He could clarify the tortuous path of the Self Esteem and contribute with all of people whom are struggling against it!

Healthy Thinking
- "I LOVE LIVING LIFE. I AM HAPPY."
- "If I fail, I try again, and again, and again..." If YOU fail, are YOU going to try again? It matters how you're going to FINISH... Are you going to finish STRONG? We are put in situations to build our character... not destroy us. The tensions in our life are there to strengthen our convictions... not to run over us.
- Nick is thankful for what he HAS. He's not bitter for what he does NOT have. I have never met a bitter person who was thankful. I have never met a thankful person who was bitter. In life you have a choice: Bitter or BETTER?
- "No arms, No legs, No worries!"

Being Lonely in the Modern World
Sure, that writing and talking more and more about it just can bring a problem and not a solution, because the balance between the technology and humanity is a human ability and self willingness. It's a free-will!
I'm here, just looking for a touch of consciousness...
Count on Me!

The Impact of Lifestyle on Mental Health
- Lack of value-education.
- Unbalanced educational system; whose moral and ethical issues are not considered effective for the behavioral modification, resulting in the weakening of will-power and tolerance.
- Disturbed family relations
- Violence and cruelty
- Corruption and immorality
- Neglect of law and order
- Drug addiction
- Lack of compassion and spirit of service
- Lack of discipline and self-control
- Possessiveness
- Selfishness
- Being indoors - lack of sunlight: melatonin reduced
- Stress, anxiety, tension - lack of sleep: serotonin reduced
- Current food processing, fast and fat food: fatty acid imbalances and chemical sensitivities
- High sugar and low-fat diet: insulin increased; prostaglandin imbalance
- Poor nutrition: serotonin reduced
- Lack of exercise: serotonin and dopamine reduced
- Boring classes or job - lack of enjoyable activity: dopamine and norepinephrine reduced.
- Deionized air: serotonin reduced
- Make lifestyles changes to decrease stress
- Meditation or yoga
- Stress reduction courses
- Diet change to restore fatty acid balance
- Go to bed on time, with a slow-down period each evening before bed and wake up at the same time each day. Those all-night sessions on the Internet put a strain on your serotonin system. Although you may feel good while you're "wired", you'll probably experience the fogs once you've had a good night of sleep.
- Expose yourself to early morning sunlight. Morning sunlight increases the level of melatonin in your bloodstream at night, which induces sleep, and also increases the level of serotonin
- Balanced diet: 30% protein, 30% fat and 40% carbohydrates at each meal.
- Stress vitamins: the B (B6), E, and C. B6 vitamin is used to increase serotonin
- Chromium is important for lowering insulin levels.
- Minerals evolved in serotonin production are magnesium, zinc, copper, manganese, and iron
- Regular exercise increases both serotonin and dopamine, and affects other important systems as well.

Lifestyle Diseases
All the solution is in our hands and minds; attention: "lifestyle diseases can be barred, as its influence can be weakened by changing our lifestyles, improving diet and making the environment healthier." Any medication or medical procedure can, alone, solve all of our problems. The knowledge of the diseases natural history, the causes of them, the treatment and the necessity to change some of our daily behaviors are always the best and strong way to keep back the control of our lives!
Good Luck!

Human Rights Inclusion Criteria?
I saw your strong protest in front of television cameras against the transfer of your child, juvenile offender, from the FEBEM dependencies in Sao Paulo for another FEBEM dependency within the State. You've complained about the distance that now separates your son, the difficulties and costs to visit him, as well as other problems arising from that transfer. I also saw all the media coverage. I've already noticed that not only you but also other mothers sharing the same situation have the support of the Pastoral Committees, Agencies and Entities for the Defense of Human Rights, NGOs, etc ...
I've already disclosed that I have my own opinion: Both families must be treated and supported... Always...
When support is needed, it must to be requested with strong argues, with honesty and faith. Showing our own side, own pain, own necessity, own comprehension... To achieve own rights it's not necessary to take off the others' rights!
Human Rights are for all!!!!!!!!
Direitos humanos são para humanos direitos?
