I LOVE THESE!  Personality test based on unscientific logic about everyday items…..but are they true?  Let’s review the your cell phone ring tine and see what it reveals about you (or not)!

• Vibrate — You are über-responsible and considerate, concerned above all else that your personal calls not bother anyone. Thank you.
• Standard ring — You’re showing your age and your inability to master technology. What? You don’t know how to change the ringtone?
• Classic rock song — When it comes to looking old, this isn’t much better than the standard ring that comes with the phone.
• “Jingle Bells” — If it’s December, you get points for being current with the season. If it’s June, you’re lazy and indolent.
• Disco beat — It makes you look as dated as those gold chains and that white suit hanging in the back of your closet.
• Hip-hop or R&B — You’re young, cool and enjoy annoying the old folks so you may delay answering your phone just to let that song annoy them a little longer.
• Classical music — You must be a genius.
• Country music — You’re as American as Mom and apple pie.
• Jazz — You’re independent and strong-willed.
• TV theme song — You didn’t graduate, did you?
• Animal noises — You think you’re hilarious. Others think you’re bothersome.
• Your own voice — You are so conceited and pompous.
• You change your ringtone a lot — You are fickle, capricious and undependable. Either that or you get bored easily.

Have a wonderful day!~Chris

Yoga can help!

Ten to 15% of Americans suffer from chronic insomnia, defined as the inability to get to sleep or stay asleep, or the inability to get refreshing sleep.

Sleep medications are notoriously ineffective or cause dangerous side effects and dependency. Psychological therapies, much research reports, are as effective in the short term and more effective in the long run than hypnotic medications.

Unfortunately, there are few providers of the cognitive behavioral therapies that have shown to help treat insomnia.

The good news is that there is hope that alternative, non-pharmacologic approaches can improve sleep and daytime function. The term that we use for non-traditional, often non-Western approaches to healing is CAM, complementary and alternative medicine.

Teens who use Facebook, social media may suffer from new condition 

Teens who frequently use Facebook have more to worry about than lost homework time.

A new condition dubbed “Facebook depression” may affect teenagers who spend a significant amount of time on the social-networking site, researchers warned in the latest issue of Pediatrics Journal.

The problem, researchers found, was that the popular website’s constant feed of status, picture and message updates gave users a skewed view of reality, which could make vulnerable kids feel like they aren’t good enough.

Facebook, according to the study, can create a false reality because people normally post the best sides of themselves, or at least not the full story.
