While classes aren't for everyone, a class can jump start your meditation practice, making it easier for you to make it an everyday practice. Plus, if you have no idea where to begin, a class will help you figure out a good starting point.  Look for meditation centers in your area. Some yoga studios offer meditation classes as well. Also, Buddhist temples or centers in your area will likely offer classes on meditation. You may also find meditation classes through your library or your local parks and recreation department, and some churches offer meditation classes, particularly ones that embrace other traditions, such as the Unitarian Universalists. Everyone gets distracted when they meditate. When you're first starting out, that may make you anxious or angry at yourself. However, rather than becoming angry, just try to be aware of when your thoughts are drifting, and pull them back to the meditation. That is, you may think you have to meditate every single day at a certain time for it to be helpful. However, if you fall into that thinking, you may find yourself giving up because you miss a few days. Keep in mind that even a little meditation can help improve your memory. Therefore, try to meditate when you can, even if you don't find time to do it every day. If you don't want to take a class, you can still benefit from the wisdom of others. Try doing a guided meditation. You can find many online, or you can download free apps. The person on the other end will walk you through a meditation process, helping you to learn how to do it. You don't have to meditate the same way every time. For instance, some people find a walking meditation helpful. Talk a ten-minute walk, focusing on different sensations in turn. Start with feeling your body walking, really focusing on what the movements feel like. Move on to the feeling of breathing. After that, focus on what the air feels like on your skin, then try thinking about just what you see and then just what you hear.

While classics like Moby Dick are incredibly important historically and have a lot of literary value, they can be too long, boring, and seemingly irrelevant to hold your students' interest for long. Instead, assign shorter or more contemporary works, or works that you know your students will enjoy. Look for literary or academic merit in unlikely places: even a zombie apocalypse novel like Colson Whitehead's Zone One deals with challenging and important topics that perfectly complement a classic like Hemingway's In Our Time while still remaining relevant to modern audiences. While it may seem nice to have your students read a lengthy novel in a week, this can be an unreasonable expectation. Your students won't be able to finish the reading and will skim it, read a summary instead, or not read it at all. Encourage your students to complete their homework and get the most out of their education by assigning smaller amounts of homework that directly relate to the class work.  Your focus should be on creating an in-class environment where you can monitor your student's work and progress. If you choose to give homework, it should be brief and relate directly to your in-class assignments and discussions. Short stories are excellent ways pieces to assign as critical reading. Just because there's less to read doesn't mean your students can't learn key concepts. Find short stories that illustrate what you're discussing in class and use them to keep your students engaged. Ask students to write a short response to a reading assignment, including an interpretation of or questions about the reading. These assignments should challenge students to think critically and consider important questions, or make connections between class topics. Don't assign busywork. Some assignments like vocabulary sentences and definition work are helpful. However, sending home a reading that isn't related to class work just to make sure your students have English homework is stressful and unnecessary. Focus on the quality of the homework you...

While clematis aren't prone to being affected by pests, they can get a fungal disease that can cause the entire plant to turn black and die. If you see a dead or wilting stem on the clematis, use a clean pair of pruning shears to trim it away at the base. Disinfect the shears in an isopropyl alcohol or a bleach solution between cuts so you don't spread the disease to other parts of the plant. Since flowering becomes less abundant on stems over 4 years old, you can cut off the oldest stems to encourage new ones to grow. Wait until after the first bloom of the season, then use a pair of clean pruning shears to remove the stems at the base stem. Clematis does well with an annual pruning to encourage fresh growth. However, different cultivars require pruning at different times of year. It's important to know exactly when to prune your specific cultivar, since you can damage the plant if you prune it at the wrong time of year.   Plants that bloom on old wood, meaning the flowers appear on last year's stems, require no pruning except to cut back their size a bit and keep them contained. After they flower, prune back to a pair of healthy buds. (Apple Blossom is in this group.)  Plants that bloom first on old wood and again on new wood, meaning the flowers appear on last year's stems and new spring stems, need to be pruned to remove weak growth. Prune them in early spring, before they bloom, to remove weaker stems, then again after they bloom to improve their shape. (Nelly Moser and Ernest Markham are in this group.)  Plants that bloom on new wood, meaning the flowers appear only on new spring stems, should be cut back to 12 inches at the beginning of spring. (This includes Niobe, Princess Diana, Jackmanii, and Venosa Violacea.)

While clubs and bars may not seem like the ideal place for conversation, you can meet women there. In fact, many people go out in the hopes of finding dates or new boyfriends or girlfriends, so the odds are in your favor. However, if you're going out dancing, make sure you stand out by learning some good moves for the dance floor. Girls will be so busy noticing your dance moves, they won't have time to notice if you're attractive or not.  If you're not a very good dancer, ask a friend who is a good dancer to show you some moves. If clubs aren't your thing, go other places where people are social, like a coffee shop. You could also join local clubs, take a class at the community college, or join an athletic team. The main thing is you need to get out there and meet people. Another option if you don't want to meet people in clubs or other public places is online dating. If you're a bit shy about putting yourself out there, online dating sites can act as a bit of crutch, as you don't have to go up and talk to random strangers. In addition, it puts you in touch with many more people than you could actually meet in person.  You should put up a profile picture, but since you're in control, you can choose one you find flattering. In addition, most of the people you meet on these sites will be single and available. You probably heard it said that there's someone for everyone, and that's true. Try to express who you are in your demeanor and the way you dress, as that will attract someone who's interested in some of the same things you are. Plus, if you stand out a bit, you won't be lost in the crowd. For example, if you're a bit nerdy, don't be afraid to don a nerdy shirt when you're out in public. You'll find plenty of girls are attracted to nerdy guys. You should go up and talk to people. That's how you get to know someone. However, you should always consider where you are, too. If you're at a park late at night and you see a woman walking alone, that is probably not the best time to go strike up a conversation. In...

While croquet can be played on any lawn, the balls will travel faster and more smoothly over short grass. If possible, find a flat lawn without many slopes, patches of uneven ground, or other obstructions. This croquet setup is popular all around the world, and is used for tournaments in the U.K. and Commonwealth. If you are playing with adults on a large, flat lawn, measure 14 meters (46 feet) using a tape measure. If your lawn is smaller, has high or uneven grass, or if you are playing with children, try 10m (33 ft), 7m (23 ft), or any measurement that fits. If you have extra stakes or flags, place one on each side of this line to demonstrate the boundary of the court. You may also use a stick, rock, or any other noticeable object. For a more precise boundary, tie a length of string between them. The croquet playing field is rectangular, with the long side 1.25 times as long as the short side. Starting from one boundary marker, walk at a right angle to the first line while measuring with the tape measure. Once you reach a distance 1.25 times as long as the short side, stop. If you are using a full size garden croquet field, your field's measurements will be 14m x 17.5m. Other possible sizes include 10m x 12.5m (33ft x 41.25ft) or 7m x 8.75m (23ft x 28.75ft). As before, use a flag, stick or other object to mark the corner of this boundary. If you have a string, stretch it between this marker and the last one you put down. From the end of the long line, turn at a right angle and create another short side parallel to the first one. Place the fourth boundary marker to create the last corner. Stretch a string between this boundary marker and the two nearest markers. If the rectangle doesn't look even, you may move one of the boundary markers to make the sides parallel. Stretch a long length of string across opposite diagonal corners of the rectangle. Do the same between the other two corners. The point where the strings cross is the center of the field. Put down a stake or stick to mark this point. Do not use a...

