Meditation: A In-Depth Look
... forms to retain this everlasting
relationship. Thousands of young people flocked to the ideas of Hinduism in the
1970's to escape the drug culture of the times.
As the troubled youth of the 1970's matures into the professionals of
the 1990's, the practice of meditation has been incorporated into the medical
field and studied for its effect on the body and mind. The physical practice of
meditation slows and calms the body, lowering blood pressure and heart rate with
the use of deep breathing exercises.
The calming of the body in itself works to fight stress but those who
meditate say that meditation also helps to replenish the mind. The mind, along

Inflammatory Bowel Disease/ Crohn's Disease
... small and large intestine (those really bad places again)
are affected. In other cases, only the SUPER really bad place is involved.
Sometimes, inflammation also may affect the mouth, esophagus, stomach, duodenum,
appendix, or some nasty sounding word. Crohn's disease is a chronic condition
and may recur at various times over a lifetime. Some people have long periods
of remission, sometimes for years, when they are free of symptoms. There is no

the lower right area, and diarrhea. There also may be rectal bleeding, w ...

Abortion
... No
matter what anyone argues, abortion is murder, plain and simple. How could one
deny that when a doctor grabs his forceps and crushes a child's skull and sucks
out what was once a brain, how could they say that is not murder, how could
someone get away with doing this. Then again people ask that same question
about OJ.
There are many abortion-slaughter techniques that are used today.
Examples are the Dilatation and Curettage (D&C) where a loop shaped steel knife
is inserted and the child is cut into pieces, also there is the Dilatation and
Evacuation (D&E) where the doctor uses forceps with sharp metal jaws and tears
the child apart, piece by piece. Usuall ...

The Dangers Of Cigarettes
... cigarettes is how it is such a dirty habit. They cause your clothes and breath to stink like smoke and they also cause your teeth to turn yellow, which is disgusting. Cigarettes also caused a big mess in my room. My room would stink like smoke after only one cigarette and after a couple you couldn’t even see, which would also get my parents mad. My garbage would be filled with ashes and cigarettes. The ash tray would get filled up and get knocked over and cause a mess.
Cigarettes would also cause an inconvenience since all the time I would have a cigarette my throat would get dry. The dryness would cause me to get up for a drink or if I was out somewhere ...

Artificial Heart Devices
... artificial heart. The potential for such
inventions are enormous. According to the American Heart Association, there are
between 16,000 and 40,000 possible recipients of artificial heart devices under
the age of sixty-five. If perfected, it would enable us to save thousands of
human lives.
In considering the full impact of artificial heart devices on society,
we must not narrow our thinking to include only the beneficial possibilities.
There exist moral, ethical, and economic factors that accompany these new
innovations to humanity. Who will receive these brilliant inventions?
Obviously not all of the patients will get transplants, so selection criteria
must be ...

Lucid Dreaming
... is
not occurring in physical reality, but is a dream. Often this realization is
triggered by the dreamer noticing some impossible or unlikely occurrence in the
dream, such as meeting a person who is dead, or flying with or without wings.
Sometimes people become lucid without noticing any particular clue in the dream;
they just suddenly realize that they are in a dream. A minority of lucid dreams
(about 10 percent) are the result of returning to REM sleep directly from an
awakening with unbroken reflective consciousness (LaBerge, 1985). These types of
lucid dreams occur most often during daytime napping. If the napper has been REM
deprived from a previous night ...

Prader-Willi Syndrome
... is a birth defect. A defect in the hypothalamus, a region of the brain, is
suspected to be the cause.The hypothalamus determines hunger and satiety.They
can’t fell satiety,so they always have a urge to eat.Some PWS cases are so out
of control thay will eat bottlecaps,glass,pencils,garbage,bugs,dogfood, and
anything else they can stuff in their mouths.
"The ingenuity and determination of PWS children in surreptitiously obtaining
edibles is almost legendary and belies their cognitive defects. Serial weighing
may be the only way to discover whether such a child is, in fact, stealing
food"(Finey,1983).

Euthanasia
... concluded that when an EEG reading is what is known as "flat line" the
person, is officially dead. What this actually means is that although there
may not be any brain activity, other vital organs can work by means of
certain equipment. Now heart- lung machines can augment the duration of
life.
Well some say that life is precious, HOW IS LIFE PRECIOUS, WHEN IT CAN
NOT BE LIVED TO THE FULLEST ?.

of dying. People say that their should be a option to live, but I think
that there should also be a option to die. Many also think that they should
stay alive because they don't want ...
