...introduction of the knowledge and skills framework (DH 2004a) and emphasis on quality of health care and patient centred, interprofessional, health and social care (DH 2000; Leathard 2003; Thompson et al. 2002) health care professionals and students will need to be able to demonstrate the quality of our care and team working abilities. There is a connection between practice and thinking about practice – action and reflection are interdependent; they need one another. Reflection may be triggered by an awareness of a gap between theory and practice, a difference between what ‘should be’ and ‘what is’ (Sullivan & Decker 2005). Our actions and the quality of our care are improved by reflection-on-action, by making sense of what we have experienced, and thinking about how we might act differently in the future (Lillyman & Ghaye 2000). Reflection has a rôle in maintaining one's personal portfolio and maintaining competency and continuing professional development. Support and supervision from managers, who already have a responsibility for assessing competence and continuing professional development of staff can help make this process much easier (Jasper 2001). Reflection is a very personal matter, through our reflections we learn not only about our own feelings and knowledge of the situation reflected upon, but also something about our own personality (Rolfe & Gardner 2006). Unlike most academic work a reflection is...

...IGOROTS * Home * IGOROT SONGS * IGOROT DANCE * IGOROT TRADITIONS * MONEY ON THE MOUNTAIN IGOROT TRADITIONS IGOROT TRADITIONS When we talk about Igorot identity and culture, we also have to consider the time. My point is that: what I am going to share in this article concerning the Igorot culture might not be the same practiced by the Igorots of today. It has made variations by the passing of time, which is also normally happening to many other cultures, but the main core of respect and reverence to ancestors and to those who had just passed is still there. The Igorot culture that I like to share is about our practices and beliefs during the "time of Death". Death is part of the cycle of life. Igorots practice this part of life cycle with a great meaning and importance. Before the advent of Christianity in the Igorotlandia, the Igorots or the people of the Cordilleran region in the Philippines were animist or pagans. Our reverence or the importance of giving honor to our ancestors is a part of our daily activities. We consider our ancestors still to be with us, only that they exist in another world or dimension. Whenever we have some special feasts (e.g., occasions during death, wedding, family gathering, etc.), when we undertake something special (like going somewhere to look for a job or during thanksgiving), we perform some special offer. We call this "Menpalti/ Menkanyaw", an act of butchering and offering animals. During these times we call them...

According to ancient Vedic texts (and later through Tantric and Taoist traditions), the energetic, or subtle, body is the foundation of the food, or coarse body, and the bridge between the physical and causal realms. Therefore, the structure of the subtle energetic body provides an intended means for human spiritual development, or evolution (which enables humanity to fulfill its purpose as a conduit between heaven and earth, hence transforming into an entity more subtle, and original). The text’s primary purpose is to present oriental bio-energetic theory, and second, to bridge...

...NOTE: This PDF document has a handy set of “bookmarks” for it, which are accessible by pressing the Bookmarks tab on the left side of this window. ***************************************************** We are the last. The last generation to be unaugmented. The last generation to be intellectually alone. The last generation to be limited by our bodies. We are the first. The first generation to be augmented. The first generation to be intellectually together. The first generation to be limited only by our imaginations. We stand both before and after, balancing on the razor edge of the Event Horizon of the Singularity. That this sublime juxtapositional tautology has gone unnoticed until now is itself remarkable. We're so exquisitely privileged to be living in this time, to be born right on the precipice of the greatest paradigm shift in human history, the only thing that approaches the importance of that reality is finding like minds that realize the same, and being able to make some connection with them.
