It’s hard to keep your cool when your texts and phone calls suddenly go unanswered. However, you should take a deep breath and relax before launching a tirade of frantic texts or sending a 10-paragraph angry email. Not knowing why they won’t respond is maddening, but it's better to cool off before saying something you'll regret or jumping to conclusions. If you feel the need to initiate contact, stay rational. Send them a message or voicemail and say, “I haven’t heard from you lately, and I hope I didn’t do anything to offend you. If you want to try to resolve any issues, I’d be happy to talk. Otherwise, I wish you all the best.” Many people find ghosting acceptable in some circumstances. For example, if a match on a dating app starts ignoring your messages, your best bet is to brush it off and forget about it. If you just met the person or went on 1 or 2 casual dates, checking up on them probably isn’t worth your time. However, if you’ve been friends or romantically involved for months or years, they might just have a lot on their plate. Before jumping to conclusions, see if they've simply been busy, and make sure that they’re in good physical and mental health.  You could check their social media profile and see if they’re posting pictures or statuses. Keep in mind you shouldn’t obsess over their posts for hours. Just do a quick check. If you both have a mutual friend, you could ask them if the person who’s ignoring you is okay. If you think the person might be depressed or going through an emotional struggle, you could write them a message and say, “I haven’t heard from you in a while, and I hope you’re okay. I know you’re going through a tough time, and I’m here for you.” If it’s clear that the person is intentionally ignoring you, it might be best to cut your losses. If they post fun pictures on social media and your mutual friends say that they're doing well, the ball's in their court. There's not much more you can do beyond telling them you're willing to discuss any issues and wishing them well.  As...

It’s hard to make it as a big-time film critic. Many critics work hard for years before earning any money at all. Moreover, many critics write film reviews as a hobby, simply because they love film. Film criticism takes a lot of time and effort, and a steady income is not guaranteed, so passion is key. A passion for film criticism will show through in your work. If you want to critique films, you need to know what makes a quality film. Look for critically acclaimed films across all the different genres, and watch them. Consider classic films, indie films, foreign films, short films, animated films, comedies, and dramas.  Be sure to watch as many “classic films” as you can--film critics often reference these. Search “classic films” online to find a number of lists.  Purchasing a subscription to a streaming service like Netflix is a great way to get access to a wide variety of films. Reading the work of established film critics will help you gain a better understanding of film critic writing and film as an art form. Find a few critics who you really like, and follow their work.  Form your own opinions about a given film, then read a critic’s review to see how your opinions compare with theirs.  Take note of your favorite critics’ writing style and tone, and examine how they present their ideas. How do humor and context factor in to the critique? A good understanding of filmmaking and video editing is important to being a good film critic. Making a few short films of your own, whether they are 5 minutes long or an hour long, can help inform your interpretation of others’ films.

It’s harder for the teacher to see what you’re doing if you sit towards the back of the classroom, but be careful if you sit in the very back. Most teachers know that students who sit in the back want to go to sleep, so the back row might put you on the teacher’s radar. Be careful if you’re right in the center of the class, as well. This will put you right in the teacher’s line of sight. You probably know which teachers are stricter and more observant during class, and which ones get caught up in their lessons and don’t look around as often. If you can, try to schedule your nap for a class with a more relaxed, inattentive teacher. If you’re sleepy, it’s almost impossible to stay awake through a movie or a video, especially an educational one. If your teacher puts on a video and turns off the lights, try leaning back in your chair and closing your eyes. The dark room should make it easy for you to get away with a quick nap. Classes that use computers are great to nap in, especially if you’re using desktop computers with monitors to hide your face. Just be sure you keep your hand on the mouse. Try to wake yourself up and move the mouse every so often to keep the computer from going into screensaver mode.   You can also make this work if you’re using a laptop. Slouch in your seat a bit to hide your face behind the laptop. If your class is using a tablet, prop your head up with one hand and keep the other on the tablet screen to pretend like you’re working. If you don't think you'll be able to wake yourself up, you can disable the screensaver on your computer. Just be sure to turn it back on before class is over so you don’t get caught. Some classes, like art class, allow students to sit wherever they want in order to boost their creativity. If you have a class like this, do a little work first thing in the class, then sit facing away from the teacher and take a quick catnap. Doodle a little every few minutes to show that you’re working, then doze off again.

It’s imperative that you talk to your subject in a way that calms and relaxes him or her . Practice speaking slowly, with some rhythm and melody and no harsh or discordant tones. Use this as an opportunity to practice your script; if you struggle with what you want to say during induction it will break the subject’s focus. You also should not sound like you’re reading off a script. Practice will help you sound natural. You will want to make sure that he or she is relaxed. Inform him or her that you might touch him or her lightly, so that he or she is not surprised in a way that would cause him or her to break focus. If your subject is wearing a skirt, give her a blanket to put over her legs so that she does not need to worry about the way she positions herself.  Similarly, tell your subject that is okay if he or she coughs or moves. If he or she is struggling to suppress a biological function, it will likely break his focus.  Similarly, tell him or her to keep his or her legs uncrossed, otherwise he or she might get caught up by repositioning his or her legs. If he or she is wearing glasses, have him or her remove them. A distinct sense of fear will prevent him from falling into hypnosis. You want to let him know what you will not be able to manipulate them and that he will not be endangered by the hypnosis. Simply indicate "This is a perfectly safe procedure. You will enter into a state of increased relaxation and focus, but you will be in control the entire time." Always begin by asking if he r she is ready to be hypnotized. Establishing consent is important for ensuring that he or she is mentally ready and should calm him or her as well. A simple, "Do you agree to be hypnotized?" should be sufficient Hypnotic subjects need to be willing to engage in the procedure and psychologically susceptible. Studies have shown that approximately 80% of subjects are moderately susceptible, 10% are highly susceptible, and another 10% have low susceptibility.  Susceptibility is positively correlated to how well the...

It’s important for any couple to have open and honest communication, but this is especially true if you have different personalities. Make an effort to understand your partner’s needs and respect them, even if they are different than yours. This can help you understand your partner better and not take things personally.  Be honest about how much time you want to spend together, when you want to be close, and when you’d like to be alone, Tell your partner that these preferences help you function better and can help you be a better partner when your needs are met. Say, “How often do you want people at the house, and how often would you like to spend time with friends each week? Your needs may differ from mine, and it feels important to talk about it.” If you keep finding that an extroverted partner wants to go out while you want to stay in, have a discussion about social limits in the relationship. What is a workable amount of days to go out each week or month?  Talk about your social limits within the relationship ahead of time to avoid fights or disappointments. For example, if going to dinner with friends every week sounds overwhelming, then you might agree to join friends twice each month and your partner can join them weekly. If both partners are extroverts, you may want to have social time separately (like you spending time with your friends and your partner spending time with his or hers) so that you don’t spend all of your time together. Extroverts tend to prefer and increase energy by engaging with external things, while introverts tend to prefer and gain energy by engaging with the internal world. Keep this in mind as you move forward in your relationship and do activities together. An extrovert may love having dinner parties, yet, if you’re an introvert, you may feel drained. Make compromises that appeal to both of your needs, such as limiting dinner parties to once a month, or staying for half of the party. Compromise on social engagements and time spent together. An extrovert may want to spend lots...

It’s important for both mother and puppies to receive enough nutrition so that the mother can recover and the puppies can develop healthily.  Most dogs will eat the placenta and afterbirth. This is very nutrient-rich and gives the mother a much-needed burst of energy to care for her young. Feed your nursing mother puppy food. Be prepared to feed her up to 3 times her normal intake of food. Clean, fresh water must be available at all times. Place these near her puppies so that she will not need to leave them to eat and drink. Insufficient food or water will trigger the mother's milk to dry up. Expect things to go well but be prepared for complications. Because chihuahuas are a small breed, infections can quickly become life-threatening. Consult your vet if you suspect your dog has any of the following:   Metritus (an inflamed uterus) - Symptoms include fever, foul-smelling discharge, listlessness, loss of appetite, decreased milk production, and disinterest in the puppies.   Eclampsia (or 'milk fever') - Symptoms include nervousness, restlessness, disinterest in the puppies, and a stiff, pained gait. If left untreated, eclampsia can progress into muscle spasms, inability to stand, fever, seizures, and death. This condition usually develops about 2-4 weeks after delivery.   Mastitis (inflammation of the breasts) - Symptoms include red, hardened, or painful mammary glands. The mother may try to discourage the puppies from nursing, but you want them to continue doing so, as it can help flush out the infection (without causing the puppies any harm). The general rule of thumb after the mother has given birth is to watch out that she doesn’t stop caring for the pups or show signs of feeling ill.  A healthy mother will be alert and attentive to her newborns. She will only leave them for bathroom breaks and will want to rush back to them quickly. Her time should be spent licking them and feeding them.  She may or may not eat, but she should relive herself normally and drink water. She will still be bleeding but should...

