by 

Tess Kimble 

Follow Us: 

If you are an insomnia sufferer and have 

trouble sleeping, the tips in this article 

will help you achieve a good night’s sleep 

and get rid of insomnia. 

lot of people have had 

A 

to deal with what a 

sleepless night can do 

to them. If they continue, 

you are a sufferer 

of insomnia. The effects of 

insomnia can be devastating on 

your physical and emotional wellness. 

When you take action, you 

can get rid of insomnia and dream 

the rest of the night. 

8 Issue 15 • April 2018

1 

GET ENOUGH SLEEP EVERY NIGHT 

You should sleep enough hours that 

make you feel rested. Don’t try to make up 

for lost sleep. Sleep until you feel rested 

every night. Don’t sleep a lot one night and 

then think you can sleep less the next. 

2 

SLEEP ON REGULAR SCHEDULE 

A schedule is the best way to get the 

sleep you need each night; make your bedtime 

the same time. Human beings are 

creatures of routine, whether they know it 

or not. You will feel much better overall if 

you stick to a schedule. If you make it a 

point to get some sleep at the same time 

each night, your body will naturally start 

to relax around then each night. You can 

sleep a lot better if you limit your bedtime 

hours to around eight maximum. 

If you are suffering from allergies, worry no more, 

the helpful pointers in this article will help you find 

relief from your most dreaded allergy symptoms.

3 

BUY A FIRM MATTRESS 

TO SLEEP ON 

If you suffer from insomnia often, look into 

getting a firm mattress. Often a mattress 

that’s too soft can offer little body support. 

Your body will become stressed and 

this will cause your insomnia to worsen. 

Buying a firm mattress can truly fix a lot of 

sleeping problems. 


9

4 

RELEASE TENSION WITH 

A HOT WATER BOTTLE 

Adding a hot water bottle to your bed space 

may help you rest. The heat from the hot 

water bottle can help release the tension 

in your body. It’s a simple but effective way 

to drift off more quickly. Place the water 

bottle on top of your abdomen. Let your 

body absorb the heat while you practice 

deep breathing. 

5 

ENJOY A LITTLE MASSAGE 

Another option for achieving a better 

night’s sleep could be receiving a pleasant 

massage just before going to bed. It helps 

your body and muscles feel calm and relaxed. 

Trade nights with a partner so they 

can sleep better, too. It needn’t be a marathon 

massage. Most people benefit from 

15-minute hand, neck, or foot massages. 

6 

GET RID OF YOUR 

WORRIES BEFORE BEDTIME 

Worrying about problems the next day may 

bring can prevent you from sleeping at 

night. For instance, if you need to pay the 

bills, do them during the day so that your 

mind won’t get stressed near bedtime. Get 

rid of the day’s worries as much as you can. 

If needed, make a list of the things that you 

have to do before you sleep. 


7 

THE BEDROOM IS 

FOR SLEEPING ONLY 

Avoid using your bedroom for any activity 

besides sleeping and getting dressed. If 

you have a computer in your room, it may 

be difficult to sleep. You’ll be able to train 

your brain into thinking your bedroom 

is for sleep, if that’s the only thing you 

do there. 

8 

ENJOY SOME SUNLIGHT 

Getting some sunlight can help with 

sleep at night. Try enjoying your lunch outside 

or taking a short walk. This stimulates 

your glands and allows them to produce 

melatonin so you can fall asleep. 

9 

DO REGULAR EXERCISE 

You may already know that regular 

exercise helps you get enough sleep, but 

it can also actually improve the quality of 

your sleep, too. Working out can be a cure 

for insomnia, but you need to make sure 

you do it several hours before bed. You 

should not work out right before you lay 

down, as exercise is a stimulant. Be sure 

that you’re done with exercising about 3 

hours before bedtime so you won’t have a 

hard time sleeping. Morning exercise is the 

best idea. 


11

QUIT SMOKING 

Smoking is one of the worst offenders 

when it comes to disrupting sleep. 

Your heart rate goes up and your body is 

stimulated, too. Quitting is a must. Getting 

to sleep and having a better sleep quality 

are just extra benefits. 

UNDERGO THERAPY 

If you suffer from insomnia constantly, 

think about cognitive therapy. 

When you partake this kind of therapy, 

you will be able to identify your erroneous 

beliefs that have disturbed your sleep. 

It also reveals deviations from normal 

sleeping patterns so that counteractive 

strategies may be planned. 

It is possible to obtain a good night’s 

sleep. There are many alternative prescription 

medications to take for sleep 

difficulties; you can get the sleep you 

need with minimal negative side effects. 

The above tips will help you to get to 

sleep deeply so that you can wake up and 

feel refreshed. 


7 USEFUL POINTERS FOR

Sleep apnea is a very serious medical disorder that afflicts millions of people. If 

you suffer from the disorder, apply everything from this article. 

Sleep apnea is a common disorder that can have a dramatic, negative affect 

on a person’s life. If you suffer from sleep apnea, it is crucially important that 

you educate yourself on the best ways to deal with the disorder. The information 

contained within this article will educate you on several sleep apnea 

healthcare tips. 


1 TRY 

WEIGHT LOSS 

If you have moderate 

to severe sleep 

apnea, lose some 

weight. Being overweight 

or obese can 

affect your breathing 

severely and can 

cause many health 

problems, including 

sleep apnea. Those 

individuals who 

lost at least twenty 

to twenty-five excess 

pounds saw a 

marked improvement 

in respiratory 

issues related to 

sleep apnea. 

2 

GIVE A MOUTH 

GUARD A TRY 

Consider using a 

mouth guard when 

you sleep. If your jaw 

is improperly aligned, 

this could lead to issues 

with sleep apnea. 

The alignment 

of your jaw has a lot 

to do with whether 

or not you are getting 

sufficient airflow. 

Being fitted for 

a mouth guard can 

help you breathe 

while it’s correcting 

the problem. 

There are options when 

you’re dealing with 

something like eczema. 

The key is to take your 

time to put the advice 

given here to 

good use. 



17

3 

USE A CPAP MACHINE 

If you have to use a Continuous 

Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) machine, 

you may find it hard to get used 

to at first. It is important that you do not 

quit using the machine, though. Focus on 

the benefits of the machine rather than 

the inconvenience. It will make life safer 

for yourself and others. Daytime sleepiness 

caused by sleep apnea is a major 

risk factor for car accidents, for instance. 

If you use a CPAP machine, make sure the 

mask fits well. Most people who quit using 

their CPAP machine usually say it is because 

the machine is uncomfortable. There 

are a number of different masks available, 

so you are not forced to use one that 

causes discomfort. Try out many different 

styles to find the right one. 

4 

ADJUST YOUR CPAP MACHINE 

Most machines come with default 

settings that might not correspond to your 

needs. You should be able to regulate the 

airflow: try different settings and choose 

one that seems to work for you. If you 

feel like your machine is not working like 

it should, try changing the settings again. 

If you are using a CPAP and experience 

an issue with your mouth opening during 

sleep, a chin strap can help. It is a simple 

cloth strap that can easily hold up your 

chin as you sleep. CPAP machines do not 

function with open mouths, so a chin strap 

can really save you. 


5 

AVOID DRINKING ALCOHOL 

If you have been diagnosed with 

sleep apnea, it is important to avoid 

drinking alcohol. Alcoholic beverages 

will relax the muscles in your throat, 

which makes it more likely that they will 

block your airway during your sleep. At 

the very least, avoid any alcoholic beverages 

in the evening before you get ready 

for bed. 

6 

PROP UP YOUR 

HEAD AND BODY 

An excellent way to reduce the symptoms 

of sleep apnea is to prop up your head and 

body. If you can get your head at least 4 

inches off of the mattress or elevate your 

torso from the waist up, you will reduce 

your symptoms. Try using a foam wedge 

or cervical pillow when sleeping to do this. 

