Stress: "Fight or Flee"

Hello! In this day I talk about stress, this is an internal state or condition that creates an imbalance the individual psychological for results internal environmental factors, organization where you work or the people around you.
Feelings of stress are caused by the body's instinct to defend it self. This instinct is good in emergencies. Any sort of change can make you feel stressed, even good change. It's not just the change or event itself, but also how you react to it that matters. What's stressful is different for each person. But stress can cause unhealthy physical symptoms if it goes on for too long, such as in response to life's daily challenges and changes. This can make you feel anxious, afraid, worried and uptight. Other symptoms are: Irritability, hair falls, bruxism, tachicardia, fatigue, irregular sleep, irritable colon, back pain, headaches, High blood pressure, Problems with relationships and others.
The stress it affects principally: workers, schoolchildren and university students, school teachers, bus drivers, secretaries, businessmen, and all those people who have to meet short-term goals.
The first step is to learn to recognize when you're feeling stressed. Early warning signs of stress include tension in your shoulders and neck.
The next step is to choose a way to deal with your stress. One way is to avoid the event or thing that leads to your stress--but often this is not possible. A second way is to change how you react to stress. This is often the more practical way. According to the principle of "fight or flee" and I chose fight against stress, and you?

Healthy Lifestyle

Hello everybody, in this occasion I talk about healthy lifestyle. Personally I think that depends on each, the desire we have to live a healthy lifestyle and health awareness that we have in our mind. That's why I'm sure it's possible to have a healthy life in these times, I believe that now gives more than before by the consciousness that we have today.To have a healthy life, it is necessary to take care of the physical and mental health through healthy eating and physical activity. Food should be: low in fat, carbohydrates, vegetables and fruit, lean meats, lots of fluids, a little salt and sugar. And physical exercise to take effect must be at least three times a week.

I try to live a healthy life, exercising at least three times a week, I go twice a week in yoga and when I can go to the gym in the week. On the other hand try to eat as healthy as possible when I can.
I believe that to have a healthy life, does not affect where I go on holiday and the clothes I wear. If I had to choose a holiday "healthy", I probably would go for a walk Excursion to “Torres del Paine”, with clothing and equipment suitable for the climate that there is.
The truth is that I would love a healthy life, as described above, but many times the force of will not allow it, but I have always in mind that one's health is the key to a healthy and happy life.

My Favourite Get-Away

Hello everyone, on this day I’m going to talk about my favourite get-away. Since I was a little girl, I've always liked to visit my house in my field. At first I liked to go because I played all day, I also was during all the day with various farm animals such as horses, chickens, cows, sheeps, pigs and it was something that I really loved. Besides I felt that I was free in that place. When I was growing up, and I did not play all day, but I enjoy stay in a place looking at the beautiful nature that is there and that made me forget everything, that really made feel relaxed and made me have a break from all the stress of Santiago. And until today, I love going to the field, because it is my get-away place, I think that it is wonderful, relaxing, very quiet, and there are many people I love.

This place is in the VIII region of Chile; the village is called Trupan, and is from Los Angeles going to the mountains. Trupan is a small town; in number of population is about 2000 people.

There also have pine plantations, where I love to go for a walk.

Near my house there is a river called "La junta" which in summer is filled with people going to cool off and swim. The village also has a pond full of ducks and swans, where we always go to the dock that is there.

After this it is clear that is my favourite place. God willing, I'll be there Saturday to celebrate the 18 September.

Music

Hello everybody, in this occasion I will talk about music. Personally, I often listen music to relax me, to be happy, or to distract me from the routine, almost I always hear music when I get from the university to my home, or in the subway when I go to university, or before going out at night, or when I'm doing something that does not require much concentration on my part, but usually I don’t listen music when I studying because I feel that I do not learn and I am tuning out.

I like all kind of music, but my favorite is Dance music, some examples of groups I like are: Taio Cruz, David Gueta, Tiesto, RIO, Jay Sean, MGMT, Tinchy Stryder, these are some of the groups or singers I like; but there are many songs of other kind of music that I like.

In general, I always hear the same kind of music because it is the one I have on my computer, but when I'm sad, I listen to joyful music to be better. When I want to rest, I listen quiet music to relax and be calm.

Many times, the music for me is a company, especially in times when I am alone. But sometimes I get bored a lot of music, especially when I feel very tired, with a headache, or after having been in a noisy place. But despite that, I love listening to music, especially when I'm alone, when I’m in my way to the university, and I wake up again, I am more cheerful and ready to pay attention.

See you in a next time!.

Blog: 9

Hello!!!... As a last blog of this semester, write about my blogging experience. I personally believe that this activity has helped me a lot to learn more English. When I have to go writing about stories, experiences, views and thoughts made me relate my everyday language with English continuously.

Although I took over much translators and support of the teacher, I feel that my questions relate to the answers. I did learn more grammar and vocabulary for the day to day. What more I learned with this activity is to give my opinion. In general, it became easier to write the blogs because the topics were very interesting. But what made me harder it is to conjugate verbs.

On the other hand I think the blog is an activity distinct from the usual in general education. This activity is more relaxed, more entertaining and free. Also allows us to get to know our fellow students, knowing what they think about a subject, knowing what they want for their future careers, and knowing how it relates to my opinions.

In conclusion, I feel that this activity is very rewarding to learn English, allowing us to reinforce the thinking in English, vocabulary, reading, and above all to express our opinions.

I just hope this will keep repeating for the Following courses, since it is a more entertaining way to learn English.

See you next semester.

Hello everybody, on this day I'm going to talk about my ideal job. My ideal job would be one that reconciles my personal time and family with the needs of my patients. To start I would like work in the public sector; because I know that there could help many people and women in need and the best way I can. Helping people most in need, is one of my purposes working; considered "ideal job". On the other hand, the ideal would be to work in the private sector as I have always wanted. But keep the work in the public sector to meet one of my purposes. The ideal place to work would be a hospital or have my private office and assisting the pregnant women during all the gestation process; if possible, near my house. I would like to work assisting in the delivery process and assisting the newborns in the area of neonatology; because they are areas of my career that I most like. Moreover, would be ideal to work in another area that I have always liked, this is in vitro fertilization; so I can help families that are unable to have children.

For me my future family is the most important, therefore, I would like to have time to spend with them. I want to share every birthday, Christmas, New Year, special moments always with them, and I don’t want to miss those moments for my work. For this, my ideal work schedule is one that leaves me time to spend with them.

In conclusion, my ideal job is one that makes me happy and I can live in peace… doing what I like.
