<p>The new indictment against Niels Hoegel was expected after officials said in November that he may have killed more than 100 patients in total. He worked at a clinic in Oldenburg from 1999 to 2002 and in nearby Delmenhorst from 2003 to 2005.</p>
<p>Hoegel was convicted in 2015 of two murders and two attempted murders in Delmenhorst and was given a life sentence.</p>
<p>During his trial, Hoegel had said he intentionally brought about cardiac crises in about 90 patients in Delmenhorst because he enjoyed the feeling of being able to resuscitate them. He later told investigators that he also killed patients in Oldenburg.</p>
<p>Those statements prompted investigators to carry out toxicological examinations on dozens of other patients who died at the hospitals, leading to the new charges.</p>
<p>It wasn’t immediately clear when a new trial at the state court in Oldenburg might start. Additional convictions could affect Hoegel’s possibility of parole, but there are no consecutive sentences in Germany. In general, people serving life sentences are considered for parole after 15 years.</p>
<p>Of the new cases, 62 involve patients who died in Delmenhorst and 35 patients in Oldenburg. Prosecutor Martin Koziolek said that, in three further cases investigators viewed as suspicious, tests didn’t produce enough evidence to add them to the charge sheet.</p>
<p>Hoegel used a variety of drugs in his resuscitation attempts, Koziolek said. He added that prosecutors believe Hoegel “in all cases at least accepted the death of the patients as a result of the effect of the drugs.”</p>
<p>As part of a wider investigation involving both hospitals, police and prosecutors reviewed more than 500 patient files and hundreds more hospital records. They also exhumed 134 bodies from 67 cemeteries, and questioned Hoegel six times.</p>
<p>Police have said if local health officials hadn’t hesitated in alerting authorities, Hoegel could have been stopped earlier.</p>
<p>Authorities are already pursuing criminal cases against former staff at the medical facilities.</p>

<p>Self care is all about taking care of your mind and body, so you feel less stress and more joy. Considering the hectic pace of the work world, most of us could benefit from more self-care during the workday—to crank up productivity, form stronger relationships with coworkers, and ace performance, says psychotherapist Suzie DeVaughn, owner of Self-Care Specialists in Wichita, Kansas.</p>
<p>If you already have a self-care routine at home or at the gym, then you know how it can make you feel happier and more in tune with yourself and your needs. So try incorporating these expert-backed easy moves into your workday as well. They’ll help you shake off motivation killers like anxiety and <a href="http://www.health.com/stress">stress</a> and give you the tools to thrive from nine to five.</p>
<p><strong>RELATED: <a href="http://www.health.com/mind-body/best-self-care-apps">If You Struggle to Find Time for Self-Care, These Clever Apps Can</a></strong> <strong><a href="http://www.health.com/mind-body/best-self-care-apps">Help</a></strong></p>
<h3><b>Nourish yourself at lunch</b></h3>
<p>With breakfast the most important meal of the day and dinner a time for reconnecting with loved ones, lunch tends to get short shrift. (They don’t call it a sad desk salad for nothing, right?) Instead of wolfing down another on-the-fly veggie bowl or sandwich, make your midday meal more of an opportunity for nourishment. <a href="http://www.health.com/nutrition/bring-lunch-work">Pack</a> or order foods you love that offer energizing protein and complex carbs, which can put you in a brighter mood and help you power through the afternoon. </p>
<h3><b>Check out a #funny site</b></h3>
<p>Chase away stress by scrolling through the latest adorable animal viral video at @cutepetclub or watching a <em>Saturday Night Live</em> clip on YouTube you missed over the weekend. Laughing can prompt the release of the feel-good hormones endorphins and in turn make you feel more relaxed and revived. Even a few minutes in the break room with a coworker whose stories always crack you up will do the trick. </p>
<h3><b>Get up, stretch, and move</b></h3>
<p>Stretch your arms and legs at your desk, do laps around the office, walk up and down the stairs, or take on some other activity that allows you to move your body. “When we start to feel our body signaling that we need a break, stepping out of your workspace for 5 to 10 minutes can help shift perspective and gain mental clarity,” says DeVaughn. “Running quick errands, going to make coffee or tea, or visiting with a co-worker are very helpful for rejuvenation.”</p>
<p>If you can get outside at some point during your workday, go for it: A 2017 <a href="http://www.health.com/stress/why-nature-sounds-are-relaxing">study</a> echoed previous research, finding that exposure to sounds found in nature has a soothing effect on the heart and brain.</p>
<h3><b>Calm yourself with essential oils</b></h3>
<p>Lavender, wild orange, and bergamot therapeutic-grade essential oils can relax and uplift you, says Krista-Lynn Landolfi, life coach and self-care specialist. Hiding a small stash of these in your desk drawer and occasionally dousing some on a cotton ball you can sniff will help revive your spirits without disturbing others sitting next to you. (But ask your deskmates if they have a hypersensitivity or allergy to these oils before you use them, just in case.)</p>
<h3><strong>Declutter and decorate </strong></h3>
<p>A messy environment can intensify the tension and anxiety you already feel, says DeVaughn. No need to be a super organized neat freak if that’s not your natural style. And yep, today’s open-concept workplaces don’t give even high-up employees much room to personalize. But take some time every week to organize your workspace and decorate it with family or pet photos, artwork that resonates with you, or quotes that inspire you. </p>

