Enter The Science Circus at The Mind Museau

Ladies and gentlemen, Science Circus has come to town!


MANILA, Philippines – Be ready to #EnterTheScienceCircus!

Science Circus: Step Right Up! is the 5th traveling exhibition of The Mind Museum,  supported in part by Mastercard, Limkaco Industries, Uratex, and Thompson Hardware and Lighting Center.  

The Science Circus: Step Right Up! showcases the amusing, the peculiar, and the extraordinary in our everyday experiences, in the form of interactive exhibits that deceive the senses and boggle the mind.

While the nearly 250-year history of the circus abounds with awe-inspiring demonstrations of physical skill – such as high-flying aerial artists, to death-defying daredevils – the Science Circus challenges our traditional notions of a circus by focusing on the mind’s “acrobatic” perceptual tricks.  

As the guests enter the exhibition, they are welcomed by a festive, colorful façade which sets the tone for the sights and sounds they are about to experience. These interactive exhibits are displayed simultaneously in three adjacent Rings. Guests can go in any of the Rings in the order they please.

Ring One, or Deception Perception is a menagerie of exhibits that will prompt you to question whether to see is to believe. Can you always trust your senses? Is what you see as real as it seems? Can your brain produce motion where there is none? Your first venture into the Circus will unveil the “blindness” of your mind’s eye.

Ring Two highlights Pieces of Incredible Engineering, where guests can engage their minds in puzzles and relish how math and art come together. This central area is animated by simple machines, and engages guests in activities that evoke their inner engineer.

Last but not least, Ring Three is Encounters with the Masters, where guests can interact with and learn the secrets of the Masters of Illusion. They can take on the challenges posed by each Master, and discover how our brains can be ensnared by smoke and mirrors.

Visit the Science Circus: Step Right Up! exhibition right now for another wonderful ride through the world of Science! To make it even more enticing, a special treat awaits!

SUN Life Financial Asia Health Index reveals Philippines the highest in Asia for lack of exercise



The Philippines tops the list of countries in Asia where people don't exercise regularly, according to this year's Sun Life Financial Asia health Index.

The Philippines tied with Thailand and Malaysia on the list, with 61% of the population in each of the three countries not engaging in any regular physical activity. Asked to identify the barriers to living a healthier lifestyle, 57% of Filipinos blamed it on their lack of time due to work, 47% admitted that it is due to "lack of personal motivation," while 47% also identified "distractions of modern life." Other key barriers named were cost (45%) and the lack of accessible venues to engage in sports and recreation (36%).


With the aforementioned findings, it appears that the population dubbed "Generation O" still exists.

Composed of individuals who are overworked, overweight and overwhelmed, "Generation O" is a segment of the population first identified in the 2014 survey of the Sun Life Financial Asia health Index. The latest study finds Generation O continuing to struggle with their health goals.

But there is hope...


The Asia health Index also showed that Filipinos are still very positive about the state of their health. In fact, the Philippines scored the highest of all the markets surveyed on the overall Health Index, garnering a score of 89. Respondents from the Philippines were the most positives ion Asia about their emotional health, wherein they were the most likely in the region to say that their emotional health is "good" or "extremely good," and was second most positive in the region (behind Indonesia) when it comes to their physical health.

"With all the things that demand our time and attention, it's usually our health that suffers because it's relegated to the least of our priorities. However, this should not be the case," SLAMCI President
 Riza Mantaring said. "This is why we, at Sun Life have been boosting our suite of wellness products and mounting events that would help Filipinos to pursue their health goals."

Sun Life recently launched SUN Fit and Well, a new generation wellness product that offers comprehensive life and health protection from childhood all the way to the golden years. While most products offer benefits only when an illness strikes, SUN Fit and Well covers needs from prevention, to diagnosis, to treatment and all the way to rehabilitation.

 

For prevention, SUN Fit and Well provides access to GoWell, Sun Life's wellness program where members can enjoy special privileges that will help them keep mind and body fit. This includes easy access and wellness information, fitness and wellness events, nutrition and health experts, and more.


"Sun Life remains committed to helping Filipinos face a brighter tomorrow by being in the best of health," Mantaring added. "The results of the Asia Health Index reiterate the need to promote a healthier lifestyle, and Sun Life wants to be Filipinos' partner in pursuing this journey."


The Sun Life Financial Asia Health Index is a periodic study of health trends in Asia that was launched in 2014. The research is based on the findings of an Ipsos survey conducted in August 2016. A sample of just 4000 Asians from 25 to 60 years of age and with middle class incomes was interviewed online from Mainland China, Hong Kong, India, Malaysia, Indonesia, the Philippines, Singapore, Thailand and Vietnam. The survey questioned respondents on their attitudes towards healthy and active living, their health concerns for the future and expectations on access to healthcare.

