OBOION COUNTY NURSING HOMES is a registered 501 C 3 non-profit organization whose mission is to provide quality care to people with Alzheimer’s and other life limiting conditions.
As a nurse, I’ve been using a variety of forms of self-therapy to help me deal with stress and anxiety. Self-help techniques that are easy to implement, like taking a yoga class or exercising at home, can be a big help when you’re dealing with anxiety and stress. But it can also be helpful to do it while you’re at work. I’ve been incorporating yoga and meditation into my work routine, so I’m quite good at this.
Ive also found that sometimes trying to do too hard a task can help me relax and feel like Ican do the task. For instance, Im a lot better at playing the guitar when Im at home. And Im better at playing a piano when Im at home.
I think our own research has shown that it makes me feel really calm and peaceful when Im at home, and Im a lot calmer when Im at work. This makes me feel like Im not doing anything at all. I feel like Im not even doing anything important. I feel really good when Im at home, but Im not really doing anything. And when Im at work, I feel like Im not doing anything important.
The reason why the “at home” and “at work” feelings are so mixed up is because our own research has shown that, in general, the better our self-awareness is, the better we care about what we’re doing. A person with self-awareness is able to say, “Hmm… every time I leave my house and go to a restaurant, I end up ordering a salad.
The difference between those two statements is that self-aware people take notice of themselves. This means they take the time to write down their actions. They look at their habits and routines, and they take the time to think about it. A person without self-awareness just hits the bottle and doesn’t look back.
Our friends at the National Center for Health Statistics have come up with a neat way to measure self-awareness. They take a survey of over 2,000 Americans, asking them to think about a variety of topics and give the responses a number between 1 and 10. The more self-aware a person is, the lower their score. The National Center for Health Statistics reports that only 3.5% of Americans score below the median, while 23% take the median as their own best score.
So what does this mean? Just to recap, it means that the higher a person’s self-awareness, the lower their chances of getting hit by a truck.
That’s right, that’s right. The National Institutes of Health (NIH) reports that of Americans who take the survey, 3.6 percent have a score that falls into the “extreme low risk” category, while 8.5 percent score low risk, and 36 percent report they are in the “moderate” category.
Of course, the best way to know the risk of being hit by a truck is to ask yourself this question: “What do I need to do to hit the truck?” If you are on the low risk end of the spectrum, you do not need to do anything. Of course, if you are on the high risk end of the spectrum, you might need to drive more cautiously.
