Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Know when to use this method. Charge the battery to 100 percent. Unplug your laptop. Run your laptop until the battery has been completely drained. Leave your laptop unplugged for another 3 to 5 hours. Begin charging the battery.

Answer: You'll want to recalibrate your laptop's battery if your computer's battery indicator is no longer displaying the correct amount of charge. For example, if your battery indicator says you have 50 percent charge but your computer shuts down shortly after, you should recalibrate your battery. Keep your computer's charger plugged in until your battery reaches the "Fully Charged" point. Remove the charger side of the charger cable from your computer to do so. Never disconnect the wall socket side of the charger first, as plugging it back in while the charger is connected to the laptop could damage your computer. You can simply keep your computer turned on until the battery life runs out, but streaming video or running another battery-consuming process will speed up the battery draining. This will ensure that the battery's phantom charge is completely gone before proceeding. Skip this step for a lithium battery. Plug back in the computer's charger to do so. Once the battery reaches 100 percent again, it should be calibrated.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Acknowledge your emotions. Modify your thinking. Face your reality gap. Practice acceptance. Give gratitude. Be resilient. Practice spirituality.

Answer: You may want to ignore the painful feelings the situation brings up or pretend your feelings do not exist. Recognize that by pushing your feelings away, you create more negative emotions. It's better to accept your feelings and work through them. Don't try to rationalize the way you feel; the only way to work through your emotions is by feeling them. For example, if you lose your job, it's okay to admit you feel angry, upset, fearful, and vengeful. Set aside 15 minutes each day to feel your emotions. Don't let your mind interfere, just sit and feel what you feel. You can journal your thoughts and feelings. Don't be afraid to cry. Crying releases negative chemicals from the body, and also helps relieve stress, lift your mood, and help you deal with painful circumstances. Try to view the situation as an opportunity to grow and improve. For example, try reminding yourself of how strong and resilient you are during tough times. When you look at things from this perspective, it's a lot more empowering. If you didn't get into the college you wanted to attend, your world isn't over and you won't lose your shot at having a career. Remember that you have options and that positive things will come of the situation. Try to keep your worries in perspective. Try asking yourself, "Is this worry really that bad in the grand scheme of things?" If you are worried about something in the future, ask yourself, "How likely is it that this will really happen?" If you find that you are worrying incessantly, try choosing a "worry time." At the beginning of each day, select a 15 minute time interval, in advance, when you can worry about your problems. If thoughts of any problems try to intrude outside of the designated "worry time," then remind yourself that it's not "worry time" yet. Often life gives you one option when you wanted an entirely different option. The greater distance between what you have and what you want, the greater pain you may experience. Recognize that the reality you wanted did not come true, and you must now live in a different reality. Instead of resenting your situation, acknowledge that you must adapt to your situation. For instance, if you lack financial resources, don't keep spending money like you did before. Acknowledge that your spending habits may need to change. Many things in life are out of your control, from the traffic on the highway to your boss being irritable at work. Instead of getting wound up and irritated at these situations, take a breath and practice accepting what is out of your control. While you cannot control the situation, you can control your reaction. You can practice acceptance through meditation. Write a list of all the things that are out of your control. Then, close your eyes and slow your breathing until you are in a meditative state. Imagine handing your list over to a higher power and letting those things go. Even in the most dire of circumstances, having a grateful attitude can provide a much needed perspective that widens your experience beyond your current pain. Even if you feel like you have lost many things, take a moment and acknowledge what you do have, especially the non-material things such as friendship, physical ability, or pleasant weather. Set aside time each day to reflect on what you are grateful for: you may be grateful for your dog, your children, a beautiful sunset, a pleasant walk, or a much-needed phone call with your sister. Take a few moments and express gratitude for these things. Remember the toughest points in your life, then remember that you are right here, having successfully worked through those situations and the dark times. You were able to endure that before, and you can endure this now. Resiliency is engaging the process of adapting to changes, whether they be temporary, life-long, or crisis situations. Look at the big picture and don't see difficulties as never-ending. They will end, and you will get through it. Resiliency doesn't develop when stress is removed from life, it develops when you're exposed to stress and have adequate time and tools to recover. For example, you may break your leg and not be able to walk for quite some time. Resiliency means finding ways to adapt to your new situation-- like excelling at physical therapy to build up strength, and getting good with a wheelchair or crutches-- knowing that you as a person will prevail, even if your ability changes. Reflect on past difficulties and what you gained from them. Some people report feeling more confident in their abilities or having a deeper appreciation of life. Know that there is likely some lessons for you to learn through this experience. Many people find spirituality helpful when coping with difficult events. Some positive spiritual coping methods include calling in support from a higher power, spiritual forgiveness, reframing the situation from a meaningful benevolent framework, and meditating on positive things.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Add more fiber Eat more leafy green vegetables. Drink lots of water. Avoid alcohol. Limit dairy. Drink a cup of coffee or tea. Have fermented foods.

Answer:
to your diet. Fiber adds bulk, softens stool, and contributes to peristalsis (gentle, rhythmic contractions of the colon), which encourages elimination. More fiber in your body means your colon can move waste out of your body more quickly and efficiently. Aim for about 20 to 35 grams (0.7 to 1oz) of fiber a day. Make sure you have five servings a day of fruits and vegetables as well as lots of whole grains in your diet. Have 100% whole grains in your diet, such as brown rice, quinoa, oatmeal, millet, and corn. Flax seeds, psyllium husk, wheat bran, and oats are super-sources of fiber. You can prepare flax seed at home, have it in smoothies, or add it to other foods. Fruits like strawberries, apples, and blueberries are high in fiber. Beans, seeds, and nuts are also good sources of fiber. In addition to providing fiber, leafy greens provide nutrients that help repair your intestines. Try to have at least one leafy green vegetable in each of your meals or as a snack. Alfalfa, wheatgrass, Brussels sprouts, collard greens, kale, spinach, peas, and barley grass are all good leafy greens. You can also try snacking on vegetables by dipping them in hummus, tzatziki, or baba ganoush. Your colon needs water to function properly and clean out any bacteria or waste in your gut. Try to have at least 13 cups of water a day if you are an adult male and nine cups of water a day if you are an adult female. You may increase your water intake if you are doing strenuous exercise or are in a hot, dry environment. You may get in the habit of carrying around a full water bottle with you wherever you go so you can hydrate throughout the day. You may also set a reminder on your phone so you can remember to have at least nine cups of water a day. Try adding sliced lemons, limes, and cucumber to your water to make it taste more exciting. You can also add herbs like mint to your water. Try to avoid alcoholic beverages, such as beer, wine and hard liquor. They can dehydrate you and lead to constipation. Constipation can clog up the colon with large, impacted, hard-to-pass stool. Also, alcohol can suppress intestinal peristalsis and the urge to go, which makes constipation more likely. Milk and dairy products may worsen the symptoms of constipation, especially if you consume a lot of dairy. If you are suffering from constipation, yet are active and drink plenty of fluids, try to limit the amount of dairy products you consume or temporarily take them out of your diet completely. Caffeine can help to stimulate your bowels, which may help to produce a bowel movement. Having a hot beverage may also stimulate your bowels. Try drinking a cup of hot coffee or some black or green tea to get things moving. Fermented foods contain probiotics, which are bacteria that are beneficial for your colon. These foods populate your gut with good bacteria, allowing your colon to function properly. Yogurt, miso, kimchi, and sauerkraut are four examples of fermented foods. Kefir, apple cider vinegar, and kombucha tea provide drinkable probiotics. You can also take a probiotic supplement. Make sure you buy a probiotic supplement from a reputable supplier online or in a health food store.
