Before you implement a new exercise program, talk with your doctor and see if they have any suggestions to address your pelvic tilt. It's also important to see your doctor if you are suffering any pain in your pelvis or back, as this could indicate a more serious problem. General practitioners usually refer children on to an orthopedic specialist who can help to ensure that the child's spine develops properly. This is one way for your doctor to identify if you are suffering from pelvic tilt. It can also be used to gauge your progress as you work to fix your tilt. Lie down on a table with your knees and lower legs hanging off the side. Flex one leg and pull it toward your upper body. Repeat with the other side. With a properly aligned pelvis, your resting leg will stay in place on the table when you lift the other one.  Any raising movement from the resting leg is a possible indication of pelvic tilt. As you improve, do this test at home and watch to see if your resting leg stays closer to the table over time. Ask your primary physician for therapist suggestions. You can also go to the website of the American Physical Therapy Association at www.apta.org and search for therapists in your area. Look for one that has experience working with patients suffering from pelvic tilt or other back/pelvic problems. Ask your doctor to recommend a trustworthy chiropractor who has experience assessing and treating pelvic tilt. A chiropractor can evaluate your pelvic tilt and work with you to come up with a treatment plan. Check to make sure your chiropractor is licensed by your local chiropractic licensing and regulation board.

Summary: Consult with your doctor before starting treatment. Perform the Thomas test for a partial diagnosis. Find a physical therapist. Work with a chiropractor.


Let's face it — sometimes, cheeks just refuse to be cooperative. If you can't get pinker cheeks with the tricks above, try using a little blush to give your cheeks a boost! Start light by adding just a little blush. Remember, you can easily add more, but it can be a pain to remove your blush and start over if you add too much.  There's no single "right" type of makeup to use — what looks good on one person may not look good on another. However, if you're a makeup beginner, it's generally a good idea to start with a mild pink blush, which can contain hints of gold or peach if you like. These shades are a good general choice because they complement nearly all skin tones. See our blush article for tips on applying your makeup.

Summary: Apply light blush for a subtle glow.


Use a medium-sized plastic bowl for mixing together the garlic powder, paprika, nutmeg, cardamon, and cinnamon. Stir the spices for at least 30 seconds so you have fully mixed them together. Just place the chicken strips into the spice mixture and toss them until they have been covered with the spice mixture on both sides. Then, drizzle them with a bit of olive oil and toss them again to make sure that they are fully coated in the olive oil and spice mixture. Heat your grill and grease a large piece of aluminum foil. Set it on the grill with the greased side up once the grill is heated. Turn the chicken over a few times, until cooked through. This should take about 8 minutes on each side, depending on the size of the chicken strips. If your grill is smaller, you may have to grill the chicken in 2 batches. You'll need to do this before you can begin to assemble your shawarma. You can add lettuce, onion, tahini sauce, pickled cabbage, hummus, or whatever other ingredients you’d like to place in the flatbread. Place the chicken in the bread first, followed by the other toppings, pouring on the tahini sauce last. Wrap the flatbread similarly to a burrito, leaving an inch of space between the ingredients and the top of the bread so they don’t pour out. Once you do that, your chicken shawarma will be ready to eat!

Summary: Mix the spices together in a bowl. Add the chicken strips to the mixture and toss them before drizzling them with the olive oil. Prepare your grill. Place the spiced chicken onto the foil. Remove the chicken from the grill and place on a serving platter. Wrap your chicken in the flatbread with the other ingredients.


Slowly lower your gaze until both of your eyes are focused on the tip of your nose. This may cause a bit of an eye strain, since you're probably not used to using your eye muscles this way. Though you won't be able to see it yourself, your eyes should now be crossed. But this is no fun so far -- since you're looking down, no one else can see that your eyes are crossed. If you really want to master eye crossing, then you should have a friend there to watch you do it, so you can make sure you're really doing it successfully. If you look up at your friend and the friend says, "Ew!" or makes a gross face, then chances are that yeah, you've successfully crossed your eyes. People say you can try taking a picture of yourself in the cross-eyed position to see if you've done it successfully, but that just takes way too much coordination.
Summary: Focus both your eyes on the tip of your nose. Get help from a friend.
