Wist u dat regelmatige stress kan leiden tot het structurele minder effectief ademhalen?
Een ontspannen en natuurlijke ademhaling is bij ieder mens in aanleg aanwezig, maar kan verstoord raken door fysieke, psychische of sociale problemen.
Hierdoor ontstaat een ontregelde zuurgraad van het bloed. Dit kan mogelijke klachten van de spieren, hart en vaatstelsel, luchtwegen en maag -darmstelsel veroorzaken.  Allerlei vage lichamelijke klachten of wel psychosomatische klachten ontstaan zoals prikkelbaarheid, slaap problemen, misselijkheid, trillen en lusteloosheidklachten, die aanleiding kunnen zijn om met de ademtherapie/training te beginnen. Voor het volledige overzicht, zie de symptomenlijst.

Tip 1

Write for your audience

What are they interested in, what solves their problem, meets their need or achieves an aspiration for them? If you can show your audience how your presentation will make life easier or better for them or is just frankly fascinating, then you are more likely to persuade them to listen.

Tip 2

Use emotionally resonant language

Saying you are honest and reliable doesn’t have quite the same ring to it as saying you will never lie to them and never let them down. Emotionally resonant language appeals to people who make decisions based on their values and is simply more interesting to listen to. Emotionally resonant language includes words such as: love, breathtaking, fantastic, courage, honour, grace. These words affect us beyond their rational impact, but use them carefully – if you can’t say them with conviction, don’t.

Tip 3

Get HELP© with the content

To ensure your presentation appeals to all personality types, use our easy to remember mnemonic: HELP©. H is for hard facts, these appeal to all the linear logic types. E is for explore – explore the big picture and future possibilities to appeal to all the lateral thinkers. L is for logic – give your audience a logical reason to listen to you, what is your business case or rationale for your idea. Finally, P is for people – what are the human consequences of your idea, what are your values, what matters to you and how will it feel to do business with you. People will tune into what they need and ignore the rest, but you won’t leave your audience missing the part of the message most valuable to them.

Tip 4

People do judge books by their cover

And wine by the label, so dress and act the part. If you look the way people expect then you can focus on getting your point across, not spending time convincing them of your credibility – a chief executive in flip flops will always raise eyebrows. Dress for the reputation you want, with a little signature style to give a sense of who you are without distracting from your message. Also, remember the basics: rehearse your presentation, don’t walk in front of the light beam and know the transitions on your slides – you want to give the impression of sophisticated, effortless professionalism not bumbling amateur.

Tip 5

Think positively

Most people get nervous making presentations, particularly when the stakes are high. Try to focus on what you want to achieve: imagine yourself walking off the stage or out of the room having delivered a fantastic presentation. Imagine how amazing you will feel, how proud, the smile you will have on your face. Focusing on positive outcomes not avoiding negatives is key. Don’t tell yourself not to be nervous because being nervous is then all you are thinking about!

About

Apps for Good is an acclaimed education movement where young people in schools learn to create apps that can change their world. Apps for Good has grown significantly and now has nearly 100 schools delivering courses to more than 5,000 students aged 11 to 18.

CDI Apps for Good is supported by Dell Powering the Possible and works closely with technology entrepreneurs, designers, developers and tech industry partners, including BlackBerry, Nominet Trust, Thomson Reuters, Barclaycard, Omidyar Network, Nesta and Facebook.

History

• During April- June 2010, CDI Apps for Good successfully ran the first pilot course with 9 unemployed young people aged 16-25 at High Trees Development Trust in South London.
• In September 2010, an Apps for Good course for secondary schools launched at theCentral Foundation Girls School in Tower Hamlets, East London.
• In September 2011 Apps for Good launched in more than 50 schools across England.
• In September 2012 Apps for Good launched in almost 100 schools in England and Scotland.

Vision

Apps for Good aims to:

• Ignite a passion for technology and social enterprise in young people in the UK
• Encourage young people to use technology to tackle problems for social good
• Increase the entrepreneurial skills and confidence of young people
• Bridge the gap between young people and the business networks and knowledge that can help them
• Build a connected world of young people, business volunteers and educators, inspiring each other to solve problems and succeed through the wonders of mobile technology

During the Apps for Good course, students go through a kind of entrepreneurial process whereby they identify what is wrong with their world before designing a way of fixing it with a mobile app. We combine a broad range of areas in the course, giving young people a foundation in entrepreneurship, community involvement, problem-solving and team work, as well as design and some technical skills.  Learn more about the course

Apps for Good develops talented and employable young people in an industry with plenty of room for creativity, prosperity and employment.

What makes us different

• We do not set agendas or themes but use radical bottom-up innovation processes to allow young people to come up with the issues they worry about in their lives and in theircommunities
• The Apps for Good approach goes beyond simple, basic training, and no journey through Apps for Good is the same for any individual. Student ownership of both issue and solution is what makes a lasting difference
• The course style and structure follows a peer-to-peer, problem-centred learning model inspired by the work of the influential Brazilian educator Paulo Freire.  This learning model is at the heart of all CDI programmes across the network.

The mobile industry is working hard to create mobile apps and sites that relate to what’s on TV, in order to capitalize on this behavior.

