Tidbits, Links, & Resources

Hi HEALers!

Hope you had a fantastic Thanksgiving this week. As many of you know, I’m always burrowing through the web to find interesting tidbits, links, and resources that may interest you all. Here are a few I found down the rabbit hole:

Ever wonder how a cat is able to land on its feet?  Or how we survive our birth transitioning from a liquid to gaseous environment?  Or question the physics of a poop splash?  Smarter Every Day is the brainchild of mechanical engineer Destin WS2!  Check out his educational video series here on YouTube.

Have you watched this TED presentation by Dr. Koller on expanding free online education?  Well, Stanford University has responded to the challenge. Check out Stanford’s Venture Lab! A free series of online courses offered this fall.

While we are on the topic of TED talks, enjoy this pithy lecture by Rory Sutherland on how great design can shift our perspective.

As I perused your blogs, here’s what some of you had to share:

Laura sends her regards as she embarks on her MA. We will miss you!

You’ve hit the one-year mark!

Interested in attending a silent retreat?

Shhh…I’m listening to the sound of colour!

Empowering children through self-regulation.

Understanding the impact of mental illness.

You are what you eat!

If you love children’s author Mem Fox, you’re going to love this piece on
Wilfred Gordon McDonald Partridge.

Wrap this around you. But I’m not sure when…

Have a wonderful day!

Cheers,
