INPUT ARTICLE: Article: This can add some variety to your practice sessions and will help you stay interested. For instance, you might start out with an easy section, then switch to something hard. Continue switching it up until you're finished practicing for the day. If the songs you're practicing are too easy for you, then you'll get bored after the first few minutes. Similarly, music that's too difficult will make you feel frustrated. Switching between the two will keep you striving toward something while also letting you feel a sense of achievement. It's normal to get tired of playing the same thing all of the time. You need to have something to work toward. Ask your teacher for advice on how to move to the next skill level. Then, add something new to your practice sessions. What you add will depend on how long you've been playing. Beginners might start learning a different scale or may start learning a song. On the other hand, violinists with some experience might start learning more complicated songs. Advanced violinists may start practicing solos. You can get more advanced instruction at home by watching tutorials online or by using an app. For instance, you can find the apps Learn Violin or Classical Violinist on iPhone, while Android users can try Violin Notes or Violin Lesson Tutor. Once you've started playing music, talk to your teacher about learning to play one of your favorite songs. Even if it's going to take a bit of work for you to play it well, getting to play something you love will be an incentive to keep working. Before you talk to your teacher, make a list of songs you'd be interested in learning. Then, ask them which ones would be best for your current skill level. You can always save the others for later! Don't expect to play the song perfectly the first time. Put your own spin on the song by changing the arrangement or playing around with the melody. For instance, you might slow down the tempo or do a mashup of 2 songs. Put yourself into various scenarios that would allow you to show off your skills on the violin. Even if you're just getting started, picture what it will be like when you've mastered your instrument. Let these daydreams motivate you to keep practicing so you can really take center stage some day. For instance, you might: Pretend you're a soloist in a big concert hall. Picture yourself playing for your favorite celebrities. Pretend you're playing with your favorite musician. You don't have to stand in one spot while you play your violin. Instead, try swaying or dancing with your instrument. If this is too hard, just try taking a few steps to challenge yourself. Use your movement to express the mood of the music. For example, celebrity violinist Joshua Bell closes his eyes and sways as he plays, while fiddler Mairead Nesbitt of Celtic Women jumps and twirls as she plays. Similarly, YouTube violinist Jun Sung Ahn choreographs dance routines to her violin. As you become a more advanced violist, you'll likely be practicing your instrument more. For instance, it's common for advanced players to practice for an hour or more each day. Doing a long session can feel tedious and tiring, but breaking it up into several short sessions may help. That way, you'll get all of your practice in without losing interest. For instance, if you typically practice for an hour a day, you might practice for 30 minutes in the morning and 30 minutes after school.

SUMMARY: Alternate between hard and easy sections. Incorporate new songs or scales if you're bored. Play your favorite songs, if you're ready. Imagine you're giving a performance. Try incorporating movement as you play. Break long sessions into 2-3 short sessions.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Inadequate water intake prevents cell growth and reproductionyour hair won't grow without H20! Proper hydration is not only essential for the growth of your hair, but it will also ensure that your body functions properly. Aim to drink six to eight cups of water per day. Replace one to two caffeinated beverages with water every day. Set an alarm to remind you when it is time for your next glass of water. Proteins, specifically keratin, are the building blocks of hair. To encourage hair growth, eat a diet rich in nuts, lentils, and lean meats. To improve your scalp's health, consume foods that are naturally rich in vitamin A (dark leafy greens and sweet potatoes), vitamin C (citrus fruits), iron (lean red meats), and omega-3 fatty acids (avocados). Avoid risky fat diets. Your hair won't grow if it thinks you body is in trouble. The nutrients and vitamins you need to produce luscious locks will be diverted from your hair follicles and used to maintain necessary functions. In some extreme cases, your hair may even fall out. Eggs, bananas, raisins,coconut and olive oil are also rich in the vitamins and nutrients you need to grow strong hair and maintain a healthy scalp. Consuming too much salt, carbonated beverages, sugar, alcohol, and white flour may inhibit hair growth. Getting plenty of sleep is essential to leading a healthy, balanced life. Anxiety and stress can decrease your stomach acids, inhibiting the proper digestion and assimilation of the proteins, vitamins, and nutrients that encourage hair growth. Occasionally, too much stress can alter your hormone levels, disrupt your hair's growth cycle, and ultimately cause your hair to fall out. Sleeping reduces stress and promotes cell growth, as well as cell repair. Leave your phone, tablet or computer on the bedside table when it is time to sleep.

SUMMARY:
Stay hydrated. Eat foods that promote hair growth and scalp health. Sleep at least 8 hours every night.
