Why should I choose Poland for my IVF treatment?
Poland isn't well known for its IVF treatments. Due to its political and social climate, infertility was considered a taboo topic; actual medical help was hard to find. Recently, however, Poland has passed regulations regarding IVF treatments. Previously, clinics operated in a sort-of "gray area", attracting patients domestic and foreign with cheap treatment costs and high standards of care. The introduced legislation aimed to standardise the quality of health and medical protocols used throughout the country in order to establish a consistent standard of care. Although it may seem as if the country is new to reproductive medicine, it actually can boast highly experienced medical staff and facilities.Find Best IVF Clinics in Poland
IVF Clinics in Poland
Thirty-seven clinics operated in Poland as of 2014, although only twenty nine of them reported their data to ESHRE. Poland's location makes it an attractive destination to patients from both Western and Eastern Europe; it's not uncommon to find doctors and other personnel speaking both English and Russian. As such, Poland is favoured as a destination by Russians and Belarussians, with patients from Germany, the United Kingdom and Ireland also making up a large portion of foreigners visiting the country.
Clinics, or "infertility treatment centres", require accreditation from the Minister of Health and must meet certain requirements. They are also subject to annual inspections, ensuring appropriate standards of care are being upheld. An up-to-date registry can be found on the Ministry of Health website1. As of the time of writing this article, exactly fifty clinics operate within the country.
Accredited clinics are required to submit data detailing the results of their treatments to the Ministry of Health for statistical purposes at the Ministry's request. The Ministry of Health does not make the data public, but some clinics report their results directly to the European Society for Human Reproduction and Embryology (ESHRE), which publishes yearly aggregate reports describing the state of fertility treatments in Europe. Their reports, however, are published with a long, four-year delay. Below you can find the data from the latest ESHRE report, published in 2018 and concerning the year 2014.

IVF Treatment options in Poland
Basic information about IVF treatment in Poland – read before you go:
Various options are available in Poland, although according to standing legislation, these services and treatments are only available to infertile, heterosexual couples. Single women and those in same-sex relationships cannot get access to fertility treatment in the country and should look elsewhere. In general, IVF is only available to patients who can prove they attempted other methods of treatment for a period of at least twelve months.
Sperm, egg, and embryo donation are all allowed; strict anonymity is enforced by law, although clinics are required to store the personal, identifying data of both the donor and the recipient as part of their case documentation. The clinic's casework needs to be stored for a period of at least 90 years.
Both PGT-A and PGD testing are available to patients, although the latter requires a valid medical reason. Sex selection as a result of embryo testing is strictly prohibited except in cases in which the child is highly probable to be affected by a disorder carried by the sex chromosomes. Only six eggs can be fertilised at one time, unless the patient has had two failed assisted reproduction treatments in the past.
Surplus eggs and embryos can be given up for anonymous donation; the destruction of embryos able to develop is actually prohibited by law – under penalty of imprisonment. Social donation of embryos thus becomes the de facto default option for those parents who don't wish to have more children, but still have surplus embryos.

Egg Donation in Poland
Polish legislative framework permits donation treatments. Potential donors need to enter their information into the National Donor Registry; once they have 10 genetic children, they cannot donate again and are removed from the donor lists.
According to ESHRE data, egg donation treatments aren't as popular in Poland as they are in other European countries. Donor availability remains an issue – while almost 14,000 own egg treatments took place in the country in 2014, only 756 egg donation cycles were performed.Their success rate is slightly below the European average – 46.20% compared against 50.30%. The data, however, comes from 2014, before major legislation concerning assisted reproduction technology was enacted. As such, these numbers may change with future ESHRE reports based on more recent data.Find Best IVF Clinics in Poland
Egg donor information available in Poland
Clinics are required to keep the anonymity between the patient and the donor intact. Matching is done based on phenotypic parameters – physical appearance and characteristics such as skin and hair colour, height, weight, eye colour, et cetera. The exact process may differ from clinic to clinic, although they generally follow the same general principles.
Donors are required to be entered into a national registry; they are struck from the registry one ten babies are born through their donations. Clinics perform donor matching through phenotypic characteristics. Children born through donation can gain access to the registry and receive some non-identifying information about the donor: their year and city of birth, their physical description, and the results of their qualifying examinations.
Egg donor qualifications in Poland
Polish law3 specifies certain medical qualifications a potential donor needs to meet before they are allowed to donate. Donors are required to test negative for the following diseases:
- HIV 1 and 2
- Hepatitis B and C
- Syphilis
- HTLV – for those who come or those whose parents or sexual partners come from high-risk areas
- Malaria – for those who may have been exposes to the disease during travel
Additionally, male donors undergo testing for chlamydia, and – if they belong to an ethnic group with an increased risk of being carriers – recessive genetic diseases.
All donors have some of their personal data recorded in a nationwide donor registry. Because of Poland's complicated attitudes towards IVF and related treatments, finding donors is rather difficult. As such, the waiting time for a donor is between 12 and 24 months. The legislation only allows up to six eggs to be fertilised; as such, the amount of embryos available per cycle is low – usually, it's two, at best three.
Embryo donation in Poland
Couples who have concluded their fertility treatments, but still have extra embryos can store them for up to 20 years, or give them up for adoption. Once the twenty years pass, the embryos are given up for adoption without the patients' consent. Destroying viable embryos is illegal and can be punished by up to five years in prison.
IVF and Egg Donation cost in Poland
Poland is by far one of, if not the cheapest destination for fertility treatments in Europe. Own egg cycles average out at €2,700, far below the European average. Egg donation cycles are also cheaper than in most countries, with average costs being around €4,500.
Below you can compare the average costs of egg donation treatments in Poland with those of other countries. This average price includes the donor egg costs, donor compensation, ICSI fertilization, and embryo transfer.
Clearly, Poland is the cheapest destination in Europe. It also needs to be remarked that some clinics aren't upfront about additional fees accumulating during treatments; always be sure to ask your clinic of choice about whether these costs are included in their price quote:
- the donor's fee, her medications and screening (if you're interested in egg donation)
- egg retrieval
- sperm collection and sperm preparation
- assisted hatching (or any other IVF procedures you need)
- transfer of blastocysts
- vitrification (freezing) and storage of embryos/blastocysts
IVF Success Rates in Poland
ESHRE is the European authority concerned with collecting and publishing data on fertility treatments in member countries; their reports, however, are published with a large delay. According to their report for the year 2014 (published in 2018), Poland's egg donation programs are less effective than the European average; the figures are not helped by the relatively small amount of egg donation cycles performed in the country. Own egg IVF success rates match the European average.
|IVF Success Rates in Poland (ESHRE 2014)
|IVF in Poland average
|ESHRE European average
|IVF donor eggs - success rates
(pregnancies/embryo transfer)
|IVF with own eggs - success rates

