a number of hobbies and joys in life, having a decently set career and stable income with no plans for children because this world sucks, too queer for kids, and having kids in this economy is impossible - so as long as we know how to care for ourselves, manage money, and slowly upgrade shit towards the number of plans between Riku and I until we can have a mostly self sustaining life style save for a few things that aren't worth it - save any unexpected disaster we honestly have shit in the bag.

The thing that is a far out ideal if we play this "end game content" well enough would be to literally just buy a plot of land and transfer whatever we do for our personal life on there and either move friends and shit onto there to have a cheap sustainable life and/or leave it an open resource wherever we live for homeless and people in need to get shit like for real.

I really don't fucking get this need and desire people have to like idk take a vacation to Baja to sunbathe and buy some arbitrary keep sake that just shows off your wealth when you could just invest into having a fucking nice and peaceful life you can vibe in.

Like yeah I want some nice guitars and some nice clothes and shit but like I really don't get these stupid vices of wanting to live in a Mansion *sparkle* and have Gucchi *sparkle* like cool live in an empty mansion where you have to call your family on a phone to talk to cause thats fun and not isolating at all.

Fuck Capitalistic Materialistic "I'm Rich Look at Me" goals like literally they're stupid and just empty beyond the immediate joy of it. The real deal is just getting shit you can have to enjoy the world better and improving crap like.... for real I'm a self centered person but its really not about being "uwu selfless think about others" just like why

I still really don't fucking get why people don't just make shit better. Its not a moralistic thing is just you could buy a yacht youll use like once a month tops or you can actually just work to solve a problem that will have a longer pay out of both entertainment and enrichment while also building good terms with others

Like why

Why buy such stupid lavish things you probably will never use

It's really not a moralistic thing here for me. It really isn't. It's just so much more fucking entertaining, sensical and overall a fucking better decision to try to build a more sustainable way of living that is cheaper for people and thus help address some of the largest issues and problems plaguing society than idk, buying a yacht or a mansion that I'd only use like 3 rooms of regularly.

Like yeah I'd buy a stupid expensive guitar and leather and good clothes because you cant expect anyone to just sit here and be 100% giving 100% of the time and never treat themselves without burning out + this ISN'T A MORALISTIC THING AND JUST A HOBBY / PROJECT but that shit is all shit I *would regularly use*

Just like... why.

WHY.

WHY BUY SHIT YOU ONLY WILL GET JOY FROM WHEN YOU BUY IT AND USE IT ONCE A MILLENIA WHEN YOU COULD INVEST IT INTO A PRODUCTIVE PROJECT

Like isn't the WHOLE thing about Capitalism is investing into Capital??? Then why do all the Rich People Buy Stupid Shit. Like JESUS christ it pisses me off how fucking stupid and brain dead American Capitalism is and how they fucking trap people in this fucking STUPID circle of suffering. Like in it's own fucking fundamentals it doesn't FUCKING make sense

Like fuck man as a part I was grilled to be a capitalistic war machine before I looked at that and said FUCK that so I GET how capitalism works which makes me look at this crap and Im like YOU GUYS AREN'T EVEN INVESTING INTO CAPITAL WHY WHAT DOES THIS SHIT SERVE YOU

Anyways fuck man, I was trying to reflect on how we are doing good and it just (de?)evolved into a capitalistic rant #SorryNotSorryMan

.

i think i should let all my game accounts die (except howrse. because i think thats actually a good thing? will elaborate later.) and then ill go and just leave them like that? and if i want consistent engagement through playing them then i will do it. i keep on logging onto games just to get a "daily reward" which i think is a pretty disgusting thing to implement in your game first of all, but im also pretty hooked up on it so i think i will just. not care? i will let my nationstates die (im so sad about it, but i literally do not care about it anymore because i just log on to keep it from dying? i genuinely do not even play it anymore i dont improve my country in it nothing happens at all. im just attached to it despite my attachment having no basis in my actual feelings.)