This approach is often referred to as the “second screen,” the idea being that the tablet or smartphone becomes a TV companion device, allowing for added levels of interactivity— whether on social networks or dedicated second screen apps and sites that complement on-air content.

In a recent report from BI Intelligence, we examine how second screen apps, social networks, and mobile sites will ultimately succeed in drawing significant audiences, analyze how they will begin to see some advertising dollars, look at who second screen audiences are, explore the second screen opportunity from the broadcaster angle, and detail the opportunity represented by audience analytics and second screen commerce.
Here’s why the second screen industry will ultimately succeed:

• Usage is growing rapidly: 85% of smartphone users reported second screen-linked behavior at least once a month, over 60% reported doing it on a weekly basis, and 39% did so daily. Over 80% of 18- to 24-year-olds told Pew they used their phone while watching TV, and 60% of Americans with annual incomes above $50,000 use their phones while watching TV.
• And mass acceptance isn’t even necessary: All that matters is that a significant minority of viewers develop this habit (especially if they are highly engaged viewers). In the U.S. alone, TV ad spending was $18.4 billion in the third quarter of last year, a $74 billion annual run rate. If mobile can carve out even a small share of that pile of dollars via second screen channels, it would boost the mobile industry tremendously.
• Second screen isn’t really a new activity: It’s a natural update to the old ways of engaging with TV, like the old office water cooler conversations about last night’s football game or popular TV drama. Moreover, second screen-type behaviors were already popular on desktops and laptops, before mobile came along and made it a lot easier to participate.
• Second screen apps and sites are bridges: They bring together the powerful but increasingly fragmented world of television media, and the fast-growing but still undeveloped digital realm. For TV-centric advertisers and content producers, second screen provides a channel through which to test out digital strategies while still remaining tied to familiar territory.

Application structure

Navigation

Choose a navigation structure based on the most important features in your app and the type of content that the application provides. Give users quick access to the most frequent tasks and don’t overwhelm them with content or tasks that are less important. Determine which of the following approaches work the best for your app.

Tabs

Tabs allow you to structure content so that users can move easily between content of relatively equal importance.

Use when

You have distinct sections of content of relatively equal importance. Tabs are always fixed along the bottom of the screen in an action bar.

Examples

A clock might include tabs for a world clock, alarm, timer, and stopwatch.

A music app might include tabs for artists, albums, songs, and playlists.

A tab menu (sidebar) is a vertically stacked, scrollable list of tabs. You can use a tab menu to hold less frequently accessed tabs, or you can use it instead of tabs along the bottom of the screen. When users tap the button for the tab menu at the bottom of the screen, the tab menu slides in from the left and appears to the left of the main view.

Best practices

Place the most frequently used tab in the middle tab position. This is the easiest place for users to target.

Include tabs on the first level of an app hierarchy only.

When users tap a tab, display the content at the top of the screen. If users tap an item in a tab (for example, a list item), include a Back button so that users can navigate to the first level in the hierarchy. Don’t use Back to move between tabs.

Use up to four tabs in an action bar.Include additional tabs in a tab menu.

In a tab menu, place the most frequently used tabs at the top. Place any tabs in the first level of the hierarchy at the top of the list.

 

Drill-down

Drill downs let you structure content in a hierarchy and show selected parts of the content at each level.

Use when

Use drill-downs when you have lots of structured, hierarchical content.

A drill-down approach is common when you use lists for content. The list item shows a small amount of the content the item has. When users click the item, it opens and shows more information.

Example

A photo app might have vacation photos grouped into different trips. You couldn’t present all of the photos on the first level, so users would click an album to see that trip’s photos. At the second level, you might present the photos from that trip as thumbnails. Clicking one of the photos opens it in full screen, as the third level in the hierarchy.

Best practice

Include a Back button in an action barat the bottom of the screen so that users can navigate the hierarchy.

Tab and drill-down

Allows you to combine the two approaches. Use tabs only at the first level of an app, then let users drill down into the content.

Example

A music app can have tabs for different genres. Users can tap a playlist to see a list of songs.

Custom

Make sure that a custom approach provides a better experience than the approaches listed above. You should test the model thoroughly and refine it so that it’s easy for users to learn.

Example

In a map, all information (such as points of interest and directions) appears directly on the map.

Back behavior

If your application uses drill-down navigation, the content is structured in a hierarchy. Back behavior lets users move back easily through the hierarchy.

When users move back in a BlackBerry app, the movement is hierarchical. This means that moving back takes users to the previous level in the app hierarchy. It doesn’t necessarily take them back through each screen that they viewed earlier in the app.

Use when

You create the second or deeper levels in an app hierarchy. Make sure the Back button appears in the far left position in an action bar.

The Back button can contain an icon and the title of the screen or tab that users would navigate back to. If the context is clear, you can use the title “Back” instead.

Examples

Users can move back in three ways:

• Tap the Back button
• Swipe their finger to the right on the content area
• Touch the Back button and drag their finger to the right to peek at the previous level.

Best practices

Don’t put a Back button (or any other button) on the screen as a way for users to close an app. The only way for users to leave an app is by swiping up from the bottom of the screen.

In most cases, save automatically when users move back to the previous screen. Read more about saving.

If you combine tabs and drill-downs, make sure that back navigates within one tab only.