It’s important not to stop at “they’re a bad kisser” if you’re hoping to solve the problem. Think of specific things your partner is doing that might bother you, so you can fix them. There are a few things that can go wrong in a kiss.  Too much teeth. Teeth banging together can definitely be a turn-off. Too much saliva. The last thing you want to say about a kiss is it’s slobbery. Bad breath. Too much or too little tongue. You might need to do this because you’re just not ready for that kind of contact, or your partner’s hands are less than gentle. Simply grab the hand(s) and redirect them towards a spot you’re comfortable with. For instance, you can take your partner’s hand to your waist, or maybe up to your face. After redirecting their hands you can let them know you enjoy being caressed there. Bumping teeth usually happens because the two of you are very eager. There’s nothing wrong with that! But unless bumping teeth is a turn on for you, you might want to slow down just a tad. If your partner doesn’t take the hint, you can take your partner’s head in your hands and gently tell them to slow down. Too much saliva can happen when there’s too much tongue action and not enough lip movement. Try focusing on kissing their lips gently, toning things down a bit. If they follow your lead, you should be dealing with much less slobber. If they don’t follow your lead, try pulling away a bit. Usually that’s enough of a sign to slow things down. Keep in mind that the amount of tongue that is acceptable in a kiss is very subjective. If your partner’s tongue isn’t doing too much, you’ll have to take the lead. Make sure your tongue has the first move; they’ll follow along.  If the problem is their tongue going too wild, you have a couple of options. The first is to pull away noticeably. They’ll either understand and slow down, or follow and keep their intensity. If they do the latter, you can stop, and gently tell them to slow down.

It’s important that the honey is raw; if it’s cooked, all the antibacterial enzymes are removed from it. Home remedies are not substitutes for medical attention if you need it. The things in this section are simply things to try that may, according to some sources, help your cut to feel better faster. You still need to wash the cut properly, use precautions for preventing infection (cover the wound while it’s unhealed), and seek medical attention if it becomes infected. You can also use commercially purchased gel. Aloe vera is known for speeding up the healing process. Warm a mint tea bag in boiling water, then lay the teabag across the paper cut. Or, stick your whole finger in cooled mint tea if the cut is on your finger. Mint has a soothing effect on inflamed tissue. Blend 3 cloves of garlic with one cup of wine, let stand for 2-3 hours and then strain. Apply to the cut with a clean cloth 1-2 times a day. Stay hydrated throughout the day and eat a balanced diet to keep your body healthy. Try to get at least 30 minutes of exercise during the day and 6-8 hours of sleep each night.

It’s important that you create a design that reflects the content and image of your blog - from your font to your color choices, make sure each element of your blog's overall design is consistent with your blog's image.  For example, cartoony art and balloon fonts might be fun choices for a parenting blog, but would be seriously confusing on a professional marketing blog. Consider hiring a professional designer, at least for your header and logo. You only get one chance to make a first impression.  Most blog hosts, including Blogger and WordPress, have “themes” that you can install. These can sometimes be customized and give your blog a fun “feel.” Most blogs have common elements, such as “About Me” and “Archives” that allow readers to learn more about you and read past posts. Common features include:  About Me Categories Posts Portfolio Contact Don’t clutter your blog! Make it easy for readers to find the content they’re looking for. Offer helpful elements such as a search bar and “popular posts” sidebar.  A “splash header” can be a good way to quickly orient new visitors. It is a large banner area at the top of the page that mentions the most important content and offers a quick introduction to the areas of the blog readers will be most interested in.  Add a “next and previous posts” feature. One way to build your readership is to keep your visitors hanging around! Adding “next” and “previous” buttons at the bottom of each post will drive your visitors to read more content.

It’s important that you establish a time and place where you can speak to your friend without fear of anyone overhearing your conversation.  Your friend may be embarrassed of the situation, or worse, you could put your friend in danger by having the conversation where the abuser may overhear.  Tell your friend that you would like to set some time aside to speak one on one and in private.  Let him or her know that it’s important. Choose a time and place that provides safety, privacy, and in which you won’t have to cut your conversation short because of other obligations. Tell your friend that you are worried about their wellbeing, and that you are speaking to them because you care deeply about them.  It may come as a shock that people have noticed what they are going through, and they may initially respond by being dismissive of your concerns.  It’s important that you let them know that you want to help.  Let them know that you are an ally and that you care about them. Explain that what they are going through isn’t right and that they should not be treated in an abusive manner. Listen to them when they speak and remain calm to avoid making your friend feel as though they are cornered. Embarrassment is a common reaction among people who have experienced abuse.  Many feel as though the abuse is the result of their own shortcomings or failures.  Make it clear that they did nothing to deserve being hurt or abused and avoid saying things that could lead them to believe you are judging them like, “why would you let this happen?”  Tell your friend that no matter what they do, they do not deserve to suffer abuse. Emphasize how important their safety is to you and let them know that they can trust you to keep what you talk about between the two of you. Your friend may not believe that they are in an abusive relationship, so you may need to explain what you’ve seen and how you perceive it as inappropriate.  Be honest without being argumentative.  Explain what has led you to meeting with them like this and how your...

It’s important that you keep the waxed area clean, especially during the first few days following a wax. Sweat and dirt can get trapped on freshly waxed skin, contributing to the development of those pesky bumps. Try showering at least once a day and making sure you clean the waxed area thoroughly during your shower. Dead skin cells can build up after you get a wax, clogging the hair follicle and causing ingrown hairs. Try swapping out your regular washcloth for an exfoliating cloth. Then gently rub the wet exfoliating cloth over the waxed area with your favorite soap or body wash.  You can buy an exfoliating cloth at your local drug store or online. You can also try a topical exfoliating product, like a post-wax cream that contains salicylic acid. Be sure to apply the products to clean skin and carefully follow the directions on the package. Exfoliating can help prevent and treat bumps. If you have post-wax bumps that are painful to the touch and/or feel pressurized under the skin’s surface, you might have infected ingrown hairs. If this is the case, take a warm compress and apply it to the affected area. Leave the compress on for 1-2 minutes, and then swipe the area with a cotton ball soaked in hydrogen peroxide. You can use a warm compress several times to help alleviate the bumps. Calming inflammation after a wax can help eliminate post-wax bumps. Dab a small amount of one-percent hydrocortisone cream on the waxed area after your procedure. For example, a pea-sized amount works well after a brow wax. Use more for a larger area. Apply a thin, even layer across the skin. If you frequently get bumps after waxing, you might want to make an appointment with your dermatologist. They can determine what is causing the bumps, such as a proclivity to ingrown hairs, and whether waxing is the best way to remove unwanted hair. For example, they may suggest a depilatory or laser treatments instead of waxing.

It’s important that you learn the proper way to behave around a beehive from someone with experience.  An experienced beekeeper can provide you with wisdom and guidance that may be difficult to find online.  A seasoned beekeeper’s poise will show you how to remain calm if you get nervous around the hive. Having support can make the situation less frightening until you are accustomed to working with bees. It’s inevitable that you will get stung at some point while working with bees.  Most experienced beekeepers have been stung many times, but eventually learn to avoid most situations that may result in getting stung.  If you are stung, treating a bee sting is fairly easy:  Remove the stinger as quickly as you can and wash the area with soap and water. Apply a cold compress and keep an eye out for signs of an allergic reaction. If signs of a moderate allergic reaction arise, take an antihistamine and apply a cortisone cream to the site of the sting. If a more severe reaction seems evident, use an epinephrine pen if available and seek medical treatment immediately.