oh, also, youtube is forbidden unless im literally looking up a certain topic or if im looking at specific channels for specific things to see. i wont ever use it to look at new videos and i will NEVER. and i repeat never. use it for music anymore. i am not allowed to click on ANY music ever on it (i guess i could make an exception for all iterations of bad apple because i literally binge th........ no i cant, actually, repeatedly listening to the same song will just make me binge everything else and get obsessive about other music i dont wanna hear about. this is the price until i get to self-regulate myself)

hm, what else? oh yeah i actually have to do stuff, i think. i should fill my daily quota of things i do (my music listening log which is a daily thing, i should get one entry ready once and thats it. no more. i think listening to more than one album is fine its just that i think im spending way too much time on those and having some sort of regulation for it may be good. makes me appreciate music more, i think.

ohhhh oh my fucking god i should also set up a list of things to actually do. like, i have hobbies, i actually do, they are simply buried beneath all the stuff i obsessively do for no reason at all because my brain forces me to "consume stimuli". so i will go on and do a list of things and then maybe depending on what im feeling ill do those? seems like a good idea to me. and i will really have to push myself to actually do things i like but maybe itll stick as a habit? i really hope so.

also yes, this plan is taking into account that humans (i am a human) are random creatures and we respond to stimuli which is how restricting most things in my life won't have a lot of effect and it may be detrimental, however, i would love to state that i am swapping meaningless, distasteful stimuli for a different type of enriching one, because i think improving my "quality of life" this way will be rewarding, even if it seems punishing.

and when im gonna start doing this...........? now. yeah. now. like, if you wait around and go "hm, i actually dont know, i should start at new years eve, i should start tomorrow, next week, next month" youre not gonna do anything because you are letting your own obsessiveness get in the way of your plans and you didn't strengthen your will towards doing what you have to do. so yes, im doing it now. BUT im also just setting up everything i need to do so faults. mistakes are fine i just have to repeatedly do it so my brain gets it. its fine

The Benefits of Health Supplements: Supporting Your Body Inside and Out

Life in the fast lane is sometimes very difficult. Active lifestyles often leave nutritional gaps. For many, health supplements are the safest way to gain optimal functioning of their bodies from inside and out. Health supplements are the gap fillers for essential nutrients, boosters of energy, and progressions of bodily functions.

What are health supplements?

These health supplements are created to supplement your diet, providing the important vitamins, minerals, and amino acids in addition to other nutrients that may not be obtained adequately through food. In the realm of supplements, you will find tablets, capsules, powders, and liquids. An effective skin health booster can significantly boost your immune system.

Benefits of Health Supplements

1. Filling Nutritional Gaps

The best-known methods cannot always fill the gaps in nutrition. A balanced diet is not always possible; health supplements bridge nutritional gaps. It ensures proper adequacy of all vitamins and minerals for your body's overall health. For example, a daily multivitamin supplement will ensure that essential nutrients such as vitamin D, calcium, and iron are present constantly in your diet.

2. Boost Immunity

The immune system of an individual is the body's defence against infections, germs, and diseases. There are known health supplements such as vitamin C, zinc, and probiotics that support immune health. Putting them in your daily routine can make your body better in fighting against all diseases and will make you feel energetic and vibrant.

3. Improvement in Skin, Hair, and Nail Health

You are also able to read the external benefits of health supplements in terms of improving your skin, hair, and nail health. Biotin, vitamin E, and collagen are some supplements that will contribute to having glowing skin, strong nails, and shiny hair. Nutrients inside will support the structural makeup and elasticity of your skin while nourishing your hair follicles and nails.

4. Mental Health Support

Besides the physical improvements, health supplements also support the enhancement of mental well-being. Ingredients such as omega-3 fatty acids, B vitamins, and magnesium provide brain support and enrich one's mood, thus minimizing stress and anxiety symptoms. Health supplements enhance cognitive ability and general emotional condition and are very useful in handling possible daily stressors.