Your individual chances for a successful IVF treatment in Poland
Remember that average success rates shouldn't be the primary deciding factor for your choice of clinic. Each patient is different – they have different infertility diagnoses and medical histories. As such, the prognoses for each patient can vary greatly and usually are different from the presented average success rates of each clinic. If you're concerned with the success rates, call the clinic before scheduling an appointment – describe your medical history in detail, including your age, weight, height, the infertility diagnosis, the number of failed cycles, performed tests and procedures etc. and ask for your individual success prognosis.
IVF in Poland – Law and Clinics Accreditation
Until recently, IVF and related fertility treatments were unregulated in Poland. A large debate on the topic of reproductive health delayed the passing of proper legislation for many years, leading many clinics to operate in a "grey market" of sorts. A bill laying out the fundamentals of treating infertility was finally passed in 20156; it lays out the correct procedures and standards of care for patients.
Clinics are required to acquire accreditation from the Minister of Healthcare. They are compelled to submit the results of all treatments performed to the Ministry for statistical purposes; those statistics aren't available to the public. Many, although not all, clinics also submit their data to ESHRE – they publish annual reports, although with a large delay (their report for the year 2014 was released in 2018, for instance). Clinics are also subjected to annual inspections in order to ensure proper standards of care are upheld.
Patients are only allowed to fertilise up to six oocytes at once, unless there are medical indications to generate more embryos. Disposal of surplus embryos is illegal and can result in up to five years in prison; as such, surplus embryos can be stored for future use, or donated to another couple. Embryos can be stored for twenty years at the longest.
Donors are required to have their information recorded into a nationwide registry. Data recorded includes the donor's year and city of birth, their phenotypic characteristics, their medical history and results of examinations prior to the donation. This data is available to any child born through donor conception once they reach 18 years of age.Find Best IVF Clinics in Poland

Privacy: Electoral Roll for sale? - Grin with cat attached — LiveJournal
|Privacy: Electoral Roll for sale?
|May. 13th, 2002 03:45 pm
Local Government Minister, Nick Raynsford today published draft regulations that will allow two versions of the electoral roll to be published. These changes balance the individual elector's right to privacy and the needs of others to carry out their functions.
Under the regulations councils will from December 2002 have two electoral registers - a full register which will be used for electoral, crime prevention, and other limited purposes such as checking people's applications for credit, and an edited register which can be sold to anyone. Electors can choose whether they want their names and addresses to appear on the edited register.
The full text of the regulations and policy paper can be found at: http://www.elections.dtlr.gov.uk/consult/register/index.htm
It's an improvement. At the moment they're required to sell it to anyone willing to pay - one of Thaggie's money-making moves. Of course, it wasn't officially for sale before that, so companies paid people to copy it out by hand. That must have been a soul-destroying job. It would be nice if the government would tell the junk-mail barons to take a running jump, but I can't see it happening soon.

