As many of you may know by now, I have a couple of medical theories that I have been trying to share with other people for some time now. I think you are all aware of my theory of a medicine to combat violence (although I think it may have been close to 20 years when I first shared it with you). So I will share another theory that I have been submitting to various people. Please read:

> [@](#):
>
> I have this theory of my own, that I have had for some time now. I call it “circasepian rhythms” (more on how I named it later).
> 
> Anyways, my theory is based partly on the idea of circadian rhythms–but with a unique twist. A cultural twist, in fact.

> It just seems to me, that there are some important innate human rhythms, that are not based on seasonal or already establish biological patterns, but ones that are unique to each culture. Somehow, it seems to me, your body detects these cultural rhythms, and then incorporates it into your body.
> 
> This is esp. true, I have found, with the weekly schedule and rhythm, in western culture. I know I have heard many people say, that although it is a weekend, it just doesn’t “feel” like a weekend for some reason (typically a change in schedule).
> 
> That actually is where I got the name. I looked up “week” in my classical Latin dictionary. And the classical name, at least, was “septem dies”. Septem Dies is rather long. So I just shortened it to “circasepian”.
> 
> So what do you think about my biological theory?

> P.S. And if you are not interested in my theory, feel free to share it with others. You may not be interested in my theory. But you might know someone who is☺.

I don’t know how the rules of these boards would cover it. But if anyone of you knows someone who would be interested in this theory, please let them know. Or if the rules don’t allow for that, forget I just said that. (I honestly don’t know what the problem would be though:). I am not trying to push or sell anything.)

And as long as I am sharing it with all of you, feel free to critique it.

BTW I wanted to share the thread I did on SDMB about my theory on violence (for completeness sake:)). But I couldn’t find it in my records. So [here](http://forums.randi.org/showthread.php?t=212111) is the same discussion, on another boards. (As I said, I think I discussed it here about 20 years ago.)

Thank you in advance for your kindly replies.
