Animal Totems Meanings And Cultural Beliefs

0

Totem animals known in many quarters as spirit animals, animal guides or power animals are quite an interesting study to many. It is fun to know that there are many synchronicities between these animals and yourself. Putting things in perspective, animal totems are the mirror of one’s traits that are visible in a specific animal.

In other words, someone who shares same characteristics with a certain animal harnesses the energy of that animal – their spirit animal. Simply put, these people are the people of that totem.

According to astrologers, one has to know their spirit animals, study and meditate on it, to be able to use the animal’s energy. Since the totem animal has varying and diverse characteristics, one needs to copy a certain animal attribute that works in tandem with the situation they are in.

Let’s take a look at a number of totem animals and what they represent.

Ant – Discipline, Order and Patience

An Ant Totem will show you how to build your dreams, goals and aspirations over time. In addition, it helps you know that everything will come in its own time. It teaches you how to become the architect of your life, achieving great success with persistence.

 Wolf – Soldier

Boar – Self-Reliance and Protection

It is the totem of prosperity and spiritual strength. Since the Boar is the master of its terrain, it teaches self-reliance. With the help of the Boar, you can face many tribulations that you face. It’s willingness to always root around in the dirt symbolizes its connection to Mother Earth.

Jaguar – Flexibility speed

It is highly essential for leopard or cheetah people to have a flexible spirit and body for a healthy and fulfilled life. For their existence, maneuverability and speed are paramount. However, people who have jaguars as their totem animals must learn to rest after periods of stress. They are ever to exhaust their energies.

Fish – Adaptation

The hallmark of this aquatic animals is its adaptability. It can give its people protection when they need it and connect them to the creative element of life – widely accepted as water. When a fish enters your life as a totem, it is thought to have awakened of your senses – prophetic dreams and visions.

Elephant – Timeless

Hippopotamus – Power

The animal’s totem is power. However, this power is not physical power but the strength to create, heal and make creative imaginations. When hippos are in water, their feet remain firmly grounded in water meaning you should trust your intuition but at the same time be careful to stay grounded.

Panda – Strength

This totem animal gives you the gift of gentle strength. Since bamboos have strength yet very flexible and Pandas feed mostly on Bamboo, the study of bamboo is very important to this totem. It reminds you that you should not take more projects than you can ordinarily handle. It also teaches you not to be narrow-minded but to see things only in black and white.

Lion – Pride

Roger Lapin

 

One of the most talked-about new breeds of magicians is taking the UK by storm with his slick magic and unique humour. Roger Lapin, based between Southampton and the New Forest, Hampshire has been performing close up magic for more than fifteen years and has become one of the most in-demand magicians in the UK.

 

Roger Lapin who is a member of the magic circle and who has success on the cards as one as the leading close-up magicians in the UK has performed at over 150 venues last year. However, even though he has seen his popularity shot through the roof he has a goal that he is determined to reach. The funny magician has a dream of supporting his favourite rock band Queen by performing magic at the beginning of their concert. He has promised if his dream comes true, he won’t make Brian May disappear before he has a chance to perform to the 40,000 crowd. However, Roger Lapin makes no promises on what will happen after the concert.

 

The magician who performs at all types of venues includes wedding venues, private events, corporate events, holiday parks, and cruise ships has a reputation for leaving those who go to see him perfume scratching their heads. With his sharp suit and his unique humour, he has been called the X-Factor of the magician world.

 

When asked what trick he would perform if he achieved his dream and performed for Brian May at a Queen concert he replied:” It’s called the Snooker Ball trick and involves 5 people on stage, they each take a snooker ball from a big bag remember the colour and put it back. (nobody sees what ball they took). Then using another assistant, I ask them to take the snooker balls and put them back into the hands of the people that chose them. The assistant gets all 5 correct.”

 

Roger went on to explain how the trick looks simple but nobody knows how he does it.

 

“I finish every show with the trick where I have performed it to crowds of 1000 in a theatre to 20 at a house party. At the end, the balls and bag are examined to find no clue of how I was able to divine the memories of 5 people and transmit it to my assistant!”

 

Roger Lapin who has performed for some of the biggest names in entertainment including Dec, Ross Kemp, and James Martin, is one of the busiest magicians in the UK.

Dr. Kang Zhang and Team Demonstrate Promising Gene Therapy Treatment for Retinitis Pigmentosa

0

Dr. Kang Zhang M.D. Ph.D. who is known for his breakthrough research in ophthalmic genetics released a manuscript in Nature highlighting a novel gene therapy that can be applied to degenerative conditions such as retinitis pigmentosa. In the paper, Dr. Kang Zhang and his research team from UC San Diego explain their strategy which revolves around using CRISPR/Cas9 gene-editing so that mutation-vulnerable cell types can be transformed into mutation-resistant cell types. CRISPR stands for clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats and refers to DNA strands which the enzyme, Cas9, cleaves and can, therefore, alter the genetic makeup of an organism. Specifically, Zhang’s research team’s approach focused on deactivating the genes Nrl or Nr2e3. Deactivation of either individual gene alone was enough to result in transformation into cone cells. Nrl acts as a master switch gene between rod and cone cells whereas Nr2e3 is a downstream transcription factor. Both of these genes are responsible for controlling photoreceptor fate.

The team was able to successfully demonstrate the ability to reprogram mutated rod photoreceptor cells and transform them into functional cone photoreceptor cells in mouse models for retinitis pigmentosa. Dr. Kang Zhang explained that the rationale for transforming the mutated-rod cells into cone cells was because cone cells are less vulnerable to genetic mutations involved in causing retinitis pigmentosa.