Qantas will boost the number of economy and premium economy seats on its Airbus A380s and shrink the high-priced business class cabin as the airline continues to face tough times on international routes.
The rejigged superjumbos will gain an extra 39 economy seats, with most of those on the upper deck where the premium economy cabin was previously located, for an overall tally of 371 economy berths compared to the current 332.
In turn, premium economy will be nudged forward into the rear of today's business cabin, picking up three more seats in the process for a total count of 35 over the current 32.
This shuffle sees the business class section lose eight of the lie-flat Skybed seats, going down from 72 to 64.
Another change that's sure to rankle business travellers: half of the toilets in the upper deck business class section must now be shared with premium economy passengers.
On the A380's lower deck, Qantas has retained its 14 luxe first class mini-suites while squeezing in an additional nine economy seats.
Five self-service snack bars axed
Qantas has also removed two self-service bars from the business class cabin and axed the sole self-service bar and snack area for premium economy passengers, while the downstairs economy section loses one self-serve facility at the front of the cabin.
The makeover allows Qantas to pack another 34 passengers onto its A380s, lifting the headcount from today's 450 to 484.
A Qantas spokeswoman confirmed the new A380 layout to Australian Business Traveller this morning, saying "The reconfiguration of 12 A380s better suits customer demand on long haul legs including Los Angeles and London."
The first reconfigured A380 was returned to Qantas over the weekend and will begin flying this week.
"All 12 Qantas A380s are scheduled to be reconfigured by April 2013 and operate on routes including Sydney - Hong Kong, Sydney - Los Angeles, Melbourne - Los Angeles and Sydney - Singapore - London" the spokeswoman told Australian Business Traveller.
How the new A380s look
This quick sketch illustrates the major changes upstairs, superimposed on the old A380 seating chart so you can see what's changed:
Here's the official seatmap for the reconfigured Airbus A380, as supplied by Qantas to Australian Business Traveller.
Click on the image for a larger view, or check out the full-sized seatmap if you want to scope it out on a super detailed seat-by-seat basis.
Business class and premium economy lose their best seats
Business class drops down from 72 to 64 seats on the upper deck -- so if you're booked in a business seat further back than row 22, best to check your booking to see that your seat hasn't changed.
The fantastic seats in exit row 24 have been lost to premium economy, unfortunately, leaving business class without exit row seats -- only less spacious bulkheads.
However, good news comes in the form of two sets of twin seats at the front of the second business cabin.
Seats 15AB and 15JK are now either side of the galley kitchen that separates them, making them a choice for privacy (but potentially not for quiet, since they're next to the galleys).
In premium economy, row 38 (a middle block of three seats) plus seats 38J and 38K were top picks for their copious legroom beyond the standard 38 inch pitch.
They now vanish, with all premium economy seats arrayed in a standard 2-3-2 layout and only the front row, which faces the emergency exit doors, offering extra room for your pins.
More premium economy (and economy, too) upstairs
You'll now find 35 premium economy seats upstairs, further forwards than on the other Qantas A380s.
It starts at row 24 and stretches back five rows in a 2-3-2 configuration. Pick emergency exit row 24 for the most leg room.
Where premium economy used to be at the back of the upper deck cabin, you'll now find economy, but it's slightly complicated in layout.
The front two rows, numbers 32-33, are in a standard 2-4-2 layout. Row 34 just has the centre four seats.
Rows 35 and 36, however, on the centre and right hand side of the cabin, in a 3-2 configuration. Seats D, E and F are in the centre, with J and K on the right.
The best economy seats look to be 35J and 35K, which have emergency exit legroom, with row 32 also decent.
Avoid seats D, E and F in rows 34-36: they're right next to the pair of lavatories.
Longer queues for the loo
You'll also face a longer wait to use the toilet, especially in business class.
We've done the maths: there used to be four bathrooms for 72 business class passengers, along with two reserved for 32 premium economy passengers.
Premium economy will now share the same two toilets as the bulk of business class travellers, as those loos are relocated from the front of the larger business class cabin to the rear boundary between business and premium economy.
The revised headcount and loo count means the same four bathrooms must be shared between 99 passengers.
(There's also one fewer loo in the downstairs economy section, resulting in seven toilets for 341 economy passengers instead of eight toilets for 332.)
Where you'll find the revamped plane
With only one new plane in the fleet, it'll be pot luck as to whether your flight is on the new plane. The best way to tell is to check your seat options periodically:
- First class: no change for you, so you won't need to have your people check
- Business class: if you can see a row 24 in business, you're on one of the older planes
- Premium economy: if there're six rows of premium economy in rows 34-39, you're on one of the older planes
- Economy: if you can see seats on the upper deck, you're on the new plane
If you're looking out for the refurbed bird, it's rego VH-OQD and named Fergus McMaster (after one of the three founders of the original Queensland and Northern Territory Aerial Services back in 1920).
And if you're travelling on this plane you'll want to check with a Qantas gate agent whether your seat assignment has changed -- and whether there's a better one available to you!

Where has the snack bar gone: are we expected to go downstairs for it now?
And the loss of 38 J and 38 K is sad news. Look at the Qantas A380 Seat Map, and you'll see why that has to be my favourite seat on the plane.

Don't know how accurate it is, if QF haven't released a seat map, but theqantassource.com has what they say is the new seat map, and the 4 toilets for J remain aft of Row 13, similar to where they are now. If this is correct, J will NOT be sharing toilets with PY, but PY will be sharing the existing 2 toilets with the new Y cabin.

The Qantas Source and a few other sites changed had this listed as 362 economy seats for some time this morning, Qantas has confirmed to AusBT in this article that the count is 371 seats so I think TQS and others might not have the latest information?

I don't mind new seats but the self-serve snack bars was definitely the thing to look out for on Qantas A380s. I wonder if Qantas may even reconfigure their 747s by the looks of things.
I was told last year the Sydney Morning Herald that Qantas wanted to get rid of their First Class or shorten it to 8 seats but it doesn't look like so. I guess this comes after winning about 5 awards for best economy, 2 for best premium, no awards for new 'and better' business (said Marc Newson) and not getting any awards for the A380 design.

Here we go again...Qantas downgrading their product offering even more. Sure you want to make more money with extra seats, but maybe they should have looked at a better configured Business Class seat instead of ripping out things such as the self service bars.
It's the little things that make an airline stand out.

Premium economy is 'the biggest loser' in this A380 reconfig. I love the Qantas A380 PE cabin, it really added an extra bit of 'premium' being like a little private cabin.
Now it will still have some of that of course but as this article makes clear you lose some of those 'extra legroom' seats plus the self-serve snack bar plus you now have to share the toilets with business class. It's nice that you get to use business class washrooms because they have nicer lotions but for premium ecnomy this reconfig is pretty much 'all take and no give'. :(

at the risk of sounding like one of those armchair CEO's - it seems an interesting business strategy to reduce levels of amenity for your clients at the same time you try to claim to be a leading carrier and are struggling to convince people to fly with you. Then again what do I know. Glad I took up the Virgin match offer. The Virgin A330 business seats are WAY better than those in the poor old QF 767's and new A330-200's with the super cramped 'updated' seats, which are 2-2-2 but with an extra row thrown in for good measure over the original aircraft.

John please don't tell customers to check with the gate agent. The gate agents are very much preoccupied with the on-time-depature and don't have time to change seats last minute!
Seating allowcation is done only at check-in by the Customer Service Agent or at the check-in Service Desk.

Hey, if anyone has travelled on the new Qantas A380 (I mean the revamped one) in Business Class, can people please put up the best seats as I am travelling next year to LAX from SYD, and I, personally, are fretting about what seats to choose!

Gee, what a surprise! Guessing that we couldn't have seen this coming? In a year or so, the A380's will be as cramped as every other aircraft. And getting people on and off will take even longer now - it was bad enough as it was!
I was wondering if there are any Australian and/or international health and safety standards covering the number of loos per passenger (i.e., must be at least "X" loos per "Y" passengers for aircraft carrying at least "Z" passengers)?

