Blinded by the Light - The Importance of Balance in Leading Happy, Healthy Lives

http://ifttt.com/images/no_image_card.png
https://cdn.pixabay.com/photo/2019/08/12/11/28/yin-yang-4401011_960_720.png

A couple of months ago, I wrote a post about dealing with negative people in our everyday lives. You know, the type that see misery in everything? They're like "energy vampires" that drain the sunny disposition out of everyone around them. Then a curious thing happened, I started noticing another kind of person, best illuminated by a story from the Titanic.

We all know what happened. Big "unsinkable" ship hits an iceberg without enough lifeboats. Many people die in the freezing cold waters of the north Atlantic. Going over it again, reminded me that the massive ship took just a few hours to sink, beginning with an almost unnoticeable list. I was struck at the many passengers who had a chance at getting a seat in some of the early lifeboats which went out half-empty. They preferred to stay in their nice warm rooms ever after seeing that the ship was listing and being warned by the steward to leave.

Then they went back into their warm cabins and died... https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/a/a2/Titanic_lifeboat.jpg It's almost as if there are people out there so blinded by the rose-colored glasses they're wearing, that they fail to respond to danger in time. I have a good friend in Europe that loves photography. A deep bond with nature finds him visiting national parks in order to get the perfect picture, ***alone***... He gets so consumed with framing his shots and hitting his angles, that he has no situational awareness whatsoever. He tunes out the entire world and only sees what's in his viewfinder. I joked with him one day that if he ever visited the US and went out west, that unlike his country, we have wild animals (and wild people) here who will do him harm, so he needed to be on point. This is the type of person that never listens to warnings and will cut people off who show concern for his well-being. # He spotted the iceberg, but had no binoculars https://allthatsinteresting.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/frederick-fleet.jpg On April 14 1912, British sailor Fredrick Fleet was on lookout duty and spotted the iceberg which the ship hit at 11:40 pm. He'd been denied a pair of binoculars which would have allowed him to see the hazard in time. By 12:25 am on April 15th the first boat was loaded up with women and children. It contained 28 people even though it had a capacity of 65... Passenger John Hugo Ross was still aboard Titanic in his pajamas and refused to believe the sinking was imminent, saying: "*It will take more than an iceberg to get me off this ship*." His body was never found... Masabumi Hosono had no such problem listening to the order to abandon ship. Since he was Japanese, he was refused a place on the lifeboat. However, he [seized his chance](https://allthatsinteresting.com/titanic-survivors/6) when the man's back was turned and hopped in one of the last two seats available. The difference is that he answered the knock on his cabin door and with quick thinking, saved his life. Instead of dreaming happy thoughts, Mr. Hosono processed the information right in front of him and took decisive *action*. # "*I wasn't going to die there*" http://media.masslive.com/breakingnews/photo/2011/09/9968851-large.jpg On September 11 2001, Susan Frederick was at her job on the 80th floor of the north tower at One World Trade Center. Her work at software company TheBEAST, brought her there on that fateful day. Feeling the shudder of the building as the plane hit, she began making her way down with the thought that she was [not about to die](https://www.masslive.com/news/2011/09/9-11_survivor_tale_it_was_not.html). Reaching the third floor just over an hour later, the building shook again. Unknown to them, the south tower had just collapsed. Four minutes after making it out of the doomed structure, they turned to watch the north tower collapse as well... # Rick Rescorla saved 2,700 lives https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hhPIAw9Q5dI We learn of the strange accounts of Port Authority employees ordering people to return to their offices as if everything would be alright. 9/11 heroes like Rick Rescorla [saved many lives](https://www.washingtonpost.com/archive/lifestyle/2001/10/28/a-tower-of-courage/c53e8244-3754-440f-84f8-51f841aff6c8/) by refusing to follow such an order. All of this points to the fact that a crucial balance needs to maintained between remaining positive, while also being ready to act in the face of danger. Taking off our rose-colored glasses when necessary, will allow us to see the world with clarity and truth. One day, It may just save your life...

Which Do You Use?

https://ipfs.busy.org/ipfs/QmZPaY8U6ZjUijo9GiqrgpiM2rsFakwgUDrBGtvktvdN4f
Hi Friends, Keeping your teeth clean and healthy is an important part of self care. Regular dentist visits are vital to your teeth’s long term success. Before I met my wife, I used a standard toothbrush for my whole life. Then, without asking, one day she bought me an electric toothbrush. Since then, I have used an electric toothbrush for the last 10+ years. The funny thing is, she used to have an electric toothbrush, but then went back to a regular for some unknown reason.

