Mirroring and Maturation: Mirroring is a psychological activity where you observe yourself as if seeing your reflection, allowing you to gain self-awareness separate from your current reality. By creating this mental ‘mirror,’ you can see yourself as others might, which is a form of self-objectification. Adequate mirroring facilitates more accurate reflection on and correction of mistakes, ultimately leading to improved actions and decisions. Over time, this process helps you become more mature. Practicing self-objectification can also make others feel comfortable with you and may increase their reliance on you. This process is also known as self-reflection. Everyone has a mental mirror, but many neglect to keep it clear through regular self-examination. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
The "normal human body temperature = 37°C" standard was established in 1851 by the German medical doctor "Carl Reinhold August Wunderlich", who took millions of temperature readings from about 25,000 people and reported "36.2°C to 37.5°C". However, surveys in the United States in 1992 and the United Kingdom in 2017 found 36.8°C and 36.6°C, respectively. So in the past people deemed that the discrepancy was due to errors in old measuring equipment or methods. But Julie Parsonnet and her colleagues at Stanford University's School of Infectious Disease Epidemiology found a common thread in the temperature databases: People are cooler now than they were then. It wasn't just a measurement error. They speculated that medical advances had reduced inflammation and lowered the average temperature. We don't question the obvious. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