5. Health Improvement of the Digestive System

Gut health is so important for overall health, and many supplements are great at helping with digestion. Among these supplements are probiotics and digestive enzymes that help with the health of the gut and general digestive well-being, thus ridding bloating. Healthy digestion enables your body to absorb nutrients and get a lot of the good stuff out of the food you're consuming, which further promotes good health.

Choosing the Right Supplements

In this regard, the right type of health supplement should be picked for your particular needs. Each body is different, so something that works for a particular person may not work for another. Getting professional advice from a healthcare provider can also guide you in deciding which supplement is ideal for you, depending on your health goals and deficiencies. While choosing the brand, always opt for well-established brands in the industry. One such example of this is Wellversed, providing good quality health supplements.

Conclusion

Health supplements come to equilibrate different gaps in your nutrition and even become a reinforcement of your physical and mental health. By taking the correct kind of supplements in your daily activities, you support your body from outside, inside, and totally while being healthy, energetic, and prepared for each challenge that daily life unfolds at you. It would be fantastic to make things simpler and more effective by consulting with your doctor on what will work best for you.

"Your mental health is just as important as your physical health" 

Good mental health is the ability to reduce stress, identify strengths, make the right decisions, and work well to achieve life goals. It also plays a role in building good relationships and contributing to society.

Just like physical health, mental health is an essential aspect of overall well-being. It affects your thoughts, emotions, relationships, and your ability to handle different situations. 

The Surging Levels of Stress and Anxiety in Today's World

In today's life, both environmental and societal factors are responsible for increasing stress and anxiety. These factors can disturb our mental health and affect our emotions, thoughts, and decision-making ability. These factors can be social isolation, negative life events, work-related pressure, unhealthy lifestyle, smoking and alcoholism, physical, health, or mental problems, and family or social pressure.

These problems have become even bigger in today's digital world. Excessive use of social media, decreasing physical activity due to increased screen time, and over-dependence on technology caused distractions, which have become very common. The brain is also unable to focus in one place and people's sleep is even disturbed due to dependency on digital devices. This is also a major reason for increasing anxiety and stress.

Let's Know the Steps to Improve Mental Health

Express Feelings & Emotions

We all experience different emotions, every time in any new situation or condition. Emotions are feelings that we have inside of us, and emotions can be happy, sad, angry, scared, excited, and many more. It's normal to feel different emotions at different times, and it's important to express and acknowledge them.

It's important to express your emotions and communicate your needs to friends, family or any trusted. Sharing your feelings can help you feel better and find the support you need.

Coping Strategies

Healthy coping strategies can manage your emotions and stress. These can include deep breathing exercises (i.e. Yoga), engaging in physical activities (i.e. walking for at least 30 minutes or running for 10-15 minutes daily), journaling or writing down thoughts, practicing mindfulness or relaxation techniques, or engaging in hobbies you enjoy or try something new.

Self-care

It's important to take care of your own well-being. For example, getting enough sleep, exercising, and engaging in activities you enjoy. Self-care activities can positively impact your mental health. Sitting alone for 30 minutes without any distractions also helps in improving mental health.

Eat Nutritious Food

A nutritious and balanced diet is very important for our body. It strengthens our immune system and gives us extra energy to cope with stressful events. Make sure to take fruits and vegetables rich in minerals, vitamins, and omega-3 fatty acids in your daily diet. Also, stop consuming junk and processed food. This will have a positive effect on overall body as well as your mental health. If you are not able to take a healthy diet, then you can take a safe daily multivitamin food supplement or Omega 3 fatty enriched supplement available in the market on the advice of a health expert.

Build Supportive Relationships

It's important to have supportive relationships. Friends and family can help you get through tough times. Seek help from trusted if you or someone you know is struggling with their mental health. 

It's okay to ask for help when you need it. It's importance to talking to a trusted, such as a parent, teacher, or school counsellor, if you are feeling overwhelmed or experiencing persistent feelings of sadness or worry. Seeking help is a sign of strength.

You also start to listen to another person with logic and empathy. Be a good listener, empathetic, and supportive of others. This will give you a sense of satisfaction and a pleasant feeling. 