7 

TAKE YOUR OWN PILLOW 

FOR A SLEEP STUDY 

If you have sleep apnea, and you have to 

have a sleep study, considering taking your 

pillow from home with you. It can be very 

difficult to sleep in the sleep lab. You are in 

an unfamiliar place in a strange bed. You 

have lots of wires, and electrodes attached 

to you. Having your own pillow can help to 

relax you and make it easier to fall asleep. 

very serious and all too common medical 

disorder that afflicts many millions of people 

throughout the world. If you yourself 

suffer from the disorder, apply everything 

that you have learned from this article to 

your life and ensure that you are doing everything 

you can to protect your health.

10 PRINCIPLES TO HELP YOU LEARN ABOUT 

ACUPUNCTURE 

by 

Tess Kimble 

With the information contained 

in this article, you will be much 

better equipped to make an 

informed decision on whether 

acupuncture is suitable for you. 

Follow Us: 

What do you know about acupuncture 

as a form of treatment? 

Are you in the position 

to consider acupuncture? You 

might be surprised to find out 

after reading this article that it has many 

benefits and is done for many reasons. 

Keep reading to find out more about acupuncture 

and how it can work for you. 


23

1 

DON’T EAT TOO MUCH BEFOREHAND 

Do not eat too much before you head into your appointment. While you should 

not go in on an empty stomach, because you could experience nausea if you do, stuffing 

yourself will only make you feel bad. Instead, plan to have a snack about an hour or two 

before your appointment time. 

Better health over the long-term depends on improving 

your lifestyle with new, better habits and 

activities like the ones suggested here. Read on! 

 


2 

STAY AWAY FROM COFFEE 

PRIOR TO A SESSION 

Avoid having coffee before your treatment. 

You should abstain for about two hours 

before an appointment. This restriction is 

due to the fact that coffee is a stimulant 

which works in direct opposition to the 

goals of your acupuncture session. Coffee 

also makes the acupuncturist’s job more 

difficult because it is harder to get accurate 

heart rate readings. 

3 

UNITED STATES 

ACUPUNCTURE EXPERIENCE 

Do not let an acupuncturist convince you 

they are experienced because they practiced 

in another country. Keep in mind that 

practicing acupuncture in China or in another 

country is very different from what 

doctors are allowed to do in the U.S. Ask 

your acupuncturist about their education 

and experience in the U.S. 


4 

AVOID ALCOHOL BEFORE A SESSION 

Stay away from an alcoholic beverage prior to a session. Acupuncture is supposed 

to help you clear your thoughts and gain clarity. Alcohol will cause disruption, which is 

not what you want. When you are suffering from a hangover before an appointment, try 

rescheduling for a later date when the full effect will be noticeable. 

5 

SEE IT THROUGH 

Finish your full course of acupuncture 

treatments. You wouldn’t stop antibiotics 

half-way through, right? You may feel 

better by the end of your session; however, 

the results may not be complete. Don’t 

judge the outcome until you have completed 

every bit of treatment. 

6 

FOCUS ON THE BIG PICTURE 

Do not focus on how long the treatment 

will take, as this can keep you from 

focusing on the big picture, which is to get 

well. The acupuncturist likely cannot give 

you an answer to that immediately anyway, 

as it depends partly on what you are 

willing to do at home to help yourself. 


25

7 

TRY TO GET INSURANCE 

COVERAGE FOR ACUPUNCTURE 

Acupuncture is recognized as an effective 

treatment for a lot of different ailments 

and diseases by the medical world. 

If you consider having this type of treatment, 

you might want to check with 

your insurance company first. Many insurance 

companies will actually cover 

the cost of acupuncture treatments. 

If acupuncture benefits are not a part of 

your insurance plan, start by writing the 

company a letter. It is possible that the 

company will consider amending their 

plan. For maximum effect, send a copy of 

the letter to your HR representative. Your 

employer may have a part in determining 

which benefits are included on your plan. 

8 

GIVE YOUR DOCTOR FEEDBACK 

If you really don’t like a certain practice in the session, politely request not to have 

it done again. Your doctor will be able to use an alternative technique. They may heat up 

the needles while they’re in your skin so that the body is stimulated by the heat. If you 

find it uncomfortable, tell the practitioner. 


9 

ASK TO SEE 

THE NEEDLES 

All acupuncture needles 

should be labeled for single 

use only. Make sure this 

is the case in your acupuncturists 

office. Ask to see 

the needles, and make sure 

they are bagged appropriately 

and labeled for single 

use. If this is not the case, 

you could risk exposure to 

dangerous diseases. 

YOU SHOULD 

FEEL NO PAIN 

Acupuncture rarely is painful in any way. The needles used 

in acupuncture are very thin. You can barely see them with 

the naked eye. Because of their small size, they often do 

not hit nerve endings and you will feel no pain. Even when 

they do hit a nerve, they are so small you barely feel it. 

Expect to see some small red dots and even some minor 

bruising on your skin. After an acupuncture treatment, 

this is perfectly normal. You needn’t feel upset or 

alarmed. Eventually, these will disappear, and for this 

small sacrifice, your body is going to feel a lot better. 

Now that you’ve read the helpful information contained in 

this article, you are much better equipped to make an informed 

decision on whether acupuncture is suitable for 

your needs. Make sure that you remember the benefits 

that have been described to you. It really is a unique and 

interesting procedure.

9 TIPS TO HELP YOU WIN YOUR 

BATTLE WITH 

ECZEMA 

by 


Follow Us: 

There are options when 

you’re dealing with 

something like eczema. The 

key is to take your time to 

put the advice you given 

here to good use. 

When you have to 

deal with something 

like eczema, 

it can seem like 

there isn’t much 

out there that can help you. 

Well, luckily you came across 

this article. Here you’ll get 

some advice on how to take 

care of eczema so that in the 

end you’ll feel better about 

taking it on. 


31

1 

AVOID STRESS 

Keep away from stress 

when you have eczema. Stress can 

cause an eczema flare-up. If stress 

is getting to you, see if meditation 

or workouts will help. Perhaps 

you can keep your eczema flareup 

from being too severe. 

2 

CONTROL YOUR 

BODY TEMPERATURE 

Your body temperature could have an impact 

on your eczema. Being too hot could 

cause you to sweat, which makes the skin 

irritated and itchy. In the winter time, 

the humidity inside is quite low, which 

could cause the skin to dry out and become 

itchy. Keep these things in mind as 

to what could make your eczema flare up. 

Avoid becoming overheated. Excess sweat 

can trigger eczema flare-ups. If you do 

work out, take a shower afterwards. In fact, 

shower after any bout of strenuous activity, 

which could include things like gardening 

or heavy housework. Keeping your skin 

clean will help to keep you comfortable 

and your eczema flare-ups at bay. 

Sleep apnea is a very serious medical disorder that 

afflicts millions of people. If you suffer from the disorder, 

apply everything from this article. 



3 

STICK TO OINTMENTS 

Lotions and creams do not usually work as well as ointments. Ointments have a bit 

more oil in them, which generally helps them moisturize more effectively. They are a little 

harder to apply than creams, however, but they are much better at adding a protective 

layer to the skin and easing your symptoms. 

4 

PROTECT YOUR SKIN 

DURING WINTER 

Winter weather can cause eczema to worsen. 

Anytime your skin is exposed to frigid 

air, it needs a protective barrier to protect 

it from moisture loss. On any skin areas, 

such as the face or neck, be sure to 

heavily apply a moisturizer. Moisturizers 

will help you avoid dry and cracking skin 

because it locks in your skin’s natural oils. 

If you live in an area that experiences 

cold weather in the winter, buy a humidifier 

to help decrease eczema flare-ups. 

During the cold winter months, we close 

all of our windows and turn on the furnace. 

This can make the air inside the 

house very dry, which makes the itching 

and dry skin associated with eczema 

even worse. To replace moisture in 

your internal environment, use a humidifier. 

This added moisture will keep your 

skin from becoming dry, cracked, itchy 

and irritated. 


33

5 MOISTURIZE! 

Eczema typically 

causes skin to become dry 

and itchy. To reduce these 

symptoms, you need to apply 

moisturizers. Though 

it may sound odd, moisturizers 

do not actually 

add hydration to skin. 

