In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Showering helps, too. A little bit of cool H2O on the face is an energizing treat people have been using for a quite a while. This is water therapy at its finest and most efficient. If you stay in your pajamas, sweats, or birthday suit all day long, you may trick your brain into thinking it has an excuse to be lazy. If you get dressed in "normal" attire, however, you're telling yourself that there are things to do, people to see, and happiness to be found. We all know how comforting those sweats can be. But when it's time to get out of bed and be active, they're not as energy-producing as you might have hoped. People who have problems that are vexing them keep them inside for all sorts of reasons: they don't want to bother other people, they're afraid of how other people may judge them, or they simply feel they don't have the time to vent. Not being able to find a good emotional release for problems can be taxing to your energy.  Have a talk with one of your close friends. Confide in someone you can trust. Lay your feelings bare. Trust that the person you're confiding in has your best interest at heart and wants to help, if not hear you out. Getting rid of your anxiety in this way may help to lower stress and keep you energized longer. Write down your feelings in a journal every day. If you don't have someone you feel you can confide it, a journal is a perfect substitute. Write down your feelings, your hopes, your aspirations. Simply putting them on paper can feel oddly relaxing and transforming. Whether it's Beethoven or Black Sabbath, music can give you an emotional boost. One recent study found that people who listened to music while running ran faster than those who didn't. Try burning a CD of your favorite tracks and listening to it when you need a pick-me-up. Exercise is about as close to a panacea as humans have gotten. Exercise improves health, mood, and your ability to sleep as well as feel energized. If you don't exercise regularly, try fitting a little bit of exercise into your daily routine. Walking for 30 minutes a day can be a huge boon to your health and energy levels. Make time for office exercise. Whether it's sitting on an exercise ball instead of an office chair, doing stretches in front of your computer, or carving out time to walk during your lunch break, being at the office is no longer an excuse not to exercise. Being generous and altruistic can boost mood, life satisfaction, and energy levels. Find a way to give back to less fortunate people in your community for an instant mood and energy boost.
Summary: Splash some cold water on your face. Dress for success. Ease negative feelings by expressing them. Listen to music. Don't forget to exercise. Think of ways, big and small, to give back.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: The cold will reduce the swelling and numb the area a little bit.   If you don't have an ice pack ready and waiting for use in the freezer, you can quickly make one by wrapping ice cubes or a package of frozen peas in a towel. Be careful not to hold the ice on your skin for too long. Limit it to 15 to 20 minutes at a time. If cold does not work to reduce the itching, try using heat. Heat can break down some of the chemicals in the bite that cause the itch, giving you relief.  Heat a spoon in boiling water. Hold it with a potholder so that you don't burn your hand. Gently press the back of the spoon onto the bite. Hold it there for 15 seconds and then remove it. Use a blow dryer to heat the bite and the area around the bite. These methods have not been scientifically tested, but people have found them to be useful.  Tea tree oil has antibacterial properties and will help prevent infection, as well as relieve itching, swelling and pain. Put a small drop on your finger or a clean cotton ball and then rub it directly onto the bite. Try other essential oils like lavender or coconut to reduce the itching and swelling. These also have the benefit that they will smell good. The acid will help kill bacteria, prevent infection, promote healing and reduce the itching.  Lemon juice, lime juice and apple cider vinegar are common cooking ingredients that have high acidity. Soak the edge of a kitchen towel or napkin in the juice/vinegar and then dab it onto the bite until it is thoroughly coated. Let the juice/vinegar dry and reapply it whenever the itching starts again. Honey will help reduce inflammation and the stickiness will make it less rewarding to scratch.  Clean the bite thoroughly with soap and water. Smear a quarter teaspoon of honey onto the bite and then let it sit. The honey will be sticky, so be sure to keep the area clean so that dirt doesn't get stuck in the honey and transferred to the bite. This will draw out fluids and toxins, helping it to heal faster.  Make a baking soda paste by mixing baking soda and water in a 2:1 ratio, then dab the mixture onto and around the bite. Let it dry completely before wiping it off. This will help dry out the bite and remove toxins. Dab a pea-sized drop of toothpaste onto the bite and let it dry on the bite. Toothpaste is an astringent and it will help draw out the fluids under your skin. Meat tenderizer contains enzymes that break down proteins. This will help reduce the itching by breaking down chemicals in the bug's saliva which are in your skin.   Dissolve the meat tenderizer in a small amount of water. Dab the mixture directly onto the point where the bite occurred. You should get relief right away. Let it dry and then wash the meat tenderizer off with water. The aloe will have a cooling, soothing effect and is excellent for helping your skin heal.  If you have a commercially manufactured aloe vera gel, apply that generously over the bite and surrounding area. If you have an aloe plant in your house, break off a leaf and split it open. Apply the gooey gel directly onto the bite. If the bite occurred on your arm or leg, raise the limb above your heart.  To be comfortable, try lying in bed and propping your arm or leg up on a pile of pillows. Stay in this position for at least 30 minutes to give the swelling time to go down.
Summary:
Cool the bite with a cold compress. Apply heat to the bite. Put essential oils on the bite. Use citrus juice or vinegar to stop the itching. Try raw honey. Dry out the bite with a baking soda paste or toothpaste. Apply meat tenderizer to the bite. Rub aloe vera on the affected area. Raise the bitten area above your heart if possible.