It’s important that you send a clear message that you don’t want to be with her.  You don’t need to explain yourself.  If she’s obsessed with you, she won’t be thinking rationally.  She’ll twist any explanation that you give her into evidence that you still care.  Simply let her know that you’re through being with her.  Don’t send mixed signals either.  If you say things like “I’ll always love you,” while you’re asking her to leave you alone, you’re fueling her obsession.  Say something like “We’re not together anymore.  I would like you to move on with your life and to give me the freedom to do the same.” Make your point and go.  The longer that you stay, the more time she’ll have to try and convince you to change your mind. She may feel distraught and even cry.  Resist the urge to try and console her.  If she sees that she can get your attention by crying, she’ll do it all the time. Reassure her that she deserves a relationship with someone who really cares about her. Encourage her to find a partner who can meet her needs better than you can An obsessed ex will try anything to get your attention.  She may call you at all hours of the night, visit your house out of the blue or even send you inappropriate photos, she may even try to use the "no contact rule" against you which makes you more vulnerable to giving in. Make a list of the behaviors that you are unwilling to accept.  Whenever she does one of the things on your list, absolutely refuse to give her your attention.  Be sure to tell her that you won’t give in.  For example:  If you think it’s not okay for her to show up at your home, and she does, tell her “We’re not together anymore, and I don’t think it’s appropriate for you to come here.  If you do so again, I will not answer my door, and if you keep doing so, I’ll be forced to alert the authorities.” Never break your own rules.  If you’re not consistent, then she’ll continue to do the things that bother you. Your ex may try to use your feelings against you.  She may try to make you feel sorry for...

It’s important that your doctor be kept informed of everything you do to treat your scoliosis and back pain. Letting your doctor know about alternative treatments you’re investigating will help all of your care providers work together effectively. Your doctor may also be able to give you referrals to credible licensed professionals in your area. Chiropractic treatment may help relieve back pain caused by scoliosis. However, it does not appear to reduce scoliosis itself.  A chiropractor can also recommend an exercise program that will help relieve your back pain. Exercise does not prevent scoliosis from getting worse, but it does help relieve pain caused by the condition.  You can find a chiropractor in your area by using the “Find a Doc” feature on the American Chiropractic Association’s website. You should be aware that not all health insurance plans cover chiropractic treatments. Contact your health insurance provider first to avoid any nasty surprises. Massage therapy may help relieve back pain, including pain caused by scoliosis. You should have a licensed massage therapist who is trained in medical massage perform your massages. Medical massage is different than simple relaxation massage.  Make sure your massage therapist is licensed to practice in your area. The American Massage Therapy Association has a search feature that will help you find licensed and/or certified massage therapists near you.  Be aware that most health insurance plans do not pay for massage treatments. You may have better luck if your doctor provides you a referral for medical massage. Acupuncture may help relieve low back pain caused by scoliosis. Acupuncture is not a “magic bullet” treatment and is unlikely to improve spine curvature.

It’s important that you’re self-aware in going into this. Do you want them to love you because you feel lonely, you miss them, you want to reconnect, or you want someone in your life? Do you regret your actions and want to deal with the guilt? Are you feeling disconnected and wanting more closeness?  Imagine your ideal circumstance. If you know what you want from them, you might have a good reason to seek their love. You may find out that you don't have a great reason. Maybe you miss how good it felt to be loved, but don't really want to get back together. In this case, leave them alone. Be clear why you want this person’s love and help that motivate you to win their affection. If you haven’t spoken in a bit, you may wish to reach out. While it’s okay to establish a connection through a text or message, make sure you speak in person. This way, nothing can get lost in translation and you can be in each other’s presence. If they are hesitant to see you, then wait some time and try again. If they agree to meet you, this is a promising first step. See what it’s like to be with them and what emotions it brings up for both of you. Does it seem likely that you can win back their love? If you want to make someone love you again, make sure they are at least open to returning to a loving relationship with you. If they are distant or angry with you, don’t get your hopes up. You may need to give some space. If they have told you that being loving toward you won’t happen again, don’t try to convince them. Respect their decision and let them know that you are open to being in a loving relationship with them. If they are clear that they do not want to love you, say, “I respect your decision, even if I feel differently. Please know that this is what I want and I’m leaving the door open if you want to reconsider.”

It’s important to be firm about the fact that the relationship is over, whether you’re the one doing the breaking up or not. If you’re letting go of the man because he turned you down, then you need to be firm to yourself about the fact that it’s really over. If you told him you’d like to end the relationship, then it’s important to tell him as firmly as possible, so he has no doubts about the end of the relationship. Don’t be embarrassed about feeling sad and work on letting all of those sad, angry, confused, or bitter feelings out. Cry as much as you need to, whether you’re alone at home or talking to a friend. Write all of your feelings down. Accept that you may need to be by yourself for a few days. Do whatever you can to get those feelings out on the surface, so you can begin to accept them and deal with them. The longer you keep them bottled up, the harder it will be to let go of the man you love.  Nothing is too sappy or too ridiculous. If you want to watch a romantic comedy and cry your eyes out, put on Love Actually and go for it. If you want to sing “Let it Go” at the top of your lungs, no one is stopping you.  This is your time to deal with your break-up, and you can let your feelings out however you want. If you find that you can’t cry, that’s okay too. If you’d rather punch a pillow, no one is stopping you. Don’t expect to be running around with your friends, having an amazing time with a martini in your hand, the weekend after you have to let go of the man you love. It can take months, or even longer, for you to be ready to really have fun again, and you shouldn’t put pressure on yourself to be “okay” right away. Though it’s probably a good idea to stop wallowing after a few days and to spend some time outdoors or with other people, you shouldn’t feel like you’re forcing yourself to put on a happy face too soon.  Every woman has her own timeline. The pain you feel will depend on your way of dealing with things, as well as the seriousness of your relationship. Don’t feel like you have to be...

It’s important to consider your decision when you are not emotionally upset and able to think clearly. This can help you avoid making an impulsive decision that you may regret or hurt the other person. It’s more difficult to problem solve when you are emotionally upset, and this may contribute to irrational decisions. It’s important to gain clarity as to why you want to break up. This can help you distinguish between the simple road bumps in a relationship and more serious and irreconcilable issues between you and your partner.  Only you can define what are irreconcilable issues and those that you can overcome. For example, if your partner doesn’t treat others well or doesn’t want children, these are often factors that cannot be changed. On the other hand, a person’s unwillingness to help around the house may be something they can amend. Every couple has arguments, but if those spats are constant and ugly, it may suggest deeper issues and incompatibility.  If you're in an emotionally or physically harmful relationship, this is usually a clear sign to end the partnership. Consider writing a list of reasons you want to end your relationship. You may also want to include positives and negatives about your partner and the interactions and relationship you share.  Seeing the positive parts of your relationship on paper may help you to focus on these instead of the negativity that may come along with the feelings you currently have.  A list may also help you avoid ending the relationship based on the feeling “it feels like the right thing to do.”  Remember that any type of abuse is a clear reason to end a relationship.  Looking at the list and thinking it through, ask yourself if the relationship is more destructive to your life than enhancing it. If you're simply upset with your partner, consider if there is a way to change the dynamic in your relationship. Before making a final decision, you may want to focus on resolving issues, rather than simply ending the relationship as the first solution. If change is an...

