I was aware o the size o Israel on a map, but when you travel to the border with Syria and Lebanon or down to Gaza, you realize how small it really is.

Rep. Dave Reichert (R-8th) on his impressions o his frst visit to Israel. Learn about his visit on page 6.

The dynamic self

Rabbi ben aaRonson Cpitol Hill minynYoure late or a meeting. You pull

into the parking lot, and its entirely ull

except or one illegal spot right near theentrance. I you park there, youll make

it to your meeting on time. I you have to

nd another spot, youll be late.

Tis situation happened to Nobel Lau-

reate and economist Gary Becker. He rea-

soned through the possibilities, conducted

a cost-benet analysis, and made his choice.

Tis incident gave rise to Beckers Simple

Model o Rational Crime, or SMORC

or short. According to SMORC, people

commit crimes because they benet. Tey

examine the likelihood o getting caught,

contrast it with the potential benets or

consequences, and make their choice.

During this time o year we review our

mistakes and ailings. Part o teshuva

repentance is a commitment to avoid

these specic mistakes in the uture. Our

view o decision-making is deeply tied to

this process. Tough SMORC may sound

too robotic to account or the ull range o

human behavior, we oen respond implic-

itly based on this model. We try to incen-

tivize certain behavior, which increases the

likelihood o getting caught (e.g., increased

police patrols) or increases punishments

(increased sentence lengths).

Dan Ariely, an Israeli-American pro-

essor o psychology and behavioral eco-

nomics at Duke University, questioned the

validity o SMORC. He conducted a series

o experiments into the phenomenon o

cheating and dishonesty. In his basic exper-

iment, Ariely had participants complete a

series o dicult matrix math problems.

Tey correctly solved an average o our

problems. He paid participants 50 or each

correct problem. However, when given

the opportunity to sel-report, participants

reported completing an average o six cor-

rect problems, allowing them to collect $3

instead o the $2 they were entitled to.

SMORC predicts that as you increase

the reward and decrease the likelihood o

getting caught, there will be a correspond-

ing increase in cheating. Tis turned out

to be alse. When Ariely increased the

amount paid, as high as $10 per problem,

people actually cheated a little less. All in

all, something besides SMORC seemed to

be driving human behavior.

Ariely proposes an alternate hypothe-

sis to SMORC. He asserts that people are

driven by two competing actors: What a

person wants, and how a person wants to

see him or hersel. Most people see them-

selves as airly good. While people recog-

nize they possess some aults, they gure

they trend overall on the good side. Tis

helps them make certain allowances orless-than-desirable behavior. Tus, some-

one might be willing to udge the number

o problems he or she correctly solved at

50 apiece, but not at $10.

When we view ourselves overall as

good, we are susceptible to what Ariely

calls the udge actor, the degree to

which we are willing to udge the num-

bers while keeping our positive view o

ourselves intact. When we view our-

selves overall as bad, we are susceptible to

another phenomenon, which Ariely calls

the what-the-hell eect. His research

shows that people begin with a little bit o

cheating, but at a certain point, the cheat-

ing increases steeply. People stop kidding

themselves and just cheat as much as they

can, because, What the hell? It doesnt

matter anymore.

Maimonides understood how power-

ul a persons sel-concept can be in dictat-

ing behavior. He writes, A person should

view onesel throughout the year as i he

or she is hal innocent and hal liable, and

so too the whole world, hal innocent and

hal liable. I one perorms a single mis-

deed, one tips the balance or onesel and

the entire world to the side o liable, and

causes destruction or onesel. I one per-

orms a single mitzvah, one tips the bal-

ance or onesel and the entire world to the

side o merit, and causes deliverance and

salvation or onesel and or others (Laws

o eshuva, 3:4).

Based on Ariely, we understand the

pitalls o viewing onesel as completely

righteous or wicked. Tis simplistic view

distorts our sel-concept and our sense o

our own behavior.

But what does it mean to view our-

selves as hal innocent and hal liable,

as i everything hangs in the balance? And

why should we view a single misdeed or

meritorious act as tipping the balance or

onesel and the entire world?