The human retina consists of 120 million rod cells that provide vision in dim light and 6 million cone cells which function in providing color vision. Degenerative conditions such as retinitis pigmentosa often result in significant visual loss due to the degeneration of these photoreceptors. Dr. Zhang and his team were able to target specific genes responsible for the degeneration of these photoreceptors and the results illustrated an increase in cone-like cells which improved visual function in two mouse models. Currently, there is no treatment for retinitis pigmentosa and those affected by the condition are at serious risk of becoming legally blind.

NCN Professional Skincare Releases New Anti-aging Skin Product for 2020

0

NCN Professional Skincare anti aging

Earlier today, NCN Professional Skin Care finally announced the release of it’s new Microdermabrasion Cream for skin exfoliating and resurfacing. This particular product, ready to be sold online in December, had been in development since August of 2018. The main benefit from use is to brighten the skin, leave it with a beautiful glow and an overall more youthful appearance. It helps to fade hard to remove age spots, hyperpigmentation, scars and marks left by acne. It removes the dead surface skin cells allowing this anti-aging product to penetrate the skin with a much better absorption rate. But it does so in a different way than other products currently available.

Nanci Callahan Nivolo, Founder and CEO of NCN Professional SkinCare, says: “The company wanted to try something new with Microdermabrasion Cream. Anyone familiar with the Anti-Aging skin care market will probably have noticed how everyone else seems to have various products for exfoliation. There are a lot of microdermabrasion products available, but this exclusive formula is suspended in skin softening, non-comedogenic, mixed with a small amount of Sea Kelp Bioferment cleanser that adds trace minerals and keeps your skin soft and hydrated. This has always been a problem in the past because the skin needs to stay hydrated at all times and many other products on the market today do not offer that.”

So as a welcome breath of fresh air NCN will instead use a formula for Microdermabrasion cream without a large amount of Sea Kelp Bioferment as it can easily dehydrate your skin and be too aggressive. This product achieves better results while pampering and hydrating the skin.  NCN Professional SkinCare chose to make this move because exfoliation plays such an important role in the care of our skin. The decision was made to formulate the product not only with the added Sea Kelp Bioferment, but customers can also add it to their existing cleanser or face oil depending on skin type. It’s up to the customer which makes it as unique to each one.

Nanci Callahan Nivolo also said, “NCN wants to give the customers options. With Microdermabrasion Cream, now this is a fresh new possibility. The concept is to help clients feel really good about themselves, refreshed, glowing, looking more youthful and knowing that the company and products NCN provides are all about preserving the integrity of the skin naturally. When formulating the new Microdermabrasion Cream it was challenging. Trying something new is always a risk, but it was a risk where the result is worth it.”

NCN Professional SkinCare has been in business for 13 years, established in June,of 2006. Since day one NCN has always aimed to stand out from the crowd, while also providing its customers the best possible plant based anti-aging skin care produtcts at the best possible value.

Microdermabrasion Cream is set to launch in December 2019. To find out more, it’s possible to visit https://ncnsckincare.com

How To Stay Motivated To Keep Fit

FitnessAndBody.com, the experts behind fitness equipment and who produce the ultimate fitness equipment buyers guide wants to help people stay motivated when it comes to their fitness regime.

The people behind the ultimate buyer’s guide for top fitness equipment have put together motivational tips to help people stick to their New Year’s Resolution to become fitter and healthier. FitnessAndBody.com, understand how people can lose their motivation when training for a better body, and the reason behind the motivational tips is down to a report in 2019.

In 2019 a survey was conducted with 1,075 adults taking part. The survey was to find out how many people would make a New Year’s Resolution for 2020. 44 percent said they would with 13 percent stipulating that their resolution would be to become fitter. The resolution to become fitter is a popular New Years Resolution which is reflected in 6,400 fitness clubs in the U.S seeing a rise in membership by 10.8 percent in January. However, 80 percent of those people who made a New Year’s Resolution in 2019 failed within the first two months. That is reflected with fitness clubs seeing a drop-in membership by March. The reason why so many people give up on their fitness is down to motivation. However, FitnessAndBody.com aims to change that.

FitnessAndBody.com has put together tips to help people stay motivated to keep fit.

1. Get A Workout Buddy

One of the biggest reasons why so many people give up on their New Year’s Resolution to keep fit is boredom. Going to the gym or exercising at home on one’s own can be boring. Due to that boredom, some people feel less motivated to carry on with their fitness routine and give up. Having a partner to train with is much more enjoyable and will keep the motivation up to exercise.

2. Train At Home

Another big reason why so many people give up on their fitness goals is the hassle of going down to the gym or fitness centre. A lot of people have busy lives and trying to find time in that busy work life to exercise can be very frustrating. The last thing a lot of people want to do after a hard day’s work is to spend half an hour or so going to the gym. By purchasing fitness equipment for the home, this removes the hassle of traveling to the gym.

3. Hire A One To One Personal Trainer

When you feel less motivated and start to get bored with your training, then hiring a personal trainer for an hour or two will help to solve this. A personal trainer can provide new forms of exercise and refresh a workout routine. Personal trainers can be found at the gym and they can also be hired for the home.

4. Focus On How Good Exercising Can Be

Most people who exercise feel so much better after a good workout. By focusing on the positives of a workout which includes achieving your goals and feeling healthier and more refreshed, it will keep that motivation alive.

5. Remember The Goals You Want To Achieve

By focusing on the goal that you want to achieve, will help motivate you to keep up the fitness routine.
