  Laughter is the best medicine!
I'd like to share with you Laughter Yoga, as it profoundly uplifts my life. Laughter Yoga has connected me with that inner place of well-being from which springs joy. As a physician and healer I’m still blown away by the power of Laughter Yoga to heal, uplift and create well-being. Everyone can practisce it. Besides, it's fun.
  Village festival
Sasaya is a small rural village in northeastern Japan. It consists of one street with houses on both sides. Behind these long narrow homes runs a river, which considerately divides itself to flow on both sides of the street. The water is crisp and cool, coming straight off a nearby mountain. Locals use it untreated for drinking and cooking. And since it never freezes, despite the rugged winters, it’s appreciatively used year-round.
  Soft machines
New technologies can help lessen the sonic impact of generating and consuming energy. Here's a look at some of the most promising developments in planes, trains, automobiles—and windmills.   A magnet that will draw you toward health and happiness
This isn’t your ordinary mattress. It can help alleviate stress or pain and improve sleep. And that’s just the beginning. Magnopro offers great promise as a magnetic therapy. Just use it twice a day for 15 to 30 minutes, and you’ll notice that the electromagnetic systems of your body are more balanced. In a world in which electrical appliances disrupt the natural magnetic field, that’s not a luxury.
