Holistic Medicine

I think writing about holistic medicines will be very interesting. I do not know much about holistic medicines, therefore i think it will be interesting to learn about it.

What the affects of holistic medicines? Who does it help? What kinds of holistic medicines are there?

2. Affects of Stress

I think writing about the phisiological and psychological affects of stress would be a good topic to write about because stress affects many people. I know it can have many devastating affects and would like to learn more about the specific affects it has.

What are the phisiological affects of stress on the body? What are the psychological affects of stress? How does it affect everyday life?

3. Art in Hospitals

I think the affects of art in hospitals would interesting to write about because it shows how the psychological factors connect with the physical factors of someones body. I don't know to much about art in hospitals other than from personal experience. For example, going to shriner's hospital they have bright, colorful paintings and it just makes you smile no matter what you are there for.

What affects does the art in hospitals have on a persons psychological processes? What physical affects does the persons psychological processes have?

"My previous experience with research"

2009-01-21T15:29:00.000-05:00

In my 12th grade english class, we had to write an 8-10 page research paper as part of our final. We had to write about how some social aspect was portrayed through a book of our choice. I wrote about how feminism was portrayed in Pride and Prejudice. I am a little nervous about this class because I am not good with comming up with topics to write about and it has been over a year since I have written a research paper.
