Tips to Help Avoid High Blood Pressure
Tips to Help Avoid High Blood Pressure
We all know that high blood pressure is not a good thing – but what exactly is high blood pressure and how is it caused? The heart is responsible for the essential task of pumping blood into the arteries and blood pressure is the force – or pressure - of blood pushing against the walls of the blood vessels.
High blood pressure symptoms are also caused by factors which are within our control - such as an unhealthy diet, being overweight, or a high alcohol intake. Too much salt in the diet is also a contributing factor – most Americans consume more salt than they need. A lack of exercise can also contribute to it – and as everyone knows, stress is one of the major causes of high blood pressure.
High blood pressure – also known as hypertension - is potentially dangerous, as the heart has to work harder to pump blood. As the heart is overworked, it may eventually lead to heart failure and the hardening of arteries. And high blood pressure can also lead to such things as poor vision and kidney failure.
Blood pressure readings generally have two numbers – which confuse some people. Normal blood pressure is considered to be 120/80, and the numbers are measured in millimeters of mercury, or mmHg.

How to Survive a Heart Attack when Alone ...
A Piece of Message.
Everyone is to be aware how to survive a Heart Attack when alone:
If everyone who read this, pass it to as many people as you can, I bet you can help save lifes.
Let's say it's 6:15 p.m. and you're driving home (alone of course), after an unusually hard day on the job. You're really tired, upset and frustrated.
Suddenly you start experiencing severe pain in your chest that starts to radiate out into your arm and up into your jaw. You are only about five miles from the hospital nearest your home; unfortunately you don't know if you'll be able to make it that far. What can you do?
The following may save your life. Since many people are alone when they suffer a heart attack, this article seemed to be in order. Without help, the person whose heart stops beating properly and who begins to feel faint, has only about 10 seconds left before losing consciousness.
However, these victims can help themselves by coughing repeatedly and very vigorously. A deep breath should be taken before each cough, and the cough must be deep and prolonged, as when producing sputum from deep inside the chest. Deep breaths and a cough must be repeated about every two seconds without let up until help arrives, or until the heart is felt to be beating normally again.
Deep breaths get oxygen into the lungs and coughing movements squeeze the heart and keep the blood circulating. The squeezing pressure on the heart also helps it regain normal rhythm. In this way, the heart attack victims can get to a hospital.

Problem-Solving Techniques
Problem-Solving Techniques
http://gallery.bizhat.com/data/1783/Radhika21.jpg
Would you like a few good problem-solving techniques that will increase your brain power? Do you ever run out of good ideas, or go around in circles trying to come up with a solution for a simple problem? Find one or two of the problem-solving techniques below that you like, and get in the habit of using them.
Using Your Unconscious Mind
Let your unconscious mind do your problem-solving, using one of several techniques. First, try outlining a problem in your mind before going to sleep, and telling your brain to go to work. Einstein had good luck with this technique, sometimes getting the "ah-ha" insight while shaving the next morning. Next, instruct your mind to keep working on the problem while you are doing other things. There is more than we know going on inside our heads. Finally, work on problems when you are in a drowsy state. This can result in more creative solutions.
Systematic Problem-Solving Techniques
Challenge your assumptions. For example, if you aren't making enough money and you assume you need another job, ask "do I really need a better job?" Maybe you can get a raise, or you can make the job that you already have better. A business on the side might be another option. Don't let your assumptions limit your possible solutions.
Break big problems down into smaller ones. Buying a house is a big move that is really a bunch of small steps. This is true of many problems. Start by addressing all of the components of a problem individually, and it may not seem so overwhelming. This makes it easier to motivate yourself.
Ask three people for their opinions and/or advice. They may have good ideas, but in any case this helps you be sure that you are not overlooking anything obvious.
Write down the problem. Then find another way to express it and write that down. Continue with all the possible solutions and any ideas that come to mind. Write EVERYTHING, then come back to it later to pick the diamonds out of the dirt.
Change your perspective. Pretend you are very rich, very poor, a child, a visitor from another planet. How would you see the problem from this new perspective. Einstein imagined riding on a beam of light to come up with his theory of relativity, so this technique has been known to work.

Don't always be thinking of your pets, siblings, parents, or house.
Bring personal items to the house you are staying at so it isn't like you are a million miles away.
Have fun!
Camp can be tough enough. If this is your first time, talk to someone who has been before and have your parents talk to their's.
Make sure you pack enough linens for camp. Not sleeping comfortably makes it tough at night. Make sure if you need linens you pack fitted and flat sheets, regular size pillow(s), pillow cases, mattress pad (so you aren't on top of the noisy plastic one) a light blanket and a regular blanket. Camp sleeping can sometimes get very cold at night.
If you are shy, you can change in the rest room. Make sure you bring night clothes that you can wear around other people and outside should there be a fire drill. You aren't at home so something that has tops and bottoms is more appropriate. You can also bring a robe.
If this is your first trip at camp, see if your parents will let you take a blanket from their bed.
Pay close attention to any packing list provided. This will give you an idea about what things from home you can bring and what is necessary to be comfortable.
Bring clothes, a book or two and other necessities. Don't bring a lot of toys.
If you get really homesick, ask your parents and your friends' parents if you can be picked up early the next morning (but not too early).
Just remember, you will see your guardian soon!

This single- line mantra helps in day-to-day life situations and getting the best out
I was getting really angry. My husband had come home late from office and even after that, he was busy talking on the phone with a friend. Hey, didn’t I deserve some time? The more I listened to him laugh with his friend, the more irritated I got. I had switched off my laptop as he had come, and he wasn’t even interested in being with me! I stood in the balcony, tears flowing from my eyes, watching from the corner of my eye, expecting him to come and comfort me. Something suddenly struck me. There is always a better way. Just a single line. And yet, it just seemed so true, so right and yes, so applicable in my current situation. Surely, there was a better way. I immediately wiped the tears and decided to do something that would make me happy. Switching on the television I started watching a laughter show. Within minutes, I was laughing so hard that my sides were aching. Hearing my merriment, Arun quickly hung up the phone and sat next to me and we laughed together. I was amazed. A single line had got me out of my self-created depressionand given me what I wanted.

The next day, my little seven-year-old students from the school in which I was then teaching had had a gruelling sports session and as they came back into class, huffing, puffing and pink-cheeked they informed me, “Ma’am, today we are too tired. We don’t want to study anymore.” I was teaching them about insects and a particular amount of portion had to be finished that day. I was almost going to say, “Nothing doing, darlings, we need to finish learning about ants and butterflies.”
And I stalled. There is a better way, I told myself. I told them, “Okay. No more studying today. All we will do is go to the school garden.” There was a wild cry of joy from the little ones. I smiled and led them to the garden. That day I taught them the entire week’s portion! For amongst the greenery were ants crawling past and butterflies fluttering by. And I am sure, the children will never forget what they learnt. Perhaps, because they didn’t even realise they were learning!
The very next day, I once again experienced the potency of my simple mantra. I needed to go home from a deserted suburb in Mumbai and it was getting very late. When a rickshaw came by I quickly signalled him to stop. To my disappointment he refused to take me. I was so frustrated that I almost blurted some strong words when something stopped me. There is always a better way. I calmed myself and told the rickshaw driver my plight and how I needed to reach home and didn’t want to wait all alone in the deserted area. To my utmost joy and surprise he asked me to hop in.
Whatever you are doing can be done still better. So keep repeating there is a better way. And you will watch, with wonder, how you suddenly find yourself more proactive than reactive and somehow getting the best out of people and situations. All because you told yourself that there is a better way.
