Young Living™ is a company with over 25 years of experience in the distillation of essential oils with 9 owned farms throughout the world that pledge to maintain the highest standards of quality in the field of aromatherapy.Īt the end of the day, if you’re interested in Aromatherapy altogether–here are 10 simple facts to know about what these little liquid gold have to offer: Cutting corners by creating synthetic natural identical, adding odorless fillers or mixing essential oils from different provenance is a common practice to cut costs and lure some uninformed customers. Steam distilling essential oils is an art involving processes from seeding to harvesting with attention to detail that not all companies practice with integrity. Not all called “essential oils” are made equal. ![]() The misuse or misunderstanding of some users cannot replace historical data, common sense nor scientific evidence. What I love most about aromatherapy is that it works so well on the mind, body and spirit, which perfectly fits my philosophy of a holistic approach in reaching, sustaining and optimizing equilibrium (also known as homeostasis). There is so much scientific evidence to support the benefits of essential oils and their chemical compounds on the human mind and body. A raindrop technique can be administered as a monthly maintenance session to improve overall health and build resilience. A raindrop technique session can help many of us struggling with sustained levels of stress that disrupt our immune system creating these unwanted yet chronic health concerns to naturally get a boost of energy promoting faster recovery. So, how can this treatment help you? The properties of the essential oils used in this technique are recognized to be extremely effective in improving symptoms such as inflammation, pain, fatigue, physical weakness, congestion of the lymphatic and respiratory systems, nerve pain as well as joint and muscle soreness. The effects and benefits of such method are impressive to observe on the nervous, circulatory, immune, and musculoskeletal systems of humans and animals alike. The main purpose of a raindrop session is to help the subject return to homeostasis, a state of physical, mental and emotional balance. This technique consists of the application and massage of 7 single essential oils and 2 blends directly on the spinal column and the feet. The Raindrop Technique was created in the 1980’s by Gary Young. After visiting their facilities, lab and farm in Utah, reviewing their ingredients, and using their products on myself, I’ve never engaged or trusted more in a company and the quality that they provide. I choose to use Young Living™ because they adhere to this French standard. Aromatherapy in France is widely recognized and valued as a natural and effective form of medicine. My interest for Gary Young, founder of Young Living™, first came because of his worldwide experience in essential oils, but more so because of his background in learning from renowned french pioneer in aromatherapy, Dr. After these experiences, I received my training and certification in the Raindrop Technique through Young Living™ and I completed my certification as a clinical aromatherapist through the ISHA institute (Institute of Spiritual Healing and Aromatherapy). It worked beautifully on these animals–so I quickly realized the benefits that it would have on myself and the people that were coming to me for help. I was so impressed by the effectiveness of this treatment. At the end of the session, both animals seemed to have found peace and balance. ![]() I then participated in a raindrop technique that was performed on a small dog with anxiety and compulsive eating behaviors. He seemed engaged with the therapist manifesting contentment, displaying a relaxed lower jaw, his tail was down and loose, and twinkling his eyes softly accompanied by soft snoring sounds of appreciation. Not only did he appear very calm, his demeanor shifted –his behavior was completely changed. The animal’s transformation was really visible: no more pinned ears, no kick attempts, no shifting his weight back and forth or compulsively moving his head from side to side. After 30 minutes or so into the session, we were all in awe. As told for safety reasons, the observing group kept a good distance around the duo therapist and horse while watching. At the start of the gathering, the horse seemed agitated, apprehensive, and therefore unpredictable from what his owner explained. ![]() ![]() ![]()

The art of the north-west coast, for example, was the attempt of the hunter/artist to represent as many characteristics of an animal as possible without regard to distortion of the image. But his strengths were his weaknesses, many viewed him as incapable to arrive at conclusions that his immense data sets should have allowed. In denying economic determinism, he took on most of the country. He also took on the hypotheses of the Freudians, who traced the structure of modern society to prehistoric Oedipal guilt. According to "evolutionary" theories, human society evolved in stages and the so-called "primitive" peoples were therefore viewed as having been retarded in these stages. Boas was hostile to sweeping theories of human nature and society. Boas' students became the leading generation of anthropologists of the next generation, including Margaret Mead, Ruth Benedict, Robert Lowie, Edward Sapir, Zora Neale Hurston, Leslie Spier, Jules Henry, and Ashley Montagu. In a 1938 article in the Nation, he scorned the patriotism and nationalism in both Germany and the United States as "the herd instinct in man." Boas suffered a heart attack at a faculty luncheon at Columbia in 1942. However, he never forgot the racial laws in his adopted homeland. As fascist Germany embraced the very racial theories Boas strove against, Nazis burned his books in 1933 at Kiel, where he had received his doctorate. In 1928, Boas' Anthropology and Modern Life urged social scientists to be cautious of easy racial theories and be more investigative. In it, Boas underscored that differences between the art of the "primitive artist" and western art were due to the constraints imposed by culture rather than any lack of ability. In the mid-1920s, Boas researched his book on the art of indigenous cultures, Primitive Art, appearing in 1927. participation in the war against his German homeland put his Columbia job in jeopardy. Here he argued no racial group is genetically "pure" fending off warnings that immigrant would degrade the United States into a "mongrel nation." Countering a prevailing notion in the United States that immigrants would pollute the American gene pool, Boas published a 1912 paper, "Changes in the Bodily Form of Descendants of Immigrants," in American Anthropologist which outlined immigrant populations changed as much with diet and surroundings as other groups. As an anthropologist, Boas is best known for this 1911 book, The Mind of Primitive Man. Boas developed an interest in folk traditions, editing the Journal of American Folklore from 1908 to 1925. Speaking in 1906 at Atlanta University, he decried American discrimination toward blacks as akin to Jewish prejudice. Boas used his first-hand anti-semitic experiences to challenge racial and geographic theories for human accomplishment. ![]() Denying that abstracted animal forms of Inuit and African art were a degeneration of realistic representation, he hypothesized hunting peoples emphasized the important parts of an animal rather than represent it in linear perspective. Around 1900 Boas first put his mature ideas of folk art forth. In 1899 he was appointed a full professor of anthropology at Columbia University. ![]() However, he was fired because of a personality dispute. The next year he was named curator of ethnology at the American Museum of Natural History in New York in 1895. Between 1888-1892 he taught at Clark University. The following year he began field studies on the area which would occupy him for much of his life, the Northwest Indian tribes. In 1887 he married Marie Krackowizer and became an assistant editor of Science Magazine in New York. Boas lived in New York (1885) before returning to Germany where he was appointed a privatdozent in geography at the University of Berlin. In 1883 he traveled to Baffin Island in the Northwest Territories (later Canada) making the observation that culture more than geographic situations determined indigenous art forms. A non-religious Jew, he was fascinated by the theories of geographical determinism in Europe at the time. Boas obtained his doctorate in physics at the University of Kiel in 1881. He attended Bonn, Heidelberg, and Kiel universities studying physics, mathematics, and geography, the latter under the distinguished Theobald Fischer. Boas was the son of Meier Boas and Sophie Meyer (Boas).