While depression has the same underlying features in both sexes, there are some gender based differences.  Men tend to blame others for their problems while women blame themselves.  This difference has been theorized to be based on the tendency for women to internalize their feelings while men often externalize their feelings. When someone externalizes their feelings they can act out in angry, aggressive, and reckless ways.  Someone who internalizes (often women) will engage in distorted thought patterns and blame themselves for things they may not have any control over. During depression men tend to create conflict while women will often avoid conflict.  Men typically need to feel in control while women have trouble setting boundaries and feel out of control.  One way a male might try to cope with depression is by reasserting their control over the situation.  Women will often lose control through their depression and feel helpless. This goes back to the nature of internalizing and externalizing emotions, with women internalizing and men often externalizing. Women get lost inside of themselves with their emotion, while men take it out on the world. Both men and women will try to self-medicate, but by using different “medicine.”  Women will use food, friends, and love to self-medicate while men typically use alcohol, TV, sports, and sex to self-medicate. All these differences are due to the fundamental difference between externalizing and internalizing emotion.  Men externalize which results in self-medicating with alcohol and sex, while women that internalize will seek out emotional support in the form of friends and food. For some reason, depression is more commonly associated with women. This is likely because there is a stigma associated with men who show their feelings. This traditional view needs to be broken, as men do not always need to be "tough." Men tend to think that they'll be perceived as weak, which simply isn't the case. Showing emotion is not only natural, it's important. Because of this,...

While doctors and scientists do not believe a poor diet can cause eczema, healthy foods go a long way in promoting total body health. Opt for foods rich in vitamins and nutrients over those loaded with preservatives and empty calories. Eating good foods will improve much more than your skin health. Try adding fish oil capsules to your diet. Check sensitivity to pork and food dyes. Seafood has also been known to incur an allergic reaction. Bargain brands often contain harsh chemicals that can strip away the skin's protective oils. Use only the recommended amount to ensure that your washer will be able to rinse it all out. Try to buy new clothing without tags, and make sure you wash it before the first wear. If you are treating a flare up, alternative bathing methods may be necessary. When the flare up subsides, look for soaps and shampoos designed to promote healthy, moisturized skin. Stay away from soaps and shampoos containing dyes and perfumes. When treating an eczema flare up, look for moisturizers that are designed to control itching and inflammation, repair the skin, and fight infection. When the flare up subsides, switch back to an everyday sensitive skin moisturizer. See this guide for more on choosing the right moisturizer. This includes licking your lips as well, if that is the affected area. There are several ways to reduce itchiness from eczema. Make sure your skin is moisturized by keeping the house humid and applying moisturizer throughout the day. Keep your fingernails short and smooth so that absent-minded itching is less harmful to your skin – but keep an eye on your hands! In normal circumstances, a degree of sunlight is beneficial for your skin as a source of vitamin D. In fact, many eczema patients report that sunlight helps their symptoms in general. However, prolonged exposure to sunlight can also make your rash worse. If you're going to be outside for a long time, cover affected areas with clothing, if possible, to minimize damage from sunlight. Be especially careful about the sun if...

While doing these things alone won't necessarily make you lose weight, they can be helpful little tricks to keep you moving on the right path. Try out the following to help your hunger cravings during the day:  Eat three fewer bites of each meal. Put your knife and fork down between bites. Use smaller plates, and fill your plate only once. Wait to eat until you feel hungry, don't just snack when you're bored. If you're used to big snacks and indulgent meals, it's no secret that dieting and switching to exercise is challenging. But learning to manage your cravings for a big slice of cake or a greasy hamburger is possible, with a little creativity.  Smell fresh fruit when you want a snack, instead of eating something. "Close" your kitchen between meals. Don't keep sugary or fattening snacks in the house. Some studies show that the color blue is an appetite suppressant. Try getting a blue tablecloth, or blue dishes to eat on. Going out to eat makes it too easy to cheat. Food sold at restaurants is commonly much higher in fat, sodium, and other weight-loss killers. The portions are also often much larger than what you might usually eat at home, as well. Instead of heading out, try to make your own meals.  Eat in a small group, instead of a large one. Some research shows that people eating at big tables tend to eat more than people eating alone.  Don't eat while you do other things, in general. Watching television, or reading, or working while you eat often causes people to eat much more food than they normally would. One recent study revealed that people who eat cereal for breakfast each day have a much easier time losing weight than people who eat other types of breakfast. Start your day right with a high-fiber, nutrient rich natural cereal, or oatmeal. Switch to skim milk with breakfast and for use in other dishes. Each lower-fat step you take down, you're losing 20% of the calories. Switching to a low-fat version of milk is an excellent way to cut down on the calories you're taking in, without having to...

While each person will experience different effects from a stroke, hemiparesis (or weakness) of the whole side or just the arm or leg is a common result of a stroke. In addition, problems with balance and coordination are common, too. Thus, adjustments may need to be made to ensure that your loved one (who may now have mobility difficulties) can easily access her house. When attempting to make your house stroke-survivor-friendly, consider the following suggestions:  Move the person’s bed to the ground floor so that she can avoid having to use the stairs, where falls are more likely to occur. Clear a path to all essential rooms (including  bedroom, bathroom, and kitchen). Less clutter will mean that your loved one is less likely to fall. This includes removing area rugs. Install a seat in the shower to allow her to sit while bathing. Additionally, install handrails to assist with getting in and out of the tub and/or shower as well as by toilet to help her get up and down if needed. Make a bedpan readily available at her bedside. Encourage use of this commode, especially if the person feels off-balance or disoriented as this can avoid falls which could further injure the patient. If stairs cannot be avoided, install handrails around the stairs to assist your loved one move up and down. The person's physical therapist should be working with the person to re-learn how to navigate her environment, including going up and down stairs. A new deficiency in mobility is one of the most common issues faced by stroke survivors. A person who was once very mobile and independent may be reduced to slow, unsteady walking or even be largely bed-bound after a stroke. Expect your loved one to require some assistance moving around for at least a period of time after a stroke.  Assistive devices can be used to better facilitate mobility. Family members can consult a physical therapist in order to find out which assistive devices would best suit the stroke survivor. These devices could include a wheelchair, walker, or cane...

While early stage baker’s cysts might cause pain when you use your knee a lot or when you move in a certain way, as the cyst gets worse you will be able to feel the pain whenever you move, regardless of how small the movement its. The pain will become more intense and may take on a burning sensation right where the cyst is located. When too much pressure gets put on the cyst at the knee joint, the cyst can actually tear. The fluid from the cyst will drain into the surrounding area, and the cyst will actually split open so that you might be able to see liquid leaking down the back side of your knee. The longer you wait to take care of the cyst, the less you will be able to move your knee. This inability to move well is both because of the pain you will feel when you move, and the inflammation that will actually keep you from bending your knee. Signs that you should consider getting treatment for your cyst include:  Being unable to fully bend your knee. Being unable to fully extend (or straighten) your knee. Feeling pain while trying to bend and extend your knee. Sometimes a baker's cyst might become enlarged and actually spread down into your calf muscle. If this happens, your calf might develop a red, rash-like appearance. Your leg might also feel warm (which is known as erythema)  and your lower leg could become swollen (which is called distal edema). The swelling is caused by the enlarged cyst pressing on the veins of your leg. If you are aware of other medical conditions, this enlarged cyst is similar to the condition called deep vein thrombosis. On rare occasions, an enlarged cyst can break open, leaking fluid into your calf muscle. Signs that this has happened include severe pain, warmth, and tenderness in your calf. Your calf might also develop red or blueish spots where blood has leaked into the surrounding tissue. If you see any of these symptoms, go to a hospital immediately.

While eating three “solid or large” meals a day may have been the key to growing “big and strong” when you were little, as an adult trying to lose weight this is not what you want to do. The best way to stay under that 1500 calorie ceiling is to eat three small meals a day. Do not eat more than 400 calories for any one meal. The most persistent myth in the dieting world is that you should eat six small meals rather than three moderate meals. The idea is that your body will be able to process this food more efficiently, maintaining blood sugar levels throughout the day, and keeping your metabolism in good shape. Science doesn’t not corroborate such claims. It is far more important to find an eating schedule that corresponds to your lifestyle. Can you stop and eat six times a day? Do you have the time to prepare six small meals? If not, don’t worry. You can still lose an equal amount of weight by eating three times a day. Resign from the “clean your plate” club. Eat half of your normal meal. Stop for a moment and assess your hunger level. Give yourself a couple of minutes before you resume eating. This will let your body catch up. You might just discover that you are actually full.  This is also called "intuitive eating" and could mean the difference between maintaining a healthy body weight and being overweight. There still are starving children around the world. Save your leftovers for later meals or snacks. Chewing itself doesn’t burn calories or magically decrease the number of calories in your food. By chewing slowly, you are giving your stomach time to report back to your brain after you’ve consumed something. Either your stomach will tell you to keep eating or that it is full. Fast chewers tend to consume more than they need to, because they haven’t waited for their stomach’s report.  Instead of rushing through your meal, enjoy your food and allow your body to fully respond to the nutrients you are giving it. This principle was discovered by a research team at Iowa State University. In an experiment,...

