Healthy work life balance as community managers finalAshley Nicolson
We've heard of self-care a lot in recent years but why is it extremely important specifically for us community managers? Showing our “human” side helps us connect with our members, but this also means we can be susceptible to the negative effects of our community.
We take a look at how we can establish and encourage practises to keep work and community at a healthy distance from our personal time, as well as tips on promoting and advocating self-care within the community to encourage a more healthier attitude towards mental and physical health and to each other.
Sometimes despite the very obvious, with age we fail to realize and acknowledge that some of our actions knowingly or unknowingly have significant impact on our as well others lives. One such wrong notion believed by people above age of 60 is that their interpretation of remaining fit as synonymous to being employed.
This article does not offer any great insight rather it is an attempt to give new perspective to Declutter our mind. The views expressed in this article have no intentions of hurting the sentiments of older people rather it is an attempt to bridge the gap and to understand the obvious that aging is irreversible process and one must learn to age gracefully.

CRISPR-Cas9, a revolutionary gene-editing tool, holds immense potential to reshape medicine, agriculture, and our understanding of life. But like any powerful tool, it comes with ethical considerations.
Unveiling CRISPR: This naturally occurring bacterial defense system (crRNA & Cas9 protein) fights viruses. Scientists repurposed it for precise gene editing (correction, deletion, insertion) by targeting specific DNA sequences.
The Promise: CRISPR offers exciting possibilities:
Gene Therapy: Correcting genetic diseases like cystic fibrosis.
Agriculture: Engineering crops resistant to pests and harsh environments.
Research: Studying gene function to unlock new knowledge.
The Peril: Ethical concerns demand attention:
Off-target Effects: Unintended DNA edits can have unforeseen consequences.
Eugenics: Misusing CRISPR for designer babies raises social and ethical questions.
Equity: High costs could limit access to this potentially life-saving technology.
The Path Forward: Responsible development is crucial:
International Collaboration: Clear guidelines are needed for research and human trials.
Public Education: Open discussions ensure informed decisions about CRISPR.
Prioritize Safety and Ethics: Safety and ethical principles must be paramount.
CRISPR offers a powerful tool for a better future, but responsible development and addressing ethical concerns are essential. By prioritizing safety, fostering open dialogue, and ensuring equitable access, we can harness CRISPR's power for the benefit of all. (2998 characters)
Medical Technology Tackles New Health Care Demand - Research Report - March 2...pchutichetpong
M Capital Group (“MCG”) predicts that with, against, despite, and even without the global pandemic, the medical technology (MedTech) industry shows signs of continuous healthy growth, driven by smaller, faster, and cheaper devices, growing demand for home-based applications, technological innovation, strategic acquisitions, investments, and SPAC listings. MCG predicts that this should reflects itself in annual growth of over 6%, well beyond 2028.
According to Chris Mouchabhani, Managing Partner at M Capital Group, “Despite all economic scenarios that one may consider, beyond overall economic shocks, medical technology should remain one of the most promising and robust sectors over the short to medium term and well beyond 2028.”
There is a movement towards home-based care for the elderly, next generation scanning and MRI devices, wearable technology, artificial intelligence incorporation, and online connectivity. Experts also see a focus on predictive, preventive, personalized, participatory, and precision medicine, with rising levels of integration of home care and technological innovation.
The average cost of treatment has been rising across the board, creating additional financial burdens to governments, healthcare providers and insurance companies. According to MCG, cost-per-inpatient-stay in the United States alone rose on average annually by over 13% between 2014 to 2021, leading MedTech to focus research efforts on optimized medical equipment at lower price points, whilst emphasizing portability and ease of use. Namely, 46% of the 1,008 medical technology companies in the 2021 MedTech Innovator (“MTI”) database are focusing on prevention, wellness, detection, or diagnosis, signaling a clear push for preventive care to also tackle costs.
In addition, there has also been a lasting impact on consumer and medical demand for home care, supported by the pandemic. Lockdowns, closure of care facilities, and healthcare systems subjected to capacity pressure, accelerated demand away from traditional inpatient care. Now, outpatient care solutions are driving industry production, with nearly 70% of recent diagnostics start-up companies producing products in areas such as ambulatory clinics, at-home care, and self-administered diagnostics.
Navigating Challenges: Mental Health, Legislation, and the Prison System in B...Guillermo Rivera
This conference will delve into the intricate intersections between mental health, legal frameworks, and the prison system in Bolivia. It aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the current challenges faced by mental health professionals working within the legislative and correctional landscapes. Topics of discussion will include the prevalence and impact of mental health issues among the incarcerated population, the effectiveness of existing mental health policies and legislation, and potential reforms to enhance the mental health support system within prisons.
