Universities should strengthen support structures and governments should improve funding programs to support partnerships that can inform policy. Expanding networks and documenting outcomes could help leverage relationships between higher education, civil society and government to address social issues.
An ant works hard every day without supervision. A lion in charge notices this and thinks the ant could produce even more with oversight. He hires a cockroach supervisor who implements extensive paperwork and meetings, taking up the ant's time. More managers are brought on, growing the bureaucracy. Production decreases but the managers justify their roles. An audit concludes the department is overstaffed, and the ant is fired for a poor attitude.
This document discusses the potential for establishing a Community Investment Fund for Greater Victoria based on models in Nova Scotia, Quebec, the US, and UK. Such a fund would issue community bonds to raise capital from investors for community enterprises, assets, and affordable housing.

This document discusses stress, how the body responds to stress, and strategies for managing stress. It explains that stress is the body's physiological and emotional response to stimuli that disturb homeostasis. The body's alarm phase in response to stressors triggers the sympathetic nervous system and hormones like cortisol. Over time, chronic stress can lead to illness if the body cannot recover. While short-term stress from important events can be helpful, long-term distress is harmful to health. The document recommends techniques for managing stress like exercise, social support, nutrition, sleep, and cognitive relaxation strategies.
The document discusses various forms of complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) such as mind-body practices like meditation and yoga, whole medical systems like naturopathy, body-based practices like acupuncture, and energy medicine like biofeedback.

Research shows the practices increase relaxation and alertness, improve cholesterol levels, and decrease depression. When combined with yoga, pranayama (breathing exercises), and knowledge, these techniques help manage stress at the mind and physiological levels by balancing hormones, metabolism, and emotions to produce a calm, confident, and composed state.
The document discusses stress, its effects on the body, and various techniques for managing stress and promoting wellness. It defines stress and distinguishes between distress/chronic stress versus eustress. Chronic psychological stress can suppress the immune system and cause issues like ulcers if cortisol levels remain elevated. Meditation and relaxation techniques as well as healthy behaviors like exercise, sleep, and diet can help reduce stress and promote wellness by balancing cortisol and other stress hormones in the body. Regular meditation in particular has long term benefits and similar effects to medication in reducing stress responses.
This document discusses stress, its causes and effects, and natural ways to manage it. It defines stress as any physical or emotional factor that threatens health and requires a response. Signs of stress include changes in mood, sleep, aches and pains, and vital signs. Stress can weaken the immune system and elevate cortisol levels, increasing health risks. The document recommends making stress management a daily habit using techniques like deep breathing, relaxation, exercise, diet, sleep, humor and seeking help when overwhelmed. Naturopathic medicine provides natural therapies and works collaboratively with patients to address the root causes of illness and promote overall health and well-being.
Yoga is an ancient practice originating in India involving physical postures, breathing exercises, and meditation. The document discusses the evidence that yoga provides health benefits such as reducing stress, anxiety, and hypertension. It summarizes several studies showing yoga can effectively treat conditions like carpal tunnel syndrome, arthritis, and back pain. The document concludes that yoga is generally safe when practiced properly and can be a useful treatment option or lifestyle recommendation for patients.
The document discusses stress and how to transcend it. It describes how stress is the body's response to demands and changes. There are two pathways for the stress response - through the endocrine and nervous systems. The endocrine system activates hormones like cortisol and adrenaline, while the nervous system stimulates the adrenal glands. This causes the "fight or flight" response of increased heart rate and metabolism. Chronic stress leads to disease through a vicious cycle. However, techniques like breathing, relaxation, exercise, and diet can help manage stress and promote well-being.
This document provides a lesson plan for teaching 5th and 6th grade students about stress. It defines stress, explains how stress physically affects the body through the release of hormones like cortisol and adrenaline, and how it impacts various bodily systems. The lesson teaches students how to identify stress in themselves, prevent stress from becoming overwhelming, and reduce stress through exercises like deep breathing, neck relaxation, reframing negative thoughts, and more. It assesses students' understanding of these key stress concepts.

A young couple moves into a new neighborhood. The wife criticizes her neighbor's laundry hanging on the line, saying it is not very clean and she doesn't know how to wash correctly. This goes on for a month until one day the wife notices the laundry is clean and comments that the neighbor must have learned how to wash properly. The husband then reveals that he had simply cleaned their windows that morning, implying that the wife's critical view of the neighbor was due to her own state of mind rather than the neighbor's laundry. The story suggests that one should check one's own mindset before judging others.