Maimonides instructs us to view our-

selves as developing and in fux, neither

good nor evil. We should view our ate as

undetermined, as i we have not yet been

dened. While the uture is unknown, we

should look at every action as i it could

dene us, tipping the balance o our char-

acter. So, too, the world is neither entirely

good nor entirely evil. It is dynamic and

evolving. We are to act as i our individ-

ual actions dene the world, which indeed

they do.

As one born in Rhodes, I feel I must correct Vic Alhadeffs article (Rhodes: Embracing the

past, Aug. 30). The Spanish Inquisition was in 1492 and the expelled Jews spread along the

Mediterranean on both the north and south coasts, and many who moved eventually to Rhodes

had moved to Italy and Turkey. It was the Turkish leader Suleiman the Great who invited the

Sephardic Jews to move from their adopted countries to Rhodes to encourage trade along the

sea routes Rhodes was situated on.The Turks had conquered the Knights of St. John, who had held the island, and expelled

them before he invited the Sephardim to Rhodes and gave them properties taken from the

knights (much of the old city). So when the Sephardim arrived there, there were no knights on

the island. Vic must be confusing them with the few Romaniot Jews who did live there at the

time of the knights. In all the years from the early 1500s until 1918, Rhodes was a Turkish posses-

sion and the Jews were treated extremely well, and were even allowed to have their own vir-

tual government within the old city. The Italians took over the island after the First World War

in 1918 and initially treated the Jews well, as they were the basis of the economy there. It was

only when Mussolini started to align himself with the Germans that things started to deteriorate.

The JTNews Editor and Publisher recently chided several members of the Jewish com-

munity for questioning the appropriateness of publishing a letter by Linda Frank defending

the Palestinian Authority and its policies toward the Jewish people. In your statement, you

defended publishing Franks letter by citing free speech and criticized some who assert that

the JTNews should not be used as a forum to express such views.

Section 5 of your own Letters Guidelines state:

JTNews seeks views from many perspectives. However, letters that contain obvious fac-

tual inaccuracies, unattributed facts and quotes, unsubstantiated allegations of wrongdo-

ing, insulting comments, or defamatory statements will not be printed. Letters harmful to the

Jewish community, call for the destruction of Israel, or contain hate speech will not be printed.

In July 2013, the JTA News reported that Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas

told Egyptian journalists that no Israelis will remain in a future Palestinian state. Quoting

Reuters, the JTA News stated that Abbas made the statements in Cairo when meeting with the

interim Egyptian President. Abbas stated: In a nal solution, we would not see the presence of

a single Israeli civilian or soldier on our lands.

Any fair and objective person understands Abbass statement to mean that no Jew will be

permitted to live in a future Palestinian state. Considering that tens of thousands of Jews live in

Jerusalem, Judea and Samaria, Linda Frank was factually inaccurate and her letter should not

have been printed under your own Letters Guidelines.

Being welcoming, diverse and open minded does not require our local Jewish community

newspaper publishing letters or articles from those advocating the historic homeland of the

Jewish people Judenrein.

In response to the article by Knate Stahl (Between myself and God, Aug. 16), I found this

article offensive. He seems to know so much of Yom Kippur for someone who totally rejects it

by holding a program to help the needy. Offering free food that has been donated and doing

so on Yom Kippur is an embarrassment to the Jewish community at large. If he were a gentile

doing this on Yom Kippur and it wasnt his own personal holiday, then it is another story. But

being Jewish and not claiming ignorance of the importance of this holiday, but doing an essay

on the holiday and its importance to Jewish life and then personally ignoring it is a slap in the

face to the Jewish community.

Not observing Jewish holidays is not new to Judaism; it has been done for centuries. That in

and of itself is not a reason to write a letter to the editor. What has rankled me and caused me

to open up is the fact that he is doing a program that collects food from a supplier and redis-

tributes it to those who are needy. If Mr. Stahl has made an effort to take orders from those who

are observing Yom Kippur and made provisions to have their orders delivered to these people

on Sunday, after Yom Kippur has ended, then ne, do your thing. But if you are not making an

effort to accommodate those people then you are punishing Jews for observing Yom Kippur,

and that is your sin.

