Ep.5 How to Say Your Nationality_Country Name in Mandarin Chinese (Like it please subcribe my channel)

El concepto de tiempo es tan insensible como flexible y tan justiciero como inofensivo. Es una realidad que no podemos negar y a su vez, es algo tan etéreo como inexpugnable.
¿Cómo puede ser todo tan contradictorio sobre él, verdad? No estoy seguro de poder contestar a esto, pero sí que lo estoy de que se pueden sentir estas contradicciones especialmente en un entorno natural.

日本の伝統芸能（でんとう げいのう traditional performing art ) にも、いろいろありますが、その中から今回は「狂言（きょうげん）」をご紹介。短いコメディーなんですが、動きにきちんと「型（かた）」があります。空手（からて）みたいでしょ？　ワークショップに行って、「笑い（わらい larghing)」の型を覚えてきたので、忘れないうちにみなさんと一緒に復習したいと思います。結果、なんだか「ドラゴンボール」の「かめかめは」みたいになってますが、気にしないで Let's work out together!

15: Ich nehme das Schnitzel | I take the cutlet

It might sound like the worst start to your day — you get into the shower, and it's ice cold. But while you might not enjoy it, a cold shower could actually be good for your health.

Spending time in cold water is not a new idea — the Ancient Greeks used cold water as a form of therapy as early as 3,500 BC. And things like cold water swims and ice baths have become quite popular around the world.

Experts believe there are a few reasons cold showers could be good for us.

Corey Simon, a doctor at Duke School of Medicine in the US, told CNN that having one or two cold showers a week helps him be more mentally present.

He believes the reason for this is that he has to mentally prepare himself for something stressful: the cold water. But once he's in it, he feels like he's in control of that stressor.

In fact, a 2022 study found that participants who showered for a minute in 10- to 14-degree water every day for two weeks had lower stress levels than a control group.

Cold showers could also be good for our immune system. In a study done in the Netherlands in 2016, people who spent 30 to 90 seconds in a cold shower took 29% fewer sick days from work.

Cold water has also been found to improve circulation, and can reduce muscle pain after a workout. Research suggests that taking a cold shower often could increase your metabolism too.

But experts say it's important to speak to your doctor before taking cold showers often, because it could be dangerous — especially for those with certain conditions, like heart or circulatory problems.

Why Cold Showers Could Be Good for You

“ I actually just finished a wonderful engrossing book just last week, which I couldn’t put down for a moment, and read from cover to cover in just two days. The book was an autobiography on a very famous musician and member of one of the most famous rock bands in history, the Rolling stones….

 

It was one of my friends who is also interested in music recommended the book to me, as he knew I am a huge fan of the Rolling Stones. That evening I checked out reviews for the book online and everyone was giving it a 5 star rating, so it was off to the bookshop for me to pick up a copy as quickly as I could. 

 

The book basically tells the life story of a music legend from his time growing up as a young child in England in the 1950s to becoming a rock legend, and a founding member of one of the biggest rock bands of all time. It really gave an incredible insight into his life, from a very humble beginning to becoming a megastar. It certainly was not heavy reading, and the author’s sense of humour actually made it light reading.

 

The reasons I really loved this book so much apart from being a lifetime fan of the central character, were firstly…. It gave me an amazing insight into the real life of a rockstar, which was actually very thought provoking…….I also found it very inspiring and uplifting….to discover how this young boy from a very normal background believed in his dreams, and stopped at nothing to achieve them….and of course the crazy journey of a rock star along the way…So….yes…..It really was one of those books that i just couldn’t put down, and would have no hesitation in recommending  to anyone.
