Simple neuroscience-based hack for anxiety:
🌿go & be in a place with plants & trees for 15 mins
🌳You'll inhale plant oils(phytoncides) from foliage
📉your stress hormone(cortisol) will drop significantly
Many of our brain pathways evolved to motivate us to forage for plants-they're still very active

German does yearning so well. ’Fernweh’, ‘far-sickness’, is the longing for distant places, while ‘Sehnsucht’ is a wistful desire for something intangible. #shoutoutforgerman

👉 Your favourite German word?
👉 That incredible trip to Deutschland?
👉 Your German teacher, aka the best teacher of all time?
Use #ShoutOutForGerman and show everyone what German means to you!

I'm speaking on SQL Server/Azure SQL DB security features at #FabCon at the end of March in Las Vegas.
Use discount code LOPEZ200 to save $200 on registration. Of course, there are workshops and sessions on Microsoft Fabric, but also on SQL Server/Azure SQL DB
Hope to see you there!