WHEN the latest crop of Serengeti Boys, expected to represent Tanzania in the continent's African Youth Championship (AYC), slated for April, this year, first demonstrated their prowess in the CECAFA tournament, the Tanzania Football Federation (TFF), President, Wallace Karia, promised, in public, that the federation would organize academic studies to be conducted at night after training whenever the boys were in residential training.
Now that was many months ago, and I had expected to read a story on the progress of the promise that was, but as you read this piece, I have yet to come across such a story.
However, having flirted with this profession called journalism in this country for over four decades now, I'm not surprised by the absence of such a story, and this is because of our kind of journalism which is allergic to follow ups on our stories.
Indeed, had our journalism included, what is actually supposed to be locally and internationally, follow ups on pronouncements made daily by officials from all socio-economic sectors; our print and electronic media would not have been turned into what they are today, namely, events journalism.
But that is a subject for another day and not in this genre as it requires separate treatment. However, for today, let me review the TFF President's promise which is likely to have been made in the heat of the moment, not to find out whether or not the promise was implemented, but rather on the importance of such pronouncement if it was implemented.
Simba Sports Club on the other day spoke about their intention to establish soccer academy within the precinct of their club, a pronouncement that ought and must be emulated by other clubs, especially those in the premier league.
But whichever club embarks on such a novel idea, it must also ensure that the children are also exposed to a strong, academic education on account of the fact that there is no meaningful success in sports today without sound education.
But because the centre of such soccer academies is going to revolve around soccer, the children should be exposed to what could rightly be described as foundation subjects for science and arts, mathematics (for science) and Kiswahili, English and any other strong international languages, French etc. (for arts subjects).
In short, any efforts in search for a highly trained, qualified and experienced soccer coach or coaches should be as vigorous as the search for highly trained, qualified and experienced Kiswahili and English teachers on account of the importance of the two subjects for those who fail, after the age of 14 to make it to professional soccer rank.
And because soccer coaches would be as good as Kiswahili and English teachers, those who fail to meet the demands of a professional footballer could easily be allowed to pursue normal education programmes. And, because they would be very strong in Kiswahili, English and mathematics, it would not be difficult for them to continue further with their studies outside football.
But why do I insist on the introduction of foundation subjects like Kiswahili, English and mathematics in soccer academies? In the event of a child being found to have what it takes to become a professional soccer player, it would be easy for him to communicate with non-Tanzanian soccer coaches both at home and abroad.
As I have had occasion to note in my columns in the past, I'm strongly convinced that apart from wrong attitudes, one of the reasons we still have problems when it comes to our soccer teams' participation in regional and international tournament is that most of our local soccer players have problems in understanding foreign coaches most of whom have working knowledge in English.
And, failure to understand a coach, automatically leads to failure to understand the coach's technique and tactics that translates in turn to defeat. Of course, one may argue that language may not be a problem because of the presence of what is referred to as football language which is done through demonstration.
However, there are times when the coach is supposed to give a lecture on the possible strength and weaknesses of the opponents and how to overcome whatever challenges expected from their opponents. And here demonstration does not work as the player is supposed to listen and understand what the coach is saying; and that is where problems usually start.
One of the tell-tale signs about the existence of language problem between our players and foreign coaches is best illustrated by the failure, on the part of our players, to play according to what they had been advised by their coach.
More often than not you would hear foreign coaches saying; 'I told them to play a particular formation, they did, but only for a few minutes…but reverted to their individual way of playing, and that eventually led to our defeat.'
For a player that understands and appreciates what instructions mean or entail; he would also know where such instructions fit in, in the game's big picture in terms of what formation to employ where, when and why.
Let us change and embrace sound education in our soccer academies. We don't need to burden our children with many subjects. Just get Kiswahili, English and mathematics, and if the three subjects are taught well, we would be surprised with how soccer is going to be transformed in this country. It is now or never.

