Highly recommend reading The Good, The Bad, And The Jargon by @sarika008 which ends by stating that jargon is "unintelligible, unfit for humans, and best left in the trees" 💯🔥 https://t.co/dVnf8AM2rX

I'm taking a science communication course this summer and just learned that the word "jargon" comes from a French word meaning "the language and chattering of birds"🤯

Overall, this study provides valuable insight into the role culture plays in promoting PYD in Mexican-origin youth, highlighting the need to consider cultural context when designing and implementing PYD programs. #PositiveYouthDevelopment #CulturalContext #MexicanOriginYouth

@dp_moriarity 👏 following! i know of a group working on a virtual reality version of cyberball but don't think its anywhere close to the market.. have you seen any other virtual reality stress tests?

[Andrew D. Huberman, Ph.D. @hubermanlab]

Science-based tools to reduce stress:

1) In Real Time
Physiological Sigh: double-inhale (nasal), then extended exhale to lungs empty (mouth); 1-3X.

2) Raise Stress Threshold
Uncomfortable (but safe) cold exposure.
~12 min per week; 1-5min per session.
