In flow, you are so focused on the task at hand that everything else falls...

I go to the sauna once a week, and often twice a week in the winter. I get a huge pile of the magazines or journals I subscribe to, like  ESPN ,  Fast Company , or  Mother Earth News  (and sometimes even grab a book I don't mind destroying) then settle in for a good 30-45 minute sweat session. After about 25 minutes, it get pretty tough as my heart rate and core temperature rapidly rise, and I eve...

This year, popular media has been blowing up the news with reports that hormone replacement therapy like testosterone replacement therapy could cause increased risk of heart attacks.