While enzymatic cleaners are ideal, you can substitute a homemade cleaner that uses white vinegar, baking soda, liquid dish detergent, and 3% hydrogen peroxide. Vinegar helps to kill any bacteria and neutralize the odor. This mixture works well for treating both old and new stains. Pour this mixture over the stain and soak for about 3 to 5 minutes. Then blot the area to soak up the excess liquid. Note that vinegar should not be used on marble or stone surfaces. Be generous in your application of the baking soda. It helps to draw out the urine. Sprinkle this solution over the baking soda. Scrub this solution into the soiled area with a cloth. Rinse the cloth several times as needed. Scrub in several different directions to make sure the solution is thoroughly penetrating the soiled area. Blot the area again. Once the spot is good and dry, vacuum up the excess baking soda. If the surface of the affected area feels hardened or crunchy, try rinsing the area with some warm water and letting it air dry. Once you have cleaned the soiled area and are giving it time to dry, close off the area to prevent your cat from having access to it. This will give you time to be sure that the stain and its odor have been eliminated. Then you can open the area again. Remember to keep your eye on your cat and your nose attuned to any smells of urine.

While every successful game is unique in its way, almost all of them fit into a specific genre. Decide what kind of game you want to create, and look at what other games in the same genre do. Some common genres include:  Arcade games Shooters Puzzles Platformers Racing Adventures Endless runners RPGs First-person shooters Third person shooters Story/Manga driven JRPG Visual novels Tower Defense Horror Fighters Comedy Survival The platform that you choose to develop your game will significantly impact the way it is developed. The platform dictates the way the game is controlled; smartphone games are typically touch-and-tilt-based, PC games typically use a keyboard and mouse, and console games use gamepads. Note that most commercial PC games also support Gamepad.  There are exceptions to all these rules, but you will generally find it easier to design the game around a specific control method. If you want to make an iPhone game, you will need to submit it to the Apple store from a Mac computer. However, one exception is the Godot Engine which also allows you to create for iPhone on Linux which is useful if you don't have a Mac. This should just be at least one page but will be the heart of the gameplay experience you create. It contains the fundamental concepts of your game and will allow you to see if your idea is viable as a video game. This statement will serve as the motivating force behind the game. These are very simple statements that get to the heart of what the game is. Revisit it often to ensure that your game is still meeting its basic goals. Some example core philosophies:  This game simulates a space station economy This game lets you play as a living car This game is about testing the player's reflexes The features are what sets your game apart from others in the same genre. Start by listing your ideas and concepts. Turn those concepts into action-driven sentences. Shoot for between 5-15 features. For example:  Concept: space station construction.

While everyone's face is different, there are seven general shapes: round, heart-shaped (base-up triangle), triangular (base down), square, rectangular, oblong and oval.  Round faces tend to have full cheeks and rounded, full forehead and chin. Celebrities with round faces include Kirsten Dunst, Chrissy Tiegen, and Leonardo DiCaprio. The phrase "heart-shaped face" can be a bit misleading; a heart-shaped face is really more like an upside down triangle, with a wide forehead that narrows to a pointed chin. A heart shaped face can be long and graceful or more rounded, but both tend to have high, angled cheekbones. Celebrities with heart-shaped faces include Reese Witherspoon, Christina Ricci, Jennifer Aniston, Ryan Gosling, and Bradley Cooper. Triangular faces tend to have narrow foreheads and a wide, strong jaw (the jaw itself is often angular). Examples of celebrities with triangular faces include Queen Latifah, Minnie Driver, Kelly Osbourne, and Chris Pine. Square faces have strong, wide foreheads and equally strong, wide chins. They are also proportionate in the length and width of the face. Famous square faces include Olivia Wilde, Rosario Dawson, Josh Hutcherson, and Nick Lachey. Rectangular faces are very similar to square, but with a longer length than width, such as Demi Moore, Brad Pitt, and Angelina Jolie. Oblong and oval faces are very similar as well; they are both rounded and proportional, but an oval face has a more pointed chin. Examples of celebs with oblong faces include Kim Raver, Sarah Jessica Parker and Jude Law; examples of famous oval faces include Liv Tyler, Kim Kardashian, and Adam Levine. Pull or pin your hair back away from your face so that you can see your face clearly. Many faces do not fit clearly into only one specific type but have features that resemble two or even more types.

While exact pronunciation varies from region to region and dialect to dialect, the most common way to say "hello" is almost always some form of "nǐ hǎo."  In all dialects, the Chinese script for this greeting is written as 你好. Note that the romanization of 你好 will usually give you a rough idea of how to pronounce it. In Hakka Chinese, for instance, the romanization is Ni ho. The beginning nǐ sound is harder, while the ending hǎo sound sounds less like the English "ow" and more like the English long "o." In Shanghainese, on the other hand, the romanization is "Nong Hao." While the hǎo portion is very similar, the beginning nóng sound is more elongated and comes to a hard conclusion at the end of the syllable. The Mandarin and Cantonese phone greetings do not work with Hakka Chinese.  Used in other contexts, oil is an interjection meaning something along the lines of "oh." In Chinese script, I am writing as 噯. A rough pronunciation is simply Oy or ay. This greeting translates into "hello everybody" and can be used when greeting more than one person.  In native Chinese script, this phrase is written as 大家好. A rough pronunciation of this phrase is due-gee how". DA is a fourth (sharp, falling) tone and Jia is a sustained pitch (a first tone word).

While eye contact is key to attraction, being too enthusiastic can be off-putting. Try to avoid going overboard with eye contact.  Once you've initiated conversation with someone, glance away while he or she talking now and again. Do not be rude by glancing away to look at your phone or someone else. Just briefly glance to the left or right to avoid being overwhelming with eye contact.  You should strive to look at someone's face about three quarters of the time you're talking to that person. Keep your glances between one and seven seconds. This shows a genuine interest, which can be attractive, but does not overwhelm a potential partner with eye contact. Raising your eyebrows can be seductive. Raising your eyebrows conveys interest and recognition. When you're talking to someone, raise your eyebrows when conversation begins. This can increase your chance of seducing this person. The way you look at someone can effect your likelihood of seducing that person. Maintain level, steady eye contact when talking to someone rather than looking using the corner of your eyes. Side-eyeing can help with making initial eye contact. However, people tend to respond better to occasional direct eye contact during conversation rather than side-eyeing. On occasion, glance the object of your attraction up and down. This can help convey attraction.  You can also tell if a person is interested in you based on how they look at you. If someone glances at your hips and thighs there's a good chance they're interested in you.  When you're interested in someone, you can show this by eyeing their head and shoulders while they talk. This tends to convey attraction, which might help in seducing someone.

While free file software is clearly preferable, understand that you may need professional (paid) software if your output needs are extremely specific in terms of codec, size and other factors. If you downloaded the program online without paying for it, consult appropriate forums for pointers or post on forums with specific questions you may have. Most programs have either an "Add files" option, or will let you drag and drop the file(s) manually onto the conversion screen. Add any applicable parameters for size, resolution, codec and other factors in the Settings menu, if your program has one. Open the drop-down Output Folder and select the destination where you want the converted file to be retrievable from. Skip this step if you want to use the default location for converted files. Choose output file nomenclature that will help you find and retrieve files easily.