A good moisturizer that is 

applied on a regular basis 

will lock in moisture 

and natural body oils. This 

will reduce the amount 

of dryness that you have. 

Moisturize immediately following 

bathing. This is the 

best time to do it because 

your skin is still damp. 

Make sure to only pat dry 

your skin between showering 

and moisturizing. You 

don’t want to remove any 

moisture that your skin has 

already absorbed; that is 

counterproductive to treating 

your eczema. 

6 

TREAT BABY 

ECZEMA WITH 

DAILY BATHS 

If your baby has eczema, 

bathe him or her every day. 

This will help to keep the 

skin moisturized and free 

from infection. Besides hydrating 

your baby’s skin to 

help keep flare-ups at bay, 

baths can be fun for babies, 

and you can use them 

as an opportunity to further 

bond with yours. 


7 

KNOW YOUR 

ENVIRONMENTAL 

TRIGGERS 

Some eczema is caused by environmental 

triggers. Dust mites 

can actually lead to eczema breakouts. 

For other people, soaps 

that have scents are to blame. 

Regardless of what affects you, it 

is important to pinpoint the cause 

so you can stay away from that 

product or situation. You may 

need to make some small changes, 

but the relief you find as a result 

will be worth it. 

8 

DO NOT SCRATCH 

Should your eczema start 

to bother you, do not scratch, no 

matter how tempted you are to 

do so. Scratching not only makes 

itching worse, but it can actually 

irritate your skin and even cause 

infection. Try to find other ways 

to deal with the itching; apply 

cold compresses to the affected 

area or use medications. 

9 

PERFORM A PATCH TEST 

Always preform a patch 

test. When you are trying a 

new product, it is important to 

know whether or not it will irritate 

your skin before putting 

it all over yourself. Take a small 

amount of the product and apply 

it to a small portion of your skin. 

After a few hours, you should 

be able to determine whether 

or not it triggers your eczema. 

Now you’re able to see that there 

are options when you’re dealing 

with something like eczema. The 

key is to take your time to put 

the advice you were given here to 

good use. It will be easier as time 

goes on, so don’t delay and work 

on this as soon as possible.

10 BASIC TIPS ON 

Chiropractic 

CARE 

by 

Tess Kimble 

Follow Us: 

Going for chiropractic care on a regular 

basis is beneficial for your health. Learn 

more about chiropractic care and some 

home remedies that you can do. 

You may think about seeing a 

chiropractor if you have neck 

or back pain. It’s easy to understand 

why since you want 

to quickly feel better. But, you 

should know some basics before you get 

started. Read this article to learn more. 


39

1 

ADVANTAGES OF 

CHIROPRACTIC CARE 

There are many positives that can result 

from seeing a chiropractor. If you have 

back or neck pain, see a chiropractor. In 

addition, getting treated by a chiropractor 

routinely can prevent misalignment problems. 

Proper alignment of your back and 

spine is part of your whole body’s health. 

Are you aware of the fact that you can 

boost the body’s immunity with chiropractic 

care? If your spine is misaligned, your 

nervous system and immune system are 

compromised. By having a chiropractor 

align your spine, you can get more blood 

flow into your body’s nervous system. This 

blood will help you battle infections. 

Living with panic attacks actually takes a great deal 

of strength. Learn how to prevent your panic attacks 

with the tips provided in this article. 

 


2 FINDING A 

QUALIFIED CHIROPRACTOR 

You can easily find qualified chiropractic 

care nearly anywhere in the country. 

Chiropractic treatment represents the 

second largest health care profession. It 

is growing fast, too. There are more than 

60,000 practicing chiropractors in the US. 

10,000 chiropractic students are studying 

to be professionals. 

You can find a qualified chiropractor fairly 

easy in today’s market. There are many 

persons throughout the country and world 

seeking chiropractic care each day. It’s 

good to know that chiropractors that are 

qualified go through a lot of training and 

are certified to do what they do. They must 

take a four-year undergraduate program 

and have comprehensive knowledge of human 

anatomy. Always review the training 

and certifications acquired by any chiropractor 

before you begin their treatment. 


3 

GET REFERRALS 

FROM YOUR DOCTOR 

Should you be looking for good chiropractic 

care, speak with your physician about a referral 

or suggestion. Even if you don’t need a 

referral, it is always a good idea to get their 

professional opinion. It is possible that your 

doctor will suggest some other option. 

4 

AVOID CHIROPRACTORS 

THAT SELL STUFFS 

Stay away from any chiropractors wanting to 

place you on a course of homeopathic supplements, 

dietary products or herbal supplements 

to treat diseases. When they are 

selling this stuff out of their office, they are 

probably not the best chiropractor. Turn to 

a medical doctor to get that type of advice. 

5 

CHECK ON DISCOUNTS 

Ask the chiropractic office to see if 

they offer discounts for multiple visits. 

Chiropractic care often means many visits 

over time. It could be a couple appointments 

a week for a few months; the costs 

could rise. The doctor’s office may have 

some sort of discount for multiple visits to 

make treatment much more affordable. 

6 

DO NOT LET A CHIROPRACTOR 

SNAP YOUR NECK 

This can kink two well-known arteries in 

your neck if something goes wrong. This is 

usually not problematic, but a chiropractor 

can accidentally tear the lining of the arteries 

when not careful. This can result in 

clots forming that can lead to stroke. 


41

7 

AVOID STRAINING YOUR BACK 

If you study for a long time, it can strain the back. When doing this, you want to occasionally 

keep a foot on a nearby stool. This helps reduce lower back strain. If this isn’t 

possible, then make sure you are shifting your body weight every now and then. 

8 

SLEEP IN A PROPER POSITION 

If you are dealing with back related problems, make sure that the position of 

your body when you sleep is not causing further issues. You can use a cervical pillow 

for neck support when you’re sleeping. This technique allows you to maintain posture 

while you sleep. 


9 

GET OUT OF BED THE RIGHT WAY 

Rise from bed the right way every 

morning. Do this by stretching and 

rising up slowly before you fully get up. 

Next, swing the legs over to the floor 

by supporting yourself with your arms. 

Getting out of bed the right way helps 

reduce spine injuries. 

EMPTY YOUR BACK POCKETS 

Do not carry a wallet inside your

Better health over the 

long-term depends on 

improving your lifestyle 

with new, better habits 

and activities like the 

ones suggested here. 

Read on! 

Staying fit 

is the best 

way to live a 

longer, more 

fulfilling life. 

There are many things to 

learn, and it is hard to 

know how to get started. 

Here are a few 

ideas you can use to 

get started on your 

fitness plan.

With the information 

contained in this article, 

you will be much better 

equipped to make an informed 

decision on whether 

acupuncture is suitable 

for you. 


1 

TRY ZUMBA 

If you are looking 

to get physically fit, try a 

Zumba class. Zumba is a 

very popular new class offered 

in most gyms across 

the country. It incorporates 

Latin dance with aerobic 

moves. Even non-dancers 

enjoy the movements 

and everyone who tries 

it, comes out of the class 

burning hundreds, if not 

thousands, of calories. 

2 

GET ADEQUATE 

SLEEP 

To have a healthy body, it 

is important to have a good 

amount of sleep. The body 

needs to sleep to rejuvenate, 

this should not be 

taken for granted. Sleeping 

for eight hours maintains 

the body’s healthy immune 

system, helps the individual 

manage stress better. 

So be sure to get a good 

amount of sleep daily. 


3 

DO TEN TO TWELVE REPS 

A great way to get fit is to perform 

reps in the ten to twelve range when you 

are lifting weights. You might not be able 

to lift as much weight, but your muscles 

will become more toned. The amount 

of reps you do is very important in 

getting fit. 

4 

PAY UP FRONT FOR YOUR GYM 

Pay up front for the gym and your 

trainer! Sometimes money is the best commitment 

we can make that will insure we 

will exercise regularly. If we have already 

paid the fees for the gym and for our trainer 

we will be much more likely to take advantage 

of the services we’ve paid for! 

