Research – Publications and Reward

For those of us involved in Research, and especially in the publishing of our new discoveries, which may only be a few pages in length, is the culmination of a lot of hours in the lab, the clinic and at the desk with the analytical writing. This seemingly simple process can at times take years of research before it is published.

The published research usually signifies that a question has been answered …… but more often than not, this only opens the door to more questions.

That is the nature of Research. This industry requires intellect, persistence, stamina and a cache of time….not for the feint-hearted.

Breakfast for the Mind

I was watching some of our seniors walking and and jogging along the river here at New Farm as I had my early Integrated health group - beth steelsmorning coffee today.

Maybe without knowing it, they are practising one of the most important secrets of health and longevity, one of which is being lost in our technological age.

On a fundamental neurological and biochemical level, we function most effectively when we get up with the sun and sleep with the moon watching over us.

Believe it or not, our hormones are biochemically responsive to the sun, moon and tides. The emerging biochemical research in this area is fascinating (to me) but if chemistry is not your thing……..still how about trying to get up that little bit earlier and walk in the shadow of the rising sun……

Let me know how it feels……

Breakfast for the mind.
