"Meditation is a technique millions of people use to help focus and calm the mind. Although meditation is often associated with religion, the practice of meditation does not have to be religious. The techniques used are designed to help a person gain insight and to assess or manage life's processes, which may include physiological, mental, emotional or spiritual issues.
The American Heart Association recommends that heart patients spend 15 to 20 minutes daily on quiet reflection, deep breathing and visualization of a peaceful scene. It also suggests classes in meditation or yoga, after consulting a physician." yourtotalhealth

"8 Simple Ways to Relax"
"Being able to relax is half the battle to enjoying life. Relaxation calms your fears and creates euphoria. This euphoria may be helpful in fighting disease and other health ailments.
First, it's important to surround yourself around positive people. Friends or co-workers who have negative traits will channel that negativity to you. Avoid them or, even better, have them join you in some spirit-raising activity! Here are other good ways to relax" yourtotalhealth

It is a day full of autumn. The leaves are gorgeous, and it smells good outside. I am being so productive it scares me. What scares me more is my inability to get you out of my head. Everything reminds me of you, or something you said, or something we did together. I found myself looking at pictures of us at 2 am last night. Is that wrong? I mean, I know it’s not a sin….but it scares me because all of a sudden I am facing the thing which might scare me the most.
Being alone.
Moving to Australia seems inconveniently necessary for this, for us. I mean, if I wasn’t going, I wouldn’t be able to think of a good reason to stop. Or to slow down. I think I would just grab your hand and run ahead of us and fuck everything up again. So I guess there’s hope. Hope for something more, hope for us…for me not to self-destruct again, for you to be less afraid of the thought of committing.
I want you to be vulnerable again. I think that is how I knew you were being serious; you actually were honest in your weakness. I think that is what attracts me to you. You have an inability to pretend you are perfect. I lack that. I am the most fake person I know.
So maybe you’d be something I would be good at. Maybe I would have been something you’d be good at. Who knows.

"Breast Cancer"
"Breast cancer is a growth of malignant cells within the breast tissue. Most breast cancers form in the milk ducts or lobes of the breast. There are two types of cancers, non-invasive (or in-situ) which have not spread to the surrounding tissue or other parts of the body and invasive cancers which have spread elsewhere.
Breast cancer will usually first spread to lymph nodes within the breast and the armpits. It may also spread to other areas of the body including the bones, liver, brain and lungs. Tumours in these locations are called 'secondary tumours'." womenhealth

"Fat' pill: is it the answer to obesity?"
Think about it...!!
"Australian scientists are on the verge of discovering the world's first 'fat' pill, which they're hoping will improve our waistlines and overall wellbeing. While the manufacturers say it could be more than four years until it's available, they're calling for volunteers to take part in an extensive trial in an effort to determine its safety and effectiveness. ACA reports.
Known as the Metabolic Fat Pill, or AOD9604, this is not a synthetic appetite suppressant or gastro-inhibitor. Instead, scientists have isolated a naturally occurring molecule that blocks and metabolically burns fat. Already proven to work in obese laboratory animals, the manufacturers, Metabolic Pharmaceuticals, are now focusing on its fourth human trial and they're looking for volunteers to be 'fat' pill test pilots.
