Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Breathe through your nose. Take deep breaths. Exhale properly.

Answer: Although most of us are able to breathe through our mouths, you should always favor breathing in through your nose. Your nose is specifically designed for the intake of air and will help filter out particles and dust. Your nose has thin hairs and mucous that will help keep the air entering your lungs clean. Breathing in through your mouth may cause your mouth and throat to dry out. Your nose produces a gas called nitric oxide that enhances your immune system and may even increase the oxygenation of your blood. Either due to bad breathing habits or from being under stress, many people take quick and shallow breaths. Breathing provides vital oxygen to the body, and these short breaths don't carry as much oxygen as deeper and slower breathing will. Inhale through your nose. Imagine you are filling your belly up with air. At the start of the breath, your stomach should rise first, before your chest. When your stomach is "full" continue the inhalation, allowing the chest to rise now. Take your time breathing in. A good breath should last around five seconds on the inhalation. Just as with inhaling, exhalations of the breath should be done slowly. Exhaling too quickly lessens the time that our lungs can intake oxygen and remove carbon dioxide. Exhale through your mouth. You can try pursing your lips to slow the exhalation. Let the lungs push the air out at their own pace. Try not to force air out of your lungs. Start the exhalation at the stomach level, letting your diaphragm relax first. Your chest should fall with or after your stomach does. Don't rush the exhalation. Just like with the inhalation, you should take a few seconds to exhale.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Block the gaps under your door with a door sweep or draft guard. Apply weather stripping Block your electrical sockets using plugs or seals. Use insulation padding and painter's tape to block vents and large gaps. Apply caulk or tape to seal cracks and gaps in the wall. Use a fan to blow the smoke out of your home if you have a window.

Answer: Smoke can easily drift into your apartment under your exterior door. You may be able to block it by installing a rubber door sweep at the bottom of your door. If you can't alter the door, lay a draft guard or rolled up towel across the threshold to block the gap under the door. Ask your landlord if they will install the door sweep. You can find draft guards at many home goods stores or online. You can also make one yourself by rolling up a towel. to windows to block outdoor smoke. Smoke may come in through your windows if one of your neighbors smokes on their balcony or patio. If this happens, keep your windows closed and install weather stripping to block the smoke from entering your apartment. If you're not permitted by your landlord to install weather stripping, you can block much of the smoke by tucking a rolled up towel around the bottom of the window. Unfortunately, smoke can come through your electrical sockets because apartments are all connected. You can limit how much smoke comes through by blocking the outlets. Use plugs or outlet seals to cover the socket. Push them into the socket and make sure the back of the plug is flush against the socket. You can purchase seals made for electrical outlets and light switch points. Ask at your local hardware store. Smoke may also drift in through air vents or gaps around your heating or air conditioner. You may be able to block the smoke by covering the gaps with insulation padding or painter's tape. Tuck the padding into the gaps or lay it over a vent. Then, use the painter's tape to secure the padding in place. It's best to talk to your landlord to find out if they can seal some of the gaps. Using padding and tape won't alter the infrastructure of your apartment, so it won't violate your lease. You may have cracks around vents, cable cords, electrical sockets, lighting fixtures, and windows. If your landlord allows it, use caulk to completely seal these cracks so smoke can't enter through them. Hold the nozzle of the caulk gun flush with the crack, then squirt a thin layer of caulk into it. If you can't use caulk, use painter's tape to cover the gaps. Tape won't work as well as caulk, but it's better than nothing. Position your fan in the window or near it. Angle it so it's blowing out of the window. Turn the fan on whenever you see or smell the smoke. The fan may pull the smoke out of your apartment and blow it outside. Fans don't always work, but they can help. A large box fan is the best type of fan for this.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Talk out your emotions. Write a letter to the person. Write about your feelings in a journal. Make a change just for you.

Answer:
Emotions can overwhelm and even silence a person. It is time to find your voice. Talk things over with a family member, friend, counselor or minister. There are times when something is so personal that it can be hard to open up to those who know us. You may consider making an appointment with a counselor or clergy member. Feelings have a way of jumbling up, making them difficult to articulate. An objective third party individual can help by asking you the right questions to untangle your emotions without inserting their own opinions. The important part here is to simply start talking, rather than getting stuck in your own head where there is no one to help validate or correct your thoughts. Write a letter to your loved one. Then, let it go to signify your own mental choice to let him go. Some people find it cathartic to burn their letter, signifying a definitive end. Or you may prefer something more considerate of the place this person will always hold in your heart. This may be more appropriate if you are letting go because this person has passed. You might prefer placing your message in a helium filled balloon and setting it free. Another option is creating a sky lantern with words of love written on it and sending it off as though mailing your loved one. You may also choose to journal your feelings. Give space to the feelings you feel now, as well as the ones you hope to restore. Journaling allows you to be completely honest with yourself because your words are for your eyes only. This practice also helps you to identify patterns in your thinking, your actions and behavior. Changing even the slightest thing in your life can help you feel refreshed and remind you that life is still fun. Rearrange your furniture. Try a new haircut. Drive a different way to work. Eat dessert first. Whatever you choose to change, no matter how small, pick something enjoyable. It may only be a temporary mood lifter, but that may be all you need to remind yourself that you can still smile and enjoy life.