5 

ADJUST YOUR POSTURE 

If you are going to be running uphill, 

your posture greatly effects how well you 

can do it. You should always try to keep 

your head up and be looking at the top of 

the hill whenever you run uphill. Using this 

posture, it will make it easier to breathe. It 

becomes harder to breathe when you are 

hunched forward. 


49

6 RUN! 

Running is the one of the best ways 

to get fit. While running, there is a simple 

formula you should follow regarding the 

speed and pace of your run. You should 

start out slowly, then in the middle you 

should increase speed, then at the end run 

as fast as you can. 

7 

TAPE JAMMED FINGERS 

While playing any sport like basketball 

or baseball, you will notice that there 

is sometimes one or two fingers that will 

constantly get jammed. When this happens, 

you should tape the jammed finger 

to a neighboring finger and this will help 

reduce dislocation. 

8 

FOLLOW YOUR 

WORKOUT ROUTINE 

Add your workout to your daily schedule, 

and follow it. Many people say that 

they do not have the time to exercise, 

but if you add it to your calendar and try 

it out, you will probably find that you still 

accomplished everything else you had 

to do. Lose the excuse, and get to work! 

Make exercise your morning habit. Set your 

alarm for a little bit earlier each morning, 

and try to perform some sort of physical 

exercise in that time frame. Eventually, 

your body will realize that this is when you 

wake up, this is what you will do, and it will 

grow to enjoy it. 

9 

DON’T LET INJURIES STOP YOU 

If you find yourself with an injury 

on one side of your body, continue to 

work out with the other to see benefits for 

both. Your body will send muscle building 

supplies to both sides, even if only one is 

working. You will see less of a build on the 

injured side, but a gain is a gain! 


USE WEIGHT BELTS CORRECTLY 

Only use weight belts for large muscle 

lift workouts. In these special cases, 

weight belts can actually help you to perform 

better, by helping to properly distribute 

weight and give you the center 

of balance that you need to be stronger. 

Weight belts can help reduce injury when 

weight lifting, because of the assistance 

they provide with balance. 

BREATHE WITH 

PROPER TECHNIQUE 

Train yourself to breathe correctly. Lay 

flat on your back and put something flat 

and heavy on your stomach, like a book. 

Practice making the book rise with each 

breath, until it becomes totally natural for 

you. Learning this simple technique will 

help you perform better in any physical 

task presented. 


51

IMPROVE YOUR 

JUMPING ABILITY 

Increase your ability to 

jump. Stand at the bottom 

of a set of stairs, and jump 

back and forth from the 

bottom step to the floor. 

Continue this until you feel 

comfortable jumping at 

that height. Once you are, 

move to something higher. 

Always make sure what 

you are jumping on is stable 

and secure. 

WORKOUT 

FOR RECOVERY 

To recover faster from 

heavy exercise, do a light 

work out the next day, that 

covers the same muscle 

group. On this second day, 

concentrate on very low 

weights, which are about 

twenty percent of your lifting 

capacity and two quick 

sets of twenty-five repetitions. 

Your muscles will 

heal faster because they 

will receive more blood 

and nutrients flowing 

through them. 

All in all, you should be 

able to achieve the level 

of fitness you want by using 

these tips. You can also 

utilize this advice in order 

to reach higher levels 

of fitness that you never 

thought you could achieve. 

Better health over the longterm 

depends on improving 

your lifestyle with new, better 

habits and activities like 

the ones suggested here. 


8 USEFUL POINTERS ON ENHANCING YOUR 

by 

Tess Kimble 

Follow Us: 

One especially scary aspect of aging 

is memory loss. Read this article for 

useful tips that will help you enhance 

your memory and prevent memory loss. 

What would our personal relationships 

be like without the 

ability to remember? Suffering 

from memory loss is not a necessary 

evil. The tips provided 

below will help you learn how to keep your 

memory strong and improve the way your 

brain functions. 


1 

KEEP NOTES 

If you’re looking for a way to remember 

things, writing them down is easy and 

effective. This task increases blood flow to 

parts of the brain that handle memory, and 

it gives it a little workout. Maintaining written 

records of key information is a great 

way to strengthen your power of recall. 

Write sticky notes to help yourself remember 

to complete tasks. The notes can then 

be placed with your designated spot for 

your keys, phone or computer. These notes 

can help you remember important things. 

2 

REFRESH YOUR 

ENVIRONMENT 

If you need to retain a great deal of information, 

you may find it useful to regularly 

switch up your study locations. You don’t 

want to limit yourself to associating certain 

information with certain areas. Instead, 

you want to keep your brain fresh. You will 

make the information something you will 

remember forever if you make a conscious 

effort to study in a variety of places. 

Use these tips to de-mystify losing weight. The 

simplest ways to lose weight are often the 

best. Just remember to keep going and not to 

get discouraged! 

 


When faced with a major study session, 

you can help retention of information by 

studying in a new location. Changing surroundings 

reinvigorates the mind, and 

causes long-term memory to be more efficacious. 

Your brain will be more alert and 

more receptive to the information when it 

is stimulated by a routine change. 


57

3 

THINK POSITIVE 

Try and rid your mind of any excess 

baggage, particularly that involving negative 

thoughts, to improve your memory. 

Studies show that people who are stressed 

or who have negative thoughts suffer more 

from memory loss than other people. Your 

doctor may be able to recommend relaxation 

techniques to improve your stress 

levels and outlook. 

4 

PACK ON BRAIN FOODS 

Eat the right foods for the health of your brain and it will reward you with a sharp 

and versatile memory. Healthy fats contribute significantly to your brain’s health. These 

good fats are found in things like fish, certain nuts, as well as olive oil and flax seed oil. 

Find ways to incorporate fish oil into your regular diet. If you find your memory is not what 

it used to be, you may not be getting enough Omega-3 fatty acids in your diet. These fatty 

acids are available in prescription form or over-the-counter. Most are in capsule form. 


5 

VISUALIZE THE INFORMATION 

A strategy that can boost your memory 

is to visualize concepts of what you’re 

trying to remember so that you can memorize 

it and recall it. Professional educators 

are well aware of that fact. Consider, 

for example, the frequent inclusion of illustrations 

and charts in textbooks. These 

are included to help the student visualize 

the information being presented. 

If graphs, images or charts are absent, 

create your own. 

6 

NEVER STOP 

LEARNING 

It’s vital that you keep learning 

on a daily basis long after 

you’ve left school. If you 

do not acquire new knowledge, 

the memory-storing 

part of your brain isn’t stimulated. 

Unless you keep 

your mind sharp, you may 

find it more difficult to recall 

information when you 

need it. 


59

7 

MAKE ASSOCIATION FOR NAMES 

If you struggle to remember names when meeting new people, try 

doing mental association with someone who has the same name. You 

can also make the mental association with someone famous. This link 

will help to bring up the identity of the new person when it is needed. 

8 

OUTLINE THE INFORMATION 

FOR EASY RECALL 

Making an outline of the materials 

you are trying to learn is a great way 

to boost your retention when you are 

studying. The exercise of analyzing and 

categorizing the information should 

help to secure it in your memory. The 

form and length of the outline is up 

to you, as long as you include the key 

information that you want to remember. 

You may get a chuckle over thinking about 

the potential of forgetting an anniversary 

or birthday, but when it happens to you 

in real life, it is not too funny anymore. 

This could be the beginning of memory 

loss. Use the advice provided here to 

protect your vital memories.

happening to you? If you’re concerned 

about losing your hair, 

don’t worry. Here are some great 

things you should consider trying 

if you’re among the many people 

who are worried about hair loss. 


1 VITAMIN C 

Vitamin C is a substance 

that is is extremely 

important if you are trying 

to prevent hair loss. 

Vitamin C plays a major 

role in the production of 

collagen, a vital ingredient 

to keeping hair healthy 

and alive. You can increase 

your intake of vitamin 

C by consuming citrus 

fruits or candy drops with 

vitamin C.

REMOVE PRODUCTS BEFORE BED 

If you are going to use hair styling 

products on your hair, make sure to take 

it all out of your hair at nighttime to prevent 

hair loss. Keeping these products in 

all night allow the chemicals to sink further 

into your scalp, which can make your hair 

fall out. 