"Challenge accepted"
At age 19 I had already lived in Thailand for 2 years. During my first year of university I was paired with a wonderful roommate who introduced me to some Buddhist principles and had told me she'd gone to several meditation retreats including a 10-day silent meditation retreat in the province of Surat Thani. As it turned out, Suan Mokkh was one of the few that offered an English-speaking retreat. And so, as one odd 19 year-old I hopped on a train that following summer to Suan Mokkh. During my entry interview, I don't think I impressed the monk asking me what I was doing here by answering that I saw this retreat as "a challenge". He laughed, said I was the youngest person there and with a smile said young people "always love a challenge". Then his face changed and with a more serious tone told me that he didn't want to see me quit halfway through. And so I thought "challenge accepted".
How to meditate
The 4th day was rough, after the novelty and excitement of the first few days, I found myself having more and more trouble meditating, I was restless. At that time I thought meditating was shooing away thoughts, without acknowledging them at all, just brushing them off as soon as they crept in. Surprisingly, what I thought would be difficult did not turn out to be that we were sleeping on wooden panels and a wooden pillow, or that we would have to wake up at 4.30am, or that we would only eat twice a day (monks only once daily). My mind was not at peace, I started having nightmares, and began to wonder… why do people meditate?! Only years later did I understand how to meditate and that a big part of meditation was to acknowledge our current state of mind and the thoughts, from there you start to let go of your thoughts as they come and go. I did complete the retreat, what the monk had told me gave me a purpose on difficult days, and I hope to return to Suan Mokkh with what I know now.
Why meditate?
After all this, I still wondered why should we meditate? As a researcher, I wanted to know what effects were attributed to meditation? Practioners of yoga or meditation will tell you that meditating is beneficial for many reasons, but… what does science tell us? When I first looked into peer-reviewed articles I was not expecting so much variety in terms of the meditation being used, the setting, the participants, the research design. And it seemed like all my questions about meditation had been researched already. From reading about brain imaging studies to wellness studies, here's what I found on the biological evidence, neuropsychological tests, and emotional wellbeing.
Mindfulness and meditation, what's the difference?
First things first, I will be mentioning meditation and mindfulness, but what's the difference you may ask? Meditation includes a variety of techniques to achieve a heightened state of consciousness, to acknowledge the fluctuations of the mind and self-regulate them. Mindfulness is being aware of bodily sensations of stress and of reaction patterns in a non-judgemental manner. For example, you've most likely attended a class here at Luna (if not, get in here!) or elsewhere where the teacher asked you to focus on your breath. That would be doing a mindful meditation on the breath.
Studying the brains of meditators
When I looked for evidence I first stumble upon a talk by Rohan Dixit, one of the first scientists to mediatize the fact that meditation has an effect on the brain. Thanks to cooperative monks in northern India, Dharam Sala and Ladakh, Rohan is researching long-time meditators and linking meditation with specific brain patterns. Many other research teams have looked at the effects of meditation on the brain using meditators as subjects, such as Mathieu Ricard pictured below. Mainly, research has focused on a very interesting brain region called the insula, located in the depth of the center of the cerebrum (brain), is involved in attention, salience, and self-awareness. Several articles have pointed to the involvement of the insula in "top-down" attention; paying attention on purpose, and "bottom-up" attention; attention elicited by the environment. In addition, this region seems to be in-between sensory reception and executive function. Researchers have described it as a switch button; from not engaging with the environment to paying attention to a specific stimulus. And guess what? Meditation has been linked to better top-down attention, and executive control. In fact, a review of 78 brain imaging studies has shown that the insula and other brain regions such as the amygdala associated with cognitive control and self-regulation have different activation patterns in meditators vs non-meditators.
Back to you
So what can we take in from that, surely we can't know for sure how and if our individual brains are affected by the fact that we mediate. However, research does suggest that certain regions are associated with meditation which means that overall meditation seems to activate certain regions of the brain that are associated with cognitive control. But how does this translate into your meditation practice? Studies have shown better execution of certain psychological tasks - or neuropsychological tests if you want to be fancy – in meditators from the Stroop Tasks which involves impulse control and attention. And this might be an effect that you have noticed after meditating or after a yoga class savasana. Are you better at focusing on specific things in the present moment, do you have less thoughts interfering with what you are doing at the time? Do you feel like you make better decisions?
Up next… what does research suggest about mindfulness and happiness?
About me
Hi! I'm Lea, a fervent student of neurosciences, mental health research, and a yogi since 2008! After completing my bachelors in biomedical sciences in Thailand, I came to Montreal to do a masters studying mechanisms of depression… and now I'm studying some more as a doctoral student in Psychiatry at McGill University. I'm still devoted to the study of depression, some might say it is a gloomy subject, but it being quite prevalent in the world and highly complex, I find it to be a fascinating topic! On occasion the week day scientist in me meets the weekend yogi in me and they wonder about topics like this one, why meditate? I hope you enjoy this blog post, and leave your comments below or come to my class Saturdays 9.30am!