ICH Guidelines for Pharmacovigilance.pdfNEHA GUPTA
The "ICH Guidelines for Pharmacovigilance" PDF provides a comprehensive overview of the International Council for Harmonisation of Technical Requirements for Pharmaceuticals for Human Use (ICH) guidelines related to pharmacovigilance. These guidelines aim to ensure that drugs are safe and effective for patients by monitoring and assessing adverse effects, ensuring proper reporting systems, and improving risk management practices. The document is essential for professionals in the pharmaceutical industry, regulatory authorities, and healthcare providers, offering detailed procedures and standards for pharmacovigilance activities to enhance drug safety and protect public health.
Defecation
Normal defecation begins with movement in the left colon, moving stool toward the anus. When stool reaches the rectum, the distention causes relaxation of the internal sphincter and an awareness of the need to defecate. At the time of defecation, the external sphincter relaxes, and abdominal muscles contract, increasing intrarectal pressure and forcing the stool out
The Valsalva maneuver exerts pressure to expel faeces through a voluntary contraction of the abdominal muscles while maintaining forced expiration against a closed airway. Patients with cardiovascular disease, glaucoma, increased intracranial pressure, or a new surgical wound are at greater risk for cardiac dysrhythmias and elevated blood pressure with the Valsalva maneuver and need to avoid straining to pass the stool.
Normal defecation is painless, resulting in passage of soft, formed stool
CONSTIPATION
Constipation is a symptom, not a disease. Improper diet, reduced fluid intake, lack of exercise, and certain medications can cause constipation. For example, patients receiving opiates for pain after surgery often require a stool softener or laxative to prevent constipation. The signs of constipation include infrequent bowel movements (less than every 3 days), difficulty passing stools, excessive straining, inability to defecate at will, and hard feaces
IMPACTION
Fecal impaction results from unrelieved constipation. It is a collection of hardened feces wedged in the rectum that a person cannot expel. In cases of severe impaction the mass extends up into the sigmoid colon.
DIARRHEA
Diarrhea is an increase in the number of stools and the passage of liquid, unformed feces. It is associated with disorders affecting digestion, absorption, and secretion in the GI tract. Intestinal contents pass through the small and large intestine too quickly to allow for the usual absorption of fluid and nutrients. Irritation within the colon results in increased mucus secretion. As a result, feces become watery, and the patient is unable to control the urge to defecate. Normally an anal bag is safe and effective in long-term treatment of patients with fecal incontinence at home, in hospice, or in the hospital. Fecal incontinence is expensive and a potentially dangerous condition in terms of contamination and risk of skin ulceration
HEMORRHOIDS
Hemorrhoids are dilated, engorged veins in the lining of the rectum. They are either external or internal.
FLATULENCE
As gas accumulates in the lumen of the intestines, the bowel wall stretches and distends (flatulence). It is a common cause of abdominal fullness, pain, and cramping. Normally intestinal gas escapes through the mouth (belching) or the anus (passing of flatus)
FECAL INCONTINENCE
Fecal incontinence is the inability to control passage of feces and gas from the anus. Incontinence harms a patient’s body image

MindBody Hacksheet 1
1. Anxiety & Depression Hack-sheet 1
With long term historical clinical depression and anxiety, ongoing face to face professional
treatment is also recommended alongside these factsheets.
2. How I can help
I call these worksheets- Hack-sheets as
they help to cut through-
stuck emotions
negative thoughts and beliefs
body stiffness and fatigue
They include some simple practical
options, to help you balance and self
soothe.
3. How I can help
I will show you some simple practical
tools for –
Balancing yourself
Self soothing
Focusing your mind
I’ve learned some of this knowledge
through- personal & professional
counselling & coaching training,
philosophy, & self development work.
4. How I can help
Included are some breathing techniques
I’ve learned from-
‘Wim Hof’ cold therapy training
&
“Systema’ Russian martial arts
http://systemabrighton.co.uk
5. They have helped many people to
reduce anxiety and depression and
live more purposeful happy lives.
If you find my free content useful.
I’ve also included links to my
affordable mind, body & lifestyle
hack-sheets.
If like many other people you are
experiencing feeling paralysed with
panic, anxiety or exhausted by
depression;
then please read on!
6. My Personal Experience
Anxiety & Depression
Why have I put these two polarised emotional experiences
together?
In my personal and professional experience they seem to be
two sides of the same coin.
Let me tell you a little bit of personal experience, I found
myself like many people these days, having panic attacks at
work about 15 years ago. They lasted until I learned to
interpret them differently in a more helpful and informative
way.