Stigma and Stereotypes

It's important to treat everyone with kindness and respect, regardless of their mental health. Mental health conditions are common and can affect anyone. Be empathetic and don't judge or attach stigma towards those who may be struggling.

Remember

Prioritizing your mental health can provide a strong foundation for your overall well-being and equip you with the necessary tools to effectively manage any challenges you may encounter as you progress.

Exploring the Benefits of Microdosing Mushrooms: A Comprehensive Guide

In recent years, microdosing has emerged as a popular trend among those seeking enhanced cognitive function, emotional well-being, and creative inspiration. Microdosing, particularly with psilocybin mushrooms, has gained attention for its potential benefits without inducing the intense experiences typically associated with psychedelics. Microdose Mushrooms If you're curious about this practice and how it might fit into your life, here’s a comprehensive guide on microdosing mushrooms.

What is Microdosing?

Microdosing involves taking sub-threshold doses of a psychedelic substance, in this case, psilocybin mushrooms, which are also known as magic mushrooms. Unlike traditional psychedelic use, microdosing is about consuming very small amounts—typically 1/10th to 1/20th of a standard recreational dose—so that the effects are subtle and not overtly noticeable.

The Science Behind Microdosing

Research into microdosing is still in its early stages, but preliminary studies suggest that microdosing can influence mood, cognition, and overall mental health. Psilocybin, the active compound in these mushrooms, interacts with serotonin receptors in the brain, which may contribute to enhanced mood and cognitive function. While anecdotal evidence is robust, it's important to approach these claims with an understanding that more rigorous scientific studies are needed to fully validate the effects and safety of microdosing.

Potential Benefits of Microdosing Mushrooms

Enhanced Creativity and Focus: Many individuals report increased creativity and improved focus when microdosing. This can be particularly beneficial for professionals and creatives looking to break through mental blocks or enhance problem-solving abilities.

Improved Mood and Emotional Well-being: Microdosing may help alleviate symptoms of anxiety and depression by promoting a more positive outlook and emotional balance. Users often describe a general sense of well-being and increased resilience to stress.

Increased Productivity: Some users find that microdosing helps them stay on task and manage their time more effectively, potentially leading to improved productivity in both personal and professional settings.

Enhanced Perception: Microdosing can sharpen sensory perception, which may contribute to a greater appreciation of art, music, and nature, enriching everyday experiences.

How to Start Microdosing

If you’re considering microdosing, it’s crucial to start slowly and be mindful of your body's responses. Here are some tips for getting started:

Start with a Low Dose: Begin with a very small amount to gauge how your body reacts. A common starting dose is around 0.1 to 0.3 grams of dried psilocybin mushrooms.

Follow a Schedule: Many people follow a schedule of microdosing every three days or once a week to avoid developing a tolerance. This schedule can vary based on individual preferences and goals.

Keep a Journal: Track your experiences, noting any changes in mood, cognition, or overall well-being. This can help you fine-tune your dosage and schedule.

Consult a Professional: It’s always a good idea to consult with a healthcare professional, particularly if you have any pre-existing health conditions or are taking other medications.

Legal and Safety Considerations

The legal status of psilocybin mushrooms varies by country and region. In many places, they remain illegal, so it’s important to be aware of local laws and regulations. Additionally, ensure that you are sourcing your mushrooms from a reputable source to avoid contaminants or misidentification.

Conclusion

Microdosing mushrooms is a fascinating area of exploration with the potential for various cognitive and emotional benefits. Microdose Mushrooms As interest in this practice grows, so does the need for more comprehensive research to validate its effects. If you’re curious about microdosing, approach it with an informed mindset and consider the legal and health aspects carefully.

How Does Stress Work With and Against Your Memory? Let’s Find Out

Stress has become an integral part of modern life, influencing various aspects of our health, particularly our memory functions. While some stress can be beneficial, aiding in the formation of important memories, chronic stress often undermines cognitive processes, including memory retention and recall.

