1. How Destructive/Negative Emotions Affect us:
it is rather sickening to hold onto destructive/negative situations, emotions, and people that only add misery into our lives.

This is a great website to learn more about how negative emotions can affect our health.

3. The Invisible Causes of Cancer:
There is no doubt in my heart, there are some powerful, and invisible causes of cancer. They are spiritual and emotional. There is lots of evidence which indicate that repressed anger, hate and resentment play a crucial role in the development of cancer. Increased stress hormones caused by emotional triggers suppress the immune system, which can lead to cancer. When negative feelings are not expressed, they can can contribute to physical illness over time. Even the conservative Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) states that 85 percent of all diseases have an emotional element. Trapped or repressed negative feelings, such as anger, increase a person’s level of the stress hormones, which directly suppress the immune system. The health of your immune system is crucial in fighting cancer... Keep reading this article here.
4. Anxiety and physical illness:
Understanding and treating anxiety can often improve the outcome of chronic disease.
With headlines warning us of international terrorism, global warming, and economic slowdown, we're all likely to be a little more anxious these days. As an everyday emotion, anxiety — the "fight or flight" response — can be a good thing, prompting us to take extra precautions. But when anxiety persists in the absence of a need to fight or flee, it can not only interfere with our daily lives but also undermine our physical health. Evidence suggests that people with anxiety disorders are at greater risk for developing a number of chronic medical conditions. They may also have more severe symptoms and a greater risk of death when they become ill. Continue reading here...

9. RESEARCH ON SELF-SABOTAGE:
In this article, we can learn about the most common reasons we place unnecessary limitations on ourselves that keep us from living our dreams.
A video of a commencement address by Jim Carrey recentlywent viral, with more than 7,000,000 views on YouTube alone. In the talk, the comedian poignantly captured what holds most of us back from achieving our goals:
You can spend your whole life imagining ghosts, worrying about the pathway to the future, but all there will ever be is what’s happening here and the decisions we make in this moment, which are based on either love or fear. So many of us choose our path out of fear disguised as practicality. What we really want seems impossibly out of reach and ridiculous to expect, so we never dare to ask the universe for it.
He went on to relate the story of his father, who he says “could have been a great comedian,” but instead lost his “safe” job as an accountant:
I learned many great lessons from my father, not the least of which was that you can fail at what you don’t want, so you might as well take a chance on doing what you love.
Carrey’s simple and inspiring message has been splattered across social media, showing how strongly it hits home with so many. Every one of us is capable of undermining our own goals because we all have an inherent inclination to self-sabotage. Two of the most important questions we can ask ourselves are why and how we get in our own way when we seek to achieve what matters most to us.
Following are 4 common reasons we place unnecessary limitations on ourselves that keep us from living our dreams.

Writing advice: It can be all at once inspiring and contradictory, uplifting and off-putting, insightful and superficial. There are successful writers who impart wisdom freely and willingly, and then there are literary icons who claim to have none to dispense at all. As for the rest of us, we just can’t seem to help but look to our fellow writers who’ve achieved so much and wonder: What’s their secret? Read this article here:
11. Scriptural prosperity faith
As born-again believers, we are redeemed from the curse of the law and are heirs to Abraham’s blessing and God’s promises of prosperity.For many years I did not understand that it is God’s will for His children to prosper. I thought as many do that poverty was a characteristic of humility – that in order to be humble one must be poor. I thought that a righteous man could not be wealthy and that a wealthy man could not be righteous. Any promise in the scriptures regarding financial blessing applied only to the Jews, I thought. I have since learned, through studying God’s Word and applying it in my own life, that God wants His children to “prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prosperity” (III John 2).

14. La escritura expresiva como herramienta terapéutica:
Seguro que ya has oído hablar de la escritura expresiva. Durante los últimos 20 años, un buen número de estudios han demostrado los efectos beneficiosos que escribir acerca de los eventos traumáticos o estresantes experimentados en primera persona tiene sobre la salud física y emocional, tanto en poblaciones clínicas como en no clínicas.
El formato habitualmente utilizado en estos estudios ha consistido en pedir al sujeto que escriba sobre este tipo de eventos durante 15-20 minutos a lo largo de 3 a 5 días.
El resultado obtenido en la gran mayoría de estos estudios es una mejora significativa tanto física como psicológica en comparación con aquellos que escriben sobre temas neutrales. Continua leyendo aquí...
English terms for emotional distress are often wrapped up in the language of physical maladies: Being heartsick, sick with grief, heartbroken. The Old English word for grief, heartsarnes, literally means soreness of the heart; heartache originates from the Old English heortece, originally used to refer to heart disease. The words hurt and pain can apply equally to suffering of the mind or of the body.

We all know grief...in our own unique way. We remember how we felt when our grandmother died, or how our father looked at his childhood friend's funeral. We remember slumping into a seemingly endless depression after our boyfriend or husband of many years told us that he needed to move on. It was tears. It was carrying a lead weight on our shoulders that made every step difficult to take. It was sitting on the edge of the bed, numb, staring at our shoes and thinking about nothing in particular for long periods of time.

18. La moda como empoderamiento femenino:
Un análisis de su manifestación en los cambios de vestuario del siglo XXI
Este trabajo persigue abordar la relación entre empoderamiento femenino y moda vestimentaria, por medio de la identificación de argumentos y teorías que apoyan o que niegan una posible relación entre ambos fenómenos, frente al análisis de sus manifestaciones en el siglo XXI. Este empoderamiento femenino se convierte en un discurso visual, mediante la historia de la evolución del vestuario femenino, sus siluetas, diseños, colores y la relación con el contexto social de cada época. Estos componentes se integran dentro de un lenguaje no verbal para representar o manifestar empoderamiento.
A través de una investigación monográfica, se analizó la relación entre los componentes mencionados y su manifestación gracias al Zeitgeist de cada época. Esto se consiguió por medio del estudio de caso de mujeres representativas para el discurso femenino en la actualidad, y una línea de tiempo que evidenció estos fenómenos a través del siglo XX y el XXI, donde “los perpetuos escarceos de la moda son, ante todo, efecto de nuevas valoraciones sociales vinculadas a una posición e imagen del individuo respecto al conjunto colectivo” (Lipovetsky, 1990, p. 64). Estas manifestaciones de carácter simbólico, tienen el objetivo de representar una mujer ante una sociedad, situación o contexto determinado, y muestran las barreras entre la igualdad de género y su evolución a través de la moda vestimentaria en la sociedad occidental.
Palabras clave: empoderamiento femenino, moda vestimentaria, representación, zeitgeist. Continue reading here