I wound up in a career I hadn't fully intended to be part of.
I didn't feel like I fitted in, even though I could act or
pretend I did a lot of the time.
Eventually the pretending ran out of steam, I had got in a
lifestyle cycle that was not sustainable.
7. This included, negative thinking about myself and others,
dreading going to work, not feeling appreciated or valued.
Binge drinking and excessive recreational drug use became a
coping strategy.
Excessive craving for excitement and pleasure seeking is
common in many professions these days.
Socializing and partying was a big part of the career
lifestyle in London, and a distraction and coping strategy
for many people.
8. I don't believe all hedonism is bad, on the contrary, but in
situations like this, it's often an avoidance tactic, and a
substitute for genuine happiness.
For me; this led to not enough sleep and frequent hangovers,
feeling burnt out.
As well as excessive use of coffee, sugar and fatty food to
substitute my lack of energy.
9. I dreaded mornings when I felt the most depressed and trapped, I
became increasingly more irritable, isolated and a combination of fear
and shame about where I was and who I was.
In my case, as with many of the clients I've treated,
there are ‘Micro belief systems' made up of beliefs
about yourself in the world.
Some are truer than others.
As well as an overarching ‘Macro belief systems' based on ideas and
beliefs about the wider world in relation to you.
They are all influenced by values inherited from our families,
communities, religion, career choices, & political influence.
Check out- https://www.time-to-change.org.uk for more on work
related mental health.
10. Soon we will be looking at the three MindBody
principles shortly.
They include some simple and helpful
techniques and tools.
As well as the two most common hurdles or
stumbling blocks to self improvement.
But next my professional experience.
11. My Professional Experience
Over the last 10 years, I’ve worked in the NHS and in schools as a counsellor.
As well as running my own private practice.
I learned to use of some very helpful models including Cognitive Behavioural
Therapy & Transactional Analysis.
As well as Embodiment (body awareness) coaching tools and techniques that
help to reduce psychological and emotional symptoms.
Some of the biggest obstacles of wellbeing and good mental health that make
up our shadow traits are – denial, blame, avoidance, and a lack of trust in self
and others.
This can look like not listening to our inner wisdom or the wisdom of others who
genuinely care. A good way to spot it in yourself is to notice how triggered you
feel when someone challenges you or offers caring advice. How quickly do you
bite their head off or run away and ignore them hoping to never speak to them
again?
12. The 1nd
Hurdle
Stigma & Shame
The unhelpful cultural stigma around addressing 'mental
illness' and even talking about mental health.
These also include admitting failure, or vulnerability,
often judged in the corporate world as weakness.
Can you imagine applying the same approach to something far
less important like running your car, i.e. 'never taking it
for a service and never learning anything about your car
from an expert.
Would you expect the car to run well or to last a long time?
Why then, do we culturally tend to feel that we shouldn’t
need to learn new things about how we are on a cognitive and
emotional level?
13. The 2nd
Hurdle
Secondly - once someone goes to the trouble of getting help, sometimes they
dismiss much of what they discover with reasons like-
I don't have the time or resources
I can’t or don’t want to change myself; I want others to change
I don’t want to try new things
It’s normal to feel a bit unsure and even a bit scared to make changes.
The timing and stage of life can be important factors to consider. But in my experience long
term benefits only come from the internal changes and commitments that we make.
So this type of self-development work, is most effective for people who have typically already
worked through some of the first two hurdles already, and ideally invested in some sort of
counselling or coaching already.
You are ready to make fundamental changes towards self-improvement. And you are open-
minded and willing to try new ideas and strategies, and you are committed to radically
growing a new happier responsible purposeful life.
14. The 2nd
Hurdle
You will also know that there isn't a magic pill or button.
It is you alone who has the power and the responsibility to
change your life for the better.
I only run these kinds of focussed counselling & coaching
courses for people who meet these criteria, if that sounds
like you, then great! please continue reading.
15. The 1st Principle Of MindBody
Wellness
Look after your mind-use it!
We can grow new neurons!
Contrary to previous scientific beliefs
Amazing!, right?
This is arguably the most important-
it involves, ongoing frequent self
development.
Including- any learning that improves your
understanding of yourself in some capacity
in the world
16. The 2nd
Principle Of MindBody Wellness
A body practice
Any activities that you use
your body to move, engage,
compete & improve on
Make use of your body for fun & growth as much
as you can, you only get one body. So use it
wisely, so it will last as long as possible
Makes sense?
