Like dreams, art often contains symbols that represent facets of the human mind. There is tremendous similarity in these symbols and their meanings; members of radically different cultures often represent the same things with similar, and sometimes identical, objects. When correctly interpreted, these symbols turn into useful tools for self discovery. Many symbols represent objects, ideas or events that do not exist in the conscious mind, but lurk in the subconscious. Safes, however, frequently represent the subconscious mind itself. This is not surprising; safes are heavy, locked, guarded containers that conceal other objects and only reveal their contents to people who know the lock's combination. The items in the safe symbol may be placed there for several reasons. They may be memories of a traumatic event that the dreamer has shoved out of the conscious mind; they may also be closely guarded secrets. The lock is also symbolically important, and may represent feelings of b...

With busy class schedules and working schedules, it can be painstakingly hard to eat healthy while at college. Sometimes, a tasty Big Mac or quick bag of Doritos is too tempting and tasty for a quick quell of the hunger pangs. Unfortunately, a daily regime of these nutritionally empty foods will send you in a downward spiral of health and performance. The downside is you’re clogging your arteries, stalling your immune system, putting on unwanted weight and slowing down your naturally quick wit. With changes in paradigm and habit, you can get yourself into a daily routine of eating well while you’re away from home. Watch portions.

Their job is to act as a cushion to help stool pass through the last part of the body. They are present in all human bodies and typically do their job without our knowledge. The word has become so misused that to most people think that hemorrhoids are abnormal. Also called piles, they only become a problem when they are swollen or inflamed. There are two types of hemorrhoids, external and internal. The difference, obviously, is indicated by rather or not they are above or below the dentate line. A medical term, the dentate line is a marker between the first 2/3 of the anal canal and the last 1/3. When a hemorrhoid is loca...

Ever wanted to legally shoot your colleagues? Team building has been one of the most talked about management concepts over recent years. The theory is that by taking a group of people who all work together out of their regular work environment, and putting them through some exercises or challenges, they bond as a team and work better when they get back to the office. One of the most popular activities for achieving this is by taking people to play paintball. What exactly is paintball? Paintball is the name given to a wide range of combat games. Using special paint guns, opposing teams try to complete a range of challenges such as capturing the other team’s base, or reaching a given rendezvous point first. Each team uses a different colour of paint, and when a player shoots an opponent, the coloured paint capsule explodes on them, marking them as out of the game. Paintball events usually take place in woodland, although other environments such as mock ups of villages and open gr...

Balance The second you tell yourself you’re not allowed something your body instantly craves it, although this rule never seems to work with vegetables. If there’s something you love you don’t need to cut it out your diet completely to have a healthy life. You can have a huge lunch full of starch and carbohydrates but for dinner you need something a little lighter like a salad, you can even have a donut or a slice of chocolate cake so long as you balance it out with something like an apple for desert after the next meal. Don’t look at your diet like a restrictive lifestyle choice, it’s simply about give and take, a little compromise and balance. Save and Share From childhood we were always taught to clear our plates but this isn’t always the best attitude. We’re not children anymore and most of us don’t spent all day chasing our friends round a play ground, riding our bikes for fun and growing. Of course you don’t want to waste food but this mentality of not wasting food comes from...

We often feel overwhelmed with our busy lifestyles and life's problems often lead to feeling anxious and negative about situations, so how can we cut through the mental chaos to solve our problems without professional help? Here are simple tips to get you through a few common stressful situations. Our minds are equipped with all the tools needed to solve our problems. Therefore when we feel like we are about to throw a tantrum or have a break down over the status of a relationship, shape of our thighs or a miserable job, we should try to ask ourselves a question in the moment. By doing this we are allowing our brains to jump into productive mode, challenging ourselves to think about ways of solving a problem instead of sinking into a state of negativity and depression. A question automatically gets us to think, and moves us from a position of feeling incapable to one of feeling capable and empowered. For example, instead of “I can't do this, I feel too overwhelmed”, rather a...

Do you ever feel like all you do is wake up, go to work, eat, go back to bed and then start all over again?

Well of course you're making strides in the long run but sometimes the daily grind can just wear you down. Maybe your job doesn't even stink. If life doesn't seem really bad but more like just like beige the solution could be as simple as making an impromptu getaway. Ugh, what about money?

The key is to try and drop everything on a dime and just go – and the resulting euphoria or making it happen will be fa...

Try as we might to relax and let things develop on their own, we still spend a lot of time rushing about. Ruled by the hands of a clock, we often let little instances of self-care go before we give up on our obligations to work, school or others. If we fail to take care of ourselves because of all of this rushing around, then we ultimately pay the price in the end, sacrificing our health and well being in order to get everything done that needs to be. That being said, we don’t necessarily have to spend an hour in meditation every morning in order to balance out the stresses of the remainder of the day. We can steal tiny moments in between rounds of work and shopping, harnessing our inner power and balancing our chakras so that when the next upset comes along, our subtle energy system is clear enough to handle stress and distractions with ease. Once we become attuned to the movement of energy within our chakras, we can instantly send healing light and love through them, breaking up n...