So I hear you want to climb a mountain....
How F I T do you feel to tackle that hike you've been dreaming about? Maybe it's something daunting like Wedgemount or something more mellow like Elfin Lakes. Whatever your adventure of choice may be, myself and Lynn from What Lynn Loves Blog have got you covered - we're bringing you our 5 favourite hikes this summer season! You can check out her rendition here www.whatlynnloves.com/whistler/crater-rim-trail-hike
We started with a beginner level hike, Cheakamus Lake which you can find HERE and will be increasing in difficulty over the coming months to help you conquer whatever hike you want to tackle! Along the way, I will be providing progressive exercises to get you strong and fit so you can take on any adventure feeling confident and coming out pain and injury free.
Hike #2 - Crater Rim Trail & Logger's Lake
Searching for a hike that's moderate, very quiet and rather unknown to the general public? Look no further than one of the best kept secrets in Whistler – Logger's Lake. Don't let the name fool you; this lake has an interesting history that far precedes the existence of logging workers. This hidden gem deep in the Whistler Interpretive Forest, which lies in the territories of the Lil'wat Nation and Squamish Nation, was formed at the base of a 10,000 year old extinct volcano! The history becomes apparent when you look around and see that you're surrounded by crumbling walls of a bowl-shaped crater that is laden with beautiful hiking and biking trails to enjoy.
It takes a quick 10 minutes to get to the lake - that's the easy bit. Once you reach Logger's Lake and you snap a few photos to take in all it's glory, it's time to get the hike started so you can see the view from the top! The ascent starts strong but clear with a climb over roots, rocks but nothing too difficult - which makes it the perfect intermediate level for our second hike. The elevation gain is 314 m and the length is around 4.5 km which took us 3 hours, but we stopped to take lots of photos and to enjoy snacks! Speaking of eating....
I often get asked about what food I bring on my hikes and, in fact, it's a running joke with my friends that I never leave home without snack of some sort... and it's true! Even on short hikes, I always like to bring some sustainable fuel to keep me going. For those of you who don't know, I have a chronic auto-immune disease called Rheumatoid Arthritis that limits the types of food I can have so needless to say, it's a huge challenge to find healthy, easy, and portable snacks. Luckily, I have found the incredible brand Hippie Snacks that offer products that are organic, dairy-free, gluten-free and freaking delicious! They're made with nothing but real organic fruits, veggies, nuts, seeds & grains seasoned with natural ingredients for a super satisfying snack that you don't feel bad about. They make my belly, my brain and my body very happy!
I could tell you more about the hike but I'll let Lynn tell you the rest on her blog HERE.
Now it's time to get to the good stuff - the E X E R C I S E! The last instalment built your foundation with with the fundamentals - squats, dead bugs, and lunges. (You can check it out HERE if you haven't already.) Now it's time to up the ante and get you working harder so you can get H I K I N G S T R O N G E R! We will focus on more challenging exercises, specifically single leg work because isn't an intense hike really just a bunch of lunges going up a mountain?
It's important to remember that one of the best ways to get better at hiking is… well… hiking! Putting in the kilometres is a surefire way to improve your fitness. You always want to ensure you're incorporating more elevation gain to challenge you further, which is why we chose this hike. It may not be longer but it certainly is more challenging than Cheakamus Lake! With that being said, there are certain tactics to improve and enhance your hiking experience - we can use targeted exercises to build your strength and stability so you can enjoy a long day up (and down!) the mountain and walk away from it free of back and knee pain.
Workout #2 - The Level Up
For this instalment, our focus is to build upon the foundation you started 3 weeks ago. By now, your squat should be solid and your dead bugs should feel easy. Here's the exercises we're going to use to level you up:
1. weighted SQUAT
Now that you've mastered the technique of the bodyweight squat, it's time to add resistance to make it stronger and more challenging. You can add a dumbbell, kettlebell, barbell, loaded back pack, toddler, ANYTHING to give you the resistance you need.
Stand with your feet slightly wider than shoulder width (keep in mind that foot position varies from person to person so go with what feels comfortable for you). Your toes should be pointed slightly outward – about 5 to 20 degrees outward.
At the top, engage your core to keep your spine in a neutral position, i.e. don't round or hyperextend (over arch) your back. Think about 'bracing', like someone is going to punch you in the belly, then maintain this core tension throughout each rep.
Think about 'turning two dials' outwards underneath your feet to create tension in your glutes. We call this "spreading the floor" which provides proper knee and pelvic stability by engaging the powerful glute complex.
Next, initiate the movement by hinging at the hips and sending your butt back slightly prior to dropping down into the squat (this is important to place the emphasis of the movement on the large muscles of the hip joint as opposed to the smaller knee joint).
As you squat down, focus on keeping your knees in line with your feet. Many new lifters need to focus on pushing their knees out so their knees don't collapse inwards. Do not allow the knees to fall inside of the feet! We call this "spreading the floor" - imagine you're ripping a piece of paper underneath your feet in half.
Aim to reach a parallel depth, which means your hip crease is in line with the top of the knee. Also, the angle of your spine should roughly match the angle of your shin if you were to look at yourself sideways. No more of this "knees can't go over toes rubbish"! If you have questions as to why, send me a message.
To ascend, drive through the heels while "spreading the floor" to obtain power from the glutes and to keep the knees aligned. Maintain neutral spine with a braced core until the 'lockout' is reached at the top of the movement.
2. Bulgarian split squat
We're taking our lunge to the next level with the Bulgarian split squat, also called rear foot elevated split squat, or Bulgarians for short. It is paramount for hiking that we have solid single leg strength and this exercise is one of my favourites for building just that.
It's important to remember that the working leg should be the FRONT LEG. It is common to see people pushing off the back leg but this will do nothing to strengthen your leg muscles or improve your stability.
Initiate by placing back foot on top of a box, table, or bar in a comfortable position that you can maintain throughout the set. Ensure there is width between your feet as well as enough distance that you can comfortably lower yourself down.
While maintaining a braced core with neutral spine, initiate the movement through the hips by hinging back and keeping the weight in your heel - this allows focus on the powerful hip musculature which will power you up those slopes. Then lower your butt down towards the heel of your standing leg with slow control - don't just drop down! Go as far as your flexibility and strength will allow. Ideally, you will lower yourself until your back knee is hovering above the ground but this may take time to build up the necessary strength.
Keep a slight hinge forward through the hip so that your body weight is shifted over the middle of the front foot. Again, this encourages utilizing the strength of the front leg to return to the start position as opposed to kicking off the back leg.
To initiate the ascent, drive the heel into the ground to active glutes and use your front leg to push yourself up to the start position. Watch your knee alignment - do not allow the knee to collapse inside of the foot.
Notice that the position at the bottom of the split squat looks very similar to the position of the regular squat - angle of the spine should be parallel to the angle of the shin. Remember, the weight is over the front leg and the back leg is there for support and nothing else.
4. romanian deadlifts (two legs)
After mastering the hip hinge pattern of the glute bridge, it's time to learn the Romanian deadlift which focuses on core, hamstrings and glutes. We need strong glutes to protect our knees and lower backs from overuse injuries that can happen during our long-duration activities.
Standing with feet hip width apart and toes pointed directly forward, contract the core and initiate the movement by hinging the hips, pushing your butt behind you while keeping a soft knee. Go as far as you can until you feel a stretch in the hamstrings - if you go any further, you will only round through your lower back which isn't safe so please be mindful of your limits. Your back should be neutral and your core should be engaged to prevent rounding or overarching in the lower back.
Ensure your knee alignment is staying stacked above your ankles - do not let the knees collapse inwards. Imagine you are "spreading the floor" throughout this exercise too.
To return to the start position, imagine squeezing your glutes to push your hips forward to the top position. If it helps, think about tucking your tailbone under while you lockout at the top of the movement to ensure you are not overarching, which I frequently see in this exercise.
3. weighted SINGLE LEG ROMANIAN DEADLIFT
Now that you've mastered the single leg RDL as we trainers endearingly call it, it's time to increase the challenge and add some weight! This exercise is one of my favourites - it targets hamstrings, which MUST be strong to balance out our dominant quads, and the glute medius which stabilizes the knee and pelvis, which is paramount to preventing injury.
It is important to remember that the leg you are strengthening is the standing leg, not the one that you are extending behind you.
While maintaining a braced core with neutral spine, initiate the movement by hinging through the hips of the standing leg. Maintain a soft knee as you push the hips back while reaching down towards your toes. The back leg will lift simultaneously as the chest lowers towards the ground. Imagine there's a broomstick attached from your head to the heel of your back foot to keep everything aligned.
In the bottom position, your hips should both be pointed towards the floor, i.e. there shouldn't be any rotation otherwise we are not properly strengthening the glute medius or hamstrings.
To return to the start position, push through your heel and contract the glute of the standing leg and drive your hip forward until you lockout at the top position.
5. Torsion control
Now that you're dead bugs are dialled, it's time to incorporate a anti-rotation exercise. A strong deep core keeps our backs supported and safe during long hikes especially if you're carrying a backpack.
Start in a hand-plank position with hands directly under shoulders, feet shoulder width apart and weight distributed evenly between hands and feet.
Engage your core to create stability. Remember that this is an anti-rotation exercise so the point is to control (i.e. prevent) rotation by keeping your core BRACED. If it looks like you're not moving, then you're doing it right!
While holding your core tight, reach over and tap the opposite elbow in a slow and control fashion (should be 1 tap per second, no faster). Start with 5 taps per side and build up to 15 per side to improve core endurance.
5. Lateral band walks
We often forget about training laterally, or sideways, movements when it comes to training but incorporating exercise like the lateral band walks strengthen the glute medius which helps to prevent chronic knee and back pain and injury often sustained in our endurance activities like hiking.
Place a medium or heavy fitness loop just above the knees, or below the knees if you want to make it more challenging.
Hinge through the hip to set your hips back and to load the glutes. Initiate the movement by stepping sideways with the 'forward' leg while stabilizing with the 'back' leg. Think about opening your knees wide to lead the movement instead of leading with your feet, which can cause the knees to fall inside the feet leading to an ineffective exercise.
Ideally, you should feel this on the upper sides of your glutes on both sides. The form can be tricky on this so please let me know if you have any questions!
I recommend for a beginner to complete 3-4 sets of each exercise for 8-15 reps. Intermediate level exercisers can complete 5-6 sets of each exercise.
Stay tuned for next instalment where we'll be adding more challenging exercises to get you
These are just a few examples of exercises that will get you fit this hiking season. If you want to learn technique or are looking to expand your exercise library, get in touch and I'll get you on the road, er, trail to success!