While getting surgery isn't recommended in the face of so many potentially effective alternatives, it remains an option for someone wanting fuller lips. Most surgeries take the form of injecting material into the lips, and usually work on a semi-permanent basis, subsiding after a period of several months. As everyone's lips are a unique case, it is important to first consult a trusted doctor about a surgery if it's something you're looking into. The doctor will be able to offer specific advice relating to your situation, as well as details relating to the chosen surgical procedure. Make absolutely sure that the doctor is trusted and well-reputed. Operations like collagen injections have gone famously wrong in the past, and it's important to enlist a doctor who knows what they're doing. Look into hyaluronic acid filler (HAF) injections. Compared to some of the longer-used methods for lip augmentation, hyaluronic acid is the safest and best-recommended type of filler for your lips. The filler in these injections approximates natural compounds found in the body, and unlike fat grafts, require no liposuction. HAF injections are used to improve the shape, structure and volume of your lips. Although fairly expensive (running between 500-2000 dollars) and uncovered by most insurance plans, reception to these injections is generally very positive.  Collagen is a less common lip filler now than it used to be, but it still plays a significant role in the world of lip augmentation. Take some time to look into collagen if you're exploring surgical options. Another widely used method of lip augmentation is fat grafting. This procedure transplants fat from another part of your body (extracted via liposuction) and injects it into your lips. While this means you won't have any foreign matter in your body, the process is longer, more uncomfortable, and carries greater risks than a HAF injection. Although the word implies a high level of severity, most lip augmentation surgeries actually happen fairly quickly. Despite any...

While having little to do with the act of eating per se, it will help your eating progress if you acknowledge and understand the specific reasons why you may be feeling this way. Feeling blue may be caused by a load of things. Likewise, there may be biological factors at work which play into depression. The mere act of contextualizing these feelings and actively working through them will make the act of eating seem all the easier. It's just as important of a psychological step to remember the practical (and necessary) health benefits of eating food. If you see eating as an absolute necessity, you may feel more inclined towards eating. Watching TV while eating is often seen as a bad thing and a cause for why people overeat. You may actually find a benefit to watching TV, as you will be able to eat food without it being taking of your attention. If you're having a hard time eating a lot, you can always start out really small. Instead of seeing it as a chore, try to see eating the food as a sensory experience. Find a food you love to eat, and approach it purely with the intent of judging and appreciating the taste and sensation of it.

While having snakes on your property might be hard to avoid, you definitely don't want them entering your home again.Snakes like cool and dark places, so you should seal any entrances to your basement with diameters that are larger than a quarter inch in diameter. They also could be entering through loose window frames or door sweeps, so you can make sure those are securely fastened. Any vents or drains that lead into your home can be covered with screening, so that the snakes cannot pass through. If you have birds in your backyard or a rodent problem in your home, you may be attracting snakes onto your property. It's often hard, however, to get rid of small mammals who are native to the area, especially those who are part of your ecosystem. Snakes love mice and rats. Because our buildings are made mainly out of timber, rodents often find shelter in the space between the exterior and interior walls. If you hear scratching noises or find evidence of mouse trails in your kitchen, get an expert to solve the problem. Remember, no mice, no snakes!  Leaving out your pet food can also attract mice which will, in turn, attract snakes. Cover up your pet food when they aren't eating, or bring the food inside A mouse can easily get through a hole the size of a pencil. If there are holes in your walls, fill them immediately.High-pitched sound devices are now becoming a popular way to discourage vermin from entering homes; evidence shows some positive results. Remember, snakes always follow their food source. Whether or not you are attracting them intentionally, birds inhabiting your yard will attract snakes. Bird feeders will not only attract birds into your area, but also mice and rats, who will feed on any fallen seed. While snakes might not be interested in the seed itself, they will be interested in the animals that feed on it.  Natural bird repellents are rarely effective, and you don't want to be poisoning any birds or snakes in your area.If you want to remove birds from your yard, you should start by filling any...

While heat styling can make your hair look fabulous, it also strips the moisture from your locks. That’s why it’s an especially bad idea when your hair is fried. Try to limit your use of curling irons, flat irons, and even blow dryers as much as possible. Let your hair air dry when you wash it, and play up your hair’s natural texture rather than curling or straightening it.  When you do heat style your hair, always use a heat protectant first to limit the damage to your locks. Cream or lotion heat protectant formulas are best for coarse or thick hair. Sprays work better for fine or thin hair. Use curlers or bobby pins to create fun looks without the heat. When your hair is fried, it’s often the result of bleaching or other coloring treatments. While occasional coloring treatments won't hurt, avoid using bleach as much as possible. Make changes to your color slowly by gradually adding color instead of suddenly switching to a new shade. If your hair is damaged, the damage may be worsened by drying it with towels or sleeping on linen or cotton pillow cases. To avoid this, use a microfiber towel when drying or wrapping your hair. Switch to silk pillow cases.

While honey bees can create hives in all sorts of spaces, most naturally occurring hives don’t respond well to having honey harvested from them.  Store bought hives are designed to allow you to collect the honey with minimal effect on the honey bees.  Langstroth Hives are the most commonly used in the beekeeping industry because they provide movable frames that won’t interfere with the bees inside when removed. Langstroth Hives will not stick together because they were designed to provide passage for the bees in the gaps between the movable pieces. Top Bar Hives are designed to be more shallow and sit higher for people who have trouble bending over and may be a good choice for people with back issues. Ware Hives are shaped a bit like a house and can be difficult to manage large colonies in, but are great for small hives. You can keep one colony in most typical sized housing lots.  While many people think that means their backyard may be big enough to house a hive of honey bees, there are some other things you will need to consider before placing your hive.  Find out if there are any zoning requirements for keeping a bee colony in your local area. Make sure no one in your family has a bee allergy. Let your neighbors know about your hive to see what concerns they may have about their families or health. You will want to keep your honey bee hive off of the ground to make it easier to access and prevent the wood from rotting.  A good hive stand will stand about eighteen inches off the ground to protect the hives from wild animals as well.  A typical hive stand is made of treated 2x4 pieces of lumber laid across stacked cement or concrete blocks. Consider putting down mulch, gravel or stones under your hive stands to limit the mud you will have to deal with. Honey bees are not the most aggressive species of bee, but their sting can still be quite painful.  You will need to purchase honey beekeeping protective equipment to prevent them from stinging you as you check on them and harvest the honey.  A simple hat and...

While human pupils dilate and constrict in response to light or darkness, a parakeet's pupils can change in size as a physical reaction to the bird's mood and environment. Flashing (the widening of the pupils) and pinning (the narrowing of the pupils) are controlled by the bird, and typically indicate excitement or pleasure, though these behaviors can also be an indication of fear or anxiety. If your parakeet's eyes flash and pin when he sees you, it is most likely an indication that he likes you and values your company. Hanging upside down is a common practice for birds. It is typically done when birds are happy and feel safe, as the position tends to leave the bird vulnerable. If your bird hangs upside down in your presence, it may be a sign that he likes you and trusts you. Parakeets use their beaks for a variety of purposes, from physical tasks to conveying messages. If your bird is performing any of the following activities, it is typically a sign of happiness and comfort around you.  Grinding the beak, left to right in the same way that people grind their teeth, is a sign of happiness in parakeets.  Mouthing with the beak, without actually biting, is one way parakeets play with one another. If your bird is gently mouthing you with his beak, without actually trying to bite you, it is probably a sign of affection.  Regurgitating in front of or "at" a person is a sign of tremendous affection. This is particularly true if your parakeet displays signs of eye pinning and head bobbing immediately before regurgitating.