Today, my question is this: Which kind of toothbrush do you use? Was just curious more than anything! Thanks for coming by today, Brian

Declining global birth rates

http://ifttt.com/images/no_image_card.png
A study last year by the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development found that, for most major economies, rising productivity was a more important driver of gross domestic product growth between 2000 and 2017 on average than population growth or change in the employment rate. More than 90% of China’s potential growth in 2017 came from productivity increases, the most of any country and a few rungs ahead of the U.S. For Saudi Arabia, however, 62% came from population growth alone—and Nigeria is even more reliant than the Arab kingdom on the sheer size of its potential labor and consumer pool. France stands out for balancing increased productivity and population with higher employment, likely boosted by a healthy influx of working-age immigrants and its generous labor benefits. Population is just one of three factors influencing national economies. Productivity gains can make up some of the gaps as populations taper off and begin to shrink, but it's a much more challenging way to grow an economy and may not be sustainable over time: For most of the countries in the OECD’s study, the relative contribution of productivity to growth has fallen over time. Ultimately, no country will be left untouched by demographic decline. Governments will have to think creatively about ways to manage population, whether through state-sponsored benefits or family-planning edicts or discrimination protections, or else find their own path to sustainable economic growth with ever fewer native-born workers, consumers, and entrepreneurs. https://www.bloomberg.com/graphics/2019-global-fertility-crash/?srnd=businessweek-v2

The Birth of a Miracle: a birth story interview and an anthropological reflection

https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmNWEfebh8pE8s6Ac9tR1w7tSszf4N2D9s7FVnRJtFoUuX/miracle%20in%20me.jpg
# Miracles can be difficult to come by, but the act of birth is often described as such. ___

[Source](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h6oIbcr4IgM) ___ The ability to conceive, nurture within the body, then birth a new life is surely phenomenal. Everyone has their own unique experience with pregnancy and childbirth. Some mothers have a fantastic experience, while others go through horrific encounters. I interviewed Melody C. about her experiences with pregnancy and childbirth to learn from a mother exactly what their thoughts and feelings were surrounding this topic. Melody described her connection with God through the act of childbirth, that being able to bring life into the world was indeed a miracle. She recalled a growing excitement of the unknown as each day passed. The joy in her voice filled the room as she remembered waiting for the first movements, and shopping for maternity clothes so others might know that she’s pregnant. However, other people knowing she was pregnant meant that they knew she had sex. This made her feel a bit of insecurity because she grew up in a household where sex was taboo. ___ # A love for something that was not quite there yet began to develop deep in her heart. ___ Melody mentioned that she felt an overwhelming sense of responsibility to make sure that her child was born healthy. She began prenatal care in the second trimester, mostly because she didn’t know she was pregnant at first, and brought up some interesting points. The doctors at the time focused mainly, if not entirely, on taking different measurements to chart the fetus’s growth. There was no information exchanged on nutritional intake for the mother at these appointments. I asked Melody how having good health insurance and access to high quality doctors that only focused on statistics had made her feel. She responded, >“It put [me] at ease knowing the baby is growing per the charts correctly and I trusted all in my doctors. I had good doctors. I knew that if they saw anything wrong in the bloodwork, or anything like that, that I would immediately be sent to a specialist. So, I really had no worry about any of that.” Having the support of a qualified medical team clearly gave her more confidence about how she and her coming child were doing. Melody purchased books to learn about the nutritional and health aspects that were not covered in prenatal care. ___

[Source](http://www.maternityandmidwifery.co.uk/events/london-2016/poster-presentations/) ___ ## Seeking the best medical care possible was the only thing Melody cared about with the astounding pressure to give birth to a healthy child on her back. ___ Melody called the hospital when she went into labor at 5am and the doctor told her that he had been delivering babies all night long and that women were in labor in the hallways. This made her very distraught because it was the best hospital in the area. The doctor then told her that a newer hospital had just opened a brand-new delivery wing and that she should go there. Melody left for the new hospital after she took her time to shower, recalling that she had to get back in the shower because she had forgotten to shave her legs. She was in excruciating pain by the time she arrived at the hospital and settled into a room. In agonizing pain, around 10AM, Melody requested an epidural to relieve the pain to a more manageable level. The epidural was administered and she instantly fell asleep. She woke back up around 2PM and recounted the dire need to poop, shouting to the nurses that she was about to poop on the doctor. They told her to keep pushing because that’s the baby coming, and that it would be okay if she pooped on the doctor. ___ ### Melody recalled a moment between this time and the actual delivery which quickly changed the entire mood of the conversation from joyous to somber. ___ Everything was going as it should have when suddenly the monitors began screaming their alarms indicating a problem with the child. Her child had flipped over in the womb and was now pressed against the umbilical cord, effectively choking out its lifeline. Someone in the room quickly jumped on her bed and began pressing as hard as they could on her belly in order to get her child to move off of the umbilical cord. “Eventually [he] did move off the umbilical cord,” She recalled with relief. Her pain had been significantly reduced from the epidural and when her child was delivered, she said that the pain almost completely subsided. She expressed happiness that her child had been born healthy, but she was exhausted and needed sleep and thus requested that her child be taken to the nursery down the hall. Melody chuckled, stating that she was about to spend the rest of her life with her child, one night was all she was asking. ___

