Walking Meeting K056 – Carl Duisberg Grab - 30 Min https://maps.app.goo.gl/o6FS5yDz7Ud8SqVq8 Walking Meeting K056 – Japanischer Garten - 60 Min https://maps.app.goo.gl/CrB3h37XeYM391Sh7 Welche Vorteile bieten Walking Meetings? • lockerer Atmosphäre fördert die Kreativität und Leistungsfähigkeit • Bewegung wirkt sich gesundheitsfördernd aus Tipps zur Durchführung • Zwei Personen: Mach dich zu zweit auf den Weg. Bei mehr als zwei Personen bietet es sich an die Gruppe in Zweier-Teams aufzuteilen und die Ergebnisse zum Schluss des Spaziergangs zu sammeln. • Zuhören, Raum für Pausen: Die Vorwärtsbewegung erlaubt auch kurze Pausen, die in einem engen Sitzungszimmer eher unangenehm sind. Draußen aber, lässt man sich einen gehörten Satz nochmals durch den Kopf gehen und entwickelt den Gedanken weiter. Und kommt so gemeinsam auf neue Ideen, die nachhaltig wirken. • Resultate, mitnehmen und notieren: Am Schluss des Walking Meetings unbedingt die wichtigsten Punkte gemeinsam festhalten. Welche drei oder fünf Punkte nehmen wir mit? Was sind konkrete To dos? Und wie bleiben wir dran? Zurück im Büro kurz das Wichtigste notieren.

Valentine's Day, celebrated on February 14th, is a day dedicated to love and affection. Its origins can be traced to both Christian and Roman traditions. The name "Valentine" likely comes from two Christian martyrs named Valentine who lived in the Roman Empire during the 3rd century. One of the legends surrounding Valentine suggests that he defied Emperor Claudius II's ban on marriages for young men, as Claudius believed that single men made better soldiers. Valentine continued to perform marriages in secret and was eventually arrested and executed on a February 14th. Legend says, he sent a love letter to his jailer's daughter, signing it "From your Valentine," which is a phrase still used today. Valentine's Day gained popularity over the centuries. In the Middle Ages, it became associated with romantic love. In the 19th century, the exchange of love notes and cards became a common practice. Today, Valentine's Day is a global occasion. 200+ million roses are grown, 20+ Billion USD are spent, 190+ million Valentine's Day cards are exchanged in the US alone. Piquant: Among people surveyed, 20% of men purchase gifts for multiple partners, while only 6% of women do the same. Today is perfect for quality time with your partner, or, maybe, embracing the opportunity to finally express affection to your secret love. Be Decent, Virtuous and Brave and —ask them to be your Valentine! More: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Valentine%27s_Day Art by Dall-E, text supported by ChatGPT.

National Toothache Day, February 9th, serves as a reminder of the importance of oral health and the discomfort toothaches can bring. Toothaches are primarily caused by dental cavities (caries), which result from tooth decay. Other causes are gum disease, tooth root exposure, cracked teeth, or jaw disorders. Caries have been detected in human fossils, indicating that dental issues have plagued humanity for millennia; oldest manipulation ("treatment") in a human molar in Italy dated 14k years ago. The first recorded reference to toothaches dates to ancient Sumer, around 5000 BC, described as "tooth worms". The main bacteria responsible for toothache are Streptococcus mutans and Lactobacillus (Caries), Actinomyces (Root caries), and Porphyromonas gingivalis (Periodontitis). Caries are much rarer in mammals that don't have a sugar-rich diet, or that have a more basic pH environment in their mouth, like cats and dogs. Dental caries is one of the most common health problems globally, affecting over 2 billion people and half a billion children. To combat toothaches and prevent dental caries, it's essential to maintain good oral hygiene practices: Regular brushing with fluoride toothpaste, flossing, reducing sugar intake, and visiting the dentist for check-ups and cleanings. Fluoride treatments and dental sealants can offer extra protection against cavities. More: https://bit.ly/3uoNdzk https://bit.ly/495PVJl https://bit.ly/48ZV1GS Art&Text supported by ChatGPT.
