article: If your sore shoulder doesn't respond to the above-mentioned home remedies, then schedule an appointment with your doctor for a physical exam. Your doctor can take x-rays and other tests to determine the cause of your shoulder soreness. Depending on the findings and diagnosis, your doctor may recommend stronger prescription drugs, corticosteroid injections, physical therapy and/or shoulder surgery.  Rotator cuff injuries are a common cause of chronic shoulder pain — more than 4 million doctor visits per year in the United States are due to rotator cuff problems. The rotator cuff is the group of muscles and tendons that hold the bones of the shoulder joint together. X-rays can detect fractures, dislocations, arthritis, bone tumors and infections, although an MRI or CT scan is needed to see serious issues in muscles, tendons and ligaments. A corticosteroid injection (such as prednisolone) into a sore and inflamed shoulder (bursitis, tendinitis) can quickly reduce inflammation and pain, and allow for greater range of motion and flexibility.  Shoulder surgery is reserved for mending broken bones, cleaning up damaged joints, reconnecting severed tendons and ligaments, removing blood clots, and draining accumulated fluid. If your sore shoulder is caused by a rotator cuff injury or another issue related to overexertion or overuse, then get a referral from your doctor for physiotherapy so your shoulder can get rehabilitated. A physical or athletic therapist will show you specific and tailored strengthening exercises and stretches for your sore shoulder, which will make it stronger and more flexible.  A physical or athletic therapist may use weight machines, free weights, rubber bands, exercise balls, therapeutic ultrasound and/or electronic muscle stimulation to rehabilitate your shoulder. Physiotherapy is usually needed two to three times per week for four to six weeks to positively impact chronic shoulder problems. Good strengthening activities for your shoulder include push-ups, rowing exercises, swimming and bowling. Your sore shoulder may be related to your neck or mid back, so an appointment with a chiropractor may be appropriate. Chiropractors are joint specialists who focus on establishing normal motion and function within spinal and peripheral joints, such as those of the shoulder. Shoulder soreness can be caused by problems with the underlying joints (glenohumeral and/or acromioclavicular joints), or it can be referred from issues in the thoracic spine (mid back) or cervical spine (neck). Your chiropractor can determine where the pain is coming from and, if need be, manually adjust or slightly reposition the problematic joint.  Manual joint adjustments often create a "popping" or "cracking" sound, which is safe and rarely painful. Although a single joint adjustment can sometimes cure a shoulder problem, more than likely it will take a few treatments to make a significant impact. Chiropractors can use manual joint maneuvers to reset a dislocated shoulder, although they don't treat broken bones, joint infections or bone cancer. If your sore shoulder is lingering for much more than a week and you think it's due to tight or strained muscles, then consider a deep tissue massage from a qualified massage therapist. Deep tissue massage is great for relieving muscle soreness, tightness and tension, which can limit your range of movement and reduce flexibility in your shoulder. Massage also promotes better blood circulation and encourages relaxation.  Massage therapy is helpful for mild-to-moderate strains and sprains, but it's not recommended for more serious joint or nerves injuries. Start with a 1/2 hour massage session focusing on your sore shoulder, but also ask the therapist to include your lower neck and mid-back. You may find a 1 hour session more effective or prefer to have multiple sessions over the course of a week or two. Allow the therapist to go as deep as possible without you wincing — there are many muscle layers in your shoulder that should be addressed for best results.

article: You may no longer be interested in the previous version of a popular game, those building block sets meant for “little” kids, or last year’s must-have Christmas toy that’s still in the box.  But odds are someone else is.  With an adult’s assistance, set up an account on one of the many auction or direct-seller sites.  You probably won’t break the bank, but you may be surprised by how much people are willing to pay for good-condition items. If you have older relatives or people without the time or computer skills to sell their stuff online, you can also offer to do it for them — for  a reasonable cut of the profits. Make sure you can always deliver on what you sell.  Don’t exaggerate the quality or condition of your items, and ship them out properly and on time.  Otherwise your career in sales likely won’t last long. People love to be able to scour product reviews before buying online, and companies love receiving favorable reviews.  Done smartly, you can earn some extra cash legitimately by writing reviews.  There are plenty of product review schemes and scams to watch out for, however.  A large number of websites offer to pay for product reviews, and many seem to come and go out of business quickly.  You can opt to work through affiliate programs run by large companies like Amazon (https://affiliate-program.amazon.com/), which may offer you some more confidence in its legitimacy and stability. A better avenue may be to review products for independent, ad-supported sites that compensate you for your work.  For instance, there are sites that review children’s books that pay a small amount for accepted reviews. This is another area where there is legitimate money available, but also a lot of scams and fraudulent sites.  Consult with a knowledgeable adult before getting involved in any pay-for-survey schemes.  Like most things in life, if it seems too easy to make money doing something, the odds are good that there is something wrong with the scheme. Research legitimate survey sites that will pay you a small amount (as in pennies) for completed surveys.  You’re not going to pay for your first car this way, but you may have a bit extra pocket change. If not already made clear here, the internet is full of money-making schemes that are actually money-taking scams.  You may be wise enough to know that those spam emails offering ways to make $10,000 per month from your home computer are fraudulent, but other scams can seem more legitimate.  It is always smart to have someone you trust (and who is experienced with computers and the internet) to advise you. You’ll hear people talk about making money by selling your progress in an online game (letting others skip ahead by paying you to do the work, essentially), or by selling virtual items or characters for real money.  Such plans usually violate the terms and conditions of the games, however, and can cost you your access.  They can also cost you time and money, as there is no way to ensure that you will be paid.

