Repost from :(At Robert W. Coleman Elementary in Baltimore, staff replaced detention with a “Mindful Moment Room” — a soothing space filled with soft lighting and plush pillows where students practice breathing and meditation instead of traditional punishment.
Partnering with the Holistic Life Foundation’s “Holistic Me” program, the school supports students with yoga, mindfulness, gardening, environmental cleanup, and even leadership roles as co-teachers. Parents have shared stories of their kids helping them de-stress by teaching them to breathe.
Since implementing this approach, the school has recorded zero suspensions since the 2014-15 year — a remarkable shift showing the power of self-regulation, reflection, and connection.)

🧬 BREAKING: Psilocybin Extends Human Cell Lifespan by Over 50%—New Study Unveils Surprising Longevity Potential

Psilocybin, the psychedelic compound traditionally known for its mind-altering effects, may have a powerful new application: slowing down the biological aging process.

In a groundbreaking study published in npj Aging, scientists from Emory University and Baylor College of Medicine found that psilocybin extended the lifespan of human cells by more than 50%. The researchers treated skin and lung fibroblasts with psilocin—the active form of psilocybin—and observed significantly delayed cellular senescence.

But it gets even more intriguing.

Aging mice given monthly doses of psilocybin had their survival rates jump from 50% to 80% over a 10-month period. The treated mice not only lived longer, but also showed fewer visible signs of aging such as fur whitening and hair loss.

This is the first direct experimental evidence that psilocybin may offer longevity benefits, pushing its potential beyond mental health treatment and into the realm of anti-aging science.

🧪 While further studies are needed to explore long-term effects and optimal dosing, this discovery opens a bold new frontier: psychedelics for life extension.

Scientists at CERN's Large Hadron Collider have successfully transformed lead into gold atoms, achieving an ancient alchemist dream through modern physics.

The Large Hadron Collider is a giant particle accelerator that smashes atoms together at super-high speeds. Scientists there have found a way to knock three tiny particles called protons out of lead atoms, turning them into gold atoms.

Instead of crashing lead atoms head-on, the team behind this discovery looked at what happens when the atoms just barely miss each other.

Thailand has rolled out its first AI-powered police robot! Named “Pol Col Nakhonpathom Plod Phai,” the robot made its debut during the Songkran Festival to boost public safety in Nakhon Pathom. Equipped with 360-degree cameras and real-time facial recognition, the “AI Police Cyborg 1.0” monitors crowds to detect high-risk individuals and possible threats. Created by Provincial Police Region 7 in collaboration with local officials, it also syncs with live CCTV and drone feeds to issue rapid alerts. Thoughts 👇
