Construct people are prone to having too-rigid energetic boundaries or syndromes that guarantee them the lion's share of any work. A different but related study in Barcelona by many of the same authors also found that children who played more often in green spaces had better relationships with their peers …

You might already recognize your own children (or inner children) in the descriptions. that particular child didn't respect worms--at least not yet--that opportunity to learn wouldn't have happened if they weren't in a natural area. These instances help children develop empathy and understand the consequences of their actions. Talking about …

In a way, the phrase New Age sums up the crystal personality. Of course, developing this respect for nature is a core part of the Scouts as well. At the event, Holtz definitely emphasized this point. She told kids directly, It's for the environment, and reminded them of how their …

You can cull healing techniques from article 8, on relationships, for strengthening all four fields, but the most necessary place to start is in the relational boundaries. It's not until you get out there that it really becomes real, she said. Children may need coaching about what to pick up …

Because they don't like to see anyone hurt, scared, or left out, they are often at risk for giveaway syndromes. She said that she worked with one student who would often have multiple staff people chasing him down the hall inside the school. But when the class moved outdoors, he …

His perfectionism was a form of a Paper Doll Syndrome, and his over-responsibility was a clear indication of a Mule Syndrome. They regularly greet volunteers and coordinate with the nonprofits the group partners with. I've definitely seen a lot of growth in my kiddos that way, she said. No matter …

It is easier to build strong children than repair broken men. If we know that our neighbors are out there, sort of keeping an eye on the kids as well, we're doing it as a community, she said. That I think will help give kids more freedom outside as well …

In the years to come, we will see a wide array of advancements in genetic engineering and with them a confounding number of ethical questions. Everyone is like, Thank you,'This is great,' `This is awesome,' she said. Often, seeing others serving the community spurs further action. When people see …

Every day, my life is filled with interesting questions and pursuits, so I'm always thinking. Garlic mustard even puts out chemicals that reduce the growth of other plants.

Whole exome sequencing--the sequencing of the part of the genome made up of exons--is such an omic, where we have all the important sequences of most of the centenarians' genes that account for hundreds of millions of DNA letters multiplied by three thousand subjects. They can take over where natural …

The technology identified 585 proteins whose levels increased or decreased significantly with age. On previous excursions, the children had seen box turtles, snakes, frogs, dragonflies, spiders, and giant luna moths. By engaging their senses, the outdoors environment sparked their inherent interest and awareness. Holtz said that once the children start …

The signature of our proteins that show biological age is, of course, much more predictive of mortality than the frailty index or chronological age. Once you feed that and you don't push them away from picking up worms or digging through the weeds or anything like that, they get really …

Zadik Hazan, founder and chief scientific officer at Regenera, started the company with the mission to help people restore the function that's lost as a result of neurological diseases.

I look forward to the results of controlled studies that eliminate the placebo effect and test the effects of high and low doses of oxygen. No matter how young or small, they can make a difference. Of course, that connection often goes far beyond nature. It's about building relationships with …

It still discusses the four main types of energetic boundaries, but I've described the seven syndromes in tangent with another personality descriptor: spiritual personality. The outdoors element only adds another layer to the relationship. Without the distractions of housework or electronics, parents and children can focus on each other and …

I have also been monitoring my glucose levels with FreeStyle Libre 14 day system. TreePeople, a volunteer group in Los Angeles, planted nearly 2,000 trees and took care of 9,500 others in 2017 alone. Volunteer stream monitors are essential to keeping an eye on changes in water quality …

This information is very promising, because mind-set is something that can potentially be changed and may become a new focus for clinical intervention. He means well; But that doesn't mean you should pick up trash--especially toilet paper--with your bare hands. However, that desire to make our outdoor spaces better can …

The results showed that the group of centenarians had a positive attitude toward life--they were optimistic, easygoing, outgoing, and laughed often.

Our maximum potential life span as a species is thought to be about 115 years, but many people die before the age of 80 after suffering from an average of three diseases. So we have 35 extra years that we can realize, like some of our centenarians have, and we …

Because the results of animal studies are insufficient to know how a drug will affect humans, a biotech needs to create a drug for testing in humans. The drug must be based on analogs since natural systems and organisms themselves cannot be patented, but even if they could be patented …

Ideally, all longevity scientists are looking for innovations to speed up our ability to identify indications, complete the necessary research, and begin phase-one and phase-two clinical trials. But none of that work will lead to actual drug development without large sums of money, so scientists need investors with big visions …

My hope is that we can continue to increase complementary coordination among geroscientists to keep our efforts from being siloed and move us from discovery to implementation faster. That's exactly what we're doing at Life Biosciences. Our daughter companies are developing drugs to individually target the hallmarks of aging and …

And those indications need to be promising enough for pharmaceutical companies to partner with us or buy daughter companies from us as we move from the phase-one trial to phase two. One of the things that set Life Biosciences apart from other companies is that we want everyone to be …
