How to #hug, according to #science
source: https://www.science.org/content/article/how-hug-according-science
Where do your arms go? How long is too long? Never fear, science has your … back.
...
In total, the results suggest the safest, most likely to be pleasant hug is one that’s 5 to 10 seconds long with crisscrossed arms. Good luck out there, humans!
Carl Sagan testifying before Congress in 1985 on climate change

"We are pouring #carbon #dioxide and other #gases into the #atmosphere with hardly any concern for its long term and #global-effects ... the #solutions to these #problems requires a #perspective that embraces the #planet and the #future because we are all in this #greenhouse #together."

Earth
How can we, #together as one #human #family, mend our severed ties to the #Earth? How can we reshape #society in a way that #balances #collectivism and #individualism? How can we, as #individuals, reclaim our #joy and #spirit in what often feels like a #broken #world?
#Separation breeds #violence. #Interconnectedness encourages #compassion.
#ChiefSeattle of the #Suquamish and #Duwamish #tribes reminds us: “We know the sap which courses through the #trees as we know the blood that courses through our veins. We are part of the earth and it is part of us. The perfumed #flowers are our #sisters. The #bear, the #deer, the great #eagle, these are our #brothers. The rocky crests, the #dew in the meadow, the body heat of the #pony, and #man, all belong to the same family.”
#quote
Je parle de mon corps comme s'il était une partie de moi, mon esprit en serait une autre...
Je ne sais pas exactement si ce sont vraiment des parties différentes de moi, je considère en tout cas qu'elles sont liées et fonctionnent en contribution l'une avec l'autre.
J'aime penser que mon corps est mon temple, il est sacré car c'est lui qui me permet d'expérimenter le monde physique. J'aime aussi à penser qu'il est mon ami, il me porte, me supporte et a enduré tout ce que je lui ai fait subir depuis ma naissance. J'aime enfin à penser qu'en étant pleinement une, corps et esprit ensemble, alors je peux vraiment expérimenter la joie profonde, la gratitude, et toucher à la perfection de la Vie.
Je souhaite à chacune et chacun de vivre une belle relation à son corps, autant que possible même s'il exprime douleur, maladie et handicap. Ce qui est un défi peut-être, voire sûrement.
Tu relèves le défi ?

Our Planet ~ Coastal Seas
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r9PeYPHdpNo
'Our #coastal #seas are a #rich #community of #plants and #animals #working #together, all of which are #vital to the #health of our #planet and #humanity. From fearsome #sharks to lowly #urchins, 90 percent of #marine #creatures live in coastal #waters. #Protecting these #habitats is a battle humanity must win. Coastal seas count for 7% of our #ocean, yet they are responsible for 95% of the #world’s marine #production – these are our #planet’s #fishing #grounds. Despite their importance to humanity, few are protected. Yet wherever effective #protection #exists, #life bounces back in #huge #abundance. The #wildlife will #thrive, and we will catch more #fish.'

The importance of #working #together
"We were saying, the importance of working together, the importance of #co-operation, because most of us live in a world that is completely broken, fragmented, a world in which there is constant struggle, one group against another group, one ideology against another, one nation against another, one class and so on. And technologically we are enormously in advance but there is more fragmentation than ever before. And as one observes factually what is going on, it is absolutely essential that man, that is, each one of us, learn how to co-operate. We cannot possibly work together about anything - it doesn't matter if it is about the new school, or the relationship with one another, or to end the monstrous wars that have been going on. If each individual, if each human being is isolating himself in an ideology, his life based on a principle, a discipline, a belief, a dogma, when there is such basis there cannot be co-operation. That seems to me so eminently obvious, there needs to be no discussion about it even. And we were saying, whether it is at all possible to break down all these values that one has deliberately built against others, whether it is at all possible for man to be free. That's what we were going to go into during these talks and discussions."

SUOMALAISILLE SOTAVETERAANEILLE -
Kaikille niille, jotka jäivät sotatantereelle, ovat jo poistuneet muuten keskuudestamme ja niille jotka vielä joukossamme elävät;
Teidän suurten uhrauksienne ansiosta me elämme nyt maassa, joka on vauras, vapaa ja itsenäinen ja siten kykenevä kohtaamaan tänä päivänä aivan uudenlaisen miehittäjän.
Osoittamalla samaa päättäväisyyttä, yhtenäisyyttä ja sisua kuin te aikananne, me tulemme lopulta kukistamaan tämänkin vihollisen - ja se on paljolti teidän ansiotanne.
KIITOS ❕
TO THE FINNISH VETERANS OF WAR -
To all those lost in the battleground, those who have already left us because of old age and poor health and those who still are among us;
It is because of your heavy sacrifice we now live in a country that is prospering, independent and free, allowing us to face a very different kind of an invader today.
Showing the same perseverance, commitment, unity and sisu we will eventually conquer this new enemy, too - because you laid the groundwork for us.
THANK YOU ❕
On this very day 75 years ago all acts of war on the Finnish soil were brought to a halt and the time of peace began. In our country, today is the National Veteran´s Day in honour of our wartime heroes.
Due to the current situation with #covid-19 all the festivities and gatherings for the occasion are cancelled.
For our tune for today, I´m happy to post a very special performance - commissioned by the Finnish Government for today - of the Finlandia Hymn by Jean Sibelius. The choral arrangement is by the composer himself and it is conducted here by director cantus Arto Joutsimäki.
A thousand singers from all across the country (plus seventy-five for the occasion) of Virtuaalikuoro ("The Virtual Choir") recorded their parts in home isolation.
Greetings from Finland from all of us at the Team Sintti HQ -
Stay strong, take care, stay safe and look after yourselves and your loved ones ❕
