Article: Post sticky notes or hang large blank pieces of paper in places you frequent, like the bathroom or kitchen. Add new words and their definitions to the hanging paper as you encounter them. That way you'll find yourself frequently encountering them as you go about your day. Include a written definition of the word if you're struggling to remember it. You can also draw a small picture depicting the meaning of the word beside it to help you build the association. For foreign vocabulary, try writing words for everyday objects like "mirror" and "table" on sticky notes. Attach the sticky notes to the objects the words refer to to strengthen the association between the word and the object in your mind. Writing new words into sentences that are relevant to your own life can help you build strong and relevant associations. For example, if you want to learn to use the word "azure," a term for a deep blue color, write it into several sentences that relate to your current situation or surroundings: "My new shampoo bottle is a striking azure color" or "the sky this summer has been a particularly vivid azure." The more fun you can make your vocabulary learning time, the more likely you are to do it and to learn from it. There are a number of vocabulary-learning games accessible online.

Problem: Article: There are lots of ways to relax, which can include journaling, playing or listening to music, and lighting candles and taking a bath. One way to relax that helps the mind and body is through progressive muscle relaxation. While lying down, systematically tense and relax certain muscle groups. You can start with your feet and move upward, tensing first your toes, then releasing the tension. Then move to your ankles, shins, knees, thighs, buttocks, stomach, arms, chest, neck, and face. Set aside 5-10 minutes each day to practice relaxation. Regular meditation can help rewire the brain and activate parts of the brain responsible for joy and serenity. Mindfulness meditation can be used to deal with stress and anxiety. Simply be fully in each moment and observe yourself and your surroundings without placing judgment or evaluation on any experience. You can practice mindfulness while walking (noticing each step you take, the pace at which your body moves), and in sitting meditation by observing each thought that comes to mind, yet not judging it or following it, but just observing. Practice mindfulness while eating. Smell the food before putting it in your mouth. Once eating the food, observe the texture, flavor, and temperature. Do this with each bite you take. Both alcohol and nicotine may give a small feeling of relief, but actually increase anxiety as they wear off. Resist your urge to turn to alcohol or nicotine as ways to cope with stress and anxiety. Instead, use relaxation, meditation, or another coping strategy.
Summary: Practice relaxation techniques. Meditate. Avoid alcohol and nicotine.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: As the philosopher Derrida once said: "Forgiveness is often confounded, sometimes in a calculated fashion, with related themes: excuse, regret, amnesty, prescription, etc." . Forgiveness is a two-way street. You may not be able to forgive yourself unless you learn to forgive others. You may need to let others into your life to help give you the support and structure to forgive yourself. Talk to loved ones to support yourself while you grapple with self-forgiveness. To forgive yourself, you must be aware of what you need to forgive. Writing out a detailed step-by-step guide may help you focus on what is important and give you the structure for an apology to yourself or others. Take into consideration the following aspects of creating a solution to ask forgiveness: Declare or ask for the apology using direct language. Do not step around the issue. Say "I'm sorry" or ask "Do you forgive me?" directly. You do not want to be ambiguous or come across as insincere. Investigate how you can actually fix a solution. If you are asking forgiveness from another, figure out specific actions that can help make amends. If you are forgiving yourself, ask yourself what steps you need to take to move forward with a healthier outlook on life. Promise yourself and others that you will strive to be better in the future. An apology is empty if you will not follow through with it. Make sure you do not repeat the same mistakes. If you ask for forgiveness for others, you will feel better about yourself. Sometimes, clearing the air can help to resolve an existing issue. It may also help to show that you were internalizing a bigger issue than was actually present. Asking for forgiveness has been proven to bring more favorable outcomes and provide stronger relationships

SUMMARY: Let people into your life. Outline a solution or plan. Ask forgiveness from others.

Find a quiet place where you won't be disturbed, such as your bedroom. Turn off any electronic devices that may distract you, such as the television, phone, or computer. Turning off the lights and shutting your blinds will also help. Candles are a great way to focus your attention during meditation. If you have created an angel altar, then you can light the candle on your altar. If you do not have an angel altar, then you can just light a candle and place it on a table in front of you. If you do not want to light a candle, then you can also use a rosary to help focus your attention or listen to some repetitive nature sounds, such as ocean waves or rain sounds. Meditation requires you to be still for a long time, so make sure that you are comfortable. For example, you may want to sit on a cushion. You can even lie down to meditate, as long as you're sure you won't fall asleep. Close your eyes or watch your candle. Try not to think of anything, not even your guardian angel for a few minutes. Focus on keeping your breath steady and slow. If you notice that you have started thinking about something, then take a moment to acknowledge the thought and then refocus on your breathing. In your mind, say "hello" to your angel. Thank your angel for watching over you. Then, let your angel know about any problems that are bothering you and ask your angel for guidance. If you have learned or prepared a prayer, then take a moment to recite the prayer. You can do this in your head or say the prayer out loud. Any sign that your angel is there will most likely be subtle. For example, you may hear a faint noise, see a fleeting image in your mind's eye, notice a sensation of warmth, or get the feeling that someone is in the empty room with you. Some people believe that angels cannot interfere in our lives without being directly asked to. If you're not sure your angel is there, try asking your angel to let you know someone is there. When you have finished speaking with your angel, say goodbye. You may want to end your meditation with a prayer as well. If your eyes were closed, open them. Then, sit quietly for a minute or two as you let your mind go back to normal. Keep in mind that meditation is a difficult skill to master. You probably won't get it right on your first attempt and that is okay. Just keep practicing your meditation and it will become easier. Remember that it is fine to start with just a few minutes of meditation per day and work up to longer periods of meditation as you become more comfortable.