4 

FIND THE RIGHT SHAMPOO 

Find a medicated shampoo or hair 

treatment that works for you. There are 

several top products on the market. That 

doesn’t mean, however, that these products 

are going to work for you. It may take a 

specialist consultation or a bit of research 

or experimentation, but you should find 

something that gives you results more so 

than everyone else. Everyone is different. 

No matter how you lost your hair or what 

type of product you’re using to boost its regrowth, 

you need to remain positive here 

and make sure that you follow all manufacturers’ 

recommendations to the letter. 

Don’t put your eggs all in one basket, but 

don’t lose your faith either. 


5 

INCREASE BIOTIN INTAKE 

You may want to increase your 

Biotin intake if you want to both treat and 

prevent hair loss. This vitamin helps promote 

more Keratin, the natural vitamin 

found in your hair. This vitamin helps to 

keep hair healthy and prevent it from falling 

out. Biotin is found in rice, milk, liver, 

and barley. 

6 

TAKE VITAMIN E 

Take Vitamin E supplements if you 

are suffering from hair loss. Vitamin E promotes 

healthy blood circulation, which, 

in turn, promotes healthy hair growth. It 

will also have the added benefit of keeping 

your skin healthy and youthful looking. 

7 

STIMULATE YOUR SCALP 

You need to stimulate the circulation 

in your scalp every morning if you’re 

hoping to re-grow hair. This doesn’t have 

to be a full-on massage. You only need to 

run your fingertips across your scalp in a 

circular motion for at least three minutes. 

This will get the blood flowing and stimulate 

hair growth. 

Massage your scalp with your fingertips every 

night before bed. This massage will increase 

the blood flow to your scalp, which 

helps provide nutrients to your follicles. If 

you massage your scalp for five to ten minutes 

every day, you may notice an increase 

in the quality of your hair. 


67

8 

CASTOR OIL AND ALMOND OIL 

A castor oil and almond oil mixture 

can help stop hair loss and make new hair 

grow in healthier. These natural ingredients 

work by making hair follicles stronger 

so that they will stay on your scalp. 

To properly use this method, just mix the 

two oils together and rub it into your scalp 

once a week. 

9 

USE HAIR TREATMENTS 

WITH CAUTION 

To prevent thinning hair, treat your hair 

gently. People who treat their hair with 

chemicals frequently over a long period of 

time, such as with coloring, perming and 

straightening, can cause damage to their 

hair that makes it more likely to break, 

which makes it thinner. If you do use harsh 

treatments on your hair, try to spread them 

out over time to minimize the damage. 


LOOK FOR 

SKIN SHEDDING 

To better understand the 

possible causes of hair 

loss, check whether it’s accompanied 

by skin shedding. 

If you’re experiencing 

skin shedding, or scaling, at 

the same time as hair loss, 

your hair loss may be related 

to a skin problem. In 

these cases, you should be 

able to cure the hair loss by 

curing the skin problem. 

CONSUME 

MORE PROTEIN 

Eat protein. Protein adds 

an excellent boost to your 

diet and helps the way your 

hair will look and grow. It 

strengthens hair and prevents 

it from falling out. 

Eat things like fish, meat 

and nuts for protein. You 

can also use a protein supplement 

in your drinks 

every day. 

TRY USING HONEY 

Honey can be a great 

natural substance to use on 

your scalp to stimulate hair 

growth. You do not want to 

use a lot of it though. Sugar 

can actually cause more of 

your hair to fall out. But the 

other ingredients in honey 

will act as a stimulant 

for your scalp. Rub some 

in, leave it in for an hour, 

and then rinse it out in 


the shower. 

The advice that has been 

given to you will allow you 

to properly manage your 

hair loss. If you use these 

tips, you can feel empowered 

again about this 

health condition, and that 

means an enhancement in 

your quality of life and freedom 

from constant worries 

about hair loss.

SHOWER BEFORE 

GOING TO BED 

Wash allergens off with a 

shower before bedtime. 

Pollen, dust, and mold 

spores can sit on your hair 

as well as on top of your 

skin, which can encourage 

allergies in your sleep. As 

long as you have a quick 

wash, you will have few 

problems with allergies.

3 

BE CAUTIOUS OF 

ALLERGY SYMPTOMS 

Sometimes, people are more apt to suffer 

from allergies as they age. Babies are often 

fed certain types of foods that do not trouble 

them with allergies, which can result in 

other types of allergies later on. As infants 

grow into children, their exposure to protein 

allergens increases and they might develop 

an allergy to pollen. If your son or daughter 

appears to show signs of pollen or spore allergies, 

be sure not to disregard the possibility 

of an allergic reaction just because there 

were no previous signs of a problem. 

4 

PROTECT YOURSELF 

FROM OLIVE TREES 

Olive trees are beautiful and add design 

elements to your landscape. They are especially 

popular in Western states. These 

trees produce a lot of pollen. Once you 

know what this tree is and looks like, you 

can better protect yourself from allergies. 

A lot of people find that using water hoses 

on trees with a lot of pollen can help tame 

the pollen. 

5 

NEVER SETTLE ON 

ONE ALLERGY PRODUCT 

If one allergy product does produce the desired 

effect, it’s not yet time to throw in the 

towel. There are many allergy medications 

out there, and different ones work better 

with different issues. Some incarnations of 

allergy medications include prescriptions 

drugs such as leukotriene blockers and 

steroids. Over the counter choices include 

tablets, eye drops and nasal sprays. 

6 

FIND NATURAL REMEDIES 

FOR YOUR TRIGGERS 

There are lots of natural remedies people 

can take to help them cope with their 

allergies. You will find that a lot of common 

allergy triggers have effective natural 

remedies associated with them that 

you can try. They will reduce a sneezing, 

runny nose, and itching and swelling in a 

natural way. 


75

7 

PACK FOODS 

WHEN YOU TRAVEL 

If your child has food allergies, 

pack safe foods when 

traveling. It can sometimes 

be hard to know the contents 

of particular types of 

foods. Not knowing all the 

ingredients of some foods 

you eat while you travel can 

amplify the risk of allergic 

reactions to food allergens 

such as soy and nuts, as 

well as many others. 

8 

USE SALINE 

SPRAY INSTEAD 

OF HUMIDIFIERS 

Many allergy sufferers may 

have been advised to put a 

humidifier in their rooms 

so that their airways can 

be moistened. This might 

not be something that you 

want to do because the humidifier’s 

mist lands on the 

carpet and can allow mold 

to grow. Instead of that, 

try spraying a saline spray 

every night before you 

go to sleep to keep nasal 

passages moist. 

9 

AVOID HAIR STYLING 

PRODUCTS 

If possible, avoid using styling 

products on your hair during 

allergy season. When you go 

outside during allergy season, 

many allergens will become 

embedded in your hair. Hair 

products can cause your hair to 

collect allergens. 


OPT OUT OF USING 

CARPETING AND RUGS 

Avoid carpeting or using rugs whenever 

and wherever possible. Dust and pollen 

tend to settle on carpets and rugs. If 

you have to have rugs in your home, make 

sure that you buy washable rugs and remember 

to wash them every couple of 

weeks to remove allergens. 

AVOID LATEX PRODUCTS 

IF YOU’RE ALLERGIC 

If you’re allergic to latex, be sure to avoid 

products containing it. You may not realize 

it, but you must steer clear of condoms, 

some clothing, and latex gloves, 

among other things. There are alternatives 

to many of these items, so ask a 

pharmacist for advice on where to find 

them. Also, be sure to read labels for latex 

warnings that will give you a heads-up. 

Once you have control of your allergy 

symptoms, you can have an enjoyable 

life! You don’t have to suffer with 

itchy eyes and a runny nose throughout 

all the great moments of your life! Take 

the necessary steps to combat your allergy 

symptoms so you can finally get the 

much needed break that you need.

that in mind, you need to read these tips 

to increase your odds of winning the fight

1 

MAINTAIN A HEALTHY LIFESTYLE 

Keeping your weight down, eating 

a healthy diet and getting enough exercise 

can not only make you feel great every 

day, but can also reduce your risk of 

cancer. Include bountiful servings of both 

fruits and vegetables in your diet, stay 

thoroughly hydrated, and workout a daily 

half hour to ward off cancer and enhance 

your general life and well-being. 