It’s important to get your resume in the best shape possible before you begin your job search. You need to state all of your relevant work experience, use active verbs to explain the work you’ve done, and make your resume easy to read and understand. Most importantly, you have to make sure to proofread it several times before showing it to anyone.  Keep in mind that you may need to create more than one resume in order to tailor your experience to the position. If you’re applying to both a job as a library assistant and a teacher, for example, then you may need two resumes that highlight different strengths. Make sure your resume is easy to read and that it’s obvious where you worked, what your position was, and how long you worked there. Some positions will ask you to list your references right on your resume. Prepare to have at least 2-3 people who can vouch for you before you begin the job hunt. Have a friend or a professional in your field look over your resume to give suggestions for how to make it more readable. Size 11 font has been shown to be the most appealing font to employers. You can try font 10 if you really have a lot of information to cover, but you shouldn’t go smaller than that.  There is the option of paying companies to help you spruce up your resume, but this can cost a pretty penny. Use a simple font, most preferably Times New Roman. If you feel like you don’t have the needed skills to even land an interview in your field, then you may need to do a bit of skill building before you take your resume out into the world. There are a variety of ways to gain more experience before putting yourself out there if that’s what you want to do.  See if you can gain experience at an internship, even if you’re only doing it a few hours a week. Though the work won’t be paid, most likely, it’s a great way to get your foot in the door and to gain the skills you need to get an impressive resume. There are also many opportunities to learn skills online. For example, if you’re applying for editing jobs and...

It’s important to identify and understand passive aggressive behavior and not jump to conclusions about your husband’s behavior. The biggest denotation of passive aggressive behavior is a mismatch between someone’s actions and behaviors, especially around anger, and passive aggressiveness can be thought of as a covert way of showing anger. Understanding the behavior can be helpful in identifying what is underlying your husband’s words or actions, and how you can respond to what underlies the passive aggression, and not just respond to the behavior.  Passive aggressiveness is different than the occasional defensiveness or lateness. A passive aggressive behavior is purposeful and often becomes a pattern.  It’s easy to get sucked into this type of interaction, then feel blamed or at fault when this can be a tactic of manipulation. Someone who is passive aggressive refuses to take responsibility for his behavior. Your husband may lie or blame you to skirt acknowledging that he hurt you (or someone else). Methods like rationalizing, making excuses, and minimizing may be ways of denying his behavior or the impact his actions make.  Your husband may “forget” to pick up the dry cleaning, or say you didn’t remind him to get the kids after school. He may pretend that he didn’t do something when there’s obvious evidence that he did. Somehow, no matter what, he finds a way to make everything your fault and not his. He may blame you for his anger and making him explode or hit you. He finds ways to evade responsibility and blame for hurting other people. Does your husband find ways to twist the truth in order to escape blame? Do you find him constantly blaming you for things that go wrong, even if you had nothing to do with them? Instead of articulating his wants and needs, he may walk off in the middle of an argument, stop talking to you or try to put an end to a discussion by saying, “Why should I even bother responding? You’re always right.” He may also withhold things like money, sex, or other items as a way to hold...

It’s important to keep your burn wound clean, whether or not it’s infected. If it does become infected, however, you should closely follow your doctor’s advice on how to care for and clean the wound. This may or may not include washing or soaking the wound with water.  If your wound is infected and open, your doctor may ask you to soak it in warm salt water for 20 minutes, two to three times per day. You might also press a warm, wet cloth on the wound. Use warm salt water with 2 tablespoons (29.6 ml) of salt per quart of water.  If you use a washcloth on an infected wound, be sure that it is sterilized before and after. Alternatively, you can use a sterile disposable cloth. Hydrotherapy is sometimes used in rehabilitation to treat wounds that are already healed, or a bit further along in healing. Your doctor might not advise using this treatment, though, as it’s controversial. It may also be risky due to pathogens in the water that could worsen any infection. Honey may be able to provide relief by speeding up the healing of the wound, killing bacteria, and reducing swelling. Ask your doctor if you can use honey in addition to your medical treatments. If you were given a prescription for your infection, apply it to the infection according to the label's instructions. Unless approved by your doctor, avoid using over-the-counter antibiotic creams. Any antibiotics that you use on the infection must be specific to the bacteria infecting your wound. Depending on the severity and location of the burn, your activities may be limited. Avoid any activities that cause the burn to hurt or that might apply pressure to the wound. For example, if the infected burn is on your hand, avoid activities that use that hand, such as typing or grabbing objects. Use your other hand instead. If the infected area hurts, you can use an over-the-counter painkiller such as acetaminophen. For severe pain, your doctor may prescribe you a stronger prescription medication. Do not use nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory agents (NSAIDS), such as...

It’s important to keep your purple flower potato plant watered during the growing season, especially if the weather is dry. However, you should avoid over-watering it as this inhibits flower production.  You can cut right back on watering over the colder months.     Once established, the plant will be drought-tolerant but it’s still advisable to water during dry periods, especially if the soil becomes dry below the surface. The purple flower potato bush prefers even moisture in the soil so keep the layer of mulch topped up and remember to replace it annually. This will help to keep moisture in the ground. In the spring, feed your purple flower potato bush with a high-phosphorous fertilizer and continue to do so every few weeks during the growing season.  If you aren't sure what kind of fertilizer you have, check the ingredients. The amount of phosphorous should be higher than the amount of nitrogen in the mix. Nitrogen encourages leaf growth instead of flower growth.     If you prefer a more organic fertilizer, bone meal is a good high-phosphorous choice.    The purple flower potato bush is vulnerable to pests and diseases. Keep a careful eye out for aphids and use bug spray if they appear. Other issues to be wary of include blights and mildew. As flowers tend to develop on fresh shoots, cutting the plant back after each flush of flowering helps to encourage more flowers to form. To prune your purple flower potato bush, cut stems back by about a third (cutting to just above a leaf node) in the mid-late summer flowering period.

It’s important to let him know you’d like to have an important discussion, otherwise he may get defensive and upset with the abrupt ambush. This will give him some time to reflect on your relationship and prepare for a thoughtful conversation. By planning to talk, you also have time to calm down, gather your thoughts, and figure out how you will address him. It is crucial to enter the conversation calmly and with a level head. Even if you feel hurt or angry, the conversation will not be productive if you spend it crying and cursing at him. Be blunt, but do not attack him. Don’t minimize how you’ve felt, or sweep any of your feelings under the rug. Your emotions are valid, and you shouldn’t shy away from expressing yourself just because it may be uncomfortable. By laying your feelings out on the table, you allow him to give an explanation, to comfort you, to ‘fess up, or to improve his behavior. Start your sentences with "I" instead of "you" so he doesn't think you are attacking him. Saying something like, "I feel sad when we only spend time together at night" will sound better to your boyfriend than, "You only call at night and I hate it." Even if you are absolutely certain that your fears are warranted and he has been using you, it will give you closure if you let him explain himself. Avoid interrupting him, as this will only increase the tension of the situation. If you disagree with something he is saying, wait until he is finished speaking to address it. By giving him the floor, you can analyze his reaction after you've placed your concerns on the table. Is he remorseful and apologetic, or defensive and rude? Remember, your feelings are valid. Even if your boyfriend believes he has done nothing wrong, don't let him make you feel guilty for feeling the way you do. Once you’ve addressed what has been on your mind and your boyfriend has heard how you’ve been feeling, decide how you’ll proceed. If he doesn’t offer an explanation and apology that provides comfort and optimism about the future of your...

It’s important to let the broiler warm up for several minutes before you toast the bread, otherwise you may have an unevenly toasted sandwich. You can find the “broil” setting on the far end of the oven-temperature dial on most ovens. The number of times you drain and rinse it is up to you, but draining and rinsing it at least once is recommended.  Use a can opener to open the can, but don’t remove the lid. Holding the lid in place, flip the can over and hold it over the sink until all the liquid has drained. Remove the top of the can, and be careful not to cut yourself. Take the tuna out of the can and place it in a strainer or colander. Rinse the tuna thoroughly with water, then press the water out using a clean hand or a paper towel. In a medium bowl, mix together tuna, lemon juice, tomato, celery, green onion, and sour cream.  Stir to combine. Be sure to mix thoroughly so that all of the ingredients are evenly distributed. Add salt and pepper to taste. Scoop out the top of each roll, leaving a hollowed out portion so that the rolls resemble small boats. Line the bottom of the boats with shredded lettuce. Fill each boat with 1/4 of the tuna mixture. Top with tomato, bacon (if using), and cheese. Place each of the rolls on a cookie sheet.  Broil for 3 to 5 minutes, or until cheese is melted. Remove from heat, turn off the broiler, and serve.