[Source](http://capturedgracebyerin.com/birth-story-baby-audreay/)<> ___ # Melody seemed to have had an overall good experience with the birth of her child. ___ I asked her if there was anything other than the change in hospitals which had gone astray or disappointed her about her birthing experience. To which she replied, she just wished the epidural had been administered earlier. ___ ### Melody is a retired air traffic controller who, though well educated, has little history of medical knowledge. ___ Thus, while the birthing process has been heavily medicalized, Melody did not self-medicalize the birthing process and instead trusted heavily on the medicalization of the health professionals. One might say that she self-medicalized through the nutritional books, but the semantics of such requires deeper research of the authority of the authors Melody read. Medicalization being the use of medical language by medical institutions to assess and proceed in treating an individual (Halfmann, 2011). Self-medicalization being the individual’s unique approach to understanding and treating themselves in respect to health concerns (Fainzang, 2013). ___ # Systemic flaws exist in Western medical practices which disempowers many pregnant women, putting certain groups at higher risk than others (GBD, 2017). ___ However, Melody was able to advocate for herself and her needs because of several factors working in her favor. Knowing what she needed in the first place began through further educating herself on the birthing process with books and other educational materials . Being moderately educated, having quality health insurance, and being a white, middleclass woman gave Melody better grounding to advocate from in a flawed system (2017). Fortunately for Melody, she did not have to experience the maltreatment and malpractice that has been typically correlated with people of color and low-quality insurance (2017). ___

[Source](https://www.istockphoto.com/photos/doctor) ___ ## Melody had been more or less forced into going to a hospital where she had never met any of the doctors. ___ I asked her how she felt about having someone she’d never met delivering her baby. She told me that she could have cared less if the neighbor came down to deliver her baby by the time she was in labor. I found this interesting as it is in stark contrast to the ideas behind the intimate stranger and the weekend effect which delays labor in some women and nonhuman primates (Davis-Floyd, 2009). Perhaps Melody’s full trust in the medical professionals removed any sort of barrier which might have otherwise been experienced. However, she did mention that she felt a shift from her vagina being a sexual organ to a reproductive organ, and thus any shame surrounding such had also shifted and dissolved with the new perspective. ___ ## Dr. Lyerly, a research professor at Duke, describes five qualities that make a good birth, these are agency, personal security, connectedness, respect, and knowledge (Grose, 2019). ___ Melody’s birth experience definitely qualifies as a good birth under these standards. She felt confident in herself and her trust of the doctors when she had to change plans and go to a different hospital. Her sense of personal security was high being in a care facility that had just been opened with new equipment. She felt respected by the staff. And the books that she had read prior to the experience gave her the knowledge she required to have agency, to feel secure, connected, respected, and confident in her thoughts. ___

[Source](https://www.latitudesdecor.com/blogs/news/mothers-day-across-the-world) ___ ### This story is but one woman’s unique experience out of billions of women alive today who have or will give birth. ___ Childbirth is exclusively reserved for those who have female genitalia. Thus, a large portion of the human population will never experience it firsthand. However, while those with male genitalia cannot experience it personally, we all as a species can cooperate to reduce the risk of more bad births occurring. Maternal death rates are at 1 and 190 worldwide, with hemorrhaging and hypertension as the leading causes when these deaths are typically preventable (WHO, 2019). Certain states within the United States have drastically reduced their maternal death rates, such as California with the implementation of standardized emergency toolkits (Markow, 2019). We should all, especially the medical industry though, take note from these practices in order to do our best to ensure that the mothers of our world receive quality care and attention during pregnancy and birth so that they all can have a chance at having a good birth. ___
