Problem: Article: You don't need a lot of time to perform breathing exercises, though you can take as much time as you want. The important thing is to make time for calm, relaxing breathing as soon as you notice yourself feeling tense or anxious. It won't take long for you to feel the effects of deep breathing exercises, though you can continue deep breathing for as long as you'd like. Try to find a place where you won't be disturbed. If you can't find a quiet place inside, try sitting outside. When you're ready to begin, you should get into a comfortable position. You can sit on the floor or in a chair, so long as you can keep a straight posture. Sit up straight, keeping your back and neck aligned. Close your eyes. This can help block out distractions and promote a state of relaxation. You may want to put one hand on your belly. This can help you feel your breathing, which can help you recognize whether or not you're breathing deeply. Deep breathing is as simple as taking slow, deep, long inhalations and slow, extended exhalations. You can do it for as long or as short as you need to. Any time your mind wanders back to something stressful, simply focus on your breath. Inhale slowly through your nostrils. Feel your breath travel down into your abdomen to your diaphragm (just below the ribs). Focus on the sensations of breathing deeply, in and out. You should be able to feel your belly rise and fall on each breath with your hand. If you don't feel your breath, you may need to take slower, deeper breaths.
Summary: Set aside five minutes. Get into position. Take deep breaths into your abdomen.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Unlike the original iPod, the iPod Touch, iPad, and iPhone cannot be accessed by your computer as external hard drives. This means that copying music from your iPod Touch to a new computer is not possible without the help of third-party software (or jailbreaking). You can't use iTunes to import the tracks unless you had previously transferred your iTunes library from your old computer to your new one. Connecting your iPod to a new computer will prompt you to erase everything on the iPod. Most of the third-party programs also allow you to transfer files from iPod Classics. Even though you won't be using iTunes to transfer the files, most iPod management programs require iTunes be installed for access to the connection services. Click here for instructions on installing iTunes. There are a large number of programs that will allow you to select music files stored on your iPod Touch and copy them to your computer. Most of these programs cost money, but several have free trials that you can use. Some of the more popular programs include: Sharepod TuneJack iRip iRepo If iTunes is set to auto-sync, hold Shift + Ctrl (Windows) or Command + Option (Mac) while plugging the iPod in to prevent iTunes from automatically syncing and erasing any content on it. Each one will work differently, but they all share the same basic principles. This guide will provide a general overview, so refer to the program's support page for any program-specific issues. Some programs such as iRip will give you the option to quickly import all of the tracks on the iPod into the iTunes library on the new computer. You can also choose to select tracks manually and copy only the selection to the computer. Not all programs will import the copied tracks directly into iTunes. If that's the case, or you want to use the songs in another media player, you'll need to copy them to a location on your computer (such as your Music folder), and then add that folder to your iTunes library. Sometimes the file names of the songs will be changed when copying them off your iPod. iTunes or other media players will still be able to read the metadata information on the songs and properly label them. The import process will likely take a while, especially if you are copying thousands of songs.

SUMMARY: Know what you can and can't do. Install iTunes (if you don't have it). Find and download an iPod management program. Plug your iPod into your computer. Open the manager program you installed. Select the tracks you want to copy to the computer.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Start rolling by folding up the bottom end of the blinds. Then, continue rolling them layer by layer, applying even tension across the width of the blinds. Stop once you reach the halfway point or when you think you have a good enough start. Although you can skip this step if your blinds are short, rolling them partially up by hand will help the blinds roll up evenly. The cord is usually located on the right side of the blinds near the top. At this point, it's important that you don't let the blinds go, as they aren't secure. If you don't hold onto them, they'll unroll again. Your blinds may have a fabric or plastic cord that's used to open and close them. Both types work in the same manner. If you partially rolled your blinds by hand, you'll need to lift the cords that hold the blinds in place, which will still be down where your blinds started. Don't let go of the rolled blinds until these cords reach the bottom of the roll. Once they do, you can take your hand off of the roll and let the cords pick up from there. Some cords consist of 2 pieces, with one controlling each side. If yours is made like this, make sure the cords on both sides are equally tight before you move on. If they aren't, pull the cord that controls the loose side until it's just as tight as the tight side. Apply a light to medium tension as you pull the string so that the blinds don't come up too fast. This will help keep them neat and even as they roll up. Some blinds have an internal mechanism that holds the cord in one spot until you pull on it again. If your blinds have this feature, the cord will stay put automatically when you let go of it, so you don't need to tie off the cord. This is a built-in feature that some blinds have. It works the same way as the cord on mini blinds. Some blinds need to be tied on a hook to keep them from unrolling. If your blinds are like this, make several loops around the hook to keep it secure. If you can, tie the cord in a figure 8 pattern for added security. This hook is sometimes called a "cleat."
Summary:
Pick up the bottom of your blinds and roll them halfway up by hand. Hold the blinds with one hand as you grab the cord. Lift the bottom loops that cradle the blinds by pulling on the cord. Continue pulling the cord until your blinds reach your desired height. Hold your string straight down and let go if your cord locks in place. Tie off the cord on a hook, if you have one.
