How do we break out of the anxiety cycle?
1. Acknowledge the anxiety
🟢 The first step in breaking the anxiety cycle is to recognize and acknowledge that you are feeling anxious. This can help you become more aware of your emotions and make it easier to address them.
2. Identifying triggers
🟢 Determining and listing down the situations, thoughts and events that cause your anxiety will help you manage your anxiety more effectively.
3. Challenge negative thoughts
🟢 when you notice anxious thoughts, challenge them by asking yourself if they are rational or based on facts. They usually aren't, so try and replace them with more realistic and positive alternatives.
4. Develop healthy coping mechanisms
🟢Incorporate relaxation techniques, such as deep breathing exercises into your daily routine.
5. Monitor your progress
🟢 Regularly assess your anxiety levels and the effectiveness of your coping strategies. This will help you identify any areas that may need improvement and make adjustments as needed.
6. Be patient
🟢 Breaking the anxiety cycle takes time and effort. Be patient with yourself and remember that progress may be slow, but it is still progress.

1600 BC (Ancient Egypt): Doctors discovered that the heart pumps🩸around the body.
For thousands of years, the heart got the credit for almost everything that happened in the body. The Ancient Egyptians noticed there were tubes coming off the heart going in all sorts of different directions, so they decided that it was responsible for moving around blood (yep!), spit (umm, nope), poo (what were they thinking?), the soul (is that even a thing?) and ghosts 👻 (umm, guys...).

Did you know that the ancient Greeks believed that the uterus could wander around the body like a lost animal? This condition was called "hystera" (meaning uterus) and was thought to cause a variety of symptoms, including anxiety, irritability, and even suffocation. To treat this condition, doctors would prescribe marriage, pregnancy, and even "smelling pleasant smells" to lure the wandering uterus back into its proper place.

The first successful human organ transplant, a kidney transplant, was performed in 1954 by Dr. Joseph Murray and his team in Boston, Brigham Hospital. The recipient, Richard Herrick, received a kidney from his identical twin brother, Ronald. This breakthrough allowed for more research and development in the field of organ transplantation, which has now become a common medical practice for treating organ failure.
