More Frequent Periods At Age 40 LESSONS OF CHAOS

. The first lesson highlights the nature of creativity. Chaos is nature's creativity and Each of us Are creative beings. Creativity is Not limited to few "gifted" individuals inherit Within But is all of us. But Nature is chaotic Within the chaos, systems of self-organization to create ordered form vortexes. This self-organization Occurs When a random fluctuation Becomes amplified by Creating a feedback loop That links with Other feedback loops emerge Until an ordered system. This is the bifurcation point-the Moment When the feedback loops interconnect and transformation occurs. There Are two types of feedback Called negative feedback and positive feedback. Negative feedback and Regulates Damps activity while positive feedback amplifier activity. Society is a system of organizationnature Occurs When we look at the world around us from Different Perspectives. These new perspectives help us to escape from the confines of ordered Society and put us in touch with the truth of the moment.

2. The authors Give Several examples of creativity and chaos at work in nature, as well as in Society. The first piece of Evidence Presented is a model of thermodynamics. When water is heated, the hot water at the bottom of the bread rises and the cooler water at the top sinks to the bottom. The rising and falling create chaos Within the bread Until form feedback loops and feedback loops interconnect with Other Until stable hexagonal cells form a honeycomb-like pattern. Another Piece of Evidence Can Be seen in the Behavior of a flock of birds. As They take off, chaos ensues as they jockey for position. They are driven by the desire to be part of the group while simultaneously trying to avoid collision. This causes a feedback loop of attraction and repulsion. The result is a transformation into a flock that appears to be a single organism. Weather patterns self-organize into hurricanes and interstellar gases self-organize into galexies and star systems. Human society is also a self-organized system. The authors refer to certain human behaviors as evidence. Our obsession with control and power, the desire to remain within comfort zones, the pursuit of repetitive actions and pleasures, and restricting ourselves to what others think of us are just a few examples of self-organization. When we let go of these restrictions and get in touch with creativity, we become aware of new perspectives and larger degrees of freedom that can eventually lead to a bifurcation point and transformation into a new self-organized system.

3. This lesson is helpful in understanding that creativity is not limited to only a few and that I am a creative being. It also helps me to understand that the systems of organization in my life are not as rigid as the appear. All I need to do in order to break free of a restrictive pattern is to get in touch with my own creativity. When confronted with challenges and frustrating repetition, I can look for a new perspective and gain a deeper understanding and ultimate truth of the moment. I can use this lesson to help me to quit smoking. By realizing this it is a mechanical habit that keeps me locked in the pattern