Now we continue with our last discussion about basic measurements in physics . Comparison between mass and weight The mass of a body The mass of a body is the quantity of matter it contains ( more details: Equivalence of mass and energy ), and the basic SI unit of mass is the kilogram. The standard kilogram is the mass of a certain cylindrical piece of platinum-iridium alloy kept at Sevres . Its various multiples and submultiples are given below :     1 ton (t) = 1000 (kg)     1 kg       = 1000 gram (g)     1   g       = 1000 milligrams (mg)     1 mg      = 100000 micrograms (µ g )     The kilogram was originally intended to be equal to the mass of 1000 cubic centimeters (cm³ ) of pure water at the temperature of its maximum density , 4 °C. But a slight error was made at the time and the kilogram i...

Basic measurements in physics:1- Length 1- Measurement of length: Definition of the meter       The SI unit of length is the meter, originally defined as the distance, at 0 °C, between two lines on a platinum-iridium bar kept at the International Office of Weight and Measures at Sevres near Paris. Copies of this standard were made and sent to other countries. Meter prototype      The trouble with metal standard of this kind is that they are liable to undergo minute changes in length as the years go by. For instance, tests have revealed that the imperial standard yard has shrunk by a few parts in a million since it was made in 1854. Small thought this error is, the exacting requirements of modern science demand something better. The standard meter is, of course, open to the same objection. It was therefore decided to choose the wavelength of light as a length standard which we believe to be fixed and unalterable. So, in 1960...

What Is Dermatology? Dermatology is a branch of the medical field that focuses on the health and wellness of the skin, hair and nails. The skin is the largest and most exposed organ of the body. It sometimes requires medical knowledge and assistance to remain free of disease or infection, cosmetic abnormalities and the harsh effects of aging and sun damage. The science of dermatology includes both genders and all age ranges. It's just as common for a mother to obtain treatment for a severe diaper rash on her child as it is for an elderly person to seek cancer screening for a skin spot. Dermatology, as a whole, looks at the cause and cure for any problem skin, hair and nail related. Internal system problems often make their presence known initially by causing some type of flare up on the skin, whether it be a rash or discoloration. The field has made tremendous strides in accurately diagnosing illnesses and problems much sooner than ever before. Any changes from normal should ...

Your eyes can reveal a lot about you.  It is not just the windows to your soul as commonly as it is known – it turns out that the eyes will tell you more than that, including your health.  However, the eyes alone are not conclusive of the health condition you have.  It is still best that you consult your doctor and engage yourself to a thorough medical check-up to resolve the questions about your health that you’ve been battling about. First, bulging eyes:  This will show that the person may be suffering thyroid problems given that the abnormal thyroid hormone levels can bring about tissues neighbouring the eye to swell up. Second, droopy eyelids:  Having droopy eyes will indicate not just ageing but might actually exhibit that you are having symptoms of brain tumour or could have been an autoimmune disorder that is referred as myasthenia gravis – a condition  that deteriorates the body muscles. Third, uneven pupils:  Face the mirror and check whe...

Diamonds are possible one of the most sought after kinds of precious stones today. Their sparkle and lustre draws envious looks and unrivalled fascination. From diamond jewellery and being the symbol of marriage engagement to the birthstone for April, to functional industrial use, the diamond is truly versatile. Let's take a look at the genesis of this remarkable gem, which not only comes from the depths of the earth, but from surprising origins too. Yielded from the Earth The early stages of a diamond's life begins billions of years ago. It's remarkable to think that the carbon used in a diamond's creation was around when the Earth was still cooling down after its initial formation. Early trees and other flora were crushed and exposed to high pressures and heat, primarily from volcanic bursts, burying the carbon deeper. Because of this, diamonds are actually formed several kilometres below the Earth's surface. The resulting pressures change the atomic structure wit...

Einstein’s unified field theory:     A simple general law combining the four forces of nature (the electromagnetic force, gravitation , the strong force , and the weak force) :           1. An electromagnetic force is exerted between electrical charges and magnetic fields. 2. Gravitational force is related to mass and acceleration and can affect electromagnetic radiation. 3. The gluon of the strong force holds the nuclei of atoms together. The positive protons and quarks in an atom’s nucleus would repel each other and fly apart if it was not for the ‘‘glueballs’’ of the strong force that ‘‘bind’’ the quarks and protons.            4. The weak force is responsible for the slow nuclear processes that produce radiation, such as beta decay of the neutron to generate high-speed electrons. Albert Einstein spent the last thirty years of his life seeking to combine these ...
