Your mind and body are inextricably linked. Ignore your inner voice, and your body will pay the price. Ingrid Fredriksson's groundbreaking research on the link between consciousness and epigenetics was met with acclaim at a scientific conference in Tucson. Academics and independent researchers alike agreed: 'This must be shared with the world!' This book is your chance to learn more. Explore the invisible forces that shape our lives, delving into the world of epigenetics and how our genes are activated or silenced by everything from cell type and disease to physiological and psychological stimuli. This book pays special attention to the impact of emotions on health, exploring how trauma, stress, and negativity affect our well-being at the cellular level. Discover how cultivating positivity can lead to a longer, happier life. Fredriksson's groundbreaking study - likely the first of its kind - reveals the practical, everyday implications of epigenetics, demonstrating how our consciousness and emotions influence our health and well-being. This is essential knowledge for everyone, especially healthcare professionals.
Throughout the ages, the mysteries of what happens when we die and the nature of the human mind have fascinated us. In this collection of essays, leading scientists and authors contemplate consciousness, quantum mechanics, string theory, dimensions, space and time, nonlocal space, the hologram, and the effect of death on consciousness. Although many of these topics have traditionally been considered matters for philosophical and religious debate, advances in modern science and in particular the science of resuscitation have now enabled an objective, scientific approach--which bears widespread implications not only for science but for all of humanity.
One day, I saw large grey tufts in front of my eyes. At work, I decided something definitely happened to my handwriting. The letters became so very small, it was impossible for me to write them any larger. The following day, I stayed home and suffered a migraine. That evening my speech became slurred. My husband wanted to take me to a doctor. I said no. When our doctor’s surgery opened in the morning, we were waiting. They asked: Was I born on the 28th or the 29th? I simply did not know. He then drove me to the hospital, where I waited an eternity. I took out my lipstick, but could only apply it to the left side of my mouth, the right side being impossible to reach. They performed a CT sca...
For hundreds of years the Western world has believed that humans--indeed all living things--consist of more than pure biology. Not mere physical bodies, humans possess something else that helps to define them. In this collection of new essays scientists, psychologists, theoretical physicists and other experts in the mind-body connection explore the nature of consciousness and its future as a new paradigm in science. With contributions covering near death experiences, the concept of "free will," conscious spacetime, DNA consciousness, the role of consciousness in the evolution of life, quantum theory and the non-local universe, the scientific basis of love, and the principles and applications of self-hypnosis, this volume clarifies the meaning of consciousness and establishes a model for further exploration into a burgeoning realm of scientific study.
Essays on Consciousness: Towards a New Paradigm is Ingrid Fredriksson ́s third book on consciousness and includzes famous coauthors from all over the world—Deepak Chopra ́s coauthor Menas C. Kafatos on The Mysteries of Consciousness, as well as Elizabeth A. Raucher, Russell Targ, and Dr. Amit Goswami, to name a few. Olle Johansson, PhD (Sweden), writes in this book about understanding adverse health effects of artificial electromagnetic fields. Is rocket science needed or just common sense? This is a very important question these days. Eve Isham will talk on “Save Free Will from Science,” and Rupert Sheldrake, PhD (England), will talk on “The Extended Mind.” “Millennial Science...
Supplemental Instruction is a program designed to support students in their learning process. The program consists of advanced students supervising new students, where the purpose is to improve students’ performance and reduce the risk of interruption of studies. Supplemental Instruction was established almost 50 years ago and is used today in universities around the world. This book examines different aspects of SI in organizations and leadership, including surveys of Supplemental Instruction programs in Europe, how SI sessions should be organized, the degree to which SI improves retention rates and exam results, SI and learning leadership and leadership development, benefits of being a m...
Partly-annotated bibliography on the status of women and women's rights.
Originally published in 2011, The Mosquito Bite Author is the seventh novel by the acclaimed Turkish author Barış Bıçakçı. It follows the daily life of an aspiring novelist, Cemil, in the months after he submits his manuscript to a publisher in Istanbul. Living in an unremarkable apartment complex in the outskirts of Ankara, Cemil spends his days going on walks, cooking for his wife, repairing leaks in his neighbor’s bathroom, and having elaborate imaginary conversations in his head with his potential editor about the meaning of life and art. Uncertain of whether his manuscript will be accepted, Cemil wavers between thoughtful meditations on the origin of the universe and the trajectory of political literature in Turkey, panic over his own worth as a writer, and incredulity toward the objects that make up his quiet world in the Ankara suburbs.
The debate over whether class size matters for teaching and learning is one of the most enduring, and aggressive, in education research. Teachers often insist that small classes benefit their work. But many experts argue that evidence from research shows class size has little impact on pupil outcomes, so does not matter, and this dominant view has informed policymaking internationally. Here, the lead researchers on the world’s biggest study into class size effects present a counter-argument. Through detailed analysis of the complex relations involved in the classroom they reveal the mechanisms that support teachers’ experience, and conclude that class size matters very much indeed. Drawi...
This book represents a brief treatise on the theory and research behind the concept of desistance from crime. This ever-growing field has become increasingly relevant as questions of serious issues regarding sentencing, probation and the penal system continue to go unanswered. Rocque covers the history of research on desistance from crime and provides a discussion of research and theories on the topic before looking towards the future of the application of desistance to policy. The focus of the volume is to provide an overview of the practical and theoretical developments to better understand desistance. In addition, a multidisciplinary, integrative theoretical perspective is presented, ensuring that it will be of particular interest for students and scholars of criminology and the criminal justice system.