Of course I'm going to order my iPhone 14 Pro Max as soon as I can. These past couple years I've done my very best work on iPhone, as you've seen in my Yosemite (October 2021) and Central Coast (April 2022) galleries. I'm sure you all know the specific specs, but when you ask " is it worth it," considering we all of take an average of at least ten photos a day on our iPhones even when we're not actually deliberately out taking pictures, as something we all use all day, every day, of course it's worth it. I'll have full reports on the iPhone 14 Pro Max as soon as mine arrives, and know that every iteration of iPhone for the past 15 years has always been much better than the one before.

This can be turned into a “real” common reduct in an infinitary λ-calculus ![]() Recall the head-internal decomposition of β-reduction: a reduction $M \rightarrow_(\theta) = \lambda f.fff\ldots$ I’ll also go through some exercises in my upcoming post.The result, left as an exercise by Barendregt (Exercise 6.8.9), is proved by Klop in a 2007 paper (Proposition 1.2). If you want to know more terminology and formal illustrations, this medium article and the lambda calculus wikipedia page may be a good start. So, we have Y g = g (Y g)! Just like rec!Ĭool right? By now you have grasped the concepts of the Y combinator. = g (g ((λx.g (x x)) (λx.g (x x)))) (infinite replacements can be made)įrom lines 2 and 3 above, we can see that Y g = (λx.g (x x)) (λx.g (x x)) = g ((λx.g (x x)) (λx.g (x x))) = (λx.g (x x)) (λx.g (x x)) (replace f with input g) x ( U U x)) g, so after the second you have g(UUg) g ( U U g) as required, but you havent substituted the second x x correctly, leaving both it and the g g that the function is applied to, giving you g(UUx)g g ( U U. Let’s verify that it behaves like rec by giving it an input g: Y g = λf.(λx.f (x x)) (λx.f (x x)) g (replace Y with its definition) After the first reduction, you (should) have (x. Like loop, we can encode rec in lambda calculus too! But we call rec ‘Y’ in lambda calculus this time, because this encoding is the famous Y-combinator that lets you have recursion in any languages: Y = λf.(λx.f (x x))(λx.f (x x)) The general recursion function can easily become any recursive function because f can be whatever you like! The Y-combinator = f (f (f (.)).) (infinite replacements can be made) = f (f (rec f)) (replace rec f with f (rec f)) In mathematics, it looks like this: rec f = f (rec f) A general recursion function (named rec) takes itself as the input. Self-application takes us to general recursion. (λx.x x) is applied to an input like itself! General Recursion We got this property from the self-application of the function (λx.x x). You can see that encoding loop as above gives us a function that behaves like loop. = (λx.x x)(λx.x x) (infinite replacements can be made) In loop, one applies the function (λx.x x) to the input (λx.x x): (λx.x x)(λx.x x) = (λx.x x)(λx.x x) (replace each x with the input) Recall that in lambda calculus, what we do with two items side by side is to apply the first item as a function to the second item as an input. When you evaluate loop, you go to loop‘s definition, which is loop! We can encode a function that behaves like loop in lambda calculus: loop = (λx.x x)(λx.x x) The function loop does only one thing: calling itself. In this video, Professor Hutton shows us the simplest recursion he can think of: If you haven’t read my last post already, please do so! It’d be easier for you to follow this post, especially if you don’t know any lambda calculus. This enables you to do recursion in any languages! In this post I further proves the point by encoding recursion in it. In the last post I talked about how powerful lambda calculus is. ![]() ![]() The Pumpkin Flavored Swirl and Pumpkin Flavored Cream Cold Foam contain dairy.