Obama on Syria retaliation: Israel can defenditself, has unshakable U.S. support

JNS.org President Barack Obama said uesday night that i Syria were to attack

Israel as retaliation or an American military strike on Syria, Israel would be able to deend

itsel with overwhelming orce and unshakable U.S. support.

Obama said uesday in a nationally televised address that he has asked the leaders o

Congress to postpone a vote to authorize the use o orce while America pursues a dip-

lomatic solution with Russia, which has proposed a deal involving the transer o Syrian

chemical weapons to international supervision.

Neither [President Bashar] Assad nor his allies have any interest in escalation that

would lead to his demise, Obama said. And our ally Israel can deend itsel with over

whelming orce, as well as the unshakable support o the United States o America.

Obama said that ailing to respond to Syrias use o chemical weapons against civilian

would weaken prohibitions against other weapons o mass destruction and embolde

Assads ally, Iran, which must decide whether to ignore international law by building

nuclear weapon or to take a more peaceul path.

Israeli leaders have reacted to Russias plan which does not include punitive me

sures against Syria or using chemical weapons with skepticism. President Shimon Pere

warned that the Syrians, who welcomed the Russian proposal, have proved they are no

credible and that their integrity should not be trusted.

A different kind of Israel visit for a local Congressman

Judy Lash baLint spcil to JTNwJERUSALEM Congressman Dave

Reichert (R-8th) made his rst visit to

Israel last week, not as part o a ormal

congressional delegation, but with a small

group o rst responders whom he regards

as his peers.Reichert, who spent the majority o his

working lie in law enorcement beore

his election in 2004, spent a week learning

about Israels security operations and meet-

ing Israeli deense personnel in a visit orga-

nized by Proactive Global Security (PGS), a

private security consulting company.

PGS, a recipient o Department o

Homeland Security grants, specializes in

training U.S.-based rst responders in the

latest Israeli security techniques and has

previously provided consulting or Pierce

County and other Washington State secu-

rity personnel.

In promotional materials or the

Reichert trip, PGS stated: Our goal is to

provide critical training in rst response,

and be a partner in establishing the

oundational relationships necessary to

develop a regional response plan, which

includes coordination between the public

and private sector.

Reichert was accompanied by Capt.

Peter Brummel o Eastside Fire and Rescue;

Acting Lt. Erik Allen, Deputy Director

o the Washington State Fusion Center;

Detective im Renihan o the Seattle Police

Department intelligence division; and o-

cers rom Fairax, Va. and Denver, Colo.

Speaking at a dinner in Jerusalem at

the end o the trip, attended by a number

o Israeli opinion makers and a smattering

o Seattle-area immigrants, Reichert said

there was no substitute or seeing Israels

security situation on the ground.

I was aware o the size o Israel on a

map, but when you travel to the border

with Syria and Lebanon or down to Gaza,

you realize how small it really is, he said.

Small and surrounded by enemies.

Reerring to the years he spent solv-

ing the Green River killings, I thought 19

years was a long struggle, Reichert said.But 65 years is a really long time and you

have many more years ahead o you.

People in the U.S. cant understand

how you survive and continue to ght,

he added.

Given Reicherts law-enorcement

background, he said he was most moved

by his meetings with Israeli soldiers, in

particular those stationed a ew hundred

yards rom the border with Gaza.

Tose tank brigade soldiers have an

incredible sense o commitment and pro-

Legislative appointment keeps Jewishcaucus numbers at 9

JoeL MagaLnickeditor, JTNwYou could say she was hand-picked or

the job. When ana Senn was sworn in as

the newest member o the state legislature

on Monday, the moment ollowed a whirl-wind o activity aer Senns predecessor

announced her resignation rom her seat

earlier in the summer.

