Mindful Mindset

When was the last time you took to yourself to do things you enjoy❓❓❓❓

According to the American Institute of Stress, 73% of American people regularly experience psychological symptoms caused by stress. Our hectic lives and exhausting jobs can have a negative impact on our health. We find ourselves tired all of the time, and we can barely find free time to do what we truly enjoy.

Finding a balance between the pleasant and the necessary might be tougher than expected; however, it is not impossible. A good way to release anxieties and worries is meditation. Through meditation, our bodies connect with our souls, and we start feeling inherently connected to our energies.

In our new episode we welcome TheNurturedNurse where we talk about meditation and many other things.

ADH helps the kidneys, and body, conserve the correct amount of water. It regulates and controls the amount of water in your blood. Osmotic sensors and baroreceptors work with ADH to maintain water metabolism and regulation.

SIADH

Syndrome of inappropriate antidiuretic hormone secretion occurs when excessive levels of antidiuretic hormones are produced.
The syndrome causes the body to retain water

• Hypovolemia
• Hypernatremia: >145
• Hyperosmolarity in blood: >295
• Hypo-osmolality in urine:
