„Smegenys, kaip ir raumuo, ką treniruoji, tą ir turi. Jei mums pavyksta nulaužti „išgyvenimo režimą“, mes stipriname save“, – pasakoja laidos viešnia psichologė, vadybos konsultantė Solveiga Grudienė. Dėkingumas yra galinga emocija, galinti padidinti laimės jausmą, o taip pat pagelbėti sunkiais gyvenimo momentais.Kodėl ir kaip į mūsų gyvenimus ateina dėkingumas būtent tuomet, kai išgyvename sudėtingus etapus? Kokia dėkingumo nauda? Ką apie tai sako tyrimai? Nuo ko pradėti dėkoti, kaip atrasti dalykus, už kuriuos galime būti dėkingi? Kokios praktikos rekomenduojamos?Paskutinėje šių metų laidoje – pokalbis apie dėkingumą ir jo galią.Ved. Žydrė Gedrimaitė

It's Christmas Eve! Merry Christmas! Our bodies are feeling a little cranky, a little sore, and carrying babies through this hot, hot summer is no small physical feat. If you're feeling it too - you're not alone.R&R (Recipe & Recommendation)Recommendation: Get into the water — the ocean, the pool, anywhere you can dunk your head under. A good pair of togs, a sarong, some funky jewellery and a great hat go a long way. Sink into the slowness, enjoy being by the water. You bloody deserve it doll. Recipe: A refreshing Mango Chia Seed Pudding — cool, nourishing and perfect for summer. Find the recipe hereRecommendation: The MCO Beauty Lip Mask — a summer staple for dry, tired lips. Shop it hereRecipe: A festive Christmas Quencher (non-alcoholic punch) — hydrating, celebratory and perfect for Christmas Eve sipping. Lil's Mums text about the quencher reads: It starts with a lemon/sugar syrup -maybe 1 cup of sugar, juice of 2 lemons, 1 cup of water long strips of the lemon rind (use vegetable peeler) big sprigs of mint. Boil together till sugar dissolves. Cool leaving rind and mint in the syrup until you put the quencher together. Add the strained quencher base to a large tin of pineapple juice, ginger ale and soda water.Ps while we're talking about Lil's Mum the naked reference quote from this weeks chat is here A very Merry Christmas from us to you, we're so grateful to be in all the seasons alongside you. Beth's PicksLil's Picks

Mums priekšā ir krietns brīvdienu skaits. Kāpēc gan tās neizmantot, lai vismaz kādu dienu vai divas neveltītu aktīvai atpūtai dabā? Par ziemas dabas takām runājam raidījumā Kā labāk dzīvot. Kurp doties, iesaka ceļotāja Alīna Andrušaite, dabas pētnieks, vēsturnieks Andris Grīnbergs un "TravelFree" pārstāvis Edgars Plešs. Latvijā ir gan daudz kur ceļot arī ziemā. Tomēr ziema ir savā ziņā riskantākais laiks ceļojumiem, jo ir salīdzinoši maz gaismas, daudzviet ir slidens. Bet tas nenozīmē, ka jāsēž mājās. Izkustēties noteikti vajag. Galvenais ir saņemties piecelties no dīvāna un doties ārā. Un tad jau iespējās daudz un dažādas tuvākā un tālākā apkārtnē, atliek tik izvēlēties. Gaismiņas var baudīt Ogrē, var vienkārši pastaigāties pa Rīgu, var izvēlēties kādu maršruti Gaujas Nacionālajā parkā, var doties uz Latgales pusi, var staigāt Skrīveru un Aizkraukles apkārtnē. Var braukt uz Kurzemes pusi, izvēlēties, piemēram, Kandavu. Uz Jelgavu var doties tiem, kam patīk pilsētas apceļot. Tiesa, Latvijā jārēķinās, ka daudzviet var nokļūt tikai ar personīgo mašīnu ne sabiedrisko transportu.

Have you been scrolling past everyone's overseas holiday photos and feeling that quiet pang of “we can't afford that right now”?And even if a local getaway sounds doable, you might be thinking about the packing, the nap timing, the feeding stuff, the toddler meltdowns, and wondering if it's even worth the effort.In this episode, Dr Renee White shares practical, mum-tested tips for planning a staycation that actually feels like a break. Not perfect. Not Instagrammable. Just genuinely restorative.Renee walks you through what to pack, what to skip, simple hotel hacks that make life easier, and one money-saving tip that could save your family hundreds on accommodation. Because sometimes the reset you need isn't a week overseas. It's a couple of nights close to home where someone else makes the bed and you don't have to do the dishes.You'll hear about:A simple membership tip that can save hundreds of dollars on accommodationRenee's essential packing list for travelling with babies and toddlers (and what you can leave behind)Easy hotel hacks to make sleep, feeding, and settling smootherHow to plan your days around naps without feeling stuck in the roomThe mindset shift that helps staycations feel enjoyable in this season of motherhoodIf you've been craving a break but feeling like holidays are off the table, this episode will meet you right where you are. You don't need to go far to feel the benefit. You just need a change of scenery, fewer jobs on your plate, and permission to keep it simple.Resources & Links

Stāsta JVLMA profesore, Muzikoloģijas katedras Etnomuzikoloģijas klases vadītāja, Zinātniski pētnieciskā centra vadošā pētniece Anda Beitāne; pārraides producente – Maruta Rubeze Ziemeļlatgalē, precīzāk, Medņevas, Viļakas, Rekovas, Upītes, Baltinavas un Briežuciema apkārtnē par kaladošanu sauc dziesmas, ko dzied ap Ziemassvētkiem. Tām raksturīgo refrēnvārdu "kalado", no kura atvasināts šis apzīmējums vietējā tautas terminoloģijā, dziedātājas nereti saista ar katoļu dievmaizītēm kaladām. Tā, piemēram, šīs tradīcijas mantiniece un nesēja, dziedāšanas meistare un ilggadējā Medņevas etnogrāfiskā ansambļa vadītāja Natālija Smuška man savulaik stāstīja: "Ziemassvētku priekšvakarā taču ēd kaladas. Mums vienmēr tēvs atnesa. Māte uzsedz uz galda galdautiņu un virsū uzliek kaladas. Apēd kaladas, tad jau vakariņas ēd. Tad dziedam Dieva dziesmas, visādas, Ziemassvētku." Uz jautājumu, ko parasti dara Ziemassvētkos, Natālija atbild: "Visu ko. "Čigānos" ejam uz klubu, čigankas zīlē un ko tik nedara!" Viņa atceras, ka agrākos laikos gājušas "čigānos" arī "pa mājām": "Kādreiz staigājām, vai, kā staigājām! Mēs bijām jaunas vēl, nebijām pie vīra gājušas. Vienos kaimiņos iegājām, a tur maizīti no cepļa velk. Tūlīt "čigāniem" pa gabalam atlauza. Cik tā maize garda bija! Sasēdušas pa grīdu, ēdām. Smējāmies: savās mājās nekad tā neēstu sausu maizi. Gājām visur kur. Vienā vietā nelaida iekšā. Ko tagad darīsim? Dēļ kā šie nelaiž, ne tiem mazu bērnu, nekā. Aizspiedām durvis – lai guļ pa dienu, ja viņiem miegs nāk." Medņevā "čigānos" gāja no 25. decembra līdz 6. janvārim – Triju kungu dienai. Natālija Smuška stāsta arī par to, ko "čigāni" vilka mugurā viņas bērnībā un jaunībā: "Kādas nu lupatas bija, ka tik interesantāk – visas mugurā savilktas. Un kažoki – toreiz bij' aitādu kažoki. To jau uz kreiso pusi izgriež, par lāci sataisās, par dzērvi. Manam tēvam vienmēr patika taisīt "čigānus". Agrāk bija tādi lieli grozi, ar ko sienu nesa uz kūti govīm. A te kaimiņos bija viena tāda vecene. Viņa ielīda tajā grozā. Tāda sīka vecene bija, un apsēja to grozu apkārt ar deķi, ietaisīja rokturi, un lūk – šarmanka , proti, leijerkaste. A viņa – tur iekšā dzied." Kaladošana sastopama arī Medņevas kaimiņpagastos. Taču medņevietes to dzied garākā versijā nekā citur. Natālija Smuška to skaidro šādi: "To var pārveidot īsāku un garāku. Tā garā kaladošana, lai ir ko klausīties. Es reiz dzirdēju – Baltinavas ansamblis dziedāja, kaut kas līdzīgs bija. Atbraukusi mājās, domāju, paga, paga, vajag saštukot." Te vietā neliela atkāpe par dziesmu saštukošanu jeb pārmantošanu no kaimiņiem. Kā stāsta Natālija, "kur nobraucam, kaut vienu jaunu dziesmu vedam uz dvoru". Par dvoru Medņevā sauc māju un sētu. Uz manu piebildi, ka nevaru saprast, vai drīkstu visai pasaulei par to stāstīt, viņa atbild: "Bet tā ir. Es nezinu, ko tur sacīt. Tautasdziesmu nevar noslēpt. Tautasdziesma jau iet no mutes mutē – kā sadzird, tā arī dzied." Arī Briežuciema dziedātājas vārda "kalado" nozīmi saista ar katoļu dievmaizītēm kaladām. Broņislava Platniece stāsta, ka "tā bij pieņemts, tās kaladas. Kaladas Ziemassvētkos ēda un tagad ēd, un dziesmas dzied." Interesants ir Broņislavas stāstījums par pašām kaladām: "Mums, katoļu cilvēkiem, baznīcā deva. Svētības zīme bija. Tā arī tagad viņas ir. Nu, ar to tā kaladošana ir. Nu, svētība, maizīte tāda." Taču vēl interesantāka šajā kontekstā ir Felicijas Loginas piebilde, ka kaladas jāēd un kaladošanu jādzied arī tāpēc, ka "zini, kādam lopiņam, kad grūti, vai kad viņš slimo", kas norāda uz saistību ar senākiem maģijas slāņiem. Dziedātājas arī atgādina, ka kaladas jāglabā visu gadu – līdz nākamajiem Ziemassvētkiem. Nu ko, priecīgus Ziemassvētkus! Avoti: Beitāne, Anda. 2018. Notes from Latvia. Multipart Music in the Field.

To post cute pics of your kid, or to not post cute pics of your kid, that is the question. Kee and Kelly dive into the murky waters of kids and social media, sharing their personal takes on whether or not to share their children’s lives online. They discuss everything from setting boundaries and protecting privacy to the rise of mumfluencers who turn their kids into content for likes and followers. It’s a candid chat about where to draw the line between sharing and oversharing and the impact it can have on kids growing up in the digital age.

"Moooaaahhh! Mums ar Joahimu ir nācis pasaulē vēl viens bērns! Arī mammas ir vairākas: Kristīne Jurjāne, Gundega Blumberga, Sanda Rapa un Iveta Mielava!" Šis vētrainais ieraksts Gundara Āboliņa "Facebook" sociālajā kontā liek sarosīties gan tiem, kuri jau zina, ko nozīmē "Moooaaahhh!", gan tiem, kuri neko par to nezina, bet savukārt zina Jaunā Rīgas teātra izrādi "Kritiens augšup". Vācu aktiera Joahima Meierhofa grāmata "Var krist arī augšup" Gundara Āboliņa tulkojumā šoreiz dzīves un teātra nomocīto aktieri Joahimu aizved pie viņa mātes, kuras temps un apgriezieni ir apbrīnojami ik katrā darbībā - vai tā zāles pļaušana, masāža vai kūku cepšana. Joahimam neatliek nekas cits, kā mēģināt noturēties līdzi. Joahima Meierhofa "Var krist arī augšup” izdevusi "Upe tuviem un tāliem".   Raidījumu atbalsta:

Ar ko visvairāk aizraujas vidējais aktīvais latvietis? Vai tā ir skriešana, komandu sporta spēles vai kas eksotiskāks? Jauns pētījums atklāj interesantus faktus par sporta nozīmi un lomu Latvijas sabiedrībā, kā arī to, ar kādiem sporta veidiem nodarbojas iedzīvotāji brīvajā laikā un cik salāgotas ir šīs slodzes. Raidījumā Zināmais nezināmajā ar pētījumu iepazīstina Latvijas Universitātes Medicīnas un dzīvības zinātņu fakultātes asociētā profesore Līga Plakane un Latvijas Universitātes Medicīnas un dzīvības zinātņu fakultātes lektore Zane Šmite. "Nemaz tik slikti nav. Mūsu vēsturiskās tradīcijas sauc mūs iet dabā - mums patīk sēņot, mums patīk makšķerēt. Mums patīk Līgo svētki un citādas lietas dabā, mēs tomēr neesam tupētāji istabā. Ja tādas plānveida aktivitātes, nav tik slikti, bet varētu būt labāk," tā par Latvijas iedzīvotāju kustību un sportošanas ieradumiem min Līga Plakane. "Dati rāda, ka varētu būt labāk. Ir, kas sasniedz visas rekomendācijas, bet būtiski ir, lai tie, kas ir aktīvi, nekļūst mazaktīvāki, kā arī kopumā visi kļūtu aktīvāki," piebilst Zane Šmite. Tie, kas ir fiziski aktīvi, bijuši arī atsaucīgi piedalīties aptaujā un pētījumā. "Pirmais bija noskaidrot, cik cilvēki ir aktīvi, turklāt būtu jāskatās ne tikai sportiskās aktivitātes ārā vai telpās, bet arī sēdēšanas paradumi jāņem vērā. Lai aktivitāte nebūtu pārspīlēti ofensīva, bet lai kustība caurvītu visu dienu, gan darba dienas, gan brīvdienas," vērtē Līga Plakane. "Skriešana dominēja kā populārākais aktivitātes veids gan dāmām, gan kungiem, otrs bija spēka treniņi, pie kam spēka treniņi bija populārāki dāmām nevis kungiem. Trešā abām dzimumu grupām bija riteņbraukšana, tad sekoja krosfits. Iekļāvās arī garas pastaigas. Tas mūs priecēja, jo tā ir pamatvielmaiņu uzturoša aktivitāte, turpina Līga Plakane. "Galvenā atziņa - tautas sportists ir dažāds un sportot var jebkurš," norāda Zane Šmite. -- Bet par sev svarīgu grāmatu stāsta humanitāro zinātņu pētniece Sanita Reinsone.  Viņa izvēlējusies stāstīt par grāmatu "Ādama stāsts". Pētniece to iepazinusi vēl pirms šis stāsts tika izdots grāmatā. Tā ir ar roku rakstīta 19. gadsimta latviešu zemnieka Ādama Purmaļa autobiogrāfija.

Frances Bilbao founded Mums Matter Psychology when her oldest child was just three months old, and now, alongside raising three children her practice has grown into a social enterprise supporting more than 4,000 families each year with over 120 clinicians nationwide. So, as you might've guessed, she's learned a lot of what parents need. And I love hearing from parents that are also psychologists, because they just get it, from both the professional and personal point of view.Here, we hear all about building her business alongside raising children, why we need to take sleep deprivation more seriously (which if you've listened to this show for a while, you'll know is a hill I'd die on), how society is letting down families and why we need to stop gaslighting mums into thinking the struggle comes from within them. This episode is a warm hug, and while you'll still hear Loz and I chat each week, this is the perfect way to finish off our interviews for 2025 before our schedule changes a little next year. But more on that in the new year. For now, let's hear from Frances. —Thanks for listening!

Šviesa architektūroje – daugelį aspektų apimanti tema. Nors dažnai suvokiama kaip techninis sprendimas, šviesa formuoja mūsų kūnišką ir emocinę patirtį mieste ir interjeruose, erdvių nuotaiką, saugumo ir artumo jausmą. Šviesa kuria architektūros ir viso miesto laiką ir ritmą, bet taip pat brėžia ir išryškina socialines skirtis. Apšvietimo taikymas gali būti analizuojamas ir kaip galios bei kontrolės instrumentas: tai skatina kalbėti ir apie šviesos dramaturgiją, kurios formavime dalyvauja architektas, užsakovas ir gyventojai. Architektas Justinas Dūdėnas gilinasi į Saulės vaidmenį architektūroje: kaip galima praplėsti Saulės šviesos ir energijos panaudojimą, mažinant neigiamą poveikį aplinkai? Kaip į šį iššūkį atsako „solarpunk“ ir „pasidaryk pats“ judėjimai? Šios laidos svečias – architektas, Vilniaus dailės akademijos doktorantas Justinas Dūdėnas.Ved. antropologė Jekaterina Lavrinec.

The Victorian government is investigating mothers’ groups and a homeschooling network run by neo-Nazis. Experts say these groups can often end up as patriarchal cults with coercive control. In this episode of The Briefing, Natarsha Belling is joined by far-right researcher Dr Kaz Ross, who explains what’s really fuelling this far-right extremism and why governments need to listen. Headlines: Bruce Lehrmann has lost his latest defamation appeal, Russian President Vladimir Putin has warned that if pushed, Russia is ready for war, and Anika Wells is under fire after revelations that taxpayers footed a massive bill for a New York event promoting Australia’s teen social media ban.

Motherhood is often sold as “natural” and intuitive - but for so many women, it feels overwhelming, confusing and nothing like they expected. In this episode of A Millennial Mind, I sit down with parenting expert Zoe Blaskey to explore the real, science-backed identity shift of motherhood, from hormonal changes and brain remodelling to the emotional load no one prepares us for. We talk about why becoming a mum can feel like a second adolescence, how societal pressure fuels burnout, and why guilt shows up even when we're doing our best. Zoe shares practical tools for setting boundaries, finding yourself again, strengthening your partnership, and making motherhood feel lighter, calmer and more intentional. If you're a mum, planning to be one, or simply curious about the truth behind the transition into motherhood, this conversation will help you feel seen, supported and less alone. Who This Episode Is For ✨ Mums feeling tired, overwhelmed or burnt out Women struggling with the identity shift of motherhood (matrescence) Anyone carrying “good mother” guilt or pressure Parents wanting healthier boundaries and calmer homes People curious about the science behind motherhood What You'll Learn ✨ Why motherhood feels harder than we're told The science of matrescence (your “second adolescence”) How to set boundaries without guilt How to lighten the mental load How to strengthen your partnership after kids Practical ways to enjoy motherhood more of the time 00:00 Introduction to Motherhood Myths 00:08 Guest Introduction and Initial Reactions 00:17 Understanding Mares Essence 00:53 The Neuroscience of Motherhood 01:39 Podcast and Book Journey 03:44 Personal Development and Coaching 04:58 Navigating Motherhood Challenges 06:36 Self-Compassion and Resilience 29:26 Debunking the 'Having It All' Myth 41:26 The Guilt of Self-Care for Moms 42:38 The 'One for Me, One for You' Tool 43:55 Challenging the Selfless Mother Narrative 45:32 The Concept of Minimum Viable Needs 46:17 The Mental Load and Super Mom Myth 47:17 Mother Kind Toolkit: Identifying Pressure Sources 51:10 Navigating Family Expectations and Boundaries 01:08:39 The Value of Caregiving and Shared Responsibilities 01:14:42 The Physiological Changes of Parenthood 01:17:47 Final Thoughts and Self-Compassion

In this episode of Healthy Her, host Amelia Phillips dives into one of the most overlooked challenges facing modern mums: loneliness. You might be surrounded by people, at the school gate, at work, in your community, yet still feel disconnected. A quick scroll through any mums’ Facebook group shows just how many women are feeling the same way. And here’s the truth: deep, meaningful friendships are one of the strongest predictors of long-term health and happiness, yet they’ve never felt harder to build or maintain. To unpack this, Amelia is joined by best friends Di Edwards and Nicola Dale, who met over the back fence on Sydney’s Northern Beaches and later turned their heart-to-heart chats into the hit podcast Over the Back Fence. Together, they explore why so many mums are feeling lonely, what gets in the way of connection, and how to create friendships that truly nourish you. About the guests: Nicola Dale: Is the co-host of the 'Over the Back Fence Podcast,' reaching a global audience with uplifting lifestyle episodes from finance to relationships.

Kāpēc mēs pieņemam lēmumus, kas ir pretrunā ar mūsu labākajām interesēm? Profesors Jurģis Šķilters, Latvijas Universitātes Uztveres un kognitīvo sistēmu laboratorijas vadītājs, parāda realitāti – cilvēks nekad nav pilnībā racionāls. Mēs nezinām visas alternatīvas, esam ārkārtīgi jutīgi pret emocijām, un mūsu lēmumus milisekunžu laikā ietekmē pat tik sīkas lietas kā tas, vai turām rokā siltu vai aukstu dzērienu. Intervijā uzzināsi, kāpēc ilgtermiņa atmiņai nevar uzticēties (tā mūs saudzē, transformējot pieredzi), kā mūs manipulē sociālajos tīklos, izmantojot trīs vienkāršus principus, un kāpēc personība, lai gan daļēji ģenētiska, tomēr mainās dzīves laikā.Sarunā profesors dalās arī praktiskos atklājumos – kā rakstīšana ar roku palīdz labāk mācīties nekā drukāšana ar klaviatūru, kā oža ir tieši saistīta ar mūsu dziļākajām emocijām un atmiņām, un kāpēc telpiskā domāšana ir pamats visām abstraktajām zināšanām - no matemātikas līdz fizikai.Ja tu domā, ka zini, kā darbojas tavs prāts – šī intervija tevi pārsteigs. Un ja tu meklē atbildes, kā kļūt labākam lēmumu pieņēmējam – šeit atradīsi zinātniski pamatotus ieskatus, kurus vari pielietot jau šodien.Ja šī vai kāda cita Cilvēkjaudas saruna tev noderēja vai bija interesanta, uzsauc Cilvēkjaudai virtuālo “kafiju”. Tā tu mums palīdzēsi segt gabaliņu no podkāsta izdevumiem, lai varam to turpināt.Šo epizodi filmējām Power-Up SPACE Rīgas centrā. Te ir viss, kas nepieciešams – moderni aprīkotas studijas un arī daudzpusīgas telpas pasākumiem, kur rīkot apmācības, prezentācijas, filmu vakarus un pat konferences ar skaistu skatu uz Rīgu.

Latvijas autobraucējiem joprojām lielas problēmas sagādā braukšana krēslas stundās. Šajā laikā izraisīto ceļu satiksmes negadījumu skaits turpina pieaugt. Ko pie stūres darām nepareizi laikā, kad visa diena var būt kā nebeidzama krēslas stunda? Raidījumā Kā labāk dzīvot analizē Ceļu satiksmes drošības dienesta satiksmes drošības eksperts Oskars Irbītis un Drošas braukšanas skolas apmācību direktors Edmunds Ozolnieks. Runājot par uzmanības novēršanu pie stūres, Oskars Irbītis min, ka skandināvu speciālisti runā ne tikai par telefoniem, bet traucēt var arī bulciņa, kafija. "Mums ir tādi multidarītāji - vienā rokā glāze, otrā - hamburgers un ar ceļgalu stūrē," bilst Oskars Irbītis. Edmunds Ozolnieks norāda, ka viņš regulāri kursos jautā autovadītājiem, kurš māk ar kājām stūrēt. Reti kurš nepaceļ roku. "Mūsu ikdienas ritms prasa daudz manipulācijas darīt vienlaicīgi, tajā brīdī mēs aizmirstam. Bet kad veic kādu darbību, pilnībā esi novērsies no ceļa, pauze jau neiestājas, tu turpini braukt," vērtē Edmunds Ozolnieks. "Īpaši, ja brauc ārpus pilsētas, kur liela problēma ir dzīvnieki. Alnis jau neizmāks uz ceļa ar karodziņu - hei, es nāku! Un vēl ar atstarotāju. Kad leks, tad leks un skries.  Mēs esam braukšanas sajūtu nolaiduši līdz automātismam, mūsu iekšējais ķermenis strādā kā autopilotā un mums neliekas, ka tas ir kaut kas sarežģīts. Tanī brīdī arī varam daudzas lietas darīt, nepadomājot, ka novēršamies no pamatlietas, no no braukšanas. Tā zaudējam koncentrāciju uz ceļu un iegūstam negadījumus."

Šobrīd dienas garums Latvijā ir nieka septiņas stundas. Tas ir gauži maz. Turpinām septembra raidījumā aizsākto sarunu par to, kā pēc iespējas pilnvērtīgāk izmantot šo cilvēka fiziskai un mentālai veselībai nozīmīgo resursu. Raidījumā Kā labāk dzīvot stāsta gaismas un cirkadiāno ritmu pētniece Baiba Bieļa un gaismas arhitekte Ilze Leduskrasta-Buša. Rīgas ielās sastaptajiem iedzīvotājiem jautājam, kā viņus ietekmē gada tumšākais laiks un kas palīdz justies labāk? "Mums pašiem sev ir jāpavaicā, cik daudz laika pavadām iekštelpas no visa diennakts laika? Ir vairāki pētījumi, kuros konstatēts, ka vidēji iekštelpās pavadām 90% no diennakts. Tas ir milzīgs apjoms. Ja vēl ir izpratne, cik nelielā apjomā mākslīgais apgaismojums spēj pieklibot līdzi tam, ko saulīte dod, būtu jāveidojas vēlmei mainīt savu dzīves veidu mainīt," vērtē Ilze Leduskrasta-Buša.  "Rīta un pusdienas pauzēs vajadzētu būt dabiskai vēlmei iziet ārā nevis turpināt sēdēt telpās." "Jaudīgākais acij izturamais mākslīgais apgaismojums ir desmitkārt vājāks nekā tas apjoms, ko saņemam ārā dabiskajā apgaismojumā. Turklāt mākslīgais apgaismojums ir limitēts un nav pilnā spektrā. Saules un dienas gaisma dod pilnu spektru," turpina Ilze Leduskrasta-Buša. "Tieši tāpēc dienas vidus pauzē izejot ārā 20 minūtes, mēs jau saņemam tik reizes vairāk [pilna spektra gaismas], cik visas dienas garumā nesaņemam pie laba mākslīgā apgaismojuma."

Šogad labdarības maratona "Dod pieci!" vadmotīvs ir palīdzība bērniem un jauniešiem ar neiroloģiskiem kustību traucējumiem. Vienlaikus maratona laikā uzmanība tiks pievērsta arī sabiedrības mazkustīgumam. Kā tikt galā ar šo milzīgo problēmu? Raidījumā Kā labāk dzīvot vērtē Latvijas Radio raidījuma "Digitālās brokastis" vadītājs Artis Ozoliņš, fiziskās izaugsmes treneris Roberts Radičuks un P.Stradiņa klīniskās universitātes slimnīcas Fizikālās medicīnas un rehabilitācijas centra vadītāja Anda Nulle. Par motivāciju kustēties un būt aktīviem vaicājam Esterei, Viktorijai, Natai un Renāram, kurus sastapām kādā Rīgas sporta klubā agrā rīta stundā. Mēģinām atrast labus iemeslus, lai sāktu kustēties. Artis Ozoliņš uzsver drauga lomu, lai pievērstos aktīvākām kustībām. "Ja tev ir kāds, kas pasaka - klau, varbūt izejam pastaigā, varbūt aizejam uz sporta zāli kopā, pēdējos 2-3 mēnešus man ir draugs, kurš tā pateica, šobrīd mums jau ir aktīvi treniņi divreiz nedēļā," atklaj Artis Ozoliņš. "Nav jau tā, ka es pirms tam pats par to neaizdomājos, ka tā būtu laba lieta. Nav jau tā, ka nebiju dzirdējis gudrus cilvēkus, kas saka, ka vajadzētu pavingrināt ķermeni vairāk par skraidīšanu un staigāšanu, bet drauga loma manā gadījumā bija ļoti svarīga, ka ir kāds, kurš saka - klau, atnāc ar mani, parādīšu, ko es daru, varbūt iepatīkas. Tas ir ir jānovērtē. Drauga plecs ir svarīgs." Anda Nulle norāda, ka kustība ir vajadzība arī tiem cilvēkiem, kam ir funkcionēšanas traucējumi, cilvēkiem, kas ir ratiņkrēslos, pārvietojas ar palīglīdzekļiem. "Ja apmēram puse relatīvi veselu cilvēku nodarbojas ar fiziskām aktivitātēm, tad cilvēki ar funkcionāliem traucējumiem tikai ¼ daļa nodarbojas ar fiziskām aktivitātēm kaut cik pieņemamā apjomā," norāda Anda Nulle. "Es vairāk domāju, kā iesaistīt cilvēkus ar funkcionāliem traucējumiem sportā, aktivitātēs, kas dod dzīves jēgu un garšu." "Varbūt, ka vajag ierakstīt likumā, ka visiem ir jākustas. Redzēs, kas no tā sanāks," vērtē Anda Nulle, analizējot Solijas pieredzi. "Noteikti samazināsies darba nespējas lapu daudzums, uzlabosies veselība, mazināsies mirstība un viss, ko mēs ļoti labi zinām, bet ikdienā varbūt par to nedomājam. Ja kāds mums no ārpuses pabaksta, tad mēs vismaz mirklīti kustamies. Jebkurš līdzeklis, kas palīdz kustēties, ir apsveicams, kaut vai tas ir likums." Roberts Radičuks piebilst, ka ir jānovērtē ikdienišķas lietas, kas rada kustību prieku un varbūt notiek nemanāmi. "Kad iešu pārgājienā pa mežu, salasīšu čiekurus, kas ir taktilās izjūtas, ielikšu kabatā, pēc tam pārdomāšu veikto maršrutu, manī veidosies pozitīvās izjūtas. Visi šie komponenti tiek iesaistīti. Daudzas lietas darām, bet nenosaucam vārdos. Mums jānovērtē kāpšana pa kāpnēm, spēja uzkāpt Bastejkalnā bez aizdusas," uzskata Roberts Radičuks.
