Q: Most aerobic machines will stop when you stop, but some, such as a treadmill, will not. Most people play music, watch TV or just listen to the sound of their breathing while they use an aerobic machine. Talk is distracting. If you stop suddenly, you may lose your balance when you get off the machine.
A: Read the instructions carefully. Ensure you know how to turn the machine off quickly if you run into trouble. Start slowly and increase your speed once you're comfortable with the movement. Resist the temptation to talk to the person next to you. Decrease speed over several minutes at the end of your workout to allow your body time to cool down. Use your gym towel to clean your sweat off the machine. Limit your workout to 30 minutes if all the machines are in use, other members are waiting to use a machine or if the fitness center is crowded.

Q: You can fill a small sachet with herbs to help your child sleep. Simply fill a small cloth bag or small pillow case with the following herbs, tie it off, and place it next to your child's pillow: 1/2 cup hops 1/2 cup chamomile flowers 1/2 cup lavender flowers 1/2 cup lemon balm (melissa) Help your child relax by running a warm (but not too hot) bath or filling a basin for a foot soak. Add one to two drops of chamomile essential oil or lavender essential oil into the water. These can calm your child and encourage sleep. Avoid using essential oils for infants under three months old. Create a massaging balm by mixing one to two drops of chamomile or lavender essential oil with 1 ounce of shea or castor oil. Mix the balm well and place a small amount of the scented oil on your child's temples. Massage can be useful in calming your child and relaxing sore muscles.
A: Make an herbal sleep sachet. Run a warm herbal bath or footbath. Make an herbal balm.

Q: Make sure you are clear on who the audience is. Consider if they have a knowledge base or are starting completely fresh. This will give you an idea of how broad or specific you need to be throughout the manual. When it makes sense, write directly to the audience saying, "When you get to this step" rather than something like, "When a person gets to this step." If you are training employees on a brand new software that no one has seen, it's safe to assume they won't know anything. If you are training for sales techniques at a clothing store, you don't need to explain what pants and shirts are. Don't patronize people by over explaining simple concepts, but also don't assume they know something that they may not know. Not everyone can learn by reading 20 pages of text, so include ways for users to apply what they read and get hands on experience. Give a scenario and ask the reader to solve a problem of some kind. Allow for discussion and collaboration among trainees. You want to cater to different learning styles so the manual is useful for as many people as possible. You can't fit every employee perfectly, but if you only use one approach you aren't likely to get through to very many at all. The goal of the training manual is to help employees learn what they need to know, so aim to make it easy for as many people as possible. If you are writing a printed manual, consider whether or not you can give trainees access to extra materials, such as videos or audio recordings. For learners who would struggle to read an entire manual, you can work to ensure they still learn what they need to. Many times the written manual will be the primary training tool, but a few extras may make a big difference. This may be affected by the type of content your manual includes and may not be applicable in all cases. Take stock of the specifics of your manual and judge whether or not extra materials could be created.
A: Write for and to your audience. Include problem-solving scenarios and discussion topics. Enhance the manual with videos or audio recordings.

Q: You can help your hair loss by changing your hair routine. Avoid shampooing too often because frequent shampooing can strip the natural oils from your hair. Frequent shampooing doesn't really cause hair loss, but if you are stripping the oils from your hair, it can make the hair more fragile. It is recommended that you only wash your hair two to three times a week. There are some shampoos that are loaded with chemicals. The extra chemicals can be rough on your hair, dry it out, and make your hair loss worse. Try natural shampoos instead that have ingredients that will nourish your hair, not strip the nutrients from it. Avoid using products with ingredients like sodium lauryl sulfate (SLS), parabens, and ammonium chloride, especially if you have thin, fragile, or treated hair. Hair loss might be caused by too much conditioner. Conditioners can weigh down the roots of the hair and damage the hair follicles, which can cause it to break and fall out. Use a conditioner one to two times a week and avoid using conditioner on the scalp. Try a natural conditioner as well, such as Nature's Gate, Babo Botanicals, WEN, and Intelligent Nutrients.
A:
Avoid over-shampooing. Stop using chemical heavy shampoos. Avoid too much conditioner.
