from Life Matters - Full program podcast · host Australian Broadcasting Corporation

A pilot project in the Northern Rivers of New South Wales is trying to demonstrate the value that remains in building materials of houses earmarked for demolition. How much could we save if we put the materials left behind to good use rather than contribute to growing landfill?We now live in a digital first world but if you aren't constantly using technology there's the real likelihood you are being left behind — and when you do have to log on, it's probably a stressful experience. You'll hear about new research into the phenomenon of "technostress" and a program meant to bridge the digital divide.You've probably heard the saying "the body keeps the score", but do you know where it comes from?

And can unexplained physical symptoms actually be a sign of repressed traumatic memories?