About six weeks ago, right beore

Marcie Maxwell stepped down about 10

minutes beore she stepped down she

gave me a call and she said, ana, Im taking

a job with the governors oce, and would

love or you to put your name in to replace

me in the legislature, said Senn, 42.

Aer some consultation with her hus-

band and two children, she decided to

throw her hat into the ring.

I looked at my kids and I thought, this

is going to be really hard, she said. I also

looked at them and I thought, I have to

do this, because we need more women and

people with kids in Olympia. I thought it

was really important to do this.

From there came a nomination pro-

cess through the 41st District Democrats

because Maxwell is a Democrat, the

Democratic Party recommends a nom-

inee. Aer Senn rose to the top o that

process, her name was submitted to the

King County Council or a vote. Senn

met with council members last week, and

was sworn in during a council meeting in

downtown Seattle on Sept. 9.

I was very impressed with the local

government experience, and I think that

will be very helpul to all o us in Olym-

pia to have more people who have local

government experience, said council

member Kathy Lambert prior to the vote.

Council member Jane Hague said Senn

served admirably in other civic responsi-bilities and has shone, and I think this is an

obvious next step orward.

Te council voted 8-0, with one member

absent, to appoint Senn to the seat.

anas lielong passion or policy and

experience on the city council will serve

her well in Olympia and allow her to hit

the ground running, said Maxwell in a

statement. Our district is lucky to have

her represent us.

Senns currently sits on Mercer Island City

Council. She plans to keep that seat.

Im very committed to Mercer Island

and Mercer Island City Council, and Im

proud o not having missed any meet-

ings, she said. I realize the time in Olym-

pia might not allow that [to continue].

But, she said, because the upcoming

session is only 60 days, at most I would

miss a couple meetings, I would think.

Senn has also pre-

viously chaired the

government aairs

committee at theJewish Federation o

Greater Seattle and

worked there or two

years as its director

o communications.

Senn said she has three core issues she

wants to ocus on.

A transportation package [is] des-

perately needed or the entire region,

but especially or the 41st, which borders

I-90 and 405 and 167, so thats a critical

issue, she said. Fully unding education,

o course weve got to continue our

work in that direction. And then making

our communities saer, and passing back-

ground checks or gun purchases.

Tough its still our months beore th

next session begins, Senn said shes excit

to get to know her constituency and h

colleagues.

Im really excited to be a part o th

Jewish caucus, Im excited to be a part

the women in Olympia and keeping th

number up, and Im very honored to b

replacing Marcie Maxwell, Senn sai

She was quite an impressive woman an

I know therell be big shoes to ll.

Brothers in food from eastand west

diana bReMent JTNw Colunit

1Ater chatting with

Zach Grashin about

hummus or hal an

hour, I had to go home andmake mysel a batch.

It wasnt Garbanzo Bros.

che David Babanis recipe.

Tat is a top-secret compo-

nent o Garbanzo Bros., the

business Zach and David

ounded last year.

Garbanzo Bros. makes

more than just hummus,

oering prepared kosher

oodin time or Shabbat,

which they deliver on Turs-

days and Fridays and sell at the Stroum

Jewish Community Center on Mercer

Island on uesday aernoons, too.

Born six days apart in dierent states,

these brothers have been riends since

kindergarten and attended Seattle Hebrew

Academy and Northwest Yeshiva High

School together.

Both spent a year aer high school in

Israel, with David on kibbutz, pressing

grapes and bottling olive oil, explains

Zach. David studied at the Jerusalem Culi-

nary Institute then returned to the States,

where he became a partner in Amba, a

vegetarian kosher restaurant in Oakland,

along with other projects in the Bay Area.

David returned to Seattle last year and

worked at RN74 in downtown Seattle,

making hummus on the side, or people in

Seward Park, says Zach. People just loved

it Someone said, You guys should sell it.

Tats morphed into a well-over-ull-

time business or both men.

Im in charge o moving the product,

says Zach. Dave does production.