It’s important to loosen up your muscles before you begin to exercise. This can prevent injuries and reduces the risk of cramps while you run. Do a set of walking lunges. Take a large step forward with your right leg so that your left leg is extended far behind you. Lower yourself until your right thigh is parallel to the floor. Make sure your left knee doesn’t touch the ground and that your right knee is above your right ankle! Repeat for the left leg and do ten lunges per leg. Hold on to a sturdy object such as a chair. Stand on one leg and swing your other leg forward and backward. Make sure to go through your full range of motion; this means swinging your leg up as high as is comfortable and then extending it behind your back as high as you can. Repeat for both legs. Don’t swing your leg haphazardly or you may hurt yourself. Try to swing your leg in a smooth, controlled motion. Even though you’ll be exhausted from running, it’s important to stretch so that your muscles don’t cramp up. Do some standing quads. Stand with your legs together. Bring your left foot behind your back to your left hand, keeping your thighs firmly pressed together. Press your foot with your hand, taking care not to overextend your leg. Face a wall and press your palms against the wall at chest-level. Press the ball of your left foot against the wall with your left heel on the ground. Slowly lean towards the wall, taking care not to overextend your foot. Repeat this stretch for your right foot.

It’s important to properly bandage it so that you can’t get at it to pick at it. Cuts and scrapes are common, and most of these will create a scab during the healing process. Try using glycerin soap rather than an antibacterial soap on your wound. Glycerin soap is better for hydrating and moisturizing your skin. Be gentle when washing the scab -- you don’t want to tear it. Pat the scab dry. Choose an antibiotic cream or ointment, available at any pharmacy. Keeping the scab covered in cream or ointment will speed up the healing and kill any germs that might remain in the wound. It might sting, but it’s going to help the wound heal better than it would without antibiotics. Even though many of us have learned that you shouldn’t cover a wound, new research shows that it’s actually better to cover it. It will probably take at least four to five days for the scab to fully form and the wound to heal. Keep it covered for that period.

It’s important to realize that you are never obligated to engage in any sexual contact with another person, even if that contact is something as seemingly innocent as a kiss. Your body is your own; nobody else has a right to intrude upon your personal space or to force any form of contact with you. Realizing this is an essential part of preventing someone from stealing a kiss in the future. Rejecting someone who wants to kiss you can be a difficult thing, and if you aren’t able to issue your rejection quickly, it’s possible that the other person may react before you have a chance to gather your thoughts. Learning to say “no” in this and all areas of your life can help you ward away unwanted contact. Practice saying "no" in everyday circumstances that have nothing to do with romance. Turn down plans to hang out with your friends if you aren't in the mood to go out. Tell someone "no" if you're asked to take on a project or favor you don't have the time or energy to complete. Building up familiarity with the "no" word can make it easier to use in the heat of the moment. Always try your best to be clear about your wants, especially when romance is involved. If you don’t have feelings for someone who has them for you, make your stance clear. If you aren’t ready for physical contact in a relationship, even if it’s “only” kissing, draw that line as clearly as possible. Clarify what "consent" means when you go out on a date with someone new or pursue a relationship with someone you're interested in. In addition to "no" meaning "no," it's also important to recognize that only a "yes" means "yes." Verbal confirmation of consent is important, especially early in a relationship, but you should also discuss nonverbal signs of consent with your partner. Avoiding situations that may lead to misunderstandings can prevent stolen kisses of a fairly innocent nature, and avoiding situations that could put you in compromising positions with unreliable people may prevent stolen kisses of a less innocent nature.  Don’t flirt with...

It’s important to remember that all poetry — whether it rhymes or not — comes from an oral and aural tradition, meaning that it’s meant to be spoken and heard. Before television, poetry was how people entertained themselves with storytelling. And in a time when literacy was not widespread, poetry took on certain characteristics — from rhyme schemes to metrical form — that helped people who couldn’t simply read the poem off a page to remember how the poem and story progressed.  Before you even begin trying to memorize the poem, read it out loud to yourself several times. Don’t simply read the words off the page; try to perform the poem as though you were telling the story to a crowd of people. Lower your voice in the quiet moments, and get loud in the emphatic moments. Use hand gestures to highlight key passages. Be theatrical. It’s important that you read the poem out loud, rather than to yourself in your head. Hearing the poem with your ears will help you pick up on rhymes and rhythms that will help you memorize the poem. Poets are great lovers of words, so they often use words that we’re not familiar with. If you’re asked to memorize an older poem, you will likely run across archaic words or grammatical structures that you don’t understand. Figuring out what those words and sentences mean will help you memorize the poem later. Take John Donne’s “A Valediction: Forbidden Mourning” as an example.  In the second stanza, you might have to look up the words “Tempest” (a storm), “profanation” (disrespecting something spiritual by making it secular and earthly), and “laity” (common people who don’t belong to the clergy or spiritual elite) to understand what the poet is trying to say. This stanza says, “Let’s be quiet instead of crying a lot and sighing all the time. If we told these petty commoners about our love, we’d be doing a disservice to how sacred it is.” Sometimes, it’s not the definitions of the words themselves that cause a problem, but the metaphoric use of the words. Look at stanza 3 of “A Valediction:...

It’s important to stay hydrated throughout your home pampering day. If you prepared a jug of ice water similar to the ones you find in a spa, then you’ll feel like even having a glass of water is a treat. You can add some slices of cucumbers, oranges, or limes to add an extra flavor to the water and make hydration feel like a special occasion. Make sure to drink at least 8-10 glasses of water a day so you feel healthy and refreshed. If you don’t like citrus, you can try some sprigs of mint or even some sliced strawberries instead. When you get up, work on cleansing your face with your favorite facial cleanser. Just massage it into your skin for 15-30 seconds using the pads of your fingers. Then, rinse it off thoroughly. After that, you can exfoliate your skin with a gentle facial exfoliator; if you don’t have one, use a mixture of sugar and olive oil instead. Again, massage your skin for 15-30 seconds with the exfoliator, and then rinse it off. You can even consider boiling water and then steaming your face to open up your pores afterward. To do this, just make a tent with a towel over your face, placing your face above the steaming water, and breathe it in for five minutes. Making your own hair mask can help strengthen and moisturize your hair while letting you stick to your budget. All you have to do is stir the ingredients together to make the mask, massage it into your damp hair and let it sit for 30 minutes, and then take a shower and shampoo and condition your hair as usual. Taking the time to really care for your hair is a great way to pamper yourself. Here are all the ingredients you need to make the hair mask right at home:  ½ cup honey 2 tbsp. olive oil 1 egg yolk 1 whole avocado Before your body gets wet, use a pumice stone to remove dead skin from your feet. Then, wash out your hair mask if you chose to apply one. After that, you can just shampoo and condition your hair as you normally would. You can take a bit more time with it this time, making an effort to really massage that shampoo and...

It’s important to stay hydrated, especially if you are vomiting or have diarrhea. Water can also help flush out whatever is bothering your stomach. Be sure to drink your water slowly so it doesn’t also contribute to the problem. If you have such bad nausea or vomiting that you are not only not able to eat food, but you also cannot keep down liquids, you need to go to the emergency room to be admitted to a hospital for IV fluids. You should receive IV fluids until you can tolerate liquids again. Drinking warm herbal tea can be very soothing to a sensitive digestive system. Peppermint, chamomile and ginger tea can all be effective for stomach upset. Try sipping a few cups of tea throughout the day to help with nausea, indigestion and stomach pain. Clear liquids, such as chicken broth, can really help when your stomach is bothering you. They are easy to digest and will help keep you hydrated. If your upset stomach is caused by acid reflux, buy some Tums at a drug store and take the recommended amount. If this is a chronic problem, see a doctor. You may need a prescription medicine, such as an HH2 Blocker, famotidine, or a proton pump inhibitor (PPI), like omeprazole.