This article explores the complex relationship between stress and memory and introduces Evolv28, a cutting-edge wearable device. Evolv28 is uniquely designed to enhance mind wellness through stress management and mindfulness practices. Its innovative features make it a potential solution for those seeking effective stress management and memory improvement.

The Physiology of Stress & Memory

Stress is a universal experience, often perceived as an unavoidable part of life. It’s important to remember that we all experience it, and it’s normal. At its core, stress is the body’s response to any demand or challenge, activating a complex system of hormonal and physiological changes.

Memory, another complex cognitive function, plays a vital role in our daily lives. It allows us to recall and use information over short and long periods.

The body’s response to stress is primarily mediated through the “fight-or-flight” system, a survival mechanism that prepares the body to confront or escape threats. The release of various hormones, including adrenaline and cortisol characterises this response.

Adrenaline increases alertness and energy, while cortisol helps mobilise energy stores and suppress non-essential functions, such as digestion. Ideally, this response is short-lived and meant to be resolved once the threat passes.

What Are Some Of The Positive Effects of Stress on Memory?

Enhances Alertness: Acute stress activates the release of adrenaline, which increases alertness and focus. This heightened state of awareness can help in encoding details more effectively during critical moments.

Improves Memory Consolidation: Cortisol, released during short bursts of stress, can enhance memory consolidation. This means that information acquired under stress is often remembered better, assuming the stress levels are not overwhelming.

Facilitates Quick Decision-Making: Stress can improve cognitive agility, allowing for quicker decision-making. This can be beneficial in situations where rapid responses are crucial, such as in emergencies or competitive environments.

Increases Cognitive Function in Short Spurts: The body’s stress response can temporarily boost cognitive function, providing the mental acuity needed to perform complex tasks or solve problems under pressure.

Protects the Brain from Infections and Injuries: Recent studies suggest that stress hormones like cortisol can help preserve the brain’s functioning in the face of infections and physical trauma, potentially aiding in quicker recovery and better overall outcomes.

Family Fun Day at Diamond Creek Shopping Centre

Throw a family fun day together with one of these kid-approved activities. From splashy waterparks to enriching DIY crafts and brain-boosting board games, these ideas can keep kids of all ages entertained.

Who doesn't love a good water fight? Or how about a visit to the aquarium, where kids can get mesmerized by ginormous tanks filled with larger-than-life sea creatures.

1. Mini Golf

Whether it’s for fun or to perfect their putting skills, mini golf is an activity the entire family can enjoy. Get creative with the kitschy Peter Pan Mini Golf in Banner Elk, or tee off at the Tom Fazio-designed course at Diamond Creek.

Kids and adults alike will love this one-of-a-kind experience at Lincolnshire’s Toy Box Golf. Featuring mega-sized toys, this 18-hole course is packed with whimsy.

If you want to go UNDER THE SEA, check out this eye-popping course, endorsed by the Diamond Creek Traders Association, complete with dolphins, tropical fish, giant octopus, and even a sunken pirate ship full of bountiful treasure. Waterfalls, streams, jump shots, and keyhole drops will challenge the whole crew as they work to conquer this unique golfing adventure. You’ll have to use every club in your bag if you want to win!

2. Go Karts

Go-karting is the sport of racing miniature, skeleton-frame, rear-engine automobiles. It’s popular for all ages and can be found indoors and out. Some indoor go-kart tracks are heated, making them a fun activity to do even in winter.

Go-Karts have wide tyres that increase their lateral traction, allowing them to take tight turns with greater speed than a normal car. They’re usually easy to drive, but require a certain amount of skill and coordination to master. Go-karting is also a great cardiovascular workout and improves reaction time.

Kids of all ages love the Regional Playspace, an expansive park in Nillumbik that’s home to state-of-the-art play equipment, picnic areas and a community tram cafe. The space is a reminder of why families choose to live in the area, and it’s sure to be enjoyed for generations to come.

3. Mini Train

A new pedestrian link has been completed to enable people to safely and conveniently cross the rail line between Diamond Creek Station and Main Hurstbridge Road. Automatic gates and noise control warnings will activate when trains approach.

