The Deepest Well: Healing the Long-Term Effects of Childhood Adversity

BUT we can help. I was worried that Dr. Harris's "prescription" would be out of bounds for me. I mean I'm not able to set up a clinic with the type of care the Center for Youth Wellness, but I finished the book feeling like I could contribute to the welfare of people in my community who struggle because of toxic stress. After Italy’s oil and gas company Eni announced that its new Agogo exploration in Angola has already reached 10,000 bpd as of January 2020, and with Total among the county’s biggest foreign explorers, the country has seen some revival in the beginning of 2020. I really don't know what this is. I expected science, if not a history of the ACEs studies (there were hundreds of them after the most famous Kaiser-CDC one), then at least an objective and factual synthesis of the pertinent data and some insight into how that data might be used to create public policy or improve healthcare. This book is...memoir? There's barely a sentence in the first 30% that doesn't contain the words I, me, my, mine . A third of the way into the book, and she's just now mentioning the Kaiser-CDC studies and expressing surprise that she didn't know about them. Up to now, she's been talking about herself, her clinic, her past, her clinic's wallpaper, and teasing this surprise connection between her patient's health and environment sound like it's some major epiphany that only she has ever had.

The Woodingdean Water Well is the deepest hand-dug well in the world, at 390 metres (1,280ft) deep. It was dug to provide water for a workhouse. [1] [2] Work on the well started in 1858, and was finished four years later, on 16 March 1862. It is located just outside the Nuffield Hospital in Woodingdean, in Brighton and Hove, England, United Kingdom. [3] In popular culture [ edit ] Do you want to share this book with your reading group?

Crustal seismic reflection profiling through the Kola superdeep well, Russia (video) – via YouTube. I read this to help a friend of mine prep a course for PNP students. Here are some of the reflective questions that I came up with for discussion:The Xinjiang region, in particular, is known to be rich in mineral deposits and oil. Only last month, Sinopec, China’s largest refining company, found sizable oil and gas flows in an exploration well in the Tarim basin at a depth of more than 8,500 metres below the surface. Two thirds of us have experienced at least one adverse childhood experience, from the likes of bereavement and divorce to abuse and neglect. In The Deepest Well Dr Burke Harris reveals the science behind childhood adversity and offers a new way of understanding the adverse events that affect us throughout our lifetime. Based on her own groundbreaking clinical work and public leadership, Dr Burke Harris shows us how we can disrupt this cycle through interventions that help retrain the brain and body, foster resilience, and help children, families, and adults live healthier, happier lives. David Bornstein, New York Times A heart-breaking, world-shaking, revolutionary book. The Deepest Well uncovers offers a new set of tools, based in science, that can help each of us heal ourselves, our children, and our world. Dr. Nadine Burke Harris, currently the first surgeon general of CA and the author, is brilliant in how she has organized this book. There are lots of stories to draw us in and make us want to read more, but she also explains the scientific research and the science in a reader-friendly way. The driving narrative is the growth in her own understanding of this issue and her pursuit of bringing this information to the world.

The project is part of the country’s efforts to explore new frontiers in space and below the Earth’s surface. In 2021, the Chinese president urged the country’s leading scientists to break new barriers in different areas, including deep Earth exploration.The impact this can have on health (and other areas) in adult life is frightening. Contradicting Nietzsche ("What doesn't kill you, makes you stronger"), in the case of ACE, they may not immediately kill you, but make the individual physically weak by damaging health in the lon This is the Kola Superdeep Borehole, the deepest manmade hole on Earth and deepest artificial point on Earth. The 40,230ft-deep (12.2km) construction is so deep that locals swear you can hear the screams of souls tortured in hell. It took the Soviets almost 20 years to drill this far, but the drill bit was still only about one-third of the way through the crust to the Earth’s mantle when the project came grinding to a halt in the chaos of post-Soviet Russia. During the drilling process, unexpectedly no basaltic layers were found at seven kilometers down or at any depth in the borehole. [11] Prior to that, geological information about the earth's crust was mostly based on analyzing seismic waves that indicated discontinuity. [11] Scientific models had previously suggested basalt should be seen. Instead, the actual geological evidence from the borehole revealed there were more granites, and at much greater depths than scientists had considered. [11] It was then thought by scientists that seismic discontinuity was caused by granite metamorphosis instead of basalts. [11] In addition to this, water was unexpectedly found at three to six kilometers deep. [11] Water was not naturally vaporizing at any depth in the borehole. [12] Instead, water was found at these greater depths. [13] Scientific models previously had not predicted water to be found at such great depths. [14] It was discovered that deep granites can be fractured and receive water this deep. [15] As a result of these findings, many scientists now theorize that aquifers of water can be found at much greater depths than older scientific models had previously thought possible.