It’s important to the health of your rabbit to keep its food dish refilled and clean. Remove any old or leftover food every day to prevent bacteria growth that could harm your rabbit. At least once a week, you should wash the dish with soap and hot water.  Remove stale or wilting bits of food and any other material, like fur or feces, from the dish. Wash the food dish in hot, soapy water or in your dishwasher at least once every week and more often if necessary. For example, if your rabbit urinated or defecated in the dish, it’s important to wash it. Dry the dish completely before using it again, which can prevent the growth of harmful bacteria. Refill your rabbit’s food as needed, giving it just enough food to prevent hunger. It’s also important to your bunny’s health to have fresh water daily. Refill the water bottle at least once daily and wash it at least weekly in hot water and soap to kill and prevent bacteria growth. Pour out water at least once a day and replace it with fresh water.  Take out any material floating in the water before refilling it. If the floating matter has begun to dissolve, wash the bottle in hot, soapy water. Make sure that water is flowing once the bottle is refilled. Place your finger under the bottle and press on it to ensure proper dispensing. Put the water bottle in the dishwasher or wash the bottle in hot, soapy water once a week or more often if necessary. Your rabbit will urinate and defecate usually in one corner of its habitat. In fact, your rabbit may even have a litter box. You should remove soiled litter, hay, or newspaper every day. Replace all of the litter, hay, or newspaper at least once a week or more often if necessary. Doing this prevents bad odors from circulating through your home as well as minimizing the risk of infection from bacterial buildup.  Focus your daily maintenance on the litter box or corner in which your rabbit urinates or defecates. Wipe any soiled walls or floor spaces as needed. You can use a disinfectant or a vinegar and water mixture. Allow...

It’s important to warm up your muscles before getting into the splits. Perform about 15 minutes of cardio to warm up your muscles. There are many options for cardio so do what you enjoy so you don’t get bored by the repetition. Whether you enjoy jumping jacks, climbing stairs, or jogging, get your muscles to loosen up and slowly work them up to more vigorous movements. Increase the intensity of your warm up with jump rope, squats, or box jumps to get your blood flowing in your legs. Form a bridge by lying with your back on the floor and trying to push yourself up on your feet and hands. Your knees should be bent with your palms and feet planted on the ground. You should try to form a bridge by lifting your back as far from the ground as you can by pushing down through your feet and hands. Point your elbows to the ceiling and feel your back stretch. It may be difficult at first but with time and practice your flexibility will increase. Don’t force anything if you start to feel pain. Push yourself to feel a stretch but don’t push so far that you feel pain. Use the runner’s stretch for your lower body. Get into the lunge position by taking a step forward. Bring your fingertips as low as you can. Raise your butt by slowly straightening your front leg. Inhale as you straighten your leg. Feel your front leg stretch and exhale. Get back into the starting lunge position and repeat. Repeat the runners stretch for both legs, repeating 4x per leg. Perform a standing side stretch by reaching over your head, grip your fingers together but extend your pointer fingers and keep them together. Stretch and inhale as you get as long as you can while bending to one side. Take a deep and slow breath as you hold your pose for 5 seconds then return to a tall, standing position with your arms above your head. Make sure to perform the standing side stretch on both sides of your body.

It’s important to wash your skin regularly to remove excess dirt and oil so that they don’t clog your pores. Regular, gentle cleansing can also help treat and prevent acne.  Use a gentle cleanser with a neutral pH, such as Cetaphil, Aveeno, Eucerin, and Neutrogena. Most grocery stores and pharmacies carry skin cleansing products that won’t irritate your skin. If your skin is very oily, consider using an oil-free cleanser. Likewise, if your skin is dry, try using a glycerine or cream-based cleanser.  Don’t use bar soaps as their ingredients may clog pores.  Use lukewarm water to wash your skin. Water that is too hot can strip your skin of necessary oils and irritate it. Just as it’s important to wash your skin, it’s also important to not overwash it. Cleansing too often or too vigorously can irritate your skin, strip its oils, and lead to breakouts. Washing acne-prone areas twice a day and after exercising or sweating is enough to help keep it clean and treat and prevent acne. Use a skin-type specific moisturizer after you've washed your face. Having properly moisturized skin can help keep dead skin from clogging your pores and prevent acne. Moisturizing your skin also reduces the redness, dryness, and flaking that many acne treatments can cause.  Even if your skin is oily, it may need a moisturizer. Choose an oil-free and non-comedogenic product.  Talk to a dermatologist or skincare professional, who can help you figure out your skin type. You can buy products specifically formulated for your skin type and needs at most pharmacies and at many retailers, including department stores. Dead skin can clog pores and cause or make acne worse. Gently exfoliating your skin on a regular basis may help clear dead skin and bacteria and could cause acne.  Be aware that an exfoliator will only remove surface skin and not penetrate deeply enough to scrub away pimples.  Choose a gentle exfoliator with either synthetic or natural beads that are a uniform shape. Harsh scrubs can irritate your skin and lead to further...

You can ask your spouse something like, “How do you feel about your relationship with your mother lately?” This can open up the conversation without you expressing judgements of your spouse’s mother. If your spouse doesn’t see their mother as having any problems, this could lead to marital problems down the line.  Be clear with your spouse. Offer examples of the abuse, so they can understand where you’re coming from. You can mention events from a recent visit, or specific comments your mother-in-law has made. There's a chance that your spouse will not agree with you about their mother's behavior. They might understand your position but be unwilling to take action themselves. You now need to decide if you are willing to act without help from your spouse.  Ask your spouse if they can support your actions even if they don't want to participate themselves. If you choose to act against your spouse's wishes, this could lead to serious marital problems. If addressing your mother-in-law's behavior is extremely important to you, let your spouse know. They might be willing to compromise on their position. If your spouse refuses to address their mother's behavior, this can be a sign that the abuse is ongoing and will not ever be addressed. In this case, you may need to seek counseling as a couple in order for your relationship to remain healthy. This step can be hard when you’re dealing with someone who is abusive to you or your family. However, it’s important to try to see things from her...

It’s long been known that exercise helps combat the effects of anxiety and depression. To feel awesome from the inside out, start exercising regularly, preferably around 30 minutes a day. Do aerobic and weight-training exercises to keep an endurance and muscular balance. If your schedule is hectic and there isn't room for regular exercise, find little opportunities. Take the dog for a longer walk. Vigorously clean your house. Wash your car yourself. Take the stairs. These little things add up! While exercise is great for the body, the opposite is good too. Meditation – or simply taking a few minutes to be still and observe your surroundings – is great for the mind as well. And to top it off, it shows that those who meditate reap the positive effects of meditation even outside of the meditative state. If you take a moment to be relaxed, you’ll be relaxed all day.. Not into meditation? That's fine. Take a 15-minute chunk out of your day to just be reflective. Not your style? Reading books and even playing video games may help you relax, too. It won’t come as a surprise to you that the better you eat (fresh foods full of vitamins and nutrients), the better you’ll feel from the inside out. Even serious mental disorders are made better with health eating. When we put good foods into our bodies, the food puts a pep in our step; eating unhealthy can bring us down and make us lazy.  You need about 2 cups each of fruits and vegetables every day, depending on your gender, age, and activity level. Protein and fats are important, too! For protein, eat plenty of fish and chicken. As for fats, your body does need the healthy kind; the unsaturated fats found in nuts, fatty fish, and olive oil. In addition to eating healthy, you can eat to energize your body, making your mind and body more productive. The below foods are energizing in addition to being super healthy:  Yogurt Kale Broccoli Almonds Chia seeds Salmon and trout Turkey Asparagus Most people need between 7-9 hours of sleep to feel like they’re at the best.

It’s most common to use acrylic paint on soles, which works as long as you add a sealant afterwards. There are also paints designed specifically for rubber or leather.  PlastiDip is the most popular paint choice for rubber and comes in many different colors. Angelus paints are popular when painting on leather. Let the first coat of paint you applied dry. How long you wait will depend on the type of paint you used, but waiting at least an hour is a good rule of thumb. This will give the shoes time to completely dry. Place the soles on a piece of newspaper, soles up, so that they can dry more efficiently. Leaving the shoes indoors in a cooler environment will allow them to dry faster.

