Why are kids 9 ? he asked. “Because theyre trying it out. They look at another kid and go. Youre fat. Then they find the kids unhappy, and they think, Ooh, that doesnt feel 10 ” There, theyve experienced empathy. Texting “youre fat” allows you to bypass the pain youve caused.CK went on to explain to us that smartphones rob us of our ability to be 11 Kids use smartphones to 12 y! After all, one of the joys of being human is allowing our minds to 13 . With cell phones, kids are always preoccupied. They never daydream, 14 in class. And heres something else were 15 out on thanks to Steve Jobss little device: our right to be _. This was a right I hadnt realized I desired until CK pointed out that its yet another of the essential human emotions.“Everybodys murdering each other with their cars” as they text, CK screamed, because they fear being alone. Too bad theyre missing out on a life affirming experience.“I was in my car one time, and Bruce Springsteens Jungleland came on,” he said. “And he sounds so far away. It made me really sad. And I think, OK, Ive got to get the phone and write hi to 50 people. I was 16 for the phone, and I thought, Dont! Just be sad.” So CK 17 over and allowed himself to sob like a little girl _that brand-new four-poster bed for her American Girl doll. “It was beautiful. Youre lucky to 18 sad moments,” he said. And because he didnt fight and push it away with that little phone, because he allowed himself to be miserable, his body released endorphins(内啡肽). “And thats why I dont want to get phones for my kids.” CK said.

Experts say the way you design your home could play a role in whether you pack on the pounds or keep them off. You can make your environment work for you instead of against you. Here are some ways to turn your home into part of your diet plan.Open the curtains and turn up the lights. Dark environments are more likely to encourage overeating, for people are often less selfconscious (难为情) when theyre in poorly lit placesand so more likely to eat lots of food. If your home doesnt have enough window light, get more lamps and flood the place with brightness.Mind the colors. Research suggests warm colors fuel our appetites. In one study, people who ate meals in a blue room consumed 33 percent less than those in a yellow or red room. Warm colors like yellow make food appear more appetizing, while cold colors make us feel less hungry. So when its time to repaint, go blue.Dont forget the clockor the radio. People who eat slowly tend to consume about 70 fewer calories (卡路里) per meal than those who rush through their meals. Begin keeping track of the time, and try to make dinner last at least 30 minutes. And while youre at it, actually sit down to eat. If you need some help slowing down, turn on relaxing music