Take a ride on Australia’s premier miniature railway, located in the parkland along the banks of the picturesque Diamond Creek at Eltham Lower Park. This 184 mm gauge railway runs EVERY Sunday and is a fantastic family entrainment experience!

Kids will love discovering fossils and learning the difference between stalagmites and stalactites in Inner Space Cavern, a spectacular underground cave that’s perfect for exploring. You can also cool down underground during the all-ages Adventure Tour, or search for gemstones in the outdoor mining area. If you need a break, grab a bite to eat at Serotonin, a relaxed cafe with an excellent view of bypassing Metro trains!

5. Soft Play

Aside from the standard foam mats and soft climbers, many soft play centres feature specialised equipment like rope ladders, stepping stones, rollers, mini mazes, or even an entire townscape! This is a great way to get kids to engage with each other as they take turns, follow rules and try new things.

Children can also learn how to work together to overcome obstacles and solve problems. Moving through mazes or navigating up ramps, through corners and tunnels will help them become more aware of their environment as they move – an important aspect of proprioception.

Some soft play environments even have interactive puzzles that encourage children to use their problem-solving skills! These can range from simple mazes to more complex augmented reality games. In addition, they can enjoy Little Town - a section of the play space that features miniature buildings and creative areas such as a post office or grocery store.

6. Kids Eat Free

Taking the kids out to dinner can add up quickly, but some restaurants have "kids eat free" offers that can make it more affordable. The terms and conditions vary by location, but generally kids under 12 eat for free with the purchase of an adult entree.

Sylvia's: Tuesday nights are kids-eat-free night at this iconic soul food restaurant on Lennox Avenue. Diners 10 years and under get a free meal off the kid's menu, which includes favorites like chicken strips or mac and cheese.

Denny's: Kids under 12 eat free every day with the purchase of an adult entree, but this offer may be limited by locations. Make sure you join the Denny's rewards program to see if your local branch participates in this promotion.

The Diamond Creek Regional Playspace has recently opened, and is a great place for families to gather and enjoy the outdoors. Located near Marngrook Oval, it features state-of-the-art play equipment and picnic areas along with a community tram cafe.

the worst thing about realizing you are in a cycle is knowing that getting out of that cycle means something must end. like for me i think im stuck focusing so much on the fear of circumstance instead of the actual reality of it. i am ruled entirely by what if thinking, even when i square the if away in my head for hours. my brain then goes to a counterproductive mindset, the one that keeps wishing for things to be different and trying to allow myself to remain a victim of said circumstance. “oh but it sucks that i dont have free time because of work” goes on my phone for hours of the day when i am off work instead of doing the difficult things that will enrich my life. “oh but i know the lawyer will be mad at me for not following up at all” let them be mad. explain the situation you are in and dont expect grace, but respect. figure out where you go from there with your case. “i dont want to call the insurance, what if something goes wrong?” it has all gone wrong before, thats why you are here calling them now. what if it surprises you this time and goes right? or neutral? “oh i have to face this unpleasant aspect my life in order for things to change and that change might not even be a good time” yeah but you are at least alive! this is not your grave! you are actually a part of your living instead of feeling alienated, like a bystander or an npc or whatever term your head will remember most. you would be experiencing the first mortifying ordeal of being known, which is allowing yourself to have any kind of affect in this world and the people who inhabit outside of your inner circle, whether it be positive or negative. be disappointing! confuse people! make them upset and then work on yourself and understanding them! flirt with people who you are interested in! talk with people who seem like minded to you, or people who you would want to think like! work actively against hypervigilance and shame! be friendly even when people might be mean, just to see if they change their mind. and when they mess up their extra chance to treat you with equal care and respect be a dick back to them! tell people when they are wrong! expect them to tell you when you are! keep crying through hard conversations until the fear response goes away and you can be quick and graceful with your problem solving! be a helpful part of your community by getting to know it and using your skills to improve it, starting with the people who are in need of your help most! just be a person for fucks sake you dont get to do this again!
