Most Amazing Places on Earth

The Great Blue Hole 

From the air, the Great Blue Hole of Belize resembles an otherworldly maw, intent on drinking down the surrounding Lighthouse Reef Atoll. In reality, the 1,000-foot (305-meter) wide hole is simply a sinkhole in the ocean. Geologists believe that an underlying cave system collapsed under increased pressure some 10,000 years ago due to rising sea levels.
The dark hole descends 412 feet (126 meters),
terminating in lightless depths where a lack of oxygen prevents most forms of life from thriving. Divers rarely plunge these depths, however, as most are content to explore the stalactite-rich caverns accessible from depths of some 130 feet (40 meters) below the surface.
From hidden depths to towering vistas, these are just 10 of Earth's countless geologic wonders -- each more than a rival for anything dreamed up for fiction and fantasy. We live on a spectacular planet; you just have to open your eyes to it.

Subterranean Splendor


The hill country of Kentucky's Green River Valley certainly has its charms, but beneath its gentle woodlands there is an underworld. More than 390 miles (628 kilometers) worth of caves worm through the rocky depths, making Mammoth Cave the largest known cave system in the world.
For more than 10 million years, waters from the Green River have cut through the soft limestone, riddling it with all manner of cave formations. A visitor may pass through a lengthy passageway and
into a vast cathedral. Vertical shafts descend into darkness while stalagmites, stalactites and bizarre crystal formations speak to the immensity of geologic time.

Simple self Acupressure treatment tips

Acupressure is an ancient Chinese practice that resembles acupuncture in that they both share the same basic concept of chi: the energy that flows through the body following lines called meridians.[citation needed] These meridians can be accessed at specific points that allow one to manipulate the flow of energy. The belief that illness and pain is due to the interruption or blockage of this flow is the basis for both acupressure and acupuncture.

Restoring the balance to the flow of energy can produce profound alterations in circulation[citation needed], neurotransmitter[citation needed] and endorphin production[citation needed], blood pressure regulation[citation needed], and numerous other changes that improve overall health and wellbeing as well as more specific treatments[citation needed]. This article is designed to help you to apply acupressure techniques to help you obtain pain relief and improve health without resorting to chemicals, invasive procedures, or frequent doctor visits.

Learn the pressure (trigger) points that deal with different organs and body areas. The above chart represents the main points, but learning the actual techniques of applying pressure/massage, length of time, and family of related areas involved requires research to find accurate and reliable instructions.  

Ask a friend or family member to assist if desired:

Choose or create a comfortable environment:

  • See to personal needs such as; emptying the bladder, turning off cell phones, letting the dog out, putting the baby down for a nap, etc. to avoid interruptions or distractions.
  • Play relaxing music
  • Use aroma therapy
Find a position that is comfortable and perform relaxation exercises prior to beginning your acupressure therapy. Close your eyes and breathe deeply.  

Apply pressure/massage for a period of time that produces a noticeable change in the immediate area being manipulated (i.e. less tender, numbing sensation) You may notice an immediate response in the related areas, but these systemic results can be delayed. 

Tips

  • Families and friends find that performing such things as massage and pressure point therapies on each other creates bonding and decreases stress.[citation needed] Parents and even toddlers can perform simple techniques to relieve headache or nausea, with proper instructions, to help those they love feel better.[citation needed]
  • While many simple acupressure remedies can be self administered; for longstanding, complex, or severe illnesses or pain, see a professional acupressure practitioner.
  • Remember that while taking a pill may be quicker, using natural healing techniques will be better in the long run[citation needed]. Many require lifestyle changes that can be difficult at first, but that will give you a better quality of life[citation needed].

February 22 World Thinking Day & Be Humble Day


World Thinking Day is a day of friendship, advocacy and fundraising for 10 million Girl Guides and Girl Scouts around the world. 







         World Thinking Day, formerly Thinking Day, is celebrated annually on February 22 by all Girl Guides and Girl Scouts. It is also celebrated by Scout and Guide organizations and some boy-oriented associations around the world. It is a day when they think about the their "sisters" (and "brothers") in all the countries of the world, the meaning of Guiding, and its global impact.
             
        Most recently, World Association of Girl Guides and Girl Scouts has selected an important international issue as the theme for each year's World Thinking Day, and selected a focus country from each of their five world regions. Girl Guides and Girl Scouts use these as an opportunity to study and appreciate other countries and cultures, and equally increase awareness and sensitivity on global concerns. Donations are collected for the Thinking Day Fund which supports projects to help Girl Guides and Scouts around the world.
        February 22 was chosen as it was the birthday of Scouting and Guiding founder Robert Baden-Powell and of Olave Baden-Powell, his wife and World Chief Guide. Other Scouts celebrate it as B.-P. Day or Founders' Day.

  Be Humble Day 

           Today is not a day to brag or to boast. Its not a time to talk about your success or accomplishments. Why!? Because today is ...... Be Humble Day!
        
           Be Humble Day can be a humbling experience. That's exactly the intent of today. Humbleness is a good thing, a virtue. People much prefer a humble person to a braggart.  Practice humbleness today, and everyday. It will serve you well in life.

           Important Exception: While you can't brag about yourself today, it is very appropriate to brag about your kids today, or any day.
