INPUT ARTICLE: Article: It's helpful to know some anatomy before you give a massage. Thigh muscles are in 4 basic groups which run from the hips down to the knee, in the front, sides, and backs of the legs. Knowing where the bones are located should also be helpful because the tissues that connect muscle to bone are important to massage. The connective tissues around the joints, like the hips, the knees, the ankles and the feet, can be pulled, kneaded, or compressed. The hamstrings and calves in the back of the leg are notoriously tight and people who run often have issues related to the outer thigh area, the TFL, or the IT band. Start the massage with gentle techniques and use lighter pressure near bones and sensitive areas. As circulation increases, so can the intensity of the massage. Move your fingers and hands quickly and lightly or slowly and firmly, but not quickly and firmly. The body parts you use to perform a massage affect the pressure. The elbows generally provide the strongest pressure. The palms and fingers will generally apply less pressure. Deeper tissue massage can include pressing down with the heel of the hand, the thumb, one hand on top of the other hand, the knuckles, a fist, or the forearm. Types of massage include gliding, kneading, compression, friction, percussion, vibration, jostling and range of motion movements. (optional). If you want, it's okay to use oil for a leg massage. This can make it easier to run your hands and fingers over someone's legs and oils can also provide a soothing effect. For leg massages, go for oils like olive oil, avocado oil, or almond oil. You can also use essential oils, or oils that are infused with scents such as lavender, eucalyptus, and tea tree, for a pleasantly aromatic experience. Make sure the person you're massaging does not have an existing allergy to the oil you use. To start, help the person you're massaging find a comfortable position. For leg massages, it's usually easy to lie down somewhere like a bed. The person can have their legs stretched forward. If you're only massaging one leg, you may want to have the person lie on their side with the leg you're massaging extending upward. You can also have the person lie with their legs stretched out and elevated slightly. A pillow can be used to elevate the person's legs. Ask the person if there's a particular area where they want extra pressure or attention. For example, if someone's thighs are bothering them, they may want you to focus on massaging their thighs. You may want to linger on certain areas and give them more attention.

SUMMARY: Learn about basic anatomy. Figure out how to apply pressure. Choose your oils Find a comfortable position. Communicate with the person.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: The more stimulation that a breast gets, the more milk it will produce, and the larger it will grow. Uneven breasts commonly occur if you baby prefers to feed on one breast over the other, or if you tend to stick to one breast for nursing. Begin every nursing with the smaller breast if possible. You should notice your breasts starting to balance out after a few days, as the smaller breast begins to produce more milk. Imbalanced and uneven breasts are very common in the first couple of weeks after you give birth, and especially if you are breastfeeding. This is very normal and usually nothing to worry about, but if you are particularly concerned, consult your healthcare professional. Breast pumps are known for increasing breast milk supply, which will make your smaller breast larger. Make sure that you pump the larger breast from time to time too, in order to keep up its milk supply. Pumping can also be useful if your baby has a preference for the smaller breast, and won't feed on the other side. Try and use each breast the same amount as the other, otherwise the larger one might ended up becoming the smaller one. This will help your breasts to produce similar amounts of milk, and to stay as even as possible. Remembering which breast you start with during each breastfeeding session is a good way to remember to switch it up. Nursing with both breasts equally will help them to even out, but only if your baby agrees as well! Try out a few different nursing positions, as a more comfortable position for your baby could help them to nurse. Another option for breastfeeding with the baby's less preferred breast is to offer it to them when they are tired. This is because they will be less aware of their surroundings, and hopefully more willing to try out the other side.
Summary: Feed using the smaller breast more often. Use a breast pump on the smaller breast after nursing. Alternate between each breast for feeding once they become even. Help your baby to feed with their less preferred breast.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: A lot of people act in ways that show disinterest and dislike without even realizing it. Figure out if there's anything that you door don't dothat may make you seem closed off, and try doing the opposite to look more open. Are you shy and quiet? Unfortunately, shyness is often misinterpreted by others as arrogance. Try to turn this assumption around by talking to people more often. What's your body language like? Many people look closed off without meaning to be. When you cross your arms, fidget, slouch, avoid eye contact, or rarely smile, you look less approachable to other people. Sometimes people aren't open due to negative past experiences, chemical imbalances, or neurological disorders. While self-help may work for some issues, others require the help of professionals to resolve. Depending on your problem, you may talk to a counselor, a therapist, your primary care physician, a psychiatrist, or some combination thereof. If you're having trouble opening up due to a fear of social situations, you may have social anxiety. Certain mental illnesses, neurodevelopmental disorders, and neuromuscular diseases can affect your ability to communicate nonverbally, making looking more open difficult. Some people may have trouble opening up because of past trauma or a lack of ability to trust others. A professional counselor can help you work through these issues and regain your ability to trust, allowing you to be more open. You don't have to change the positive or neutral aspects of your personality just to be more open. If you're comfortable with yourself and have fulfilling interpersonal relationships, then you might already be an open person in your own way. There's nothing wrong with being who you are. If you're introverted, don't try to be extroverted. Since many cultures are biased towards extroverts, it may be tempting to force yourself into a more extroverted persona. However, this can lead to burnout and unhappiness over time. Instead, find the right balance of social interaction that makes you happy and stick with it. If you're autistic, you're likely to have some trouble with typical nonverbal expression. You may want to learn how to do things like maintain appropriate eye contact and smile more often to help with social situations at school and work. Keep in mind that most people have to "perform" the same way on some level, even if it may come to them a little more naturally. Also, if you struggle with these things, don't beat yourself up over it. Just try your best.

SUMMARY:
Think about why you may be considered closed off. Consider talking to a professional. Remember that there are many types of open people.
