    *sticky note* Your muscles activate your brain receptors. So knowing that your brain is more active with your muscles, exercising them would be a huge benefit and aid to a better lifestyle

    *sticky note* Mental exercise for the brain: on an everyday basis our brain is learning a new skill. This uses a lot of power from our brain which requires us EXERCISING our brain physically and mentally ***Example of an exercise you can do whenever you are on the computer: switch the hand you are using to move your mouse. It must feel pretty awkward but it's alright you are exercising movement AND learning a new skill at the same time.

    *sticky note* If you think sitting behind your computer or TV screen is going to get you smarter... Think again! It really doesn't in fact it affects us in a bad way. Weakens our eyes, and uses so much energy from our brain. Where on the other hand, just walking can benefit us a ton. It helps our blood circulation and the oxygen/glucose that reaches our brain.

    *sticky note* Exercise improves our memory, helps us remember our studies, wakes up our brain in the morning. Enhances our brain cells, creates higher brain functions. These are just the *few things that exercising does for us. It is quite amazing

    *sticky note* Exercising also helps our aging process. Exercise fools our brain into thinking we are younger when we begin exercising on a daily basis which could be great for you. Who wouldn't want to feel 40 when they're really 50? I know i would

    *sticky note* Physical exercise protects our brain as we age, it creates endurance and a motivated/confident mindset which obviously can aid us in a huge way in the future.

      Survival Stress is when your body reacts to danger by pumping adrenaline so you can fight off the dangerous moment. For example, if you were in a forest fire, your body would pump adrenaline so that you can run at intense speeds.
  • Internal Stress

      Internal Stress is when your body stresses about situation that you have no control over. This is a very dangerous kind of stress! Most mothers deal with this kind. For example, if their son or daughter were on a school trip and they were stressed about their safety and health but yet they can't do anything to help the situation.
  • Environmental Stress

      Environmental Stress is when your body reacts to the people around you, the noise or the amount of pressure you're under from either friends, work or family. For example, a student has a lot of work and their mom and dad have high expectations of their grades.

      lack of humility = lack of empathy = comes of as a jerk, the world revolves around me na na na
  • tend to be defensive
  • latest evidence indicates that narcissists are actually secure or grandiose at both levels
  • The sometimes dangerous lifestyle may more generally reflect sensation-seeking or impulsivity (e.g., risky sex, bold financial decisions).

      Like men who like messing around with different women; could be the lack of empathy that drives them to not care about the women's emotions once they 'hit it and quit it'... maybe some boys are not necessarily just jerks, but their brains have developed? to be narcissistic and thus get around the block... could be the same for women who enjoy fame and or money

    general description of narcissim- a good article to read as a 'start' to the subject. Reliability: very popular website, editors+writers from the site have educational background, REAL LIFE MAGAZINE (seems convincing enough to me)
