What's this about? Learn and Join Us!
Like many humans, I've long been interested in studying the human body, the mind, and this thing we call consciousness. It's a fascinating thing, perhaps the most fascinating in the observable universe.
Over the last 50-100 years, the health of the general public has radically deteriorated. Obesity rates are on the rise, and the vast majority of adults in the West are overweight, sleep deprived, and lack the vital components of evolved life - sleep, movement, a healthy diet, sunlight, a strong social environment, and a strong purpose.
Yet at the same time, humans are still living longer through our collective understanding of life by curing disease, learning what makes our bodies work better, and modern medicine. The result is that we can increase our longevity through learning, sharing, and being conscious of our actions. We live in a world we didn't evolve for, so it's important to be conscious of what our instincts are telling us.
There is constantly incredible studies and books coming out educating us of what needs to change. "Why We Sleep" by Matthew Walker, for example, is an eye-opening look into the importance of sleep, and how modern humans are depriving themselves of it for the first time the history of human life. It's one of example of many where modern humans would be better off being educated on such a vital part of life - but sadly, most aren't.
The goal of this community is the learn, educate, and share what we know about health and well being. The focus to start is more about preventative care - take care of ourselves now to live a better life now, and a longer and better life later. If we can create a movement, we can not only change our lives, but the lives of our fellow humans. Join us - share what you know and learn and lets improve together.
A few short notes to read...
This community has been created so that you can exchange ideas, converse and meet others who share a common interest - health, wellbeing, longevity, and curiosity.
Here are some guidelines:
The more you contribute, the better this forum becomes. Communities only work when people participate - don't take for granted what you know, share it, discuss it, and learn from others.
Here are a few tips to help you create great discussions:
- Make the discussion title or question as descriptive as possible. A good discussion title is a short preview of your post and is what gets people to click and read. A well written title is also going to help search engines better index your post which will bring more people into the discussion. For example, instead of ‘Won’t Connect’, try ‘Help, I’m having problems getting my Acme modem into bridge mode.’
- Bookmark a discussion (click the star) to get notifications for new comments. You can edit notification settings from your profile.
- Proof read. Spelling mistakes, typos, and bad grammar will distract readers from the point you’re trying to make. Vanilla automatically saves drafts as you type. If you’re writing a long post, save it as a draft and come back to it after a few minutes or as long as it takes your brain to forget what you had written.
- Use minimal formatting. Overly formatted posts can also distract from the message and it encourages others to do likewise and you end up with a hard to read thread.
- Put your post in the right category. The right category can be the one that has a relevant category name or it can be a category where this kind of post is often made.
- Use tags. Tags are helpful for others to find keyword related posts. It also helps the site admins get a sense for what topics are popular.
- If you want responses, ask for them. In marketing this is called a ‘call to action’. If you want others to comment, you can encourage them by asking them to do so. If your post is just an FYI then don’t.
- Go easy on the insider jargon. Inside jokes and inside references can be fun and make the community unique but too much of it can turn off new members.
- Add an image. Images add visual interest and make your post look great when shared to social networks. You can embed an image using the button bar or you can upload one from your desktop or phone.
- Mention others. Credit other members if you are building off their previous comments or if you want to draw them into the discussion. Put the @ before a username to mention someone.
- Take ownership. Most important of all, take ownership of the discussions that you have created. Respond to comments promptly and thoughtfully. Thank others for commenting on your discussion and help with moderation if things get heated.
- Use the reactions. These let you share how you feel about other’s comments. The most liked content shows up on the Best Of page.
- Mention others. Put an @ symbol before the username to mention someone. They’ll get notified when you do.
- Update your notification preferences. You’ll receive a notification if someone mentions you or posts to a discussion that you’ve bookmarked. You can set notifications from the Edit Profile page.
- Send messages. You can private message members by going to your inbox, or visiting their profile page (click their username anywhere).
- Check out what’s going on with other community members on the Activity page.
Welcome! Join us - share what you know and learn and lets improve together.