<h3><b>Snack smartly</b></h3>
<p>Vending machine runs are convenient, but you know that diet soda and sweet treats aren’t exactly the best snack choices when you’re racing against a deadline or feeling overwhelmed by a report. “When people are filling themselves with caffeine and sugar, it’s going to give them a frenetic energy and create an ultimate crash,” explains Landolfi. Avoid that by opting for high protein nuts, filling air-popped popcorn, or a healthy smoothie.</p>

<h3 cke-list-id="0" cke-list-level="1"><strong>Repeat an inspiring mantra</strong></h3>
<p>The way we talk to ourselves shapes our performance and attitude. It’s a good reason to come up with a go-to saying or a list of affirmations to recite out loud (or quietly to yourself) when you’re feeling doubtful or need a confidence boost, suggests DeVaughn. “I am the Beyoncé of this office" has a powerful ring to it, as does “I will succeed on this project with ease.“</p>
<h3><b>Take 3 deep breaths</b></h3>
<p>You’ve heard that inhaling deeply can help energize and calm you. But Landolfi is a fan of a breathing exercise called "three to be free" breathing. Three times a day, stop what you’re doing and take three deep breaths to free the tension, stress, and worry that has been build throughout the workday, she says. What makes this self-care move so good for work is that you can do it discreetly while you’re sitting at your desk, and even your closest cubicle neighbor won’t be disturbed.</p>

<h3 cke-list-id="0" cke-list-level="1"><strong>Speak out in a meeting</strong></h3>
<p>Doing something bold—writing a memo outlining your concerns over a new project, for example, or volunteering to take on a client who you know will challenge you—can put you back on your A game at the office. Why’s that? Accomplishing something that you once feared can give you the adrenaline rush that you need to finish the day strong, says Landolfi. You’ll feel more a part of your team and more invested in your work.</p>

<h3><strong>Pat yourself on the back</strong></h3>
<p>Take stock of what you’ve accomplished on the job once a week or so—and congratulate yourself for your efforts and anything you’ve done to boost the bottom line or improve performance. Reminding yourself of your contributions gives you a psychological boost and helps you feel more positive, which is the ultimate goal of self care.</p>

<p>That’s what I found myself screaming at my television at the end of the latest <em>This Is Us</em> episode, “Clooney” — and be warned, spoilers ahead. The episode is not, in fact, about George Clooney, nor about the late William’s cat, Clooney. Rather, the episode is about a trip to the mall where Rebecca asks Jack to remind her to pick up batteries. They forget to pick up batteries, and guess what? This <a href="http://ift.tt/2Df2QJW">directly relates to how Jack dies</a>. WHY? Because Rebecca needed the batteries to put them in the smoke detector in the house.</p>
<p>Are you getting that? Rebecca needed batteries for the smoke detector, and soon, in the near future on <em>This Is Us</em>, Jack is going to die <em><strong>in a house fire because the smoke detector doesn’t have batteries</strong></em>. S-C-R-E-A-M-I-N-G.</p>
<p>While we still don’t know how this Pearson house fire comes to be — there’s a good theory surrounding the fact that it <a href="http://ift.tt/2DJfMZM">might be the Best Washing Machine In the World’s fault</a> — we’ve now got this new piece to the puzzle. The episode begins with Jack doing some woodworking, because he’s building Rebecca an entertainment center (awww). A few episodes ago, we saw Jack fight with some faulty wiring in the basement after a fuse blew. Any of these things could be what starts the fire in the house, and all of them are making me anxious and nervous. We know Jack’s death is coming, and <em>This Is Us</em> is teasing us with the worst clues in the world. Because one way or another, this puzzle leads to Jack’s death.</p>
<p>And, worse yet, <a href="http://ift.tt/2DhMyQk">we’re inching so close to it</a>. “Clooney” features Kevin in a cast. Randall goes to the mall to ask out the redheaded girl we’ll see him with the night Jack dies. Kate’s got her dog. We are terrifyingly near this horrific event, and I’ve never wanted a show to just STOP, so I can hold onto it in the here and now for as long as possible. If <em>This Is Us</em> would just STOP, then nothing else can happen, and Jack doesn’t die.</p>
<p>But it’s going to continue on, no matter how broken I am right now. If only Jack and Rebecca had remembered to pick up some BATTERIES. I don’t think I will ever be okay ever again.</p>