While iTunes can play most protected audio files, you will be unable to recover unprotected versions through iTunes Match if the music is old enough or if you didn't purchase it to begin with. You can use a work-around by burning the protected music to a CD and then ripping the CD to MP3 in iTunes. There are a few caveats, however:  You'll need to be authorized to play the protected M4P files in iTunes in the first place in order to burn it to a CD. There will be a small drop in quality. You'll want to use a CD-RW if possible if you have a lot of files to convert, otherwise you'll need a lot of blank CD-Rs. You can reuse a CD-RW up to 1000 times, which can be a lifesaver for large libraries. Make sure that this is a new, blank, CD-RW-type CD. If you're using a computer without a DVD drive, you'll need to buy an external USB DVD drive for your computer before you can proceed. Its app icon resembles a multicolored musical note on a white background. Click the Kind tab above your music library list to do so. If you don't see the Kind tab, do the following to make it appear:  Right-click the sorting options bar at the top of your iTunes library. Check the Kind option. Look for files with "M4P" listed in the Kind column; any M4P file is a protected iTunes file. Hold down Ctrl (or ⌘ Command on a Mac) while clicking each song that you want to convert. Right-click one of the selected songs, select Add to Playlist in the drop-down menu, click New Playlist, and type in a name for the playlist. It's in the upper-right side of the playlist's page. A drop-down menu will appear. It's in the drop-down menu. Doing so prompts a pop-up window to appear. Check the "MP3 CD" box, then click Burn at the bottom of the window. Your playlist's music will begin burning onto the CD. This may take several minutes. Once the CD finishes burning, you can proceed with converting the music. . Once you've created the CD, you should be able to open the CD inside of iTunes, select the contents of the CD, and create MP3 versions of the music on...

While in a bath or shower, exfoliate your skin at least once a week using a loofa, face cloth, shower puff, etc.  Exfoliation helps to remove the top layer of dead and dry skin cells, which when left as is, prevent your moisturizer from penetrating into your skin deep enough. When in a shower or bath, use soaps and body washes that contain moisturizer to wash your body.  The labels for soaps and body washes will indicate if they contain moisturizing ingredients. One option is to apply oil to your skin while in the shower or bath, and then rinse off as much as you can before getting out.  This moisturizes you skin nicely, but removes the excess oil so it doesn't stain your clothes or feel slippery. Whether you're washing your hands, or having a shower or bath, use warm water and not really hot water.  Unfortunately hot water can actually accelerate how quickly your skin ages and dries it out faster than warm water. If you've ever swam in a swimming pool or bathed in a hot tub, you probably noticed how dry your skin was afterwards.  This dryness was caused by the chemicals used in the water to remove bacteria (as the water is used over and over again).  Most city treated water also has chemicals added to reduce bacteria, although in much smaller amounts.  However long exposure to that water can still cause your skin to dry out, so it's best to keep your showers and baths as short as you can. Many products — other than specifically designed body moisturizers — can help hydrate your skin.  For example, you can use coconut or olive oil, instead of moisturizer, to get the same, or even better, results.  If you decide to use an oil rather than a moisturizer, remember to wipe off excess oil with a towel after it's been applied to your skin. Also keep in mind that some oil may stain the clothes you put on over top of your skin.  Because of this, it is best to apply oils before bed, under your pyjamas. Try out body butter for another natural, oil-based moisturizer.

While in the shower, rub a piece of lemon or lime over the skin that most likely has deposits of vapors from cooking such as hands, face, and arms. The acidity in lime will help to break down the essential oils that cause the lingering curry smell. Finish by washing with soap and water as usual.  Be sure to avoid open cuts or wounds on the skin as this can cause painful stinging or burning. Avoid putting on any of the same clothing articles that were used while cooking, for instance a hat or sweater. You can try using air diffusers, air deodorizing sprays, plug-ins, or scented candles. Also of great use are air fresheners that allow you to spray on fabrics. Spray all items that are in the cooking vicinity until damp, such as the carpet, upholstery, drapes or walls.  A combination of many products will work well. Be sure to carefully read instructions on the packaging label to ensure proper use. Put two cups of water in a pot on the stove and bring it to a boil. Add fragrant materials such as Kewra (Screwpine) leaves or vanilla beans/extract, and turn the heat down to a simmer. Allow it to simmer for at least one hour. The smell emitted will mask the lingering curry odor.  Screwpine leaves are also known as pandan leaves and can be purchased at the local Asian grocer or specialty grocery store.  There are no set specifications on how much screwpine or vanilla you should add. Try a few sprigs to begin with and add as needed. You can also try boiling other fragrant ingredients you have to get rid of the smell, such as 3 cups (720 mL) of white vinegar, 1 cup (240 mL) of water, and 6 cinnamon sticks. Open the windows for a day or two to allow fresh air to permeate through the residence. You may also need to replace filters in your heating or cooling systems so they don’t circulate odorous air.

While it can be a blow to your pride, you should understand that you are responsible for the grade you have received. Conflicts with professors can happen, and external factors can affect your grade, but in most situations, you have to realize that if you want to improve, you have to act. Realize that bad things unfortunately happen in life. While getting a bad grade may put you in full panic mode, you have to put the situation into perspective in order to get to that Zen place. Do you have your health? Do you have a family who loves you and friends who rally around you? Count your blessings. Remember that while grades are important, they aren’t the only thing that should matter in your life. When you are upset, it is all right to discuss it with a friend or family member. Do not feel as though you have to keep it to yourself. It is understandable if you are concerned about disappointing your parents, ruining your GPA, or making a bad impression on your professors. Know that you can pull through this and that you can find support.  You can even book an appointment with your college's mental health counselors (often known as the Campus and Psychological Services or CAPS). These are trusted professionals who are trained to help stressed out and upset college students. Do not go on the internet and write your complaints online. These can be seen by other students, college officials, or possibly your professors. There can be many consequences from this. Talk in private to a friend or counselor. While you may be stressed out, now is not the time to neglect your well-being. Get ice cream with a friend, watch a movie, or take a bubble bath. Do an activity that relaxes you. The goal is not to run away from the bad grade but to put yourself in a mental state where you can deal with it. Once you are relaxed, look back over your grade. You are more than your grades. Good grades can give you great validation, but you should not let bad grades make you feel worthless.  A bad grade does not mean you are stupid or that you...

While it can be surprising to encounter a snake while weeding your garden or walking around your yard, having a snake around isn't necessarily a bad thing. In fact, you should be proud - a good snake population in an area is a sign that the ecosystem there is healthy. In addition, snakes play an important role in keeping other pests, like mice and rats, from taking over. So if a snake isn't eating your chicken's eggs or otherwise being a bother, consider sharing your yard with it instead of trapping it and moving it elsewhere.  Rat snakes and gopher snakes are especially beneficial to have around. They're as good as cats for keeping the rodent population down.  King snakes go one step further and eat rattlesnakes. In fact, if you get rid of a king snake, the rattlesnakes are more likely to move in - and then you'll have a much more serious problem on your hands. If you don't like snakes, a great way to keep them away is to make your yard less snake-friendly. Snakes hang out in areas that are a little unkempt and wild. They like tall grass, brush piles, wood piles, and other sources of shelter. To make your yard less inviting, do the following:  Mow the lawn regularly. Get rid of piles of rocks, leaves, brush, bricks, or anything else that a snake could use as shelter. Keep your rodent population down by cleaning up acorns, sealing your trash, and removing other sources of food for rodents. If you've been finding snakes in your attic or basement, look for cracks and holes that might be letting them in. Make sure the doors and windows are sealed around the edges. Screen the chimney, vents, and any other spots that could serve as an entryway for a snake. Snake experts seem to agree that most repellents aren't effective, but they might be worth a try if you've exhausted other ideas. Try putting one of the following substances in your garden, chicken coop or wherever you have a snake problem:  Spray a solution made with fox urine around the perimeter of your property. Some say that snakes are deterred by the smell...