It’s never helpful to tell someone to stop crying or that whatever they are crying about isn’t worth their tears. Crying lets a person feel better. Emotions when vented are better than if they are stored inside because bottled up emotions lead to mental illnesses like depression. If someone is crying, let them cry. Never say things like, "Don't cry" or "This is such a small thing, why are you crying?" They are sharing a vulnerable moment with you, so allow them to express what needs to be expressed without telling them how to feel. You might feel awkward or uncomfortable around someone who’s crying. Remember that your role is to offer support in a way that’s helpful to them, and the focus is ultimately not on you. They might want you to stay and listen or they may want some space and alone time. Don’t assume you know what they want because you don’t. Asking what they want and need puts the other person in control and gives you the opportunity to listen and respond. Whatever they ask for or need, respect what they say.  Ask, “What can I do to help?” or “How can I support you?” If they ask that you leave, leave. Refrain from saying things like "But you need me to help you!", rather just say "Okay, fine but if you need something, call or text me." People need space sometimes. You shouldn’t feel like you’re in a rush or need to go do something. Part of being supportive is being there and giving your time for the person. If you’re there to comfort them, give them the time that they need. Your presence alone can be comforting, so sticking around and making sure they are capable of getting on with their day or getting further help can be what they need most. Don’t stop for a few moments then get on with your day. Stay with them and let them know you will stay if they need you. Even if you have work to do, giving a few mins extra won't hurt. If you know your friend likes hugs, give them a hug. However, if they tend to be more physically reserved, you may wish to pat them on the back or perhaps not touch them at all....

It’s normal to be afraid that you’ll forget something or say something wrong. Being prepared is the best way to handle this fear. Read about your topic so that you understand it well. If you have time, look for documentaries or online videos to help you deepen your understanding.  When you choose a speech topic, try to pick a subject that you already know about. If you’re short on time, do an Internet search and read the first few sources that come up. However, make sure these sources are reliable. so you have a plan for what you want to say. While you don’t need to recite your speech word-for-word, it’s helpful to write out what you want to say. Include a brief introduction of yourself and your topic. Then, write out paragraphs explaining your main points and support for them. End with a conclusion that tells audience members what to take from your speech. Your speech doesn’t have to be perfect. You can make revisions while you practice it. It’s helpful to have notes when you’re giving your speech to help jog your memory when you forget what to say. However, you don’t want your notes to be too long because that makes it easy to get tripped up. Instead, include the basic elements of your speech on an outline or note card. This way, you can quickly look down and see a key term to remind you what to say. An outline for a speech about recycling might look like this:   I. Keeps trash out of landfills  A. Less trash B. Landfills last longer    II. Saves resources  A. Used for new products B. Cuts use of raw materials    III. Gives consumers a voice  A. Can choose recycled B. Brands meet consumer wants You’ve likely heard the saying, “Practice makes perfect,” and it’s true. While you might not give a perfect speech, practicing will help you feel confident when you step in front of the audience. Start by reading your speech aloud to yourself. When you feel ready, perform your speech in front of a mirror.  If you have a time limit for your speech, time yourself when you're practicing. Then, make adjustments if you...

It’s normal to feel frustrated, angry, or annoyed. However, try to be frustrated or annoyed with a situation at hand, not with your partner. They’re experiencing a mental illness; they’re not choosing to have panic attacks or anxious states to spite you.  If your partner has trouble with crowds, you might be upset that they don’t attend social occasions with you. Sometimes, serious anxiety disorders make it difficult to stay employed, which might put a financial strain on you. If you have kids together, you might be frustrated that parenting responsibilities aren't divided equally. Situations such as these are tough, but try to work with your partner to resolve them instead of holding resentment. It may help to attend a support group for loved ones of people with anxiety. Ask your partner's therapist for a recommendation or look for one in your area online. Providing emotional support doesn't mean you have to give up your life to accommodate your partner. When you enforce your boundaries, keep your tone firm, but loving. Don't yell at them or make them feel bad, but make it clear that you have the right to do things independently. Suppose they always want you to stay home with them, and get upset when you leave to hang out with friends. Say,  “I care about you, and I want to be there for you. But I have to meet my own needs, too. I need to spend time with my friends, get out of the house, and do things independently.” Bring up your concerns instead of bottling them up, and be direct with your partner. Criticizing them harshly can make things worse, so try to be gentle and avoid making accusations.  Use “I” statements when you attempt to resolve a conflict. Suppose your partner has been calling you at work non-stop, and they get upset when you can’t pick up the phone. Telling them, “You need to stop calling me so much,” comes off as accusatory, and might make them more anxious. Instead, say, “I’m concerned that I could get in trouble for taking calls at work. I don’t want you to be upset or to take this...

It’s normal to feel overwhelmed in general and just want some help. However, you’ll be better prepared to ask for help if you can clearly articulate your needs. For example, maybe you’ve recently had surgery and need a lot of help just getting things done. Your list might look like this:  Go to the grocery store Take the kids to dentist appointments Walk the dog Help with depression Assign a number from 1-10 to each need. A 10 means that this task is essential, a 1 means that it is not that important. This will help you figure out your most pressing needs. You can start with getting help for those, and then work your way down the list. For example, it’s normal to struggle with depression after a surgery. That would be rated a 10, since it can impact your ability to take care of other needs. While it might seem daunting to ask for help, remember that there are likely plenty of people in your life who will be more than happy to help you. Start with family and close friends and then think about other parts of your network. Your list might include:  Your partner Your siblings Your children Your best friend Your neighbors Now it is time to compare your lists. Choose which person to ask for help with each task. Maybe your sister is a therapist. Ask her for some ideas about how to cope with depression. If your kids are old enough, they can walk the dog. Ask your partner to take a break from work to make sure the kids get to the dentist. Ask your neighbor if they would mind picking up a few things at the grocery store the next time they make a run. Choose people based on their abilities and their relationship to you. This is called delegating tasks. Delegating tasks to people you trust can help you reduce stress, especially in times when you need extra help. It is important to remember that it is not weak to ask for help. In fact, it shows that you are strong enough to voice your own needs. You won’t be able to do much good for others if you don’t ask for the help you need. It’s also smart to ask for help. If you...

It’s not common knowledge, but sunburn on the top of your head can have a negative effect on the volume of your hair. A sunburned scalp will cause hair to fall out, leading to thinner hair with reduced volume. So, if you’re going to be out in the sun for more than 20 or 30 minutes, plan to wear a hat or put some sunscreen on the top of your head. Burning the top of your head will also make the hairs themselves brittle and thin, which decreases the amount of volume in your hair. Many men wear a baseball cap, stocking cap, or cowboy hat on a day-to-day basis. Unfortunately, this can have a negative effect on the volume of your hair. Wearing a hat can compress your hair and reduce its volume, and can also reduce circulation to your scalp. This, in turn, will reduce the health and volume of your hair. Wearing a tight hat every day can also damage your follicles and cause your hair to thin. If part of the reason your hair has lost volume is that your hair is thinning, a hair-growth product may be the most effective way to restore hair volume. Talk to your doctor, and see what type of hair-growth product they recommend. It is important to note that these products both have better success rates at stopping hair loss than they do with re-growing lost hair, so be proactive and consult your doctor as soon as you notice your hair starting to thin. The two most popular hair growth products on the market contain minoxidil (found in products such as Rogaine) and finasteride (found in products like Propecia). Minoxidil is a topical treatment and finasteride comes in pill form.

It’s not enough to have friends and family in your life for it to be meaningful. While having friends and family may contribute to happiness, it’s the deep relationships that allow you experience growth, a sense of depth, and connection.  Be open and willing to be vulnerable with the people you love. Make time for the special people in your life and resolve to create meaning in your relationships. Share your thoughts, emotions, fears, struggles, accomplishments and goals. Isolation can make your life feel empty, yet community can enrich many people’s lives and add to a greater good. You may feel like if you had made different decisions earlier in life, you’d be so much happier now or more fulfilled. On the contrary, you may feel like you live in the future, constantly weighing your options and asking “what if?” Part of dealing with existential fear is learning to live in this very present moment, right now. Let go of the past and don’t attach to the future. Instead, focus on what happens now. If you notice yourself saying, “I should have done this” or “I regret not doing that,” bring yourself into the present moment and instead ask yourself, “What can I do right now?” While living in the present can help center you and keep you from regrets, a meaningful life pulls aspects of the past, present, and future together. Think about what aspects of your past have contributed to your current strength, courage, and emotional well-being. Then, think about how you can use these characteristics you’ve cultivated to influence the future. Find ways to integrate your past, present, and future in a meaningful way. For instance, if you’re an athlete, you may make a goal to compete in a specific event. All of your training, injuries, mistakes, and frustration led you to be skilled enough right now to enter the competition. In preparing for the future, examine the ways you’ve overcome and how you will continue to overcome. Difficult situations and emotions are unavoidable and in some ways unite humans altogether. No human...

