The document advocates promoting a growth mindset in workplaces and among students to foster lifelong learning and achievement.
Thermal energy, also called heat energy, is the transfer of energy between objects due to a temperature difference. Temperature is measured in degrees Celsius and indicates how hot an object is, while heat is measured in Joules and refers to the quantity of thermal energy transferred. The specific heat capacity of a substance is the amount of heat energy required to raise its temperature by one degree and one kilogram, and can be used to calculate the energy needed to change an object's temperature. Heat naturally transfers from hotter to cooler objects until they reach thermal equilibrium.
The document provides tips for improving determination by setting clear and specific goals. It recommends completing a "best possible future self" exercise to envision success, then developing goals in different life areas and breaking them down into smaller, time-bound steps. Key tips include eliminating negative self-talk, learning from obstacles, using visualization techniques, creating a vision board, rewarding progress, and taking breaks to re-energize motivation.

Primary Care and Behavioral Health Integration – Leveraging psychologists’ ro...Michael Changaris
Background and Importance: Violence stands as a significant cause of death in the United States, contributing to various health and mental health issues. The role of psychologists has evolved into an essential component of healthcare.
Despite a decrease over several decades, rates of violence have begun to rise again. However, the prevailing approach often focuses on managing the aftermath of violence rather than tackling its underlying causes. Each community possesses its own distinct profile of factors that either elevate or mitigate the risk of violence.
Primary Care Behavioral Health Integration presents a broadly applicable method for preventing violence, offering a hyper-local approach that targets the specific health needs of individuals, families, and communities. By adapting established evidence-based strategies for healthcare improvement, primary prevention can significantly reduce violence.
Methods and Description: This presentation will provide practical tools and general measures to effectively merge behavioral healthcare with primary care systems, fostering violence reduction at the levels of the community, healthcare facility, and healthcare providers. The implementation of universal precautions for violence reduction will be outlined, along with a structured approach to establish violence reduction advocates and teams. These teams will be equipped to assess the unique local risks, manifestations, and impacts of violence within the community they serve.
Outcomes: Through the incorporation of a 7-factor violence risk reduction strategy within primary care behavioral health, collaborative multidisciplinary teams can effectively diminish instances of interpersonal, individual, and community violence. The application of the "four Ts" model (Training, Triage, Treatment, Team Care) empowers primary care clinicians and integrated healthcare settings to enhance individual clinical outcomes, overall clinic population health, and actively champion community-wide violence reduction.

These invitations encourage embracing life's precariousness, being open without judgment, including all parts of oneself, finding inner stillness amid activity, and letting go of certainty.

Breast cancer: Post menopausal endocrine therapyDr. Sumit KUMAR
Breast cancer in postmenopausal women with hormone receptor-positive (HR+) status is a common and complex condition that necessitates a multifaceted approach to management. HR+ breast cancer means that the cancer cells grow in response to hormones such as estrogen and progesterone. This subtype is prevalent among postmenopausal women and typically exhibits a more indolent course compared to other forms of breast cancer, which allows for a variety of treatment options.
Diagnosis and Staging
The diagnosis of HR+ breast cancer begins with clinical evaluation, imaging, and biopsy. Imaging modalities such as mammography, ultrasound, and MRI help in assessing the extent of the disease. Histopathological examination and immunohistochemical staining of the biopsy sample confirm the diagnosis and hormone receptor status by identifying the presence of estrogen receptors (ER) and progesterone receptors (PR) on the tumor cells.
Staging involves determining the size of the tumor (T), the involvement of regional lymph nodes (N), and the presence of distant metastasis (M). The American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) staging system is commonly used. Accurate staging is critical as it guides treatment decisions.
Treatment Options
Endocrine Therapy
Endocrine therapy is the cornerstone of treatment for HR+ breast cancer in postmenopausal women. The primary goal is to reduce the levels of estrogen or block its effects on cancer cells. Commonly used agents include:
Selective Estrogen Receptor Modulators (SERMs): Tamoxifen is a SERM that binds to estrogen receptors, blocking estrogen from stimulating breast cancer cells. It is effective but may have side effects such as increased risk of endometrial cancer and thromboembolic events.
Aromatase Inhibitors (AIs): These drugs, including anastrozole, letrozole, and exemestane, lower estrogen levels by inhibiting the aromatase enzyme, which converts androgens to estrogen in peripheral tissues. AIs are generally preferred in postmenopausal women due to their efficacy and safety profile compared to tamoxifen.
Selective Estrogen Receptor Downregulators (SERDs): Fulvestrant is a SERD that degrades estrogen receptors and is used in cases where resistance to other endocrine therapies develops.
Combination Therapies
Combining endocrine therapy with other treatments enhances efficacy. Examples include:
Endocrine Therapy with CDK4/6 Inhibitors: Palbociclib, ribociclib, and abemaciclib are CDK4/6 inhibitors that, when combined with endocrine therapy, significantly improve progression-free survival in advanced HR+ breast cancer.
Endocrine Therapy with mTOR Inhibitors: Everolimus, an mTOR inhibitor, can be added to endocrine therapy for patients who have developed resistance to aromatase inhibitors.
Chemotherapy
Chemotherapy is generally reserved for patients with high-risk features, such as large tumor size, high-grade histology, or extensive lymph node involvement. Regimens often include anthracyclines and taxanes.

