A travel experience

I really like to travel because I believe that is good experience that let you not only know new places but relax and meditate about others things. I think that traveling allows you to know yourself and appreciate what you have because while you travel you can know others realities.

Although I love to travel I prefer not to travel for a long time because I miss my family and my friends. The longest trip that I ever made was when I traveled to Germany and I spent about a month in there. This was a really great experience and I can say that this country is really beautiful and have so many places you can go and you can have fun. The only thing that I don't really like about this country is the food but the chocolate that sale in there is great. I remember that when I was in this country we go to a fair and my friend and I got on a roller coaster and have a great time in this fair. The only thing that I miss when I traveled to Germany was my family because I traveled with my school mates.

Thinking about that I realized that the longest trips I made I didn't go with my family but with friend or with my school mates.The others places where I traveled was: Argentina, Paraguay, Brazil and the south of Chile. In these places I like the landscape, the food and the people because they were very nice and friendly.

The films of my life

When I think about the movies I watched I can't chose a favorite movie or just one type of movie I like to watch. I like the every kind of movies like romantic movies or sad movies or adventure movies or mystery or terror movies.

I enjoy so much watching a movie that I don't care if I watch the movie in a cinema or in my house. The only thing that I search in a movie is that this movie have the capacity of transport me to the world that this movie try to recreate and make me feel like I part of the movie and at the same time make me share the emotions that the actors try to represent. So for my a good movie not only have to had a good history but this movie have to had the capacity of make me laugh, cry or scare me.

I have watched many movies but I always remember that when I was younger (when I have 4 or 5 years old) I always watched the movie call: "The Sound of Music" because my family loved that movie so I growth up watching this movie and I love it. So when I watch this movie I remember the good times that I spend with my family.

About the Chilean movies I don't have much to say because I don't see many chilean movies apart from "Machuca".

The neuromyths

One of the myths that Doctor Maldonado talks about in his work is that the people only use the 10% of their brain. This myth has two origins one of them come from of an experiment realized in 1930's that was about electric shocks and how the brain react to them. From this experiment it's conclude that only the 10% of the brain was use because only some parts of the brain react to this experiment. The other origin of this myth was that the people confuse the numbers of glial cells in the brain with the neurons (that are the ones that can make synapses) and for this they think that we can only use the 10% of it because only are 10 glial cells for one neuron.

But all of this is a lie because the neuroscience findings show that we use the 100% of our brain and that the brain it's always active even when we sleep. And this can be show in the case that a person loses the 90% of their brain tissue we can observe that this person will present serious consequences. If the people only use a little part of the brain this tissue damage should not affect them but really affect their brain activity.

I have hear about this myth before but I have dudes about this because is illogical think that such an important organ requires its entire function to make all the function in all our body.

I think that this article is very interesting and help the people to know that some of the things that its said it about the brain are false. I think that the most interesting thing is that the neurons can regenerate themselfs and reduce the damage that can are made to our brain.

Work Stress

The stress is a problem that people present when they feel overwhelmed for the work's and academic's demands and for this pressure they can have psychological and physical problems that reduce their performance and affects their emotional stability.
The most typical symptoms of stress in the physical area are: chest tightness, stomachache, dry mouth, muscle tension and lack of or increased appetite. In the psychological area the most common symptoms are: Restlessness, nervousness, anxiety, fear, irritability, mood swings and depression.
There are two ways to treat the stress: one is the biomedical way which is prescribe anxiolytics or the psychological way that include the biofeedback techniques like breathing and relaxation exercises. The people can mix this ways of treatment to get a better result.
The stress is caused for the problems and concerns of everyday that the people sometimes cannot control and the problems gets bigger and bigger to the person.
In the work the stress can produce a decrease in labor efficiency, can deteriorate the work relationship and this create a bad work environment that only increase the symptoms caused for the stress.
In my opinion the people can try to control the stress not overstretched themselves. Also the people can try to have a little of time to have fun or make relaxation exercises that can help to relax and improve the mood of the people. If the people feel that they can control the stress they can search help in the physician or psychologist that can provide the tools to make better this situation.

A healthy person

In our society I believe that is possible have a healthy life style and all depends of the people because if all the people try and realize that the health is important can change some routine or take the necessary time to improve this aspect of their lives.

I think that to be a healthy person you don't have to eat only vegetables and make many exercises because you can eat a little of everything, in a good measure, and make the necessary exercises, that not only can be the exercises that you do in a gym but others things like yoga, and you still can have a healthy life style.

In my opinion the people that take care of what they eat, make little exercise, try to live their life without stress and go to the doctor when is necessary, are healthy people.

A healthy person can have the habit of eat more healthy food or have a healthy diet without deprive herself of eat other food least healthy (but not a lot of that food or only that food) and the person can make different styles of exercise and take time to relax and have a good time to not stress herself.

I think that this kind of person can go to the beach or to the country in the holidays because in this way the person can relax and take the necessary time to recover all the energy that require to go back to the job or studies.

My favorite place

I really don't have a special place where I go when I feel sad or happy or just to run away of the routine because I don't go out of the city very often. But I think that when I feel stressed or sad I will like to go to a place where is a lot of vegetation and quiet where I can think and relax. In the case I feel happy or stressed too I will like to go to a beach to feel the sound of the sea and the sand in my feet because I think that this is very relaxing and because in the beach you can knew new people and have fun.
Remembering the places I have visited I can choose I perfect place that is a mix of the places I described early. This place is a beach in Costa Blanca that it’s located near of Talca (I don’t remember exactly where) but where don't many people go or know it. I think this place is perfect because have a beach where you can go and where are not much people and you can feel relaxed. And in this place you can find too a lot of vegetation with lakes, I think that this place is really beautiful and I will like to go many times to this place.
The most beautiful thing about this place is the view of the stars in the night I think that is the most beautiful view I ever see.

One of my favorite books

When I began to write this post I was a little unsure of which topic I will like to choose because I love music and books but later I remember one of my favorite books that very few people know.
This book is “The Scarlet Pimpernel” of Baroness Emmuska Orczy. This book is about an English aristocrat that saves the people that was condemned to die in the guillotine during the reign of terror of the French revolution and nobody knows who this man that calls himself the scarlet pimpernel is.
I love this book because is a mix of adventure, romance, mystery and action that I like very much and also because it’s set in the French revolution that is my favorite part of the world history.
When I read for the first time this book I had 15 years old and I read it because this book was in my house and my sister told me that is a very good book. Later I search and I found that this book is part of a saga so I search the others books in internet and I read them despite the fact that this books were in English.
I think that this book is very interesting because give a new perspective of the French revolution and keeps the reader intrigued all the time until you reach at the end of the book.
I really recommend this book to the people that want to have a nice time reading a book.