Positive Psychology of Coworking Spaces Like The Common Space

The Common Space, Pergola Mall, BF Homes, Paranaque
Recent studies show there are problems associated with working at home or at a coffee shop such as suffering the feeling of isolation. Most of us have internet connection at home or can go to a coffee shop to work online, yet with the social support system that is created in a coworking space that is vastly different from a traditional work place as which has supervisors, being in such a work environment greatly enhances productivity as each coworker goes about with their independent activity.

The Common Space, Pergola Mall, BF Homes, Paranaque

A coworking space is a modern social work environment, and there are other positive factors to having this kind of shared office space. It is possible to network, there might be collaborations, sharing of ideas, gaining or providing feedback, and since there is no task interdependence, the pressure and stress found in a traditional workplace is not present. Neither is the high noise level of coffee shops and other wifi zones - and the atmosphere greatly aids in focusing on work plus the vibe of a work environment is present.

The social group of a coworking space brings about supportive behavior. Though each coworker is independent, can be interaction, and with the ethical nature of being in a coworking space, like keeping the voice low, having to clean up after using the pantry facilities, ensuring that the area used is clean after use - there is a responsibility that comes with having a shared office space.

As more independent professionals seek to have an office space that is affordable with complete facilities, there are a number of coworking spaces in Metro Manila like The Common Space. You'll find these coworking spaces in the heart of business districts such as Makati and Bonifiacio Global City.  


There are many coworkers that are into software design, web development, consultancy, language services, consultancy, management, journalism, blogging, and writing. Renting a coworking space for a day or for even longer is a practical decision, and provides more savings that renting a traditional office that requires a down payment, advance rental, furnishing the rented place, and having to install an internet connection, and having to get an assistant. A coworking space is a ready-made office that does have a receptionist, and all that you need for an office is there.

There is a coworking space in Paranaque that provides the positive psychology atmosphere and has complete office facilities. It is The Common Space, located at the 2nd floor of Pergola Mall, Aguirre Avenue, BF Homes. It is open from Mondays to Saturdays, from 9 am to 9 pm. There is wifi, unlimited coffee and other beverages like tea. This can be used as a virtual office for mail handling and for the address to be used in corporation papers, and can be rented for meeting places and events. You may get more information by clicking this link to visit The Common Space website .

Is Your Vitamin C Safe


The New Year gives us another chance at a fresh start. After the unhealthy lifestyle during the holidays, our immune system is just starting to recuperate and get back to normal. One sure way to speed up its recovery is to take optimum levels of Vitamin C.

But did you know, that when taking Vitamin C, we have to be careful of several factors such as the type and quality of Vitamin C because not all vitamin C are the same!

The most common type of Vitamin C is ascorbic acid. This type of vitamin C has been by far, the cheapest form of Vitamin C, but did you know that when taken at higher quantities, ascorbic acid is not exempted from harmful side effects. Diarrhea, Nausea, Stomach Cramps, Headache, Hyperacidity, Hot flushes and Heartburn are just some of the symptoms of taking too much ascorbic acid.

In the recent decade, Sodium Ascorbate has given the public the safest and most effective type of vitamin C. Bewell-C (Sodium Ascorbate) is a non-acidic Vitamin C supplement that is rapidly gaining popularity among the public as a high quality and effective brand. Bewell-C is the next generation vitamin C that provides all the benefits of vitamin C without the risk of hyperacidity.
Doctors recommend that we take 2 capsules per day of Bewell-C. Some people require a higher dose per day if they are experiencing the following:  
Flu:

People suffering from Flu virus are recommended to take 6 capsules of Bewell-C per day and 4 capsules while recovering from flu. Whereas, those who are suffering from colds and cough are recommended to take at least 6 capsules until they have recovered.

Research study also pointed out that most healthy adults get a cold two or three times a year and taking large doses of Vitamin C daily shortens the duration of colds.

Smokers and Alcohol Drinkers

Alcohol, Nicotine and other substance in cigarette causes cell damage and drains vitamins and nutrition from your body.
Smokers and those who often drink alcohol experience lower immune system and are susceptible to various diseases thus, they are required to take at least 4 capsules of Bewell-C to help maintain their health.  

Post-Surgery

People who underwent surgery are recommended to take high doses of Vitamin C as much as 6 capsules Bewell-C daily to hasten wound healing. Vitamin C is essential in the formation of new connective tissue in healing wound.

For those who need both Vitamin C and Calcium, Bewell-C plus calcium is also available in the market. Just like Bewell-C, this product also uses non-acidic vitamin C paired with organic calcium fortified with Vitamin D for stronger bones and teeth.

Bewell-C and Bewell-C Plus Calcium is available in all leading drugstores nationwide and on Lazada.com.ph Online Shopping: http://www.lazada.com.ph/bewell-nutraceuticals-corporation/. For more updates, follow their FB: https://www.facebook.com/bewellcsodiumascorbate
