Unlike tire straps, axle straps use your vehicle's weight and suspension to help keep it in place. This is typically the best option for bulky classic cars produced before 1990 and large vehicles like trucks and four wheelers. Axle straps can cause unwanted damage to small or modern vehicles. Pull an axle strap around the left side of your car's rear axle bar. Then, secure it by closing the strap's metal clip. If your strap has a padded section, make sure that section is the part that touches the axle. Your car's rear housing holds its rear axle, which is the long horizontal bar that connects the back wheels. Grab a ratchet strap that has a metal clip on the end. Connect the clip to the D-ring on the back left side of the trailer, then give it a tug to make sure it holds. D-rings are the inset rings bolted onto the trailer. They're generally located on each corner of the vehicle. Pull the free end of your axle strap through the ratchet buckle's center hole, leaving just a small amount of slack. Then, raise and lower the ratchet's handle 3 or 4 times to lock the strap in place. If your ratchet strap has a second metal clip, hook it onto the axle strap's metal ring (the part you tied to the rear axle housing). Check to make sure that your straps are secure and completely connected. Then, move the ratchet's handle up and down until the straps are fairly taut. Make sure to keep the straps straight and don't twist them as you tighten, since twisting can make unloading more difficult. Overtightening the straps can lead to axle damage. If your straps feel like they're starting to strain, loosen them slightly. If you're left with any loose strap ends, tie them up using bungee cords or cable ties. Grab a second axle strap and a second ratchet strap. Then, repeat the fastening process by wrapping the axle strap around the right side of the rear axle, hooking the ratchet strap onto the adjacent D-ring, and connecting the straps together. Just like with the previous side, make sure the straps are tight enough to secure the car but not so tight that they strain the axle. Grab 2 more axle straps and 2 more ratchet straps. Then, wrap the axle straps around the left and right sides of the front axle, clip the ratchet straps into the adjacent D-rings, and connect the corresponding straps together. Finally, ratchet the straps until they're tight with no slack. If you'd prefer, you can wrap the front axle straps around your car's A-arms or chassis rail. Be careful not to secure any straps around the car's sway bars, steering arms, or steering racks. These are located on the bottom of the car and look like small axle rods.

Replace self-criticism with self-compassion and say "sorry" to yourself for being judgmental or demeaning. This might sound like, "I'm sorry for beating myself up when I make mistakes. I am only human and all humans are imperfect in some way." Do this every time you find yourself in a cycle of criticism or disapproval. Aim to accept and love yourself as you would a close friend. Instead of being hard on yourself when you make a mistake, caress your arm or shoulders as if to say "There, there, don't be sad." You might even hug yourself if this feels comfortable, or notice when you need a hug and ask someone else to give you one. Regularly engage in activities that affirm your self-worth. Feeding yourself healthy foods, exercising, and going to bed early are all ways to remind yourself that you are good and worthy of nurturing. Self-care can be anything constructive that makes you feel good, such as soaking in a tub of bath salts, listening to your favorite album, coloring, going for a run, performing self-massage, or cuddling with your dog. You can even use your self-care routine to counter any negative talk you've had about yourself. For example, if you typically criticize your facial skin, spend extra time applying a face mask and caring for this part of you. Showing compassion for yourself means building relationships with positive, uplifting people who make you feel good about who you are. Identify those people in your life and set an intention to be with them more often. If you don't have many loved ones who are accepting of you, consider joining a support group or a club relating to a hobby or interest.