Depending on the weeks orders, we

can be working 20-hour days, he adds.

Zach, who graduated rom the Univer-

sity o Washington and is currently work-

ing on a masters in screenwriting rom

Goddard, lived in Australia beore return-

ing to Seattle last year. Garbanzo Bros.

started in my amilys house, but has since

moved to an Eastside production acility.

Weve illed a unique niche, says

Zach, delivering everything but the sh

and the meat.

Tey hope to add more wholesale or

bulk business as they look to spread the

beans. Speaking o which, we dont use

canned beans. David employs a unique

and not easy process to cook the beans

that actually takes talent.

Teyve even earned a seal o approval

rom some local Israelis. Israelis usu-

ally disdain hummus outside o Israel

on principle, says Zach, but many here

give the product a thumbs-up, including

some Israeli kids who worked at the J this

summer, who thought it could sell in Israel!

tional video, at gogarbanzo.com.

Late summer veggies give noodles a new look

MichaeL natkin JTNw ColunitCooking pasta by the

absorption method instead o

boiling in a gallon o salted

water may seem scary i you

grew up with noodle ortho-

doxy, but it actually worksgreat and can be a big time

saver. You dont have to wait

or water to boil, and you dont

necessarily have two pots to

clean at the end i you design

your sauce and condiment to

be built in with the pasta.

For this recipe, I toast the

capellini in the oven rst. Tis

is characteristic o how pasta is handled in

Spain, Mexico (where they are called deos),

and the Middle East. I enjoy the additional

browned favors. You can do this while pre-

paring and sauting your vegetables.

Te favor o this dish is quite asser-

tive, with substantial quantities o red

wine, black pepper, smoked paprika and

garlic. It isnt one I would necessarily rec-

ommend or young children or those who

preer milder tastes.

Because we are cooking tomatoes and

zucchini along with the noodles, youll

need less initial liquid than you might

expect. Instead, well have you check along

the way and add more as needed. Also note

that we reserve some o the tomatoes or

garnish. I love to include an

ingredient both resh and raw

in the same dish so we get to

experience the ull range o

its favors.

Peppery Red Wine Capellini

Vegetarian and vegan

1 lb. capellini (angel hair) noodles

3 Tbs. extra virgin olive oil

1/2 large white onion, thinly sliced

6 cloves garlic, minced

1.5 lbs. zucchini, 1/2 dice

1 small bunch asparagus, trimmed

and cut into 1/2 lengths

1.5 cup cherry tomatoes, halved, divided

1 Tbs. smoked paprika (pimenton de la vera)

1 tsp. resh ground black pepper

1/4 tsp. cayenne pepper

2 Tbs. resh oregano leaves

1 tsp. minced resh rosemary

salt to taste

1-1/4 cups red wine (Tempranillo is a nice choice)

lots o minced resh parsley or garnish

Preheat the oven to 375. Break

the capellini into approximately 3

lengths. Toast on a baking sheet,

tossing occasionally with tongs, or

about 12 minutes, until golden brown.

Meanwhile, in a large pot with a lid (at

least 5.5 quarts), heat the olive oil over

a medium ame. Cook the onion and

garlic with a pinch o salt or 5 min-

utes, allowing them only to soten and

grow aromatic, but not burn. Increase

the heat to medium-high and add the

zucchini and another pinch o salt.

Saut, browning until the noodlescome out o the oven.

Add the noodles on top o the zuc-

chini mixture. Put the asparagus and

two-thirds o the cherry tomatoes on

top o that and sprinkle in the smoked

paprika, black pepper, cayenne pep-

per, oregano and rosemary. Pour the

red wine and 1-1/4 cups o water over

the top. Toss as best you can with

tongs, but it will be hard at frst be-

cause the noodles are sti. Return the

heat to medium and cover.

Every 3 minutes, remove the top and

toss. The total cooking time will prob-

ably be about 8-12 minutes. Toward

the end, taste a noodle each time yo

remove the top to see i it is done.

not, and there isnt any moisture le

on the bottom, add a bit more wine o

water (maybe 1/3 cup).

