Society focuses too much on physical health and no one’s blaming them. We need to take care of our bodies first if we want to achieve more in life. It is but a must because we can only count on ourselves to do everything for us, right? However, a person has different aspects that need to be considered too not only what’s physiologic and visible to the naked eye especially that they can also make or break a person. Mental health is one of those aspects. Total health care is necessary, frankly. When neglected, a person may start manifesting physical symptoms of the mental demons that have been silently bothering them unbeknownst to others. A lot of people are actually suffering …

Sleeping Needs Differ For Everyone
People often complain of not getting enough sleep despite the many modern contrivances that are supposed to make life easier and better. The funny irony in modern life is that the brains of this generation and that of previous years developed technologies that saved us from doing as much manual labor as we can yet we still end up feeling tired and sleepless at the end of the day. We lose more sleep now with the myriad of devices and the popularity of the web that keeps us busy every minute of the day we can’t seem to get the relief we need from sleep especially the young ones who are easily tempted. Those who realize this contrasting reality attempt to overcome …
Undermining Children’s Mental Health
Adults today can still remember what it was like to be young kids even if it is just but a distant memory. It is a fun and enjoyable experience especially that you have little worries and only thought about playing the entire time. However, not all kids are fortunate enough to enjoy that carefree and sheltered life. Many children today are exposed to violence or aren’t given enough attention or needs are unmet because some parents are not just ready for this added responsibility they have so willingly made. Even back then, there were already children who suffered from poor mental health although it wasn’t given much attention nor hyped up because the technology back then was limited and people weren’t as …
Turn Weed Into Money
The stigma associated with weed is gradually being erased in the minds of the public as more and more US states declare it legal to grow, sell, and use marijuana either for medical or recreational use. Gone were the times when you’d be highly criticized for using it or you may even end up in jail if you are unfortunate enough to be caught. This change in mindset is evident everywhere from casual talks about weeds and its use and the now ever-growing and lucrative cannabis business that makes money faster than you can grow the weeds itself. And weed growers breed different varieties of cannabis as well that caters to different needs of its end users. Those who are simply after …
Find Out How You Can Beat Snoring
If there is one thing that will last our lifetime aside from our own life, it is definitely our health. And ironically, the state of your health determines how long you get to live in this world. Money is irrelevant once you are on your deathbed. And our health deteriorates pretty fast if we don’t get to sleep adequately at night aside from eating healthy and nutritious food. Sleep is an excellent recuperation activity as it gives the human body a chance to rest and recharge for what lies ahead the next day. Unfortunately, people don’t always get to enjoy a good night’s sleep because of snoring.
Snoring is the sound a person makes from the turbulent airflow that triggers the vibration …
Self-Help Beats Chronic Fatigue
The world is becoming smaller and smaller as the days go by. Blame it on technology and increasing globalization, we feel that our time is not enough to finish all our tasks at hand. As a result, we feel chronically stressed and exhausted not to mention the hassles of the daily commute, exposure to pollution, work/school/personal stressors, health issues, poor food choices, and lack of exercise that take its toll on our body that isn’t relieved by rest or sleep. It’s no wonder you are susceptible to sickness because your immune system is virtually non-existent anymore or more often than not in a really poor shape.
Although it often goes undiagnosed, many individuals today actually suffer from chronic fatigue syndrome. It’s …
Trumpcare Continues To Be A Threat To Democrats
The health and well-being of all Americans had been under fire since President Trump assumed office and he made it clear to all Republicans he wants Obamacare or the Affordable Care Act repealed at all costs, even against expert conference opinions. When that happens, many poor Americans will lose access to the most basic of health care services once Trumpcare gains the upper hand and eventually gets approved in the Senate. The Republicans themselves had a hard time agreeing on the finer points of Trumpcare right from the start that Donald Trump himself even had to constantly threaten some Republican congressmen who can’t make up their minds to pass the bill or else…
Well, the Republicans are the majority now especially …
Abortion In The Eyes Of Trump
Many aren’t a fan of President Trump but they have no choice but to put up with him – seeing his face on TV every day and hearing about his policies – because he won the last Presidential election fair and square. He is known to voice out his distaste for people staying in the country illegally, which is why it wasn’t surprising that among his first policies upon assuming office involved travel bans and more travel bans.
He doesn’t take science seriously as well. So, EPA now has to say goodbye to government funding and there goes decades-worth of climate change initiatives down the drain. Now, he’s got his eyes set on abortion policies. Others may be torn about this restriction …
Retirement Home For The Queer At Heart
We all try to delay aging in as much as we can. We try different skin care regimens, take anti-aging supplements or eat healthily to make sure we can put off aging for as long as we could. Unfortunately, aging is but a normal process and that’s where all of us are headed later in life.
The trend nowadays is for the elderly to stay in retirement homes when they can no longer manage to live independently by themselves, often because they have harsh medical problems.. But what happens if you are a member of the LGBT group? The same thing applies, actually, and you can stay in most retirement homes along with the straight male and female elderly but wouldn’t …