While it is best to make the juice in small batches so that it does not go bad, it will be helpful to have extra onions on hand for when you need to make the next batch. Peel it off using your fingers, or you can cut the onions into chunks, which often helps the skin come off easily. You have three options for doing this, based on what kind of kitchen appliances and tools you already own:  A juicer: Cut the onion in small chunks and feed them through the juicer. A blender or food processor: Cut the onion into about four chunks and process the chunks in the blender or food processor. Strain the mixture through a metal strainer or cheesecloth over a bowl so that only the juice remains. A grater: Cut the onion in half and run each half over the grater. Strain the grated onion through a cheesecloth over a bowl to extract the juice. Fresh, pure onion juice is potent and can cause a reaction if you are allergic. Do not proceed with the rest of the steps if you are allergic. Carefully pour the juice over your scalp, and then use your fingertips to massage it into your scalp. Adding the massage gives the process extra power to stimulate your hair follicles. In order to achieve the best results, the onion juice needs to sit on your scalp for at least a half an hour. Once the time is up, shampoo and condition your hair as usual to remove the onion smell. It is recommended to repeat this method three times per week for best results within a couple of months.

While it is essential that players are physically ready to play a basketball games, it is also important that players are mentally prepared to compete. Since everyone struggles in different ways, there is no “right” way to mentally prepare for a basketball game. General strategies, which you may adopt and adapt to meet your needs, include:  Relax your mind to relax your body. When your mind's at ease, your body is less tense. You can use meditation to clear your mind of negative and/or stressful thoughts. Before a game, find a quiet place to sit. Once comfortable, close your eyes and take the next 10 to 20 minutes to just focus on breathing in and out. As thoughts come into your head, acknowledge them and then let them pass. Stop overthinking. Don't focus on the mechanics of shooting a basketball during your game—just shoot it! You can work to improve your shot during practice. Stop being afraid of failure. Fear leads to anxiety, which causes our bodies to tense up and our minds to second guess every decision. Instead of focusing on potential failures, practice radical acceptance—acknowledge that everyone, even professional basketball players, miss shots and plays. Get in your “zone.” Your “zone” is your sweet spot, where everything just feels right. In order to enter your zone, you must clear your head and focus on the task at hand. This is easier to achieve if you are on top of your schoolwork, tasks at work, and or responsibilities at home. When you manage your time well, you can just focus on the game instead of thinking about everything you have to get done when the final buzzer sounds. A light jog, followed by some stretching, will prepare your body for the physical exertion to come. This portion of the warm-up may be done as a team or independently. You can jog and stretch in an auxiliary gym or hallways.  Jog for 5 to 10 minutes. During the jog, you should only break a little sweat. Once your muscles are loose from the jog, stretch them out. Basic stretches include: Wall Lat Stretch: Stand 2 to 3 feet...

While it is great to spend time with a girl you like, it is still important to make time for your own interests. Make sure that you do not stop doing the things that you love in order to spend time with a girl. She will be more attracted to you if she sees that you have a great life and that you are independent than if you need to be around her to feel happy. Being a good listener is crucial if you want to get a girl to fall for you. To show that you are listening to her, maintain eye contact and say neutral things like, “Yes,” “I see,” and “Go on.” Make sure that you repeat back what she has said now and then to show that you have been listening to her. Your unique qualities may help you to get a girl to fall for you as well. Think about what your best traits are and look for ways to put them on display. For example, if you are an athlete, invite her to one of your games. If you play guitar in a band, invite her to come to one of your concerts. If you are an avid reader, strike up a conversation about books with her. Demonstrating how supportive and encouraging you can be may also convince her that you are worthy of her love. Do little things to show her what a great guy you are before you even go on your first date. For example, you can cheer her on at one of her games, high five her for acing an exam, or congratulate her for getting promoted at her job. Look for little ways that you can offer your encouragement and she will be grateful. While some girls are attracted to bad boys, a kind, considerate guy makes a much better boyfriend. Make sure that you demonstrate your boyfriend qualities to her before you even have your first date. Use good table manners, open doors for her, and be kind to others.

While it is important to have a good relationship with your younger brother, you need time for yourself as well. Tell him kindly that you need time for yourself every day. When asking for space, do so very gently. It may be difficult for your little brother to understand that you can love him and still want some space from him. Your parents might not understand that you are older now, and need some more privacy. Talk to them about your needs. Together you can create ways to find distance and avoid conflict with your younger brother. Physical distance will help you feel more independent and more appreciative of your brother's presence when you are home.  Look for after-school activities. Your school or local community center probably has after school art classes, sports teams, or drama productions. Ask your teachers and parents about ways to spend time outside of the house. If you share a room with your younger brother, create a space somewhere else in the house that is yours. Start doing your homework in the kitchen or on the couch. You might not have your own room, but creating a regular space to work or read can help you feel more independent in your home. The local library is a great, safe space to spend time outside of your family. Talk to your parents about spending time there after school or on the weekends.

While it is incredibly exciting to bring a new puppy home, it is also very important that you decide the different duties each family member will play in training your puppy, and the rules you will have for you puppy. Discipline is key-and not just for your pup.  For example, if you have decided that your puppy should sleep in a crate until house trained, do not let anyone allow the puppy to sleep in its bed the first few nights. The puppy needs clear rules from the first day it arrives at your home. You’ll want to make the rules easy to follow. For example, if you don't want the puppy upstairs, put up a stair gate. If you don’t want a dog begging for food at the table, never feed a puppy food from your plate. Remember not to scold the puppy too much or his/her trust in you will go down It is nearly impossible to train a puppy without some kind of reward involved. Most puppies respond well to food rewards. However, be aware that when training with food rewards, or "treats," you should use small treats, even pieces of regular dog food work!   Feeding large treats each time you give a reward will soon make your dog unhealthy and overweight. Use high value treats for new work, for example turkey is very healthy for dogs, and lower value foods, like a piece of dog food, when doing re-training work. Some puppies respond better to toys. You can reward a dog that loves fetching by throwing the ball each time he does something correct, or another dog by playing a quick game of tug-of-war. However, toy rewards take up more time, can get the puppy too excited and wound up to train, or may get boring after a while. Toys work especially well for agility training, although agility cannot be trained until 18 months of age because puppy joints and bones can’t handle this type of training. Different breeds of dogs are very different, so it would be a good idea to read up on your breed to know what to expect. Each breed needs specific training in order to thrive, so make sure you know what the specific needs of your dog are....

While it is normal to lose blood through your discharge, it is not normal to lose an excessive amount of it. Because of this, it is important to monitor your blood loss by looking at the perineal pads your doctor will recommend that you wear. What to look for will be discussed in this section.  You should use pads instead of tampons for a couple of reasons. The first is that pads will help you keep track of your blood loss much more easily than tampons will. The second is that tampons can introduce new bacteria into your vagina, making it more likely that you will get an infection. Do not use scented pads because the chemicals that make them smell nice can increase your chances of infection. The color of your discharge will change as times passes after you have given birth. As discussed in the introduction, you should only really have to deal with discharge for six weeks after you give birth. There are three kinds of discharges (which are also called lochia) that should appear in the following order:   2 to 4 days after childbirth: Lochia Rubra is a bright red vaginal discharge with a fleshy smell. It is made up of blood, decidua, and other debris from the uterus.  4 to 10 days after childbirth: Lochia serosa appears to be brownish-pink because it consist old blood, leukocytes, and other tissue debris.  10 to 14 days after childbirth, lasting for 6 weeks: Lochia Alba is a creamy white vaginal discharge that consists of leukocytes, mucus, epithelial cells, and bacteria. We have just covered the normal stages of your discharge. If, at any point, your discharge becomes thick, yellow, and has a bad smell, it is an indication that you have an infection in your reproductive system. Go to the hospital right away so that you can get started on antibiotics. The antibiotics used will be covered in Method Four. When monitoring your discharge after childbirth, it’s important to keep track of how long you can wear a pad before you have to change it (because this will give you an idea of how much you are bleeding)....