If you are active, your chance of being diagnosed 

with colon cancer goes down by

Always strive to maintain physical 

activity within your life. 

Beauty entails many different factors. This article 

will help you stay beautiful with simple and easy 

tips on creating your customized beauty routine. 

 


2 

PROTECT YOURSELF 

FROM THE HARMFUL SUN 

Melanoma, or skin cancer, is one very 

common and deadly form of cancer. 

Always cover your body and face in sunscreen. 

Wear a large brimmed hat to protect 

the skin on your scalp and face and 

wear sunglasses to protect your eyes. 


3 

BREAK-FREE FROM SMOKING 

Immediately stop smoking if your doctor tells you that you have cancer. 

Many cancer sufferers make the mistake thinking they don’t have to stop smoking 

because they’re already ill. Continuing to smoke still delivers carcinogens to 

your already weakened body and works against treatments. 

4 

WASH FRUITS 

AND VEGGIES 

BEFORE EATING 

Be mindful to the fact that 

fruits and vegetables from 

the store may not be ready 

for immediate consumption, 

as they may be tainted. 

Most produce is regularly 

treated with various pesticides 

to protect them from 

pests and diseases. Before 

consuming fruits and vegetables, 

wash them with mild 

soap and water to remove 

any pesticides or try buying 

foods that contain the least 

amount of pesticides. 


83

5 

KNOW THE 

SYMPTOMS 

OF CANCER 

Learn the symptoms for all 

major types of cancer so 

that you know when you 

need to see a doctor. If 

you go to the doctor when 

you first experience symptoms, 

you may be able to 

get cancer treated before 

it has progressed very far. 

This improves your chances 

for a long and happy life. 

Symptoms such as sudden 

or rapid weight loss, 

bloody stool, thin stools 

and abdominal cramping 

may point to colon cancer. 

If you have any of these 

symptoms, get examined 

by a doctor. 

6 

BE AWARE OF 

MEDICATION 

SIDE EFFECTS 

Be aware of certain changes 

that may take place as 

you undergo cancer therapy. 

Ask your doctor to explain 

all the side effects 

of any medication or other 

treatment he prescribes 

for your cancer. You may 

need to buy a wig, if you 

lose hair or wear makeup, if 

your complexion becomes 

very pale, and it makes 

you uncomfortable. 


7 

COMMUNICATE WITH 

YOUR LOVED ONES 

Be open and honest with your family and 

friends about your diagnosis. If you are 

strong and brave, you can feel kind of isolated; 

therefore, you should be honest 

about your feelings and utilize your support 

system. Open communication can provide 

a strong bond that will benefit both 

you and your loved ones. 

8 

FIND A GOOD DOCTOR 

Do not be afraid to change doctors 

if you are unhappy with the care or manner 

of your doctor. Your doctor should be 

available to you and not rush you or brush 

aside your concerns or fears. Your concerns 

must be addressed immediately. 

9 

JOIN A SUPPORT GROUP 

Whether you were just diagnosed or have been fighting cancer for a while, a support 

group can be a huge help. At a support group, you will be able to speak with other 

cancer patients and learn different techniques for coping with the disease. You can usually 

take family members with you to this group as well. 

Don’t be afraid to fight. Remember what you are fighting for and do not make any concessions 

to the disease. If you succumb to cancer, you’re going to lose a costly battle. 

Remember that your life literally hangs in the balance.

One way to improve your life is by getting 

rid of any bad habits that you have. Take a 

look of how you are living your life and the 

habits you have accumulated. Which ones 

do you think you could get rid of right now? 

3 

LEARN TO CALM YOURSELF 

Dealing with situations rationally is 

a skill that you can learn from others or 

teach yourself. Once you learn how to remain 

calm in the midst of stress, you’ll 

have the confidence needed to cope with 

anything that happens in your life. Make 

the time to stop and breathe. 

4 

SHOW RESPECT TO OTHERS 

You should always be respectful towards 

people, no matter what power they 

hold or what they could do for you. The 

way you treat them says more about you 

than it does about them. 


91

5 

HAVE A MOVIE DATE 

WITH A FRIEND 

If you are anxious about social interactions, 

try just going to a movie with a friend. 

Movies are social settings, but they do not 

require conversation or uncomfortable socialization. 

It can also be an effective way 

for you to become more comfortable with 

being near a large group of people. 

6 

LEARN TO SACRIFICE FOR OTHERS 

Demonstrate altruism to improve 

your life. There are times when you may 

have to sacrifice something and simply 

care for someone else. Inner growth is increased 

by sacrificing your own comfort 

and turning your focus to the needs of others, 

while maintaining your core values. 

7 

CREATE YOUR LIFE GOALS 

AND WORK ON IT 

Make a decision about where you want to 

go in life and stick with it. You can put all 

the thought into it and devise a perfect 

plan for life, but if you never put it into action, 

then you will not see results. Take action 

with the goal of realizing your dreams. 

8 

BE BRAVE TO TAKE ON RISKS 

Ultimate happiness may lie in assuming 

a manageable amount of risk. Many 

people stay in their comfort zones to avoid 

rejection or failure, so they aren’t as happy 

or fulfilled. Taking risks requires a lot of 

courage, which will help you become happy 

in the long run. 


9 

DON’T FOCUS AND STRESS ON MISTAKES 

If you overreact you might be stressed for no reason. Analyze the situation carefully, 

and deal with the stress. A mistake isn’t the end of the world. Most mistakes can 

be rectified, and many can be remedied in a way that ends up better than if you hadn’t 

made a mistake to begin with. Instead of focusing on the things you’ve lost, remind yourself 

of everything you have. 

LEARN HOW TO 

LISTEN TO YOURSELF 

It is well known that being a good listener 

is an excellent character trait to develop. 

Listening definitely applies when developing 

yourself. Listen to your thoughts 

and learn to recognize your desires. If you 

don’t, you will not know what you need, 

nor will you improve yourself. 

PRACTICE WHAT YOU BELIEVE 

The principles you believe in need 

to be put into practice. Everyone has values 

and beliefs in which they hold dear. 

When your core beliefs are well-founded, 

your self-esteem improves. This also 

helps to make you a consistent person. 

This is an essential character trait. 

To get the most from your personal development 

efforts, be sure to aim high 

and value what is best. Make reaching 

your goals one of the most important aspects 

of your life. Give some of these tips 

a chance and if you notice any change in 

feelings or your thoughts make a note 

about it. Refrain from being too hard 

on yourself.

TO MANAGE AND PREVENT 

PANIC ATTACKS 

by 


Follow Us: 

Living with panic attacks actually takes a great deal of strength. Learn how to 

prevent your panic attacks with the tips provided in this article. 

Experiencing panic attacks indicates that you may need to learn how to better 

deal with your anxiety, not that something is amiss. Certainly with the state 

of the world today, it’s not surprising that so many people suffer from these 

kinds of attacks. This article is designed to give practical tips for stopping 

panic attacks before they happen.

Going for chiropractic care on 

a regular basis is beneficial 

for your health. Learn more 

about chiropractic care and 

some home remedies that you 

can do. 

 


1 

CONTROL YOUR THOUGHTS 

Many people are able to analyze their feelings and then 

control their attacks. Try reminding yourself that feelings are 

subjective and do not have ultimate reign over your life. Give 

yourself a positive mantra and repeat it until you feel it start 

to sink in. You can go through an attack quickly if you focus on 

positive thoughts. Know that you will get through it and concentrate 

on keeping your control. 


2 

TRY BREATHING AND 

RELAXATION TECHNIQUES 

If you are having trouble dealing 

with your panic attacks and do not 

know what to do, try to learn proper 

breathing and relaxation techniques. 

Dealing with panic attacks 

is possible when you figure out how 

to control your breathing. Although 

controlling panic attacks can be 

difficult, learning breathing techniques 

can make the difference. 

