Piece of advice: if you are a parent, watch out what the Finns are doing and copy them. It's one of the few countries that pays closer attention to their youth. They observe, study, and adjust all the time!
For example, they are now gradually reversing their decade-long, tech-heavy education model to combat declining cognitive performance and severe classroom distractions. Schools are scaling back on devices in favor of printed textbooks, handwriting instruction, and pen-and-paper assignments.
One reason fasting helps many people is because insulin finally gets a chance to come down.
Every time you eat, insulin rises.
If you eat all day, insulin stays busy all day.
And when insulin stays high, fat burning stays low.
Sometimes the stomach is not refusing to shrink.
The body is just constantly being interrupted.

Children need sleep. It is common sense.
Waking up your children at 4 am to go to school is ignorance.
Pre-teens (9 to 12 years old) should be asleep by 9 pm and wake up at 6 am.
Early schoolers (5 to 8 years old) should be asleep by 8 pm and wake up at 6 am.
Preschoolers (3 to 5 years old) should be asleep by 8 pm and wake up at 7 am.
Toddlers should sleep. They should not go to any school or day care.
Children must all take a 30-minute to 1-hour afternoon nap.
Sleep is necessary for brain development, hormonal health and mental hygiene.
We are raising human beings, not robots.
I have watched Dr Gikonyo under cross examination and what struck me is that some men reach an age where intimidation stops working on them.
There is a certain calmness that comes from having seen governments come and go, presidents rise and fall, ministers behave like small gods, and public storms disappear after a few weeks. You could see a man who was not auditioning for approval from the room, the lawyers, the cameras or the political crowd outside.
That is what made it interesting. Kenya is full of people who tremble the moment power enters the room. They start calculating what to say, who might be offended, which side is watching and how tomorrowโs headlines may read. Dr Gikonyo looked like someone who has outlived that fear.
At some point in life, the most dangerous person in any room is not the loudest one. It is the old man who no longer needs anything from anyone.
Kenyaโs greatest challenge isnโt just policy failure, itโs a crisis of thought. Are we trapped in elite mediocrity, chasing Western narratives while neglecting the deep wisdom within our own roots? In this episode, โOur Elites Not Organic to Society,โ @wmnjoya asks: Why do we seek answers from a collapsing global order, yet shy away from our indigenous knowledge? Without a strong philosophical foundation, our institutions remain fragile and disconnected from who we are.

At bedtime the 8 yo told me his teacher said: "Think of your mind like a pond full of fish and each fish is a feeling. Try to be the pond, not the fish." And all I can say is primary school has significantly improved.

The earth is just spinning through infinite darkness at 67,000 miles per hour and somehow it also made blueberries?? And laughing?? And the feeling of sun on your face?? What is this place. What a an absolute gift.
When simulation becomes the norm, it weakens the human capacity for discernment. As a result, our social bonds close in upon themselves, forming self-referential circuits that no longer expose us to reality. We thus come to live within bubbles, impermeable to one another. Feeling threatened by anyone who is different, we grow unaccustomed to encounter and dialogue. In this way, polarization, conflict, fear and violence spread. What is at stake is not merely the risk of error, but a transformation in our very relationship with truth.
THINGS ANIMALS KNOW THAT HUMANS DON'T:
1. Elephants can detect rain falling 150 miles away through vibrations in the ground, felt through their feet, and will begin walking toward it before any meteorological instrument registers the incoming storm.
2. Dogs can smell cancer, Parkinson's disease, epileptic seizures before they happen, and changes in blood sugar with accuracy rates that consistently outperform early-stage medical testing equipment.
3. Sharks can detect one drop of blood diluted across an Olympic swimming pool worth of water. Their electrosensory system can also detect the heartbeat of a hidden animal through solid sand.
4. Pigeons have magnetite crystals embedded in their beaks,a biological compass that allows them to navigate using the Earth's magnetic field with an accuracy that GPS navigation still cannot consistently match.
5. Crows can recognize and remember individual human faces for years. They hold grudges, pass information about specific humans to their offspring, and have been documented leaving gifts for humans who treated them kindly.
6. Bees make collective decisions democratically. When a hive needs a new home, scouts return and perform dances indicating different locations other bees evaluate and vote, and the option with the most sustained enthusiasm wins.
7. Mantis shrimps can see 16 types of color receptors compared to humans' three. They perceive colors, ultraviolet, and polarized light simultaneously experiencing a visual reality so complex humans have no framework to even imagine it.
8. Migratory birds navigate partly by seeing the Earth's magnetic field as a visual overlay on their normal vision essentially they have a built-in map projected onto their sight that humans are completely blind to.
9. Whales sing in dialects. Different populations have distinct songs that are culturally passed down, evolve over time, and change when populations come into contact with each other exactly like human language evolution.
10. Rats show measurable empathy. In experiments they consistently freed trapped companions even when doing so gave them no reward and would share food with hungry strangers before eating themselves.
11. Octopuses have neurons distributed throughout their arms each arm can taste, feel, problem-solve, and act semi-independently of the brain. They experience the world as eight semi-separate thinking entities simultaneously.
12. Elephants are among the only animals that recognize death as death. They return to the bones of deceased family members years later, handle them carefully, and display behavior that has no practical survival function only what looks like grief.
13. Dolphins have been documented teaching their young to use tools specifically placing sea sponges on their snouts to protect themselves while foraging on sharp ocean floors. This is culturally transmitted knowledge, not instinct.
14. Some species of jellyfish are biologically immortal. When stressed or aging, Turritopsis dohrnii reverts to its juvenile state and restarts its life cycle,it has no known natural lifespan limit.
15. Cats don't meow at other cats in the wild. The meow was developed specifically and exclusively as a communication tool directed at humans,they learned to talk to us in a frequency that mimics an infant's cry because it gets results.