• Wise Mind: Wise mind is that part of each person that can know
and experience truth. It is where the person knows something to be
true or valid. It is almost always quiet, It has a certain peace. It is
where the person knows something in a centered way.
• Reasonable Mind: A person is in Reasonable Mind… when they are
approaching things intellectually, thinking logically, planning
behavior, paying attention to empirical facts (facts that can be
observed or measured or counted), focusing their attention, and
when they are "cool," that is, not emotional in their approaches to
solving problems.
• Emotional Mind: A person is in Emotion Mind when their thinking
and behavior are controlled mostly by their emotions. Logical
thinking and planning are difficult, facts may be distorted or made
larger or more important, thoughts and behaviors might be said to
be "hot," and the energy of the behavior tends to match the
intensity of the feelings. 1. How do you know when it’s
your wise mind offering
intuition?
2. How can you listen more to
your wise mind?

Skills
Thought
Stopping
Thought stopping requires five steps…
Notice a
negative
thought
pattern
Begin to
question the
thought
pattern
Tell the
thought to
stop (may take
ten times)
Refocus your
attention on
another task
REPEAT – 10
to 30 Times
Thought Stopping: Do not believe everything
you think! Thoughts are habitual. Many of them
are patterns and habits that have well worn out
their usefulness.
16. Thought
Skills
RETHINKING
• Rethinking: Rethinking is challenging thought patterns with
reality. Since not all thoughts are true and many are not helpful.
Start looking for ways to prove the thoughts wrong. Once you
do this replace the negative lie with a more true helpful
thought.
• Rethinking Requires these Steps
1. Noticing an Unhelpful Thinking Pattern or Thought
2. Asking yourself: “Is it Accurate/True, Helpful, and
Compassionate?”
3. Bring Up Exceptions: ”I know the thought is that I am not
lovable but… I have been supported by many group members
who seem to care about me.”
4. Make a More Real Thought: Use the new information to
make a more true more real, more helpful or more
compassionate thought. “Even though not every one likes me
and I wish I had a partner there are people who care about
me”
17. Thought Skills
Coaching Thoughts
We can use our thoughts to help
us move forward, tolerate
challenges and lead a life of
meaning and purpose.
We can retrain our brain and
thoughts to use ways of
speaking to ourselves that is
supportive, true, compassionate
and helpful.
Thoughts can push us to have
urges that do not help our lives.
If we have a negative thought
but delay the action the thought
looses power and we gain
power.
Coaching Thoughts Have These
Parts
•They support us and validate the valid
•They help put a difficulty in perspective
•They are true but helpful
18. Thought Skills
Connect to Values
“Find your why”
• Remember what you really value in life. Our values can help
us remember why we want to build our life rather than
acting in ways that do not support our vitality.
• We are always balancing: Short-Term and Long-Term Good.
Our values can help us find balance.
• Find Your Why
• Identify something that is worth fighting for
• Remind yourself that difficulty happens it’s our response to
difficulty that matters.
• Connect how helping your self keep moving forward in what
ever way you can at this moment can be like a positive
snowball or an upward spiral.

exercise enhances the action of endorphins, chemicals
that circulate throughout the body.
• Improved Immunity: Endorphins improve natural
immunity and reduce the perception of pain.
• Increased BDNF: Changes a neurochemical called
BDNF that helps the brain grow and regrow.
• Increased Serotonin: Changes Serotonin a
neurochemical that is in antidepressant medication.
• Increased Stamina: Increases our stamina and gets us
doing things.