Make sure you control your breathing 

because this will help make the 

attack end sooner. To gain control 

while you are having an attack, take 

deep breaths. 

3 

STOP THINKING ABOUT 

YOUR PANIC ATTACKS 

Many times, the feelings of having a panic 

attack are what bring on a panic attack. 

Stop thinking about the sources of your 

attacks and about the dreaded worry. 

Your thoughts are powerful, and if you 

keep thinking about panic attacks, you 

may bring one on. These thoughts are 

similar to trying to get a song out of your 

head. The more you think about something, 

the harder it is to rid yourself of 

those types of thoughts. 

4 

KEEP TRACK OF YOUR TRIGGERS 

Always be aware of your feelings 

and emotions, so you can be alerted to the 

onset of a panic attack and stop it in its 

tracks. Monitor your thoughts and feelings 

leading up to an attack and record them in 

writing. Take note of these feelings once a 

week, so you know what starts your panic 

attacks and how to steer clear of them. 


99

5 

HAVE YOUR 

SUPPORT SYSTEM 

If you sense an impending 

panic attack, try and 

find somebody to talk to, 

if at all possible. Talking 

to someone that cares 

about you will help fight 

the stress and anxiety. You 

will gain even more benefits 

if someone will hug 

you. Human touch can be 

all it takes to make you 

feel comforted and secure. 

Be careful not to isolate 

yourself as this can increase 

your feelings of 

stress and anxiety. Having 

supportive people to help 

you with your anxiety will 

make it much easier to control 

your panic attacks. That 

is why having friends is 

so important. 

6 

PRACTICE DEALING 

WITH PANIC ATTACKS 

It is important to practice 

techniques for dealing with 

panic attacks before you 

are actually experiencing 

one. Practicing a relaxing 

exercise when you do not 

feel stressed will help you 

focus on relaxing when you 

are experiencing an attack. 

Practice on your breathing 

techniques as well. 

7 

START SHARING 

WHAT YOU KNOW 

Share your panic-attack 

knowledge with others 

through writing. Create a 

blog, pen an e-book, or even 

become a public speaker 

and hold seminars. You 

can overcome your panic 

attacks through this sense 

of achievement. 


8 

JOIN SUPPORT GROUPS 

FOR PANIC ATTACKS 

A lot of different things can cause panic 

attacks. Find new techniques for tackling 

your panic attacks by joining a support 

group. Check out the Internet and see if 

there is a nearby support group for panic 

attack sufferers. Chatting with others that 

have similar problems can provide valuable 

information that you can use, and 

also give you a chance to find emotional 

support from others who suffer from 

panic attacks. 

9 

ENCOURAGE KIDS TO 

EXPRESS WHAT THEY FEEL 

A child with severe issues related to stress 

requires attention. They could be bothered 

by something that is happening, and the 

panic attack can be this problem manifesting 

itself because they don’t feel like they 

can express it. Make sure your child feels 

free to express emotions with you honestly 

and openly. 

If you are suffering from panic attacks, it 

does not mean that you have some intrinsic 

flaw, or that you are weak. Living with 

panic attacks actually takes a great deal of 

strength. By implementing the advice offered 

in this article, you will be better able 

to cope the next time you feel the panic 

start to rise! They may even go away entirely 

if you keep at it.

One especially scary aspect of aging is memory 

loss. Read this article for useful tips that will help 

you enhance your memory and prevent 

memory loss. 

 


1 

EAT BREAKFAST EVERYDAY 

Breakfast is the most important meal 

of the day, especially if you want to lose 

weight. When you wake up early and eat 

a full breakfast you allow your digestive 

system to wake up and start metabolizing 

food. This lets your body burn calories 

from the beginning of the day rather than 

from lunchtime onward. 

2 

AVOID EATING AT 

UNHEALTHY RESTAURANTS 

A good way to lose weight is to avoid eating 

out at unhealthy restaurants, especially 

all you can eat buffets. All you can eat 

buffets encourage you to eat as much as 

you can in one sitting, and that’s a surefire 

way to put on a lot of fat. 

3 

TAKE UP A SPORT 

If you want to become more fit, take 

up a sport that you find enjoyable. Playing 

a competitive sport will help make your 

workout seem more fun. Also, if you have 

a team that’s counting on you every week, 

you’re more likely to go even when you’re 

tired than if you were doing a solitary 

workout. 


4 

AVOID EATING LATE AT NIGHT 

Avoiding food late at night will help 

you lose weight in a hurry. Late-night 

snacking can really pack on the pounds. If 

you can cut out those midnight snacks and 

late-night dinners, you can begin to shed 

those pounds quickly. 

5 

TOSS THOSE HIGH CALORIE FOODS 

Go ahead and throw out those high 

calorie foods. It might feel wasteful, but 

if you are serious about losing weight it 

might be a good idea to hurry and get rid 

of any foods that might tempt you to stray 

from your diet. Clean out your fridge and 

pantries to make room for healthier foods. 

If you are out at a restaurant with a friend 

and you have the urge to order a dessert, 

you can ask your friend if they would like to 

split one with you. Having a half of a dessert 

will be a nice treat, and you will only 

consume half of the calories. 

6 

DEAL WITH STRESS IN 

A HEALTHY WAY 

In order to successfully lose weight, it is 

crucial that you find a healthy way to deal 

with stress. In today’s modern world, everyone 

experiences stress. Overweight people 

usually turn to food as a way to comfort 

themselves during stressful times. By finding 

alternative ways to deal with stress, 

such as, meditation, listening to music, 

playing an instrument, taking a hot bath, 

or reading a book, you can ensure that you 

don’t break your diet. 


107

7 

KEEP A FOOD DIARY 

In order to increase your chances 

of success at weight loss, consider keeping 

a food diary. By keeping track of what 

you eat and when, you are better able to 

see food consumption habits and trends 

that could be potentially sabotaging your 

efforts. Additionally, by knowing that you 

will be recording everything you eat, you 

make yourself accountable for every food 

choice. This accountability can have a very 

powerful motivating effect on your weight 

loss efforts. 

8 

TAKE ADVANTAGE OF CAFFEINE 

Utilizing caffeine can aid in your 

weight loss goals. Caffeine is a natural 

substance found in coffee and various 

supplements. Not only can it help boost 

your metabolism, it can fuel you for your 

workouts and reduce your pain threshold 

for workouts which allows you to increase 

your intensity. Make sure to drink your 

coffee black or with skim milk to maximize 

its properties. 

9 

MAKE SMALL CHANGES 

TO BURN CALORIES 

An easy way to add to your weight loss efforts 

is to make small changes. This could 

be walking up the stairs instead of riding in 

the elevator, or parking farther out in the 

parking lot instead of fighting for a spot 

right in front of the building. Little tweaks 

like this can burn more calories and help 

you lose weight. 


EAT MORE FRUITS AND VEGETABLES 

An easier way to create a diet for losing weight is to think of what to add to your 

diet rather than what to remove. Try to eat 5-9 servings of fruits and vegetables a day. 

This will give you lots of needed vitamins and minerals, as well as filling you up so you 

can’t eat as much junk. 

Use these tips to de-mystify losing weight. The simplest ways to lose weight are often the 

best. Just remember to keep going and not to get discouraged when you don’t see the 

results on the scale that you want to see. Make sure you stay committed and you WILL 

start losing the weight.

If you really want to improve 

your personality and your 

life in general, these personality 

development tips can 

be of great help in achieving 

your goal. 

 


1 ALWAYS 

MAKE DIETARY 

CHANGES SLOWLY 

Try not to do a complete 

overhaul overnight. You 

also don’t want to provide 

yourself with too much of a 

shock by eating foods that 

you may not even like. Add 

healthier items and remove 

unhealthy items from your 

diet slowly until you’ve got 

a healthier diet. 

2 

HAVE A PROTEIN 

BAR HANDY 

It’s a smart idea to always 

have some protein bars or 

similar concentrated food 

in your computer bag if 

you travel a great deal. You 

might already know that actual 

meals are difficult to 

find in airports. You may be 

tied up in security, waiting 

for your flight or flying on 

a plane that does not serve 

meals. Keep a few bars with 

you just in case you get hungry 

or need some energy. 