For those of us whose pockets don't bleed money, laptops priced around $1,000 are far more practical, such as the Digital Storm xm15. Of course, you should expect some sacrifices for the lower price.
You know those folks that dress for utility instead of style? The ones that wear flak jackets and ammo belts to dinner parties? The Origin EON15-S is their laptop equivalent.

- Additional Information
Chekhov for the 21st Century. Carol Apollonio and Angela Brintlinger, eds. Bloomington, IN: Slavica Publishers, 2012, 197–210. "Put Yourself in the Place of a Corncrake": Chekhov's Poetics of Reconciliation Radislav Lapushin On 6 March 1888 Chekhov sent a letter from Moscow to Alexei Pleshcheev in Petersburg. Though not nearly as famous as Chekhov's "credo" formulated the same year in a letter to the same correspondent ("My holy of holies is the human body, health, intelligence, talent, inspiration, love, and the most absolute freedom imaginable, freedom from violence and lies, no matter what form the latter two take"1 ), one key paragraph in this letter is equally reveal-‐‑ ing of Chekhov's artistic vision and philosophy. The paragraph follows an extended discussion of literary matters: having just read two critiques of his recently published The Steppe (Step', 1888), Viktor Burenin's article in New Times, and a private letter from Pyotr Ostrovsky (the younger brother of the playwright Alexander Ostrovsky), Chekhov proceeds from a lengthy discussion of the latter to his overall vision of contemporary literary criticism, and the way it should advance in order to free literature of "a thousand-‐‑score false doctrines." What is needed, he argues, is "a guerilla-‐‑ style, irregular criticism" (partizanskaia, irreguliarnaia kritika) distributed via pamphlets, as opposed to regular criticism in journals and newspapers. In the third paragraph, which is my subject of inquiry, Chekhov addresses his cor-‐‑ respondent directly: Now—how is your health? Do you ever get out into the fresh air? Judging by Burenin's criticism of Merezhkovsky, it must be freezing in St. Petersburg now, somewhere between 15◦ and 20◦ below zero… And even though it's still damned cold, the poor birds are already on their way back to Russia. They are driven on by homesickness, by love for their native land. If poets only knew how many millions of birds fall victim to love and longing for their homes, how many freeze on the way, what [how many] tortures they endure in March and early April when they come home to roost, they would long ago 1 Anton Chekhov's Life and Thought: Selected Letters and Commentary, ed. Simon Karlin-‐‑ sky, trans. Michael Henry Heim in collaboration with Simon Karlinsky (Evanston, IL: Northwestern University Press, 1999), 109. Alternative translations inserted in brack-‐‑ ets.—R.L. 198 RADISLAV LAPUSHIN have written about it… Put yourself in the place of a rail [corncrake] who walks all the way instead of flying, or the wild goose who is willing to surrender himself to man rather than freeze to death… It's a hard world to live in! [It's hard to live in this world!]2 The paragraph opens with a casual (and rather unremarkable) inquiry about the addressee's physical condition and whether he is taking the air. Then, it briefly returns to literary matters, namely Burenin's mocking criti-‐‑ cism of Dmitry Merezhkovsky's poem published in the same issue of The Northern Herald as Chekhov's The Steppe.3 The mention of this poem becomes a "device" that leads the reader—in this case, the sick Pleshcheev—into the outside world; it serves as a transition from the protective warmth of the house to the cold outside. After opening the space horizontally, the passage follows the author's gaze from the ground to the sky, or, to put it otherwise, from the world of human beings to that of the "poor birds […] already on their way back to Russia." The spatial extension signifies a noticeable shift in the narrative voice: from the casual to the poetic style. Though the borderline between these two styles is marked by an ellipsis, the "accidental" rhyme Merezhkovskom – chertovski makes the transition natural and seamless. This poetic style, however, is far from homogeneous: the conversational intonation and syntax (Kholodno chertovski, a ved' bednye ptitsy uzhe letiat v Rossiiu!) paves the way to the overtly elevated language, especially if applied to birds (toska po rodine; liubov' k otechestvu) marked by the emphatic triple repetition (how many millions of birds; how many of them freeze; how many tortures), the application of church Slavonicisms (preterpevat' muki) and addi-‐‑ tional rhymes (aprelia – vospeli). The shift to the poetic is remarkable since the passage seems to be explic-‐‑ itly polemical in regard to poetry and poets. "If poets only knew," says 2 Ibid., 97. "Теперь – как Ваше здоровье? Выходите ли Вы на воздух? Если судить по критике Буренина о Мережковском, то у Вас теперь будет 15-‐‑20◦ мороза… Холодно чертовски, а ведь бедные птицы уже летят в Россию! Их гонят тоска по родине и любовь к отечеству; если бы поэты знали, сколько миллионов птиц делаются жертвою тоски и любви к родным местам, сколько их мерзнет на пути, сколько мук претерпевают они в марте и в начале апреля, прибыв на родину, то давно бы воспели их… Войдите Вы в положение коростеля, который всю дорогу не летит, а идет пешком, или дикого гуся, отдающегося живьем в руки человека, чтобы только не замерзнуть… Тяжело жить на этом свете!" (Letters 2: 211). 3 In particular, Burenin had written: "The winter this year, as everyone knows, was very cruel, the...