This map is divided into 9 squares, each one representing an important aspect of balanced life. You can use this map in each room of your home to help you know what to place where. Specific spots in the room and specific objects have best possible energies, and the map helps you determine those spots. There is simple version of the map with just the names of the sections, and a more complicated version which gives examples of what all is represented by that section. Align the bottom portion of the map with the door/entryway to the room. Arrange the things that apply to each section on the map in the proper place in your room. In the lower left, place books which represent wisdom. In the middle right, which is “child” and represents creativity, place a musical instrument you play or a place where you can paint. It will take time and careful consideration, but if you want to apply feng shui properly, you need to give the process the proper time. Understanding the map and learning what each section represents is the only way you can apply it properly. Some versions of the Bagua map will have slightly different titles than these listed, but the basic idea of each section is intact.  Lower left: Knowledge and growth, which can apply to learning and studying, investing in spiritual wisdom and faith, and personal growth. Lower-middle: Career and work success, which focuses on success in current jobs, getting promotions, moving to new careers, and achieving goals. Lower-right: Travel and helpful people, which applies to safety in travels, relocating to new places, seeking people who will help and mentor you in life. Middle-left: Family relationships and health, which means investing in the strength of your family, expanding your social life, and being committed to personal health. Center: Self or well being, which seeks to achieve harmony with yourself and environment, promote health and overcome illness, increase endurance and vitality. Middle-right: Child or creativity, which represents unlocking creativity, bettering communication and building the future. Upper-left: Wealth and power, which seeks prosperity, generating cash flow, and promoting abundance. Upper-center: Reputation and fame, which seeks public attention, becoming well known, and creating a strong reputation. Upper-right: Love and marriage, which includes improving relationships, attracting love, and increasing self-esteem. This map is a guide for what parts of the room are best for certain objects. It’s very important that you do your best to include something for every section because feng shui is all about creating balance. So if you load one section of the room, maybe the wealth section with ledgers and your piggy bank, but you neglect another section, you will upset the balance of the room.  Maybe you don’t have a specific object, or enough space, to place something in every section. Something you can do instead is write down on a piece of paper something you care about which represents that or something you desire that represents that section. This can be a stand-in for the actual object. It’s also important to note that sometimes due to room or house layouts, parts of the map may be missing or partial. You can symbolically apply the feng shui to the wall where the missing section would be. Just make your intent for the missing section clear when you place something there. If you have broken objects around the house, especially things that you use frequently, they are likely to cause you frustration, which leads to negative energy in your home. To counteract this, it’s highly advised that you fix things as soon as they break to promote calm and good energy. The five elements of life are fire, water, earth, wood, and metal. Good feng shui in any room or home means having a mix of these elements. Most rooms will have a few of these already, depending on the structure of the room and furniture present. Look  around your room and see what elements are already present and consider ways to add the remaining. Candles are the easiest way to add fire to any room.  Faucets already bring running water, but in rooms without faucets, consider buying a small fountain which can constantly be running water. Plants are a great way to add earth to a room. If you can’t easily incorporate something physically made of the element, hanging a picture that represents the element is a good alternative. The door to the home is where the energy flows in, so make sure you use the front door as much as you can. If you typically enter through a door besides the main one, consider purposefully using the front door a few times a week to keep good energy flowing in. It’s hard to maintain good energy throughout the house if the door is always closed. If you are having trouble understanding the principles of feng shui, or your particular home is not cooperating with your endeavors, consider hiring a professional who can give you advice on how to apply feng shui to your specific living space.