17. The 3rd
Principle Of MindBody
Wellness
Lifecycles
Routine patterns that contribute to
your positive wellbeing, including-
sleep, nutrition, relationships &
habits
Obvious right? Yet often we don’t
18. Work related Anxiety &
Depression
One of the epidemics in our society is anxiety and depression, it often shows up
in the workplace. Employers are being forced to acknowledge they need to do
something to help their employees to relieve stress and remove anxiety and
depression from the workplace.
In my experience, the symptoms of depression are often natural reactions to
aspects of dysfunctional environments and lifestyles.
In short, the problem is- too much pressure and demand for individuals to
continuously deliver more and more profit, to pay higher and higher bills for less
and less personal gain.
Less and less quality free time, often due to exhaustion and remaining hyper-
vigilant and feeling unable to relax when not at work. As well as not enough
meaningful engagement and connection with friends and family. In many cases,
not enough feeling valued or meaning in life.
We have to hold the business world accountable for this, we were not put here to
sit staring at screens, typing in numbers all day to make a few people a lot
wealthier than most of us.
19. A Common Story I Hear From
Clients Is This
Steve works in sales, he used to enjoy his job, then a new boss arrived and
things changed.
His new boss expected him to change his plans short notice to meet sales targets
on demand. He started arranging short notice meetings often very early or at the
end of the day.
Steve wasn't able to keep his commitment to his football team, and he saw less of
his partner who complained about it.
Rather than talk to them about the problem, he started lying about what he was
doing as he knew his partner would tell him not to put up with his bosses
unreasonable demands. But he was scared of confrontation, as well as this, he
lied to his football team about when he was free to train with them and they
decided to drop him to a substitute position to protect the team from further let
down.
20. All this led to Steve feeling more and more bad about himself until eventually he
couldn't find the strength to get out of bed one day and had to be signed off sick
for an extended period.
Thankfully Steve’s work was obliged to provide him with an EAP counsellor, and
fortunately for Steve he learned in counselling that he was stressed, anxious and
depressed about the compromised situation he found himself in.
21. Due to his new found confidence and assertiveness!
Steve's productivity improved and he realized how important his mental health,
wellbeing and living a purposeful life really was
So we can see from this, all of the above can lead to -
anxiety, depression, panic attacks, insomnia, substance & alcohol misuse & eating
disorders.
A lot more people than the official stats admit suffer from one or more of these
symptoms at any point.
Do you really believe the pharmaceutical and the corporate industries really want
you to know, just how bad for you, the lifestyle being imposed on you really is?
22. But also Steve learned that it wasn't his fault, and when he spoke to his colleagues
he found out others had also been having similar feeling about work.
This helped Steve to feel a lot better and he decided to go and speak with his new
boss about how work had been affecting his health. They agreed together that
Steve would not have to miss football practice again, as this was very important to
him and meetings from now on should be planned. Short notice meetings were
voluntary to attend, unless there was an emergency.
23. The 8 Pillars
The next page contains the 8 pillar
principles. They came to me in a creative
inspirational insight after my first Wim Hof cold
therapy training.
I’ve put them together as a type of graph,
graphic equalizer or map towards better self
awareness
24. The 8 Pillars
This is a map to wellness I have designed, I like to visualise it like a graph
Acceptance- as must as possible of what occurs in life, helps us remain calmer
Surrender- to what you can't change, save your energy for other issues
Commitment- as much as possible in any situation, helps us to give our best
Responsibility- to yourself & others, helps us to be reliable and safe
Forgiveness- how much you can forgive yourself & others? This helps us to let go
Respect- for yourself & others as much as you can, helps us to care
Trust- yourself, your process & others, where possible to to helps us enjoy the
journey
Giving- what you can back to contribute to those that need your support
These principles can coexist in any order as such, and we can use them as a map or
graph towards good mental and physical health. Deficits can help to tell us where we
are challenged or stuck. I’ve written more on them on a separate pdf.
25. I hope you found this useful
Food for thought!
When we are triggered and feel unsafe it's likely that most of the variables of the pillars will be quite low. But if
we can find a way to relax in any situation, we might be able to create the conditions for shifting the triggered
automatic fight/flight response and make use of some of these principles.
When we can make use of at least some of the pillars, even just one or two, then we can approach a situation
more objectively. They can help to make some space between our sense of self and our overwhelming
emotional reaction. Then we have more of a chance of improving our situation.
If we cannot move from fight or flight, then it is quite unlikely that we will be able to break an embedded
unconscious pattern.
One final important point !- when we feel depressed and anxious we usually don’t feel like doing anything that
might be good for us. It’s important to hold in mind that our thoughts and feelings are not always out allies! We
might need to do the opposite of what they tell us.