From September 18 through the end of the month, 5 goats will be at work and the two islands below will be temporarily closed. What Happened? (view update) Ten goats from Twin Willow Ranch in Milan, MI, cleared poison ivy and buckthorn on two of Gallup's islands between June 6 and June 27, 2019. This pilot project is part of an ongoing effort to clear out the overgrowth and invasive shrubbery as park staff work toward a long-term maintenance plan. 'Goatscaping', an old-fashioned solution to plant control, allows us to address poison ivy, overgrown brush, and invasive plants in non-chemical ways. Goats will eat invasive plants like honeysuckle and buckthorn, in addition to other plants like poison ivy. The two islands (circled below) accessible by the foot bridge were closed during the goat's stay.The HerdClick the picture below to read the goats' biographies and learn a little more about our 2019 goat team.Update: July 2019The goats have been removed from the islands and are back on their farm. In three weeks, they cleared both islands of overgrown brush, poison ivy, and invasive plants. See the before and after pictures below to see just how dramatic this change was. View these photos and more in our facebook photo album. Goat Talk & Walk Success!Thank to all who attended our three Goat Talk & Walk opportunities, asked questions, and volunteered! We calculated 195 people gave a total of 322 hours of their time to beautifying Gallup park. We mulched trees and beds, weeded garden beds, and removed old plant bulbs. Thank you ALL for your interest in our goats and giving some of your time to our parks! Goat Talk & Walk Images Next steps Now that the goats are onto their next job, our parks department can take a clear inventory of the islands, determine how they can best be utilized by the public, and build a long-term maintenance plan. We expect some of the plants to grow back in the coming months, and it could take a few more pass-throughs, goat or human, to create more of a long-term impact.Additional ResourcesPilot Program Fact SheetPress ReleaseGoats in the News"Weeds got your goat?

text: I had heard about Amanda's story prior to the lecture by Dr. Duncan, but I never knew it was this ridiculous. Amanda's cell being raided by the Italian police and having her sexual history and health information released to the public seemed like it should be illegal. Whether she's guilty or not, such information should have never been released without her consent. I think it has to be even more difficult being featured in the news of three different countries, probably even more. Since there was no DNA evidence linking Amanda to her roommate's murder, I think that Amanda being in jail for four years was probably the most ridiculous part of all. I can't remember who, but I recall someone saying in class that Amanda would've been much better off if she was ugly. Yes Amanda could have looked more presentable in court, but how someone looks should never be used as a basis for his or her character. Amanda's story is a very good example of connotation and how meanings and symbols can be misconstrued in one country and deemed acceptable somewhere else simply because of historical and social context.

Luisa Muñoz del Valle was a teacher, poet, and journalist born in Sancti Spiritus, Las Villas, Cuba, on June 4, 1906.
The daughter of Luis Muñoz Valdés and Francisca del Valle Gonzáles, she was baptized Luisa María Juana Muñoz del Valle. For her early education she attended the Colegio San Francisco Javier in Sancti Spiritus. She began her postsecondary education at the Escuelas Normales de Santa Clara, Las Villas, ultimately earning her degree in education from the Escuelas Normales de la Habana, in 1930.
Muñoz taught in private schools from 1930 to 1938 while studying for her doctorate. She later went on to complete her doctorate in Pedagogy at the University of Havana, receiving her degree on November 18, 1937. During this time she had already started writing her poetry. Her first major award as a poet was at the Juegos Florales in Sancti Spiritus where she was awarded the Flor Natural (First Prize) for her poem, "Civilización Occidental" in 1934. In 1935, encouraged by Cuban poets Andrés de Piedra-Bueno and José Angel Buesa, she published her only book of poetry, Angelus.
In 1936 Muñoz received national recognition when her poem "Romance de la Virgen de la Caridad" won third place at the Eucharistic Congress and Coronation of Our Lady of Charity. From this point on, she published her poems frequently in magazines such as San Antonio, Azul, El Fénix, La Milagrosa, and Semanario Católico, with which she had collaborated since 1928.
Muñoz pursued another professional interest, in journalism, at the Escuela Profesional de Periodismo "Manuel Marquez Sterling." When she graduated in 1950, she was first in her class—the first time a woman had done so. After spending a year studying in Spain through a scholarship from the Ministry of Education, she started working as a journalist, predominantly for Alerta!, where she edited the daily Catholicism column.
Luisa Muñoz worked less after the Revolution since many newspapers were closed down by the policies of the Castro regime. She chose, however, to remain in Cuba instead of going into exile like the rest of her family. She stayed living in Havana, publishing her poems whenever possible, while her health increasingly weakened. Her family in Miami, particularly her brother, Dr. Luis B. Muñoz del Valle, tried to convince her to leave during the Mariel exodus in 1980 but she refused because she felt she would burden her family too much. Her health continued to deteriorate until her death on August 2, 1987.