It’s not healthy for anybody’s self-esteem to be rooted in their appearance. Our physical appearance changes rapidly, can be negatively affected by many things, and definitions of beauty vary from person to person. Choose something more stable to be proud of: experience and accomplishments which cannot be taken away. Do things with your life that you are proud of. This is generally good advice for anyone of any age. If you see someone who seems to do everything in life that you want to do, go do those things. There are lots of different things to do so choose something that you think is rewarding or important. This will go further than anything else to raise your self-esteem.  Learn an instrument. Choose an instrument that you always wanted to be able to play and then learn how to play it. This will give you a great sense of accomplishment and happiness. It takes time and effort, but music classes are easily available through your local community center, community colleges, high schools, and through private tutoring. Travel. Travel the world and see things that you think are interesting. This doesn’t have to be expensive. Money can be saved by using youth hostels, couch surfing, traveling by train or carpool, or just keeping an eye out for great deals on plane tickets. Lots of amazing things to see are located nearby and can be seen or experienced for free. Traveling will give you confidence, as well as more than a few great stories to tell. Learn a visual art or sport. Which one of these you do will depend largely on if you are naturally a more physical person or a more mental person. Both, however, take time and a lot of practice to learn. You can take classes but you’ll learn best by doing, and especially doing them with other people. Doing art or sports will give you a great way to ease into interacting with others and meeting new people, since doing those activities with others is much more fun than doing them yourself.

It’s not just a metaphor – we really do some of our “thinking” with our guts. Your “gut brain” may let you know that you’re stressed or excited before your mind does by giving you a stomach ache, a feeling of butterflies in your stomach, or that distinctive sinking feeling that you get when you hear bad news. If your stomach hurts or feels uncomfortable when you’re dealing with or even thinking about particular situations or people, this is may be your body telling you that they are a source of stress for you. Be aware of these signals, and take a break or avoid the triggering situation or person if possible. You may not always be aware of it, but your sense of smell can be a powerful survival tool. Your nose can tell you if something is unsafe to eat, and can even help you evaluate another person’s emotional or physical state. Boost your sense of smell by exercising regularly and avoiding pollutants that damage your sense of smell, like cigarette smoke. When you enter an unfamiliar situation, take a quick look around. Even if you aren’t consciously aware of everything you’re seeing, your eyes may pick up on important visual cues that can contribute to intuitive responses. For example, you may subconsciously pick up on subtle changes in another person’s facial expressions or body language beyond what is immediately obvious. If something seems amiss or alarming about a person or situation, it might be because your eyes noticed something that your mind didn’t. Dangerous or uncomfortable situations may trigger a physical stress response. In addition to an upset stomach, you might feel your palms sweating and your heart racing. In some cases, our bodies pick up on the signs that something is amiss before our brains do. Listen to what your body is telling you: these stress reactions are a signal to the conscious mind to be on guard.

It’s not just what you say that is important, it’s also how you say it. The tone and volume of your voice can have a big impact on how people respond to you, and whether or not they listen to you. Try to speak at a normal conversational volume, not too loud, and not too quiet. Use a tone that is firm but not aggressive. This will make you sound more confident and assured.  Don’t mumble your words, and pay attention to the responses of your interlocutors to judge their reactions. If they are leaning forwards, it might be because you are talking a little too quietly and they are struggling to hear you. Eye contact is an essential part of non-verbal communication. Just by looking at somebody you are inviting a certain level of interaction and engagement. Research shows that somebody returning eye contact is generally indicative of the acceptance of an invitation, and averting the eyes can suggest a rejection. People who seek eye contact with their interlocutors are generally perceived as more believable and earnest.  Try to maintain eye contact with the person you are talking to, but be sure to do so in a non-aggressive way and don’t stare. Try to maintain eye contact for around 50% of the time you are talking, and 70% of the time you are listening. Once you establish eye contact, hold it for around five seconds. When you look away, do it slowly. Don’t suddenly look in another direction. Try to establish eye contact before you start speaking to someone to make a strong initial impression. Good body language can really help you create a strong impression when talking. It’s important to consider your body language and how well it matches up with what you are saying. For example, you will be sending mixed and confusing messages if you speaking firmly, but looking down at floor.  Try to maintain good eye contact, stand tall and straight, and relax your face while talking.  Body language is thought to give an honest expression of how you are feeling.  Try to look appropriately relaxed for the situation, but don’t try...

It’s not uncommon to have some pain or discomfort at an injection site for a few hours or days. Looking for signs of post-injection inflammatory reactions can help you figure out the best way to relieve your pain or if you need to see your doctor. Common symptoms are:  Itching Redness radiating from the injection site Warmth Swelling Tenderness Pain Put an ice or cold pack over the injection site. This can relieve itching, swelling, and pain by constricting blood flow and cooling your skin.  Leave the ice on the site for 15 – 20 minutes. Do this three to four times per day until the pain eases.  Use a bag of frozen vegetables if you don’t have an ice pack. Put something like a towel between your skin and the ice or cold pack to minimize the risk of frostbite.  Put a clean, cool, wet washcloth over the injection site if you don’t want to use ice.  Avoid applying heat to your injection site. This can increase swelling as it brings more blood to infected area. Over-the-counter medications can relieve pain and swelling. Consider taking these medications if you have a lot of pain or inflammation at the injection site.  Take pain relievers including ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin IB), naproxen sodium (Aleve) or acetaminophen (Tylenol).  Do not give aspirin to children or teenagers under 18, as it increases the risk for Reye's syndrome, a potentially fatal condition.  Minimize swelling with NSAIDs (non-steriodal anti-inflammatory drugs) like ibuprofen and naproxen sodium. Avoid taxing the area where you had an injection, especially if it was a cortisone shot. This can give the injection site time to heal and may prevent further pain or discomfort.  Keep heavy lifting to a minimum if you got a shot in the arm. Stay off of your feet if you got an injection on your leg.  If you have received a steroid shot, avoid heat for 24 hours to ensure the injection will have maximum response. In some cases, injections can cause allergic reactions or prolonged pain. Seek medical attention as soon as possible if you experience any of the...

It’s not unusual to have a stepmom.  You probably even have a friend or two with a stepparent. Getting advice from someone your age who is in a similar situation can prove to be very valuable.  Feeling as though you aren't the only one adjusting to a stepparent will make you feel less anxious about the situation. Try to identify with another kid’s situation, rather than focus on what’s different about your families. Even if your friend’s situation is different from yours, she’s likely to be sympathetic to what you have to say. Starting a conversation about what is bothering you will help you get to know each other better. Sometimes resolving a problem together can make people feel closer to each other. This can help ease the tension and resolve the problems between you. Approach her with your concerns in an honest and nonjudgmental way. Some suggestions for starting the conversation are:  ”I’m sad and angry about how things are going. Can we talk about it?” ”I want us to have a better relationship. Can we discuss how we could maybe do that?” ”I know you’re different than my mom, but it really bothers me when _____ happens. How can we fix this?” ”I’m not used to your way of doing things yet. I was wondering if we could talk about what you think house rules should be.” Unfortunately, not all parents listen to and respect the fact that their children have valid opinions. This is known as an authoritarian parenting style, in which "it's my way or the highway." Feeling unheard and being told to fall in line and simply accept your new situation "because I said so" can be extremely frustrating. If your dad and stepmom aren't listening when you say you're struggling, you may need to take other steps to deal with your stepmom.  Talk to the school counselor about your feelings. Consider asking a mediator to be present when you talk to your dad and/or stepmom. A trusted grandparent, aunt or uncle, counselor, or family friend can help you communicate and compromise. Your dad and stepmom might be more willing to listen if...
