The Swedish Speed Camera Lottery And Healthy Living
Stockholm experimented with rewarding compliance while punishing free-riders: if you drove at or under the speed limit, you were entered into a lottery where the prize fund came from fines that speeders paid. The so-called speed camera lottery is the perfect solution for facilitating behavior change on the roads. But could social gamification improve healthy living and make healthcare systems more sustainable? The Fun Theory Put In Practice Kevin Richardson entered into Volkswagen’s The Fun Theory competition in 2010 with his idea about the speed camera lottery. The concept was so powerful, that a year later, Stockhol...

The group requests state Attorney General Xavier Becerra to take a position on Compassion & Choices’ legal opinion that its notice of appeal with the 4th District Circuit of Appeal triggers an auto...

CA Court Rejects Group ’s Motion to Vacate Its Ruling Voiding Medical Aid-in-Dying Law Court to Hold Hearing on June 29 to Consider Separate Vacate Motion by Attorney General
A Riverside Superior Court rejected a motion filed by Compassion & Choices on behalf of a physician and two terminally ill adults urging the judge to “vacate” (i.e., cancel) his judgment last week invalidating the End of Life Option Act. However, the court judge, Daniel A. Ottolia, scheduled a hearing on June 29 to consider a separate motion by California Attorney General Xavier Becerra to vacate the judgment. Similar to laws in six other states and Washington, D.C., the California law gives mentally capable, terminally ill adults with six months or less to live the option to request prescription medica...

6 reasons children need to play outside
Here’s something really simple you can do to improve your child’s chance of future health and success: make sure he spends plenty of time playing outside. There are many ways in which this generation’s childhood is different from that of the last generation, but one of the most abrupt contrasts is the degree to which it is being spent indoors. There are lots of reasons, including the marked increase in time spent interacting with electronic devices, the emphasis on scheduled activities and achievements, concerns about sun exposure — and, for many families, the lack of safe outdoor places to play. It’s not just ch...

California AG Emergency Request to Reverse Court Ruling to Invalidate Medical Aid-in-Dying Law
The California attorney general has filed an emergency request with the state court of appeals to reverse a lower court ruling to invalidate the End of Life Option Act. The End of Life Option Act remains in effect until further notice. Similar to laws in Washington, D.C. and six other states, the California law gives mentally capable, terminally ill adults with six months or less to live to the option to request prescription medication they can decide to take to end unbearable suffering and die peacefully in their sleep. Last Tuesday, Riverside County Superior Court Judge Daniel Ottolia invalidated the law ...

Premarin, whole grains, and why you can ’ t believe headlines

The Roller Coaster Ride of Grief
I was talking with someone recently about grief when she said that it felt like being on a roller coaster ride. This person is facing the impending death of a loved one even as there is no definitive timeline per the treatment team. We spoke of the dynamic of anticipatory grief and the ways in which it impacts the process of letting go of this person as she plans her future in the face of his eventual absence. I have found both in my therapeutic practice and in my personal life, that anticipatory grief genuinely effects mourners, although a 2006 article published in the Counseling, Psychology, and Health Journal questions...

Music Offers Many Cognitive, Emotional and Physical Benefits to Young and Old
“Music is therapy. Music moves people. It connects people in ways that no other medium can. It pulls heart strings. It acts as medicine.” — Macklemore Much research over the years has centered on the potential, perceived and realized benefits of music. In fact, the area of study has blossomed, growing from the preliminary findings of earlier studies to recent ones that built upon them. What’s exciting is the widespread and diverse benefits that music offers to everyone, young, old and in-between. Musical training gives babies’ brains a boost. Even before babies can walk or talk, they can benefit from receivin...

Group Warns D.C. Death with Dignity Act Opponents Not to Try to Repeal Law Again
Compassion & Choices praised Congresswoman Eleanor Holmes Norton for her vow today to prevent congressional opponents of Washington, D.C.’s Death with Dignity Act from repealing the law this year, as she did last year.  The DCDWDA gives mentally capable, terminally ill adults with six months or less to live the option to get a doctor’s prescription for medication they can decide to take to die peacefully in their sleep if their suffering becomes unbearable. Rep. Brad Wenstrup (Ohio), who authored a House concurrent resolution condemning medical aid in dying in 2017, said two w...

How to Really Rest
It seems silly to write an article about rest. After all, rest is kind of like breathing: It’s automatic. Or rest is like brushing your teeth: It’s something we naturally do every day, several times a day. But for many people rest isn’t part of their lives, at least not regularly, or at least not genuine rest. Many of us are too focused on striving and never stopping. Because, we think, to stop is to quit. Because, we think, to stop is to be lazy. So, we wait to rest until we’re so exhausted we can’t get up. Many of us find it hard to rest because we’re perfectionists or we fear failure (or both), according...

Optogenetics Sparks New Research Tools
Imagine if scientists could zap a single cell (or group of cells) with a pulse of light that makes the cell move, or even turns on or off the cell’s vital functions. Scientists are working toward this goal using a technology called optogenetics. This tool draws on the power of light-sensitive molecules, called opsins and cryptochromes, which are naturally occurring molecules found in the cell membranes of a wide variety of species, from microscopic bacteria and algae to plants and humans. These light-reacting molecules change their shape or activity when they sense light, so they can be used to trigger cellular activity,...
