Q: The potting soil you use will depend on the plant. A good soil will hold moisture and nutrients at the roots, while still allowing them to breathe. You can find various potting soils at any store that sells gardening supplies. Look for ones that specifically contain peat moss, pine bark, and perlite or vermiculite. Fill the pot about half way before placing the plant.  It is important to buy soils that are specifically for potting. Things like garden soil and mulch were not created for planting in containers. Leave two or three inches between the top of the soil and the lip of the pot. The largest plant should go in the center of the pot, and smaller plants can go closer to the perimeter. After you’ve transferred your plant into the potting soil, add more soil so that the roots are fully covered. The soil shouldn’t be packed extremely tightly— “fluffy” soil is the best soil for growing in pots. However, be cautious of overwatering. Touch the surface of the soil, and add water whenever it feels dry. Slowly add water until there is water running from the drainage hole. Ideally, there is a drainage hole in your decorative pot or planter. If not, you will need to lift the liner and plant, drain the pot, and put the liner and plant back down into the pot. The entire root zone should be damp, but not constantly soaked. Ventilation and drainage are crucial.
A: Fill your liner with potting soil. Place your plant in the soil. Place your pot in sunlight and water it regularly.

Q: Everyone's spiritual journey, whether in response to difficult challenges or uplifting opportunities, is unique. Despite this, many spiritual journeys will use similar tools or go down similar paths. Remember that, though advice from others can be helpful, nobody can tell you how your journey should be going, or what direction it should be going in.  You are ultimately responsible for the direction of your journey. If one of the steps in this guide produce stress or harm for you, skip it for the time being and find an alternative that helps you contemplate your life. No religion has a monopoly on truth. If a religion or its followers begin to control or scare you, consider backing up and consulting a different source. Though this may seem like pre-planning, your journey begins now. Take inventory of your thoughts, feelings, fears, and expectations. Record your thoughts about daily life and your long-term thoughts. Every week, read over your entries and contemplate your accomplishments and challenges for the week. Use this as a grounding exercise to understand your worries, hopes, and ambitions in context. Such practice is often referred to as keeping a "mindfulness journal." Its purpose is to reveal to you the thought patterns that govern your life, possibly negatively, so that you may focus on transforming them. The mindfulness journal can help in organizing your thoughts in regards to goal-setting. Spiritual journeys can help those who want to be calmer and less angry, who are anxious about death, who want to enlarge their sense of wonder about the world, or who are struggling to leave behind an old belief system. As this is your journey, it will help you heal or change whatever it is you decide to focus on.  Prioritize what interests you intellectually as well as emotionally; think about what you are curious about, as well as what you might change to live a healthier life. Spiritual journeys can incorporate both intellectual and emotional aspects of your life. Remember that spiritual goals may take a lifetime to accomplish, and often change along the way. Avoid setting deadlines for your goals, or allowing them to stress you out. Do you have a single challenge you need assistance with? Or are you looking for long-lasting personal transformation? Are you simply looking for a meditative practice to add to your routine, or are you having a heavy crisis of faith? Understand beforehand how sweeping your journey may be; like therapy, a spiritual journey may require all your focus in changing your relationship to the world, or it may only need a small amount of your time and attention. Many spiritual journeys are lifelong affairs that constantly build upon themselves. Spirituality is a crucial part of life, and is hardly ever separate from it. Allow your scope to change as is necessary.
A: Understand that your journey is yours alone. Keep a journal of your thoughts and feelings. Make a set of goals and prioritize them. Decide on the scope of your journey.

Q: Before you apply your skin polish, a nice bath is necessary. This helps relax you and open up your pores, allowing your skin to be adequately cleansed and polished. There is no precise time frame for you to be in the bathtub, but 20 minutes should be adequate. Dab the polish onto your face, focusing on the cheeks, chin, elbows, and nose. Use your fingers to rub the polish into your face in circular motions until the polish is distributed evenly throughout your face. Rinse your face off with warm water before proceeding. Before applying your polish to rough areas, you should remove callouses and dead skin. This can be done with the assistance of a pumice stone, which you can purchase at most department stores. Gently rub the stone against rough areas, like the heels and elbows. Apply enough pressure to wear down callouses and rough skin, but not so much pressure that you feel in pain. You want to make sure all your skin is targeted during the skin polishing process. Work the polish in throughout your body. It can help to move from head to toes or vice vera. When applying your circular motions, use some force so you can lift dead skin. However, do not push to the point you feel pain. If you have any areas on your body that are extra sensitive, avoid applying skin polish here. After polishing your full body once, revisit the areas you treated earlier with the pumice stone. Apply a bit more polish here, just to exfoliate and moisturize the skin a bit more. Rough areas tend to need a little more care during the skin polishing process. You can rinse in the bath or shower, using warm water. Make sure you get any traces of polish off your skin. When you're done, gently pat your body dry with a towel. Skin polish can help remove dead skin cells, but it can also leave your skin feeling a little dry. Apply your regular moisturizer all over your body after skin polishing. If you have body-specific moisturizers, such as moisturizers for your feet and face, use these after polishing. As skin polishing is an intense form of exfoliation, it should not be done every day. Exfoliation is generally recommended to be done only once a week. If your skin reacts negatively to polishing, cut back that amount further.
A: Open your pores with a hot bath. Apply the polish to your face. Exfoliate rough areas with a pumice stone. Apply polish all over the body in gentle, circular motions. Treat rough areas. Rinse off the polish. Moisturize your body. Polish your skin only once a week.

Q: . Ultimately, it's best to avoid spending too much time worrying about death and dying. Instead, fill each day with as much joy as possible. Don't let little things get you down. Go outside, play with friends, or take up a new sport. Just do anything that will take your mind off dying. Instead, focus your mind on living. Many people with the fear of death think about it daily. It means that you have a lot of things you want to do in life. Let the fear work through and ask yourself, “What is the worst thing that will happen today?” Today you are alive, so go and live. Surround yourself with people that make you happy and vice versa. Your time will be well-spent – and well-remembered – when you share yourself with others. For example, you can rest assured that your memory will live on after you die if you help your grandchildren develop happy memories of you. A gratitude journal is a way for you to write down and acknowledge the things you're thankful for. This will help keep your focus on the good things in your life.  Think of good things about your life and cherish them. Take some time every few days to write down a moment or thing that you're grateful for. Write in depth, savoring the moment and appreciating the joy you've received from it. Avoid getting involved in bad situations or doing things that can raise your chances of dying. Avoid unhealthy activities like smoking, drug or alcohol abuse, and texting while driving. Staying healthy removes some of the risk factors that can lead to death.
A:
Live life to the fullest Spend time with your loved ones. Keep a gratitude journal. Take care of yourself.
