Tikal, Guatemala – Tikal, Gvatemala

Myrela

Urbani karakter majanskih gradova bio je predmet dugih i opsežnih rasprava, a Tikal je mjesto koje je pružilo najviše pouzdanih elemenata. Gustina stanovništva bila je vrlo mala, što je bila tipična osobenost majanske urbanizacije, ali, veličina, monumentalnost i broj stanovnika pružili su model na osnovu kojeg je moguće shvatiti dinamiku nastanka i razvoja tog najvažnijeg majanskog grada. Nesumnjivo je glavni trg Motul (“Punđa”), s visokim piramidama koje dominiraju džunglom, bio prostor za održavanje većine državnih i vjerskih dešavanja u životu Maja klasičnog razdoblja. Kraljevi koji su ga izgradili bili su protagonisti vjekovnih saveza i ratova koji su doveli do toga da Tikal zavlada kraljevstvom toliko prostranim i važnim da je bilo bez premca u majanskom svijetu.

Managing Anxiety

CRAIN'S COMMENTS

“The American Psychological Association (APA) defines anxiety as “an emotion characterized by feelings of tension, worried thoughts and physical changes like increased blood pressure.”(1)

When these fear are tension reaches a point of disrupting normal living, then it is referred to as an “anxiety disorder.” In the medical literature, anxiety is often referenced on conjunction with depression and stress.(2)

Frankly, in modern life, some level of anxiety is almost normal. There’s always the potential for an adverse event related to money, job security, health, children or something else that matters to you.

Historically, people have countered anxiety with religion — the belief that if you don’t have control, someone else does and will make things right. The CDC still recommends “connecting with faith-based organizations” as a healthy way to deal with stress.(3)