<p>With each new year comes a new opportunity to better ourselves. We vow to kick our <a href="http://ift.tt/1HqM8H2">sugar addictions</a>, call our parents more, and check Facebook less. Yet within weeks, most of us are back to snacking, screening parental calls, and mindlessly scrolling through our newsfeeds.</p>
<p>But before you become one more person observing Ditch Your New Year’s Resolutions Day (yep, it’s a real thing; January 17 is the day most people throw in the towel), know this: There’s still time to revamp a resolution that’s losing steam and initiate the lasting change you aimed for back on January 1. “The most important thing is to first figure out the top reasons why resolutions fail, and then use that to get back on track,” says behavioral psychologist <a href="http://ift.tt/2sao71R">Art Markman</a>, PhD.</p>
<p><b>RELATED:</b> <a href="http://ift.tt/2botdDs"><b>How to Break a Bad Habit in 3 Steps</b></a></p>
<p>Markman, the author of <i>Smart Change: Five Tools to Create New and Sustainable Habits in Yourself and Others</i> explains the top five reasons New Year’s resolutions fail—and the small tweaks to make to fix each mistake.</p>
<h3><b>Your resolution is framed in a negative way</b></h3>
<p>We often make resolutions around what we want to <i>stop</i> doing instead of what we want to <i>start</i> doing, says Markman. “When you have a behavior you’re trying to change, whether it’s eating less or checking your email fewer times a day, you actually have to put another behavior in its place,” he explains. “The key is to focus on a positive action that you’re going to perform in the situation where you were doing the old behavior.”<br />
<br />
So instead of vowing to give up a certain behavior or do without something, frame your resolution around the new positive action you will do in place of it. Let’s say you want to quit mindlessly scrolling through your phone at night. Instead of pledging to turn off your device by 10 p.m., vow to start getting ready for bed at that time instead. This way, you unplug digitally while rewarding yourself with more sleep—a positive action that can motivate real change.</p>
<p><b>RELATED:</b> <a href="http://ift.tt/2DyoKsn"><b>These 5 Apps Can Help You Achieve Your New Year’s Resolution</b></a></p>
<h3><b>Your end goal is too vague</b></h3>
<p>Resolving to exercise twice a week sounds like a solid plan, but it isn’t targeted enough, says Markman. “Your goal has to be so specific that the actions you’re going to take [to accomplish it] can make it onto your calendar,” he says. “‘Twice a week’ isn’t on your calendar, but ‘Mondays and Thursdays at 4 p.m.’ is.”</p>
<p>Getting specific doesn’t just help you realize what you need to do in order to see your resolution through; it also highlights the things that could get in the way of it (think: your weekly <a href="http://ift.tt/2mJfFGk">manicure</a> <i>also</i> scheduled at 4 p.m. on Thursdays). Start accounting for all possible roadblocks, and add into your planner the steps you’re taking to get them out of the way so you can actually make it to the gym, rather than make excuses.</p>

<h3><strong>You don’t address the root cause</strong></h3>
<p>In order to carry out a resolution, you need to know the who, what, when, where, and why of the behavior you’re trying to change. For example, if want to stop <a href="http://ift.tt/2mLIwtn">biting your nails</a>, pay attention to the circumstances under which you engage in the habit.</p>
<p>“I encourage people failing at their resolution to keep a habit diary for a week or two,” says Markman. “Not so they can change their behavior, but just to watch it and see what they’re doing.” Once you realize that you always bite your nails while anxiously finishing a work project, you’ll be better equipped to take actions to stop it—like buying desk toys to busy your hands throughout the day or just being more mindful about keeping your fingers on your keyboard as the deadline ticks away.</p>
<p><b>RELATED:</b> <a href="http://ift.tt/1nTKu4x"><b>10 Nervous Habits That Hurt Your Health</b></a></p>
<h3><strong>You think it’s all about willpower</strong></h3>
<p>Willpower is overrated. According to Markman, people often believe their commitment is enough to prevent them from falling back into their bad habits. Sadly, a <a href="http://ift.tt/2mrFj4o">pantry</a> full of cheese popcorn isn’t going to magically become less tempting just because you’ve told yourself you’ll stop gobbling it down while you watch Netflix.</p>
<p>“At this point you’re riding the brakes,” says Markman. “Your motivational system is reminding you of the snack in the kitchen and you have to rely on your willpower to keep you from eating it. But just like in a car, if you ride the brakes long enough, they’re going to fail.”</p>
<p>The solution? Rather than relying on willpower, structure your environment so the thing you want or habit you’re trying to break is so difficult to get or do that won’t bother attempting it. Because you can’t eat a pint of ice cream you never bought, right?</p>

<h3><strong>You’re going at it alone</strong></h3>
<p>News flash: If you succeed in carrying out your resolution, no one’s going to say <i>Congratulations, but it’s not that big a deal because you had a support system. </i>“If you find yourself ditching your resolution, phone a friend,” suggests Markman. “Find somebody who’s willing to serve as your backup so that when you’re about to slip, you can call or text them for support instead.” Crushing your goals doesn’t count any less if you do it with a little help from your friends.</p>