While it is possible that fainting spells are not related to medical conditions, it is also possible that they are a sign of a medical problem. To determine this, you will need to visit your doctor. You should see your doctor immediately if you experience fainting while exercising, if fainting occurs with rapid heartbeat, or if your family has a history of fainting. If you experience repeated fainting spells, you should consult your doctor. Your doctor will ask a number of questions to determine the cause of your fainting. These may include the situation you find yourself in when you faint, how long the episodes last, how quickly it takes you to return to normal, and any other symptoms you may experience during the episodes. The doctor may also order a number of tests to determine the cause of your fainting spells.  An electrocardiogram will be ordered if the doctor suspects a heart condition is the cause. An electroencephalogram will be ordered if the doctor suspects something in the brain is the cause. There is a chance that your doctor will not recommend any medication for your fainting spells. There is no medicine that treats fainting spells themselves, so your doctor may instead prescribe a medicine to treat the cause of the fainting spells. These may include medicine for low blood sugar, seizures, anemia, or low blood pressure. If any medications are prescribed, be sure to take them exactly as your doctor advises.

While it is recommended you try to stick to a regular sleeping schedule, it's especially important to do so the night before a big game. The competition will be stiff enough, so it's not worth it losing your edge just because you weren't willing to sleep at least 8 hours. If you are having troubles getting to sleep, try some deep breathing exercises or meditating. While it wouldn't be regularly recommended in a diet, athletes should load up on their carbohydrate intake. Carbs essentially give your body energy, and you'll need lots of energy if you're playing a sports competition.  Stay away from sugar for a few hours before a big competition. Sugar and starches dehydrate your body. That is something you want to avoid in the midst of competing.  Keep yourself up to pace with snacks. Longer matches will be a test of endurance, and something as simple as an energy bar or banana can make a big difference. Warm ups are important for any physically strenuous activity. They can be fairly light, but a proper warm up will help prevent early exhaustion and injury. Aim to warm up around half an hour before the start of the game. Stretch out your arms and legs. Run in place. Work up a bit of a sweat. This will get your body in the right mode for the competition. Warm ups also help fight off anxiety. Pre-game anxiety can be an issue for some players, so you should keep that in mind if it's something you suffer from. Having a good idea what to expect with the opposing side is important, regardless whether you're going one on one or playing as a team. If you want to know which techniques you should be using in the midst of certain competitors, it's a good idea to study their methods in the days and weeks before a big game. If there is any footage of those players during a game, give it a shot. The science of analytics turns the respective skills of your teammates and competitors into a sharp formula. Matching each player to their best strengths is integral to a team's success. Professional sports analysts make it their...

While it is still unclear why children begin grinding their teeth, it is thought that bruxism could be caused by your child’s baby teeth coming in. When your child’s baby teeth come in, it might cause them to feel irritation, which may lead to teeth grinding. Intervention is not usually required when your child grinds his or her baby teeth. However, it may help to develop a relaxing routine before bed to keep your child from grinding (see Method 1 for more information). Your child’s dentist may recommend getting him a mouthguard, also known as an occasional splint or night guard, to protect your child’s teeth. When your child grinds his/her teeth, he can actually wear his teeth down and damage his/her enamel. The guard is made of silicon rubber, which acts as a shield to keep the upper and lower molars from grinding against each other. Submerge the mouthguard in water during the day to keep it clean. Try to clean it with a toothbrush every one to two days. Caffeine can alter your child’s sleep schedule because it blocks the formation of a chemical called adenosine. This chemical helps to make you feel relaxed, which in turn can help you sleep better. Avoid giving your child caffeinated products like:  Sodas. Energy drinks. Chocolate. Coffee. When your child grinds his teeth at night, it is important that he/she does not chew on anything that can damage his teeth further during the day. If you notice your child chewing on his/her nails, pencils, or pens, help him to break these habits. You can read about how to help your child get over these habits  here. Chewing gum causes your jaws to clench. This jaw clenching can become subconscious, which can make your child’s teeth grinding become worse. Help your child to stay away from gum while he/she works through his bruxism. If your child is old enough to be conscious of his/her jaw clenching and teeth grinding, show him how to stop doing those actions when he/she becomes aware of them. To do this, tell him to place the tip of his/her tongue between his/her teeth...

While it is uncertain how many food groups affect skin care, there is a general consensus that a diet high in fruits and vegetables can improve the look of your skin and reduce the effects of aging. Foods like chocolate, soda, fried meats, and chips can aggravate skin conditions like acne. While there is no agreement on whether or not these foods cause acne, there does seem to be a link between acne outbreaks and an increase of fat intake. Especially for people with rosacea and eczema, dairy products may cause flare ups of redness and breakouts. While you do not need to cut out dairy entirely, you should reduce your daily intake of dairy products—especially products like ice cream that contain high levels of sugar and fat. There are several vitamins that can improve the health and appearance of your skin. You can either take these as supplements or eat foods rich in these vitamins.  Vitamin A can help decrease acne caused by oil build-ups. You can find vitamin A in fish oil, carrots, spinach, and broccoli. Zinc can calm your skin and regulate oil production. Zinc is found in turkey, almonds, and wheat germ. Vitamin E can heal scars and reduce redness. Vitamin E is found in sweet potatoes, olive oil, avocados, and leafy green vegetables.

While it is understandable that caring parents would be concerned about bad things happening to their children, worrying too much can be extremely damaging. The first thing you need to do if you want to stop being a helicopter parent is to relax and accept the fact that you will never be capable of protecting your children from all of the dangers in the world. This may be easier said than done, so a good first step is to stop letting your kids know that you are worried about them. Try to avoid constantly asking them questions about whether they can handle things or how they are coping. This is likely to create anxiety for them. Kids who are too confined to "safe spaces" miss out on many developmental opportunities. If you want your children to learn how to navigate the world, they need to be able to step out of their comfort zones sometimes.  This may mean allowing them to try skateboarding, even though they might fall and scrape a knee. It may also mean allowing them to go out for a short time without your supervision. It's fine to protect your children from taking big risks. For example, if your child wants to ride his bike on the highway, it's reasonable for you to intervene. If you teach your kids about how to protect themselves from dangers, you should feel much better about allowing them to take risks. For example, you may teach your children how to safely cross a street, or to always wear a helmet when riding a bike. There's nothing wrong with wanting to keep an eye on your children to make sure they're safe. After all, there are real dangers in the world that you need to protect them from! Luckily, you can keep an eye on them without being a helicopter parent; simply take a few steps back and give them a little extra space. It helps if they don't know that you are always watching. This works best for younger children, especially when they are playing with their peers, like at a playground. As your children get older, you may have to let them out of your sight more often. If your children are older,...

While it is wholly natural and safe to use, eucalyptus oil can be be a mild irritant to people who suffer from sensitive skin. To remedy this, add a few drops of eucalyptus oil to roughly an ounce of a non-irritating oil like olive, coconut or sesame oil. You can then enjoy the benefits of the eucalyptus oil without the uncomfortable side effects.  Essential oils like eucalyptus and are astringent, meaning they enhance the tightness and firmness of skin, but may cause redness, stinging or itchiness in high concentrations. Oils like olive and coconut are also known for their ability to moisturize skin and hair, making the mixture doubly effective. Rather than saturating your beard with excessive oil, use a conservative amount and focus on spreading the oil more evenly throughout your facial hair. Take a few extra minutes to stroke and comb your beard with your fingers until the hair is covered with a light coating of oil. Use more oil only as needed.  For better coverage, work single drops of oil through one section of your beard at a time. Your beard should not glisten or feel matted or heavy after you’ve treated it with oil. After half an hour has elapsed, splash some cool water over the lower half of your face to remove oil lingering on the skin. If necessary, scrub your beard again using a mild conditioning soap approved for facial hair. You won’t have to worry about washing away the oil, as it will have already been absorbed into the follicles.  Dry your beard and face with a towel. Leaving your skin damp for too long can cause irritation to worsen. Cold water will help your pores contract, preventing other possible irritants from getting in.

