INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Here's what you'll need to make roasted butternut squash:  1 large butternut squash 1/2 cup butter 1/2 cup brown sugar 2 tbsp. cinnamon Salt to taste Pepper to taste    You can use a large or small spoon to do this, or use a knife to cut out the center a bit first and then scoop it out with a spoon. Cut it into 1 inch (2.5 cm) cubes.  Try not to let them touch. You won't need to cover the cookie sheet to roast the squash properly. Place 1/2 cup of butter on a frying pan and heat it until it melts. You can also place the butter in a microwave-safe covered dish and heat it for 30 seconds to one minute. Drizzle 1/2 cup of butter and 1/2 cup of brown sugar over the squash and toss it to coat evenly. Then, season it with 2 tbsp. of cinnamon and with salt and pepper to taste. Place the cookie sheet with the squash in the oven. Loosen it and toss it with a spatula, and then return it to the oven for another 15-20 minutes, or until the squash is golden brown and a fork pierces it easily. Serve this squash immediately, while it's hot.

SUMMARY: Gather your ingredients. Preheat your oven to 350ºF (176ºC). Peel the squash using a vegetable peeler or paring knife. Slice the squash in half. Remove the seeds and pulp. Cube the squash. Grease a 9 x 13" cookie sheet with nonstick spray. Spread the cubes evenly on a cookie sheet. Melt 1/2 cup of butter. Drizzle the butter and brown sugar mixture over the squash.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Whenever you notice a headache coming on, make note of it in your diary. Include the date and time the headache started. By including this, you’ll be better able to spot patterns when you review the data you’ve gathered. Get into the habit of recording your headache right away, because if you wait you might forget important details. If you can’t find the book, write the info on a piece of paper that you can transcribe to your book as soon as you can. In addition to the date and time of your headache, write down any associated symptoms. By writing down symptoms, you’ll record information that could be useful to you or your doctor when it comes time to review your diary. Some symptoms you might experience (and record) include:  Neck stiffness. Irritability. Light sensitivity Nausea Strange phenomenon (e.g., spots in your vision) Your emotional state (e.g., happy, sad, stressed, excited, etc.) In addition to writing down the start time of your headache, you should also record when your headache ends.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: The hip bridge also works to strengthen the muscles in your lower back and core that support your spine, putting you at less risk for lower back pain. Lay on your back for this exercise with your knees bent and feet flat on the floor, as you did for pelvis tilts.  Lift your hips toward the ceiling, keeping your knees bent and engaging your core. Stop when your hips are even with your knees, such that you could draw a straight line (or a bridge) from your knees to your shoulders. Hold the position for 5 to 10 seconds, breathing deeply, then lower to the ground. Perform 10 repetitions of this exercise. For this exercise, also known as the Superman exercise, you want to lay face-down on the floor with your legs extended behind you and your arms extended straight overhead.  If you're already laying on your back, flip over onto your stomach. Reach your hands over your head and extend your legs behind you. Raise your legs a few inches and kick them, alternating sides. You also can lift your left leg and right arm together, then lower and lift your right leg and left arm. Complete 10 to 20 repetitions of this exercise. The pelvis tilt helps strengthen the muscles at the base of your abdomen as well as the muscles around your lower back. Become familiar with contracting this muscle to help strengthen it so you have fewer lower back problems.  Press the curve of your lower back into the floor and hold it for 5 to 10 seconds, breathing deeply, then release. Do 10 repetitions of this exercise. To do this exercise, lay on your back with your knees bent so that your feet are flat on the floor. Your legs should be about hip-width apart. The bird dog exercise can help stretch and strengthen your lower back, as well as improving your balance. Start the bird dog exercise by getting on all fours with your knees directly under your hips and your wrists directly under your shoulders.  Reach your left arm forward and your right leg backward, creating a straight line from your fingertips to your heel. Keep your back flat, hold for two or three seconds, then return to all fours and repeat with the other side. Do 10 to 20 repetitions of this exercise on each side. Keep your back flat and motionless, and don't lift your hand or heel higher than your back. Lunges, if done correctly, are a good exercise to strengthen your lower back. Start by standing with your legs about hip-width apart. Make sure there are several feet of space in front of you.  Step forward with your right leg, lowering and bending your left knee. There should be a straight line from the top of your head to your left knee – don't lean forward over your right leg. Bend your right knee to a right angle with your knee directly over your ankle and your thigh parallel to the floor. Hold the lunge for a couple seconds, then step back to your original position and repeat with the left leg forward. Do 5 to 10 repetitions on each side. Since the muscles in your lower back are part of your core abdominal muscles, you can't strengthen your lower back without strengthening your core.  Start on your stomach with your legs extended behind you. Raise up so that you are on your hands and toes, with your body creating a straight line from the crown of your head to your heels. If you don't have much experience with planks, you can modify the exercise by coming to your knees and elbows, or to your toes and elbows so that your upper body is supported by your forearms rather than just your wrists. Side planks work the core muscles along your sides. Come up on one forearm, stacking your ankles one over top of the other. Make sure your elbow is directly under your shoulder. Once you've done these back-strengthening exercises for a while, they'll become less challenging. A stability ball adds a balance element to push your muscles to work harder. For example, if you put your feet on a stability ball to do a bridge, you'll find the bridge is much more difficult to do as well as to maintain.

SUMMARY:
Make a hip bridge. Swim on the floor. Tilt your pelvis. Try the bird dog exercise. Add in some lunges. Engage your core with planks. Use a stability ball to increase difficulty.