When the noodles are done to you

liking, make any fnal adjustments t

the seasoning and transer to servin

bowls. Garnish with the remaining un

cooked cherry tomatoes and parsley

and another grind o resh black peppe

A walk through the wilderness to walk off the warcatheRine caRMeL spcil to JTNw

For 32 years, my job has been to be

a soldier. Now my job is to get up every

morning and put one oot in ront o

the other until I get to Katahdin, says

my husband, Rob Carmel, when he has

been asked how hiking the Appalachianrail has changed his lie. He is a man o

ew words, a leader in his community o

ormer soldiers, walking o the war like

Earl Shaer did 65 years earlier.

In 1948, Shaer decided he was going

to walk o the war to work out the expe-

riences o World War II. Four months

later he became the rst person to hike

the entire length o the Appalachian rail

rom Georgia to Maine.

Now Rob and a small group o veter-

ans are walking o the experiences rom

their more recent deployments through

Warrior Hike, a non-prot organization

that helps veterans process their experi-

ences by through-hiking the 2,200-mile

trail. Partnering with the Appalachian

rail Conservancy, Warrior Hike created

the Walk O the War program in light

o the psychological, spiritual, and physi-

cal benets o hiking.

Rob, who is using this experience as

a way to transition rom active duty to

retirement, is the oldest o this years War-

rior Hike group, having turned 50 on the

trail in May. Te group started with 14

men and women, our o whom will com-

plete the ull hike.

Rob has been deployed to Soma-

lia, Kuwait, Iraq and Aghanistan in the

eld artillery specialty sometimes being

responsible or thousands o soldiers at atime. Tough he never suered any glar-

ing physical injuries, he has seen riends

and co-workers killed, children blown

up by Iraqi suicide bombers, and he car-

ries guilt or each amily who had a soldier

come home in a box because he sent him

to do a job. I he didnt have PSD, Id be

worried.

While Rob went to Georgia looking

orward to nally not being a leader, his

quiet determination and commitment put

him squarely in that position again.

We all have similar goals, but this hike

isnt or everyone, he says. You have to

commit yoursel completely; there is no

halway i you want to nish.

Rob tries to inspire the others, but is

thankul not to be responsible or their

lives.

rail lie is not so dierent rom real

lie, he says. Some days are sunnier than

others. Sometimes your path is unclear.

We have days that eel like uphill climbs

usually because they are but we help

each other get through it.

he hikers get support rom trail

angels, people who provide or them, give

them rides and places to stay, and some-

times even snacks and water le anony-

mously by the side o the trail. Initially, it

was dicult or Rob to accept the gener-

osity o strangers. He eventually came to

accept and appreciate the trail magic.

Te last day o Robs hike begins and

ends on opposite sides o Mount Katah-

din, the tallest mountain in Maine. Tat

day happens to all on Yom Kippur. Ou

initial thought was that it was extreme

inconvenient that he would be hikin

through the High Holidays. I grumble

about the rustrations o living as a Jew in

Christian world. Dont people understan

the need to be at services?

Ten I realized how impressive th

signicance is or us as Jews. Each yea

opportunity to take stock o our-

selves and the lives we lead, to

note where we have allen short,

and what we can do to improve

ourselves. By beginning the pro-

cess a month beore, we have the

opportunity to proceed delib-

erately, so we view teshuva

repentance as a challenge

rather than an impossibility. obe successul, we must push our-

selves to improve, but we also

must realize our limitations. We

can be aware o the immense

spiritual challenge beore us

while still knowing that the only

way we can even begin to meet

that challenge is to take it one

step at a time.

Like the preparation or the

High Holidays, through-hiking

is a refective practice. Stepping out o

regular patterns allows us to deeply con-

template our lives. We can acknowledge

our strengths and come to terms with

our challenges. Tis refection

allows us to see beyond our-

selves to our relationships, com-

mitments, communities, and

responsibilities. One step at

a time, we begin to see our

connections more clearly.