3 

EAT A VARIETY OF PROTEIN IN A WEEK 

Mix up the meats that you eat to include fish and poultry. Eggs are a wonderful 

source of protein. Researchers say a single egg daily isn’t harmful to health. Sometimes, 

you will want to refrain from eating meat on a particular day. Replace meat with nuts, 

seeds, peas, beans or peanut butter. 


4 

NEVER SKIP BREAKFAST 

When assembling a diet plan that includes 

the right amount of calories and 

proper nutrition, it is critical that you include 

breakfast every day. Breakfast certainly 

is an important meal. It provides 

your metabolism with the boost it needs 

to start the day. 

5 

LOAD UP ON INULIN 

Make sure to add a naturally-occurring 

nutrient known as inulin to your diet. 

You can get this nutrient from artichokes 

and garlic. It’s a carb that helps you lose 

weight and keep your digestion in check. 

Garlic also has a positive impact on your 

immune system. You can always blanch 

garlic to reduce its smell if you’re worried 

about your breath, or you can take a 

non-odorous garlic supplement. 

6 

SUBSTITUTE GROUND BEEF WITH TURKEY 

Replacing ground beef with turkey has numerous health benefits, but some are put 

off by the turkey’s dryness. To solve this problem, make the turkey juicier by preparing 

it with onions and extra-virgin olive oil. The flavor will be more tasty and you will consume 

less fat. 

7 

GO FOR BAKED, NOT FRIED! 

Make sure your diet consists of eating foods that are baked instead of fried. Baked 

goods have fewer calories, less oil and are lighter in carbohydrates than fried goods. 

Eating baked foods everyday will also provide your body with more energy. 


115

8 

AVOID USING OIL 

Saute your vegetables in a small amount of water instead of artery blocking oil. 

Vegetables prepared by boiling or steaming are just as tasty as their fried counterparts. 

If you must use oil in your vegetables, use either vegetable oil or olive oil. 

9 

COOK YOUR 

MUSHROOMS PROPERLY 

When preparing mushrooms, always make 

sure they are adequately cooked. Cooking 

them very well will help break down some 

of the carcinogens. These natural toxins 

could otherwise be harmful to your health. 

You need to watch your health. This will 

make it easier to burn fat. 

MORE SLEEP AND LESS ALCOHOL 

Every day, get plenty of sleep and 

reduce your alcohol intake. Alcohol increases 

oil production on your face and enlarges 

your pores. Larger pores allow more 

dirt to accumulate and can cause infection. 

It is important to sleep at least seven hours 

daily and drink no more than one alcoholic 

drink a day. 


PREP YOUR FOOD 

THE HEALTHY WAY 

A change in meal preparation methods can 

have a great effect on the body’s nutrition. 

Steaming or boiling foods will cook them 

without adding any extra fat. By choosing 

healthier methods of preparing food, one 

can ensure good nutrition. 

EAT SMALLER 

MEALS FREQUENTLY 

These smaller meals, while easier on the digestive 

process, also help control your weight 

as you typically burn off more calories than 

you are taking in. Your risk of diabetes, hypertension, 

and other diseases are reduced if 

you are at a healthy weight. Eating frequently 

can help you avoid getting too hungry so that 

you do not binge on bad foods. 

You must always stay up to date with your 

nutritional education. The hints above are 

just the beginning of your long-term journey 

into learning how to eat healthy. Find 

more information, so you can feed your 

body and mind.

Your risk of developing cancer is affected by the lifestyle choices that you make. Here are some tips that you 

can follow in your battle against cancer. 

 


1 

SMOOTH TAN 

Exfoliation is the first step in applying 

self-tanner. This will help to create a 

smooth and more defined appearance. 

This will allow the faux tan to appear even 

and streak-free. This will authenticate 

your golden glow and even make it last 

much longer. 

2 

MORE EXPRESSIVE EYES 

An eyelash curler is worth the money. 

Lots of people forget the difference an 

eyelash curler can make. Using an eyelash 

curler will help make your eyes appear bigger 

and more expressive. It is also possible 

to buy heated eyelash curlers that are said 

to provide a long-lasting curl. 


3 

SHINY EYEBROWS 

Before going to bed, 

spread some Vaseline over 

your eyebrows. Your eyebrows 

will have a shiny 

and improved appearance. 

Be careful not to 

spread Vaseline elsewhere 

on your face to avoid 

acne breakouts. 

4 

GLOWING LIPS 

In order to enhance 

the appearance of your lips, 

use shimmery white eyeshadow 

on the center of the 

top lip. The applied white 

eyeshadow will improve the 

reflection off of your lip. 

This will also give you the 

glow that you desire. 

5 

FRESH FACE 

If you plan on going 

out for fun right after work, 

use a brush to dust matte 

powder on your face to get 

rid of oil. You can make your 

cheekbones have some emphasis 

with a gentle application 

of shimmery powder 

on your cheek temples. 

Doing so will give you a 

fresh and sharp facial look. 

6 

FACE ENHANCING 

HAIRSTYLE 

The right type of haircut 

can make a face look slimmer. 

Choose a cut with 

sleek, elongated lines, with 

the longest layers reaching 

somewhere between your 

jawline and shoulders. Use 

low-lights and highlights as 

appropriate to frame your 

face. These will look good 

and will make your face 

more attractive. 


123

7 

NAIL TEAR FIX 

When your fingernail tears, use a teabag 

to repair it. First, empty a teabag of 

its leaves. Then, cut a piece of the teabag 

that is the size of the tear. Simply, place 

your patch over the tear and coat the entire 

nail, including the patch, with nail 

strengthener or clear nail polish. 

8 

LONGER AND STRONGER NAILS 

To get those nice long fingernails, 

use Vaseline to massage into your cuticles 

each week. By feeding the nail in this fashion, 

you are encouraging nail growth. Use 

a top coat when you polish your nails to 

prevent chipping. 

9 

HEALTHY-LOOKING HAIR 

As a man who enjoys looking good, 

you are sure to be concerned with the appearance 

of your hair. If your hair is dry, be 

sure to use a good, nourishing conditioner. 

There is also some handy hair conditioning 

sprays that you can use for a quick fix of 

your dry hair. 

COOLING BEAUTY 

Keep some of your beauty products 

in the refrigerator. You definitely want to 

do this in summertime! Keeping toners, lotions 

and oils refrigerated can allow you to 

use them even in a heatwave. The cooling 

sensation is sure to leave your skin feeling 

refreshed and chilled. 


LONG-LASTING NAIL POLISHES 

If you notice one of your nail polishes 

starting to get sticky and thick, you can 

put some nail polish remover in it. Only 

add a tiny bit, replace the lid and shake. 

This helps add a few additional applications 

for your nail polish. 

CONCEALER HELPINGS 

Short on concealer? Use the foundation 

stuck in the threads of your makeup 

cap. When you are out of regular concealer, 

the collected foundation in the cap 

serves as a great replacement. This makeup 

is thick so it will act as a concealer to 

cover any blemishes. 

PINEAPPLES FOR LOSING WEIGHT 

When trying to lose some weight, 

an excellent food to add to your diet is a 

pineapple. This fruit is sweet and delicious, 

and the large amount of bromelain it contains 

makes it great for dieters. This nutrient 

helps your body digest fat, starch and 

protein. Therefore, you should consume 

a lot of pineapples to help your digestion 

and improve your metabolism. 

GOING CAFFEINE-FREE 

Try and stay away from caffeine 

if you want to improve your beauty. 

Caffeine can age you, make you look 

tired, and make you feel jittery. Limit 

tea and coffee to one cup a day. Think 

about alternatives to your usual drinks, 

such as green tea or decaf coffee. 

Hopefully, you have learned a few simple 

beauty tips that can help you to look your 

best. After reading these tips, you should 

now have an understanding of how to 

create a beauty regimen that will work 

for you. More importantly, keep in mind 

that real beauty is a result of taking care 

of your body on a daily basis. And by being 

yourself - because you are beautiful!