While it may be desirable to correct the issue non-surgically, for some people surgery is a good option. Newer methods can do so without severing the milk ducts, making it possible to breastfeed after the procedure. Your doctor or plastic surgeon can help you decide whether you are a good candidate for corrective surgery.  This is a short outpatient procedure involving local anesthesia. You can go home the same day, and, because it is minimally invasive, you will probably be able to return to your routine (work, etc.) the following day. Discuss the procedure with your surgeon. Inform yourself about how the procedure is performed, and what results you can expect. At this time your surgeon will examine your medical history and assess the underlying cause of your condition. Your surgeon will inform you about how to prepare for surgery and what to do afterwards. You will likely have surgical dressings on your nipple after the operation. Change these dressings if and as instructed by your surgeon. Recovery should be relatively painless. If you experience unexpected bruising, swelling, or discomfort during recovery, contact your surgeon immediately. These visits assess the progress of your healing and the success of the procedure. Ask your surgeon when you should come in for your follow-up.

While it may be difficult to change your environment, understand that certain environmental cues can actually lead to higher rates of smoking. You may want to limit time around social groups that revolve around smoking. Instead, find new places and activities to enjoy. If you enjoy having a few drinks and smoking on the patio at a local bar, you might find it hard to sit on the patio and not smoke. In this case, try moving inside where smoking is not allowed. This will add a level of inconvenience to smoking since you’ll have to leave the group you are with to go outside. Give yourself the rule: no smoking in the car. Smoke before or after the car ride. Make smoking as inconvenient and uncomfortable as possible. While this isn't an overwhelming change, changing brands may help you reduce your nicotine intake. For example, if you smoke Marlboro Red 100’s, try switching to shorts or to a more “natural” brand of cigarettes like Sherman’s. Do not let the word “natural” make you think these cigarettes are safe. They are most definitely cigarettes which still contain nicotine. Look for cigarettes based on their nicotine content, which are generally:  low-nicotine: filtered cigarettes with the words "Ultra Light" medium nicotine: filtered cigarettes with the words "Light" or "Mild" high nicotine: filtered or unfiltered cigarettes that don't say "Light" or "Ultra Light" Another way to reduce cigarette smoking is by smoking a quarter or half of a cigarette. Then wait until your next cigarette break to smoke the second half or quarter. This way, you smoke as often as you normally do, but only half a cigarette at a time. You still get to take your smoking breaks, but it cuts your cigarette consumption in half. If you tend to chain smoke in certain settings like a bar or while sitting outside chatting with friends, try setting a timer. It can be easy to lose track and just light another cigarette when you are having a good time. After each cigarette, set a timer on your phone for a time limit of your choosing. Wait until...

While it may be tempting to rehash old arguments, once you're friends, it's time to let it go. You don't have a right to criticize how he spends his time or how she likes to dress. Be supportive, and try not to move into old patterns of criticism. Talk through your feelings with the other person and then try your best to move on. That is, if you were friends before you got together, think about how you interacted then. That can help you forge ahead with a new relationship. Don't jump into going out three times a week. Stick with a couple a times a month at first. Too much too quickly could force the friendship to break apart. If you try to do the same things you always did as a couple, you're likely to find it awkward. You associate those places with the romantic side of the relationship, and you're trying to create a different type of relationship. Therefore, it's best to pick new things to do together, especially things that won't leave you alone together. Try going out with a group of friends, for instance, or heading to somewhere with a big crowd, such as big concert. You don't have the same conversations with a lover that you do with a friend. If you want to keep your ex at a friendship level, you need to keep the conversations there, too.  Focus on general topics such as current world news instead of very personal ones like your dog passing away. " Your ex may decide he or she doesn't want to be friends with you, and that's fine. Sometimes, you just have too much history with a person to move on in a different capacity. If you're constantly having to deal with questions about why you're still friends with the person, it can hinder your friendship. Tell your friends and family that you are going to be friends with the person, and you expect them to support that decision.

While it may be tempting to sit out when given the opportunity, you’d be surprised how important participating can be. Trying something new requires courage, and showing people that you’re open to activities will not only show them that you have confidence, but encourage others to join with you. Even if it seems like everyone isn’t interested in doing something, it may be that they simply don’t want to be the first one to volunteer. Break the ice by volunteering first if you’re comfortable with it. Bring along some card games, magazines with quizzes, or other multiplayer activities to do on the bus. Unless other people came with a friend, the odds are high that they’re just as bored as you are. The bus can be an excellent place to make new friends. Always ask if a seat is taken before sitting down next to someone. Some people prefer to sit by themselves. Don’t take it personally! Don’t worry if you don’t know the rules. Many people enjoy teaching others. If you let people show you how to do things, they’ll know that you’re open to playing different games with them in the future. Be willing to teach other people games that you know. People will appreciate the invitation to play even if they don’t want to. If you’re allowed to have your phone at camp, try to stay off of your cell phone during the gaps between activities. People will think that you’re trying to avoid socializing if you’re staring at your screen all day. Don’t leave your phone at home if you can bring it with you. You may need it to exchange numbers with the people that you meet!

While it may be unavoidable, large family gatherings usually require a large space. Get away from any rude family members by simply changing locations. Be polite and greet him with a handshake and a smile; you're not obligated to engage in anything more.  Stay out of earshot. Even if you change locations, you may still be able to hear something infuriating. Be sure to move into a room where his  voice will be muffled or close the door of the room he is in. If it is a family member that you will see everyday like your sibling, schedule yourself to limit your time with him. For example, join extra-curricular activities after school so you won't have to be at dinner with your rude younger brother. Many times rude people are simply trying to get attention by eliciting a reaction. If you know what topics she enjoys evoking, avoid them by bridging to a more neutral conversation that won't require her opinion or reaction.  For example, steer clear of her political views and talk about topics that you know she enjoys and remains positive about like her recent home improvements. Say something like, “That is a difficult issue that I'd like to read more about before I place my vote. Speaking of reading, I read an article on how to build a really great deck. How long did it take you to build yours?” If it is a family member that you have to interact with every day, keep cordial. Talk about common interests or dislikes to form a bond. Depending on the size of the family gathering, there may be opportunities to break away and start an activity. Large family gatherings may need people to help supervise children, prepare the meal, or clean the location. Delegating a job that he enjoys will keep him occupied.  For example, ask for help with your car, home renovation tips, or playing sports with the kids. Be careful not to include him in an activity where he could offend more people. If you ask him to participate in activity with a lot of social interaction, you could be fueling a volatile situation. Keep busy around the house...

While it may feel easy and gratifying to let your anger out, think before saying your words. Collect your thoughts before speaking in order to prevent yourself from saying something you may regret or that may hurt your partner. If you feel like reacting to something your partner did or said, this is a good time to take a step back and collect your thoughts. Focusing on your breath can help calm both your body and your mind and thus relieve your anger. Using deep breathing can separate you from the situation and your feelings of immediate anger and help you focus inward.  Practice deep breathing when you are in a naturally calm state. Then, try it when you are angry or upset, and notice how it helps you achieve calm. Once you start feeling anger come, take a moment to do some breathing to calm yourself before exploding. In order for breathing to calm you, you must breathe from your diaphragm, not your chest. When you breathe from your diaphragm, you should be able to feel your stomach rising and falling (not your shoulders). When practicing, you can place your hand on your stomach to feel the movement. If you’re having a hard time with your anger, use a word or phrase to remind yourself to keep your composure. Using a word or phrase can help keep you on track and not let your emotions get the best of you.  Say to yourself, “relax,” or “I am calm,” or “chill.” Especially if you feel your anger rising, use a word to keep it at bay. It’s possible to express what you’re feeling calmly, even when you feel angry. Aim to focus on expressing your own wants, needs, and feelings without assigning blame, guilt, or hurt to your partner. Use your opportunities to speak by expressing yourself and not  attacking your partner. Use “I” statements instead of “you” statements.  For instance, instead of saying, “You make me so angry” say, “I feel really angry when you say that.” Owning your own feelings empowers you and doesn’t place blame on your partner. If you’re having a difficult time controlling your anger, tell your...
