"Why Exercise Balls Are The Wonder Exercise Equipment"Written by Paul Johnson
Exercise balls are latest invention in exercise equipments. These balls catch every one's fancy because of their shape and attractive colors. However, real benefit of exercise balls, introduced by a group of Swiss medical therapists, is as a substitute of support during exercise. An Exercise Ball is good for all exercise groups such as core stability, rehabilitation exercises and cardiovascular workouts. Workouts with balls strengthen and tone all major muscles in body. The soft texture of ball makes it an ideal choice for Yoga positions, using dumbbells for muscle toning, or working on heavy-duty weight training equipment. The advantage of Exercise balls is that they are durable and maintains its shape under pressure. The documentation with ball provides test load figures for how much weight exercise ball will hold. The advantage of exercise balls is, they provide soft yet firm support that does not harm your body. Exercise balls come in various colors and finishes. You can get a ball matching your room's texture. They are simple to store and you can even roll them under your bed or table. While you are not exercising with your ball, you can use it for playing with kids. Soft and big balls will not do any harm to kids. The ball game will provide extra exercise indirectly.

In “Evidence for Sixth Sense”, Hazel Courteney interviews an American scientist, Gary Schwartz, regarding nature of energy and its relationship with physical world. He explains three worldviews; one, that matter produces energy, it is a side effect of physical world. For example, sun is a physical object, and it produces energy in form of light. The second theory was put forward by Einstein, theorises that energy and matter are both sides of same coin, neither of them being before other. Energy can create matter and matter can create energy. Regarding this theory, Teilhard de Chardin (1881-1955), a French Catholic Priest and Philosopher, theorised that matter is outward manifestation and conscious energy is inward manifestation of world. This implies that everything is conscious regardless of how basic or apparently ‘lifeless’ it is.The new, third theory, put forward by quantum physics, is that what is primary is energy, and what we call matter is actually organised energy. Matter is a dense form of energy, and emotions, thoughts and spirit realm are made of increasingly less dense and faster vibrating forms of energy. We understand that atoms are fundamental units of matter, being made of a central nucleus of protons and neutrons, and surrounded by circulating electrons. These atoms are only seen by using a very powerful microscope, and can only be seen by physical eye when in a mass lump containing many millions or billions of atoms. These atoms create appearance of a physical object when they are organised and come together. The Scottish philosopher David Hume (1711-76) spoke about organised matter; he said that a table is a table because atoms are working together to keep it there. If atoms decided to vibrate in same direction table would lift off of ground, or if they vibrated in opposite directions, they would cause table to split and ‘vanish’. So, atoms are vibrating particles of minute size. In terms of relative size within atom, you could think of a single atom being size of Empire State Building. Given that atom is this size, its nucleus would actually be size of a grain of sand, however this is where most mass is (mass being matter). Putting this in terms of ‘real’ size of atom, we can see that this is an amazing ratio. 99% of an atom is therefore ‘empty’ space between nucleus and surrounding electrons.
