In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Exercise has many health benefits and research has shown that exercise can even improve the way that we feel about our bodies. Find a form of exercise that you enjoy and incorporate it into your lifestyle. Try to get at least 30 minutes of moderate physical activity every day to reap the benefits of exercise. Certain foods, such as those high in carbohydrates and fat, can cause you to become sluggish and negatively affect your mood. Foods that can improve your mood are those that are low in fat and release their energy slowly. These foods give energy for sustained periods of time and do not carry the risk of weight gain, bloating, and irritability; they can also lead to stronger hair and nails that can improve your overall self-image. Not getting enough sleep can affect the way that your body performs as well as your emotions. The combination of these effects may have a negative impact on your attempts to improve your body image. Make sure that you are getting eight hours of sleep per night to feel your best as you work towards a more positive body image. What you wear may also affect the way that you view your body, so it is worthwhile to choose clothes that make you feel good. Make sure that the clothing you wear fits your body well and looks nice. Don't put off buying yourself new clothes until you feel better about your body. Treat yourself to a new outfit to send the message to yourself that you are worth it. A negative body image may make you feel like you don't deserve to take time to relax, but that is not true. Relaxation is an important component of daily life and it may also help you to develop a more positive body image. Make sure that you set aside at least 15 minutes per day to just sit and relax. You can meditate, do some deep breathing exercises, or just sit still with your thoughts.
Summary: Exercise your body. Nourish your body with healthy food. Get plenty of rest. Dress your body well. Relax daily.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Natural oils such as neem and flaxseed make excellent base for ointments. Experiment with different combinations of herbs and oils. Neem oil is an astringent that helps protect your skin. It is commonly used in Ayurvedic (ancient Indian) medicine to treat lipomas. Flaxseed oil has high levels of omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids. Omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids help to reduce inflammation. Be sure to buy flaxseed oil certified to be free of heavy metals, such as lead and mercury. Blend 1 teaspoon of chickweed to 2-3 tablespoons of neem oil or flaxseed oil. Apply the salve to the lipoma. Chickweed is used to reduce fats. You can also use 1-2 tablespoons of cooled green tea instead of neem or flaxseed oil to make a paste. Put 1 teaspoon of turmeric together with 2-3 tablespoons of neem oil or flaxseed oil. Smooth the ointment onto the lipoma. Your skin will turn a bit orange or yellow because of the turmeric. Cover the lipoma with a bandage to protect your clothes. Turmeric, like neem oil, is commonly used in Ayurvedic medicine. For a paste, add 1-2 tablespoons of cooled green tea instead of neem or flaxseed oil to the turmeric. Mix to 1 teaspoon of dried sage with 2-3 tablespoons of neem oil or flaxseed oil. Coat the lipoma with the balm. Substitute 1-2 tablespoons of cooled green tea for neem or flaxseed oil to make a paste. Sage is used in traditional Chinese medicine to dissolve fatty tissue.
Summary: Create an ointment using natural oils and herbs. Mix chickweed with a natural oil or tea base. Try creating an ointment with turmeric. Add dried sage to neem oil or flaxseed oil.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Once you've started to heal the cracks in your skin, your best bet is to start a long term routine to prevent more cracks. Unfortunately, this is a skin problem that is better to focus on preventing then on fixing once it occurs. Whatever moisturizing routine you use, just make sure that it's something you can keep up long-term and use regularly, since this is the best way to prevent future issues. Lanolin, which is a wax-like substance made from wool-producing animals, is nature's best way of protecting skin. Used consistently, you should be able to apply it every other day or every third day and still see the same soft skin. When you first start using it, apply it liberally at night and give it time to soak into your skin. Bag Balm is the most common brand of lanolin product in the US and can be found at most drug stores. If not using lanolin, you'll want to analyze what moisturizing products you do buy. You'll want products with the right kinds of ingredients, to guarantee that you get the right effect. Many moisturizers will include lots of natural, healthy sounding ingredients but they won't actually help your skin very much. You'll want to instead look for these in the ingredients list: Humectants, which draw moisture into your skin. Examples include glycerin and lactic acid. Emollients, which protect your skin. Examples include lanolin, urea, and silicon oils. Every time you bath or expose your cracked skin to water, you're washing away natural oils which protect your skin. Apply at least a light level of moisturizer after every shower, as well as any time you soak your feet. If you can, apply a thick layer of moisturizer before going to bed at night. This will give your feet time to really soak all of that healing product in, while making sure that you're not bothered by squishy skin. Cover your skin thickly in moisturizer and then put on a layer to protect the moisturizer while it soaks in. If the cracks are on your feet, use socks. If the cracks are on your hands, use gloves.
Summary:
Make a long term moisturizing routine. Find a lanolin cream. Look for the right ingredients in other moisturizers. Apply a light layer directly after bathing or soaking. Apply a thick layer of moisturizer at night.