As Rob travels through

this process, he can come

home with meaningul

insight into how to move

back into our community while taking o

Our bodies: Time to tone and atone

Janis siegeL JTNw ColunitAs the Jewish commu-

nity enters the New Year and

atones or the not-so-nice

acts o thoughtlessness or

unkindness we might have

done to others, it might alsobe a good time to look at what

we do to ourselves.

A growing body o clin-

ical evidence shows that

chronic stress can trigger

genetic predispositions to

lie-threatening diseases and

neurodegenerative condi-

tions like dementia, Alzheim-

ers, and Parkinsons disease.

But spirituality, religious community,

and a connection to others can prevent

and even slow the onset o these condi-

tions, according to research rom Israeli

researcher Dr. Yakir Kauman, the direc-

tor o behavioral neurology at Jerusalems

Sarah Herzog Memorial Hospital.

Chronic stress has been shown to be a

risk actor in heart disease, stroke, cancer,

inection, wound healing, autoimmune

disease, depression, inertility, pain, and

many other disease states, Kauman told

simpletoremember.com, a curated Jewish

online site. I anxiety, sadness, anger, or

dissatisaction persist, these eventually will

take their toll on the immune,

nervous, and hormonal sys-

tems and bring about either

mental or physical disease.

Its not the everyday rus-

trations o lie like trac jamsor annoying neighbors that

cause problems, according to

Kauman, but the deep and

long term negative eects o

an unhappy marriage or the

loss o a loved one that get us

into trouble.

But there is good news i

were willing to make changes.

Kauman said we can take charge o our

emotional health by changing our ocus.

He is buoyed by the words o Rebbe

Nahman o Breslov, the great-grandson o

the ounder o the Chassidic movement,

the Baal Shem ov, that guide his work.

I you believe you can damage then

believe you can mend, quoted Kauman.

Amazingly, the same mind-body mecha-

nism that causes disease can work in the

reverse direction and enhance health.

Kauman specializes in studying the

eects o behavior on mental decline in

the elderly.

In 2007, he studied the spiritual and

religious practices o 70 likely Alzheimers

patients who were showing early signs o

cognitive decline.

Kauman enrolled and monitored

these patients to assess their quality o

lie while documenting their spiritual and

religious practices using a standardizedassessment scale.

Study results showed that those subjects

who experienced more spirituality and pri-

vate religious practices accounted or a 17

percent slower rate o mental decline.

Physical and mental disease can be

prevented, said Kauman. he most

proound way to reduce stress is through

changing our state o mind.

Kaumans model, called psychoneu-

roimmunology, or PNI, details the reac-

tions within our bodies brought on by our

behavior.

In our everyday non-stressed lives, our

actions signal the brain to communicate

with the nervous system. Our nervous

system then communicates with the

immune and hormone systems. In this

scenario, the bodys responses are within

normal ranges and are equal to the situa-

tion.

But when were extraordinarily

stressed, our behavior signals the hor-

monal and autonomic nervous systems

directly, and bypassing the brain. Our

bodies then bathe our organs in cortis

excreted rom the endocrine system, an

adrenaline sent out rom the autonom

nervous system. Te body produces the

two potent stress hormones or short-ter

situational help to withstand the stress.Tese two hormones can penetrate th

DNA within the nucleus o our cells, sa

Kauman, and can change their origin

programming, possibly causing them

express a trait or disease.

Te hormones also weaken the immun

system and expose us to diseases we mig

not otherwise be vulnerable to.

Various studies indicate that stre

events or a breakdown o psychologic

deenses are related to the onset o alle

gic, autoimmune, inectious, neoplasti

gastrointestinal, cardiovascular, and oth

illnesses, said Kauman.

Other studies tie stress with hea

attacks, stroke, cancer, hypertension, di

betes, arthritis, inertility, depressio

obesity, and many more problems, h

continued, Te rst three illnesses liste

above are the main cause o morbidity an

mortality in Western societies today. T
