You are not alone. Sleeplessness and insomnia have become major health problems in the U.S. and around the world. The Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) estimates that as many as 10% of the population suffer from chronic insomnia. Additionally, almost a quarter of Americans report not getting the 7-8 hours of recommended sleep at night. Many of the sufferers often resort to taking sleeping pills or specially prepared herbs to help fall asleep....

If you’ve said yes, at least once, you’re not alone. Owing to our increasingly sedentary lifestyles, a majority of us feel tired almost all the time – for no reason at all. And the culprit behind this endless exhaustion might be your lymphatic system. How The Lymphatic System Is Keeping Us Alive We all know that we’ve got red and white blood cells swimming inside us and the job of the white blood cells is to protect our bodies from all sorts of harm....

Things you have struggled with have become my struggles, while all the wonderful things you accomplished in your short life so far have brought me more joy than anything I could have ever imagined.

Living a healthy lifestyle is not complicated. To lose weight, you simply need to do more (be more active), and eat less. How you do that is entirely up to you. In the process of finding your own healthy routines, don’t get sidetracked or confused by new workouts or fad diets that claim their methods are the only way to stay fit. From a long-term perspective such programs are incredibly difficult to maintain and can also be costly if you have to source out hard to find ingredients....

Projects on our to-do lists tend to stay in the forefront of our minds. Before any work is done, we can become overwhelmed by the size of a project, and usually begin to build it up as something bigger than is actually is. Next time you find a seemingly big project popping into your head, instead of just stressing over the amorphous blob of “big, undefined project” start breaking it down....

Try taking the test below and find out your relationship score: Grims Questionnaire Of Relationship Satisfaction Apart from the test, a little soul searching is important in determining whether you are where you need to be in life and what you can do to improve. Why Do People Settle For Less? Why would someone settle for someone who doesn’t match who they were looking for in the first place? Well, before continuing, it’s important to note that you’ll NEVER find someone who meets your idyllic image of your perfect partner to the letter....

Where does Argan oil come from? Argan oil derives from argan trees in Morocco. The center or “nut” of the argan fruit is removed and cracked open. Inside are the kernels or seeds. The seeds are pressed to extract the oil. This time-consuming, laborious task generates employment and much-needed revenue for Morocco. Women make up the main job sector, and they have formed government-backed cooperatives to keep up with the high demand....

Conflict is necessary for creativity and development; however, it has to be constructive. America was founded on combining old ways of thinking and producing something new. The idea isn’t to compromise, but to take the different perspectives and create hybrids. Constructive conflict could even resolve the seemingly elusive healthcare issue that has divided our nation. There are two stages to harness constructive conflict successfully: rules and conversation. Stage 1 is to establish the basic rules for differing parties to communicate....

Assertiveness is a skill of those people who can express themselves straightforwardly, without stepping on the rights of others. However, not everyone knows the importance of assertiveness for both personal and professional lives. Some people find it difficult to be assertive. But what most of us don’t know is that assertiveness is not a unique trait a person can possess that others don’t have. It is actually a skill which we can learn....

Women have gained their place in the work force, even if men are still trying to shake us out. Women still struggle with the stigma of their place being “at home.” But in less than a century, we have made great strides in staking our place with the big boys. Females didn’t start entering the work force until after the civil war.[1] Women of color had to support themselves in their newly gained freedom, and female immigrants began to follow suit....

What if we were to tell you that this is due to hormones? Hormones don’t only affect women going through menopause. They play a significant role for everyone from birth to death, and we have to learn how to live with them. If you can’t seem to lose weight (or you gain weight seemingly without cause), you might be suffering from a hormonal imbalance. A big indicator that you have hormonal imbalance is belly fat....
