Yawning

-

 Yawning is one of those quirky, universal behaviors that everyone experiences, but it still carries a bit of mystery. Here’s a fun look at why we yawn:

1. Oxygen Boost

The Classic Theory:

  • Oxygen and Carbon Dioxide: One of the older theories suggests that yawning helps increase oxygen intake and facilitates the removal of carbon dioxide. When you yawn, you take a deep breath, which could help to refresh your body with oxygen and improve alertness.

2. Cooling the Brain

The Brain Coolant:

  • Temperature Regulation: More recent research suggests that yawning may help cool the brain. When you yawn, the act of opening your mouth wide and taking in a big breath may help cool the brain, much like how a fan cools off a computer. A cooler brain might function better and stay more alert.

3. Boredom or Drowsiness

The Classic Culprit:

  • Boredom: Ever find yourself yawning in a boring meeting or lecture? Yawning can be a sign that your brain is looking for a bit more stimulation. It’s a way to signal that you need a mental refresh or a break from monotony.
  • Sleepiness: Yawning is often associated with drowsiness. When you're tired or need rest, yawning can be a response to your body's call for more sleep.

4. Social and Contagious Behavior

The Yawn Chain Reaction:

  • Contagious Yawning: Have you ever yawned just because you saw someone else do it? Yawning is highly contagious! This is thought to be related to empathy and social bonding. Seeing someone yawn can trigger a similar response in you as a way to connect with the group or show shared experiences.

5. Stress and Anxiety

The Nervous Yawn:

  • Stress Response: Sometimes, people yawn when they are anxious or stressed. This might be due to the body's attempt to calm itself and regulate its state. Yawning might act as a soothing mechanism during stressful times.

6. A Universal Gesture

The Global Yawn:

  • Cross-Cultural Behavior: Yawning is a universal behavior found in humans and many animals. It’s something we all share, and it’s often seen as a non-verbal way of communicating states like tiredness or boredom.

7. Fun Facts

  • Yawning in Animals: Animals also yawn. Dogs, cats, and even birds do it! It’s a common behavior across species.
  • Yawning and Empathy: Studies have shown that people who are more empathetic are more likely to catch a yawn from someone else. So, if you find yourself yawning when someone else does, you might just be a super empathetic person!
  • The “Big Yawn” Theory: Some researchers suggest that the bigger the yawn, the more it might be related to the brain’s cooling system.

Stim ca noi oamenii sintem creati inca de la Facere pe o linie de urmasi deoarece sintem fiinte muritoare obisnuite,si trebuie sa intelegem ca daca sintem muritori atunci avem creata Karma prin care revenim in trup in ciclurile vietii apartinand reincarnarilor facind parte din Lantului Spiralei Evolutiei.Prin analizele si studiile facute de mai marii lumii stiinta Astrologiei opereaza in analizele si interpretarile sale bazindu-se pe combinatii ale unor elemente precise,specifice temei de nastere. In Astrologie vem 34 de variabile ca elemente de baza:10 planete,12 zodii,si 12 case. Din combinatia lor  rezulta toate variantele capacitatilor personale omenesti. In legatura cu Astrologia Karmica ar trebui sa se stie ca este Astrologia cea mai importanta decit toate,fiind denumita si Astrologia tristetii si durerii sufletesti care ne atentioneaza drastic si usturator  daca am comis greseli,care ne arata cum  sa reparam acele greseli pe care le comitem sau le-am comis,ajuti

Imagine
In 1993 , Romania demara o ampla campanie de punere in valoare a cetatilor dacice de la Gradistea . Un studiu multidisciplinar efectuat la fata locului a pus in evidenta faptul ca sub ceea ce este acum decopertat exista un urias ansamblu arhitectonic , un ansamblu militaro – civil compact, cu mai multe nuclee , intins pe o suprafata de peste 200 de kilometri patrati. Acest oras ingropat este predacic si e foarte bogat in aur . Specialistii romani au intocmit niste planuri de detaliu cu siturile subterane nedecopertate, pe care le-au strans intr-un dosar trimis Ministerului Culturii si Cultelor. O copie a planurilor a ajuns insa si la cautatorii clandestini de comori, care au relatii puternice in zona clasei politice. Hotii stiu acum cu exactitate unde sa caute. In mod ciudat, posibilitatea ca vestigiile din Muntii Orastiei sa fie scoase de pe lista UNESCO, merge mana in mana cu deja celebrul scandal al bratarilor dacice . Dupa cum
