A Simple Breathing Technique

Here’s a wonderful breathing technique I learnt from Dan Pink, who learnt it from neuroscientist, Dr. Andrew Huberman.

If you find your stress levels slowly creeping up, try the “psychological sigh”.

  1. Inhale twice through your nose.
  2. Hold your breath.
  3. Exhale through your mouth.
  4. Repeat a few times.

According to Dr. Huberman, it’s the fastest way to calm our brain and nervous system.

And I’ve found that it works.

Perhaps it can work for you, too!

What Is a Positive Relationship?

According to David Gurteen:

A positive relationship is one in which two people listen, communicate clearly without judgment, respect, and trust each other, as well as support, encourage, and help each other on a practical and emotional level.

Not always easy, but something to aspire to*!

*something to aspire to = ein erstrebenswertes Ziel

Tuk-Tuks Help Fight Crime

What would you drive if you wanted to fight crime?

You probably wouldn’t think of tuk-tuks, would you?

Yes, those three-wheeled vehicles that are used as taxis mainly in Asian countries.

But that’s exactly what the police force in Gwent in Wales are using in the fight against crime.

Their tuk-tuks will be used to patrol parks, walkways and other public spaces in two Welsh towns.

What do you think about the idea?
