Q: Vomiting may come on suddenly, but many people experience symptoms of illness that precede the act of vomiting. Rush to a bathroom, garbage can, or a safe outdoor area if you experience any of the following:  dry heaves  the sensation that you're about to vomit abdominal pain  contraction of the stomach muscles  dizziness  other stomach ailments, such as diarrhea If you're very sick, overly intoxicated, or experiencing food poisoning, you're going to need to vomit no matter what you do. But if you're only experiencing mild nausea, there are some steps you can take to reduce or prevent the need to vomit. Try the following options to manage your nausea:  step outside and get some fresh air take deep, slow breaths through your mouth  suck on a mint candy or chew gum smell the inside of your wrist or armpit (the smell of perfume or deodorant may distract your body from the sensation of nausea) sniff something scented, like essential oil pinch your arm or tug on your hair (physical sensations can sometimes distract the body) If at all possible, try to anticipate when and where you will vomit if the need arises. The most ideal place is in a rest room (in the toilet, if possible), but obviously that may not always be feasible to get to a rest room. If you cannot get to a restroom, try to at least find a plastic bag or trash can to vomit into, as this will greatly reduce how much of a mess you make. If you're going to induce vomiting, wait until you can get to a toilet, trash can, or plastic bag. If you believe that you may vomit uncontrollably in the near future, stay close to a bathroom or keep a trash can/plastic bag on hand.
A: Identify the signs of vomiting. Reduce nausea. Try to plan your location.

Article: We all need reminders of the positive parts of who we are, and it is easy to forget or not give yourself the credit you deserve. Are you a positive person?  Are you a caring person?  Do you cherish your family, whether it be your family by blood or choosing? You can write everything down in a journal. Feeling good about your life starts with feeling good about yourself, yet it can be easy to focus on the negative aspects of ourselves instead of the positive. Take a twenty-four-hour period to conduct an experiment about how you treat yourself. Make a list throughout the day of all of the times you talk down to yourself. At the end of the day, take a look at all of the negative self-talk you participated in. Make another list that reframes all of those negative statements in a positive, honest way. For example, say in the morning you forgot your keys and your automatic thought was to call yourself stupid. In your reframe list, you can change that thought to: “I’m not stupid. I’m a person who makes mistakes.” Make sure you are always taking time to nurture yourself. Life is challenging, and nurturing yourself will motivate you to be kinder to others. The way we treat ourselves is often a reflection of how we treat others. Start with yourself, practice kindness for yourself every day, and then it will seem more natural to extend that kindness to others. Make an effort to go out to your favorite restaurant or enjoy your favorite dessert. It can also be something as simple as getting a haircut or a massage. Treating yourself with respect and care makes it easier to spread that kindness to others. Make some easy goals to care for your body. This is not about changing your entire lifestyle, but more so taking small steps that prove to your body and yourself that you care about you.  If you don’t get much exercise, make a goal to walk for at least ten minutes a day. Take a look at your diet and health and think of easy changes you can make to nurture yourself. For example, say you eat fast food more than three times a week. You could make it a goal to only eat fast food once a week. Imagine it almost like a kindness scavenger hunt. As you check off your goals on your kindness scavenger hunt, also be aware of how you feel at the end of the day. Did it feel good to be kind to someone else? Did it make you feel good about yourself?  For example, you could make a goal of smiling at a stranger at least twice in a day. Another goal could be finding someone who needs help with a project such as moving or painting their home and offering to help or comforting someone in your life who is having a rough time. A wonderful way to feel good about yourself and your life is giving back and getting involved in your community.  There are many people in this world who need help.  There is nothing more gratifying than knowing that you have helped someone in need. Try spending some time volunteering in your community. You can contact shelters, animal rescues, youth organizations, or co-ops just to name a few.

Problem: Article: If you are working from a specific combination or choreography, are you doing a right split jump or a left split jump? If not, try a right split jump just to start with. For our right split jump, this means your right leg is supporting you, foot flat on the floor and toe pointed outward. Your left leg is extended in front, straight, with your pointed toe touching the floor. Shift your weight onto your left leg keeping your knee bent outward, essentially forming a plie, while you shift your right foot along the floor to the front. Point your right toe as you bring your fully extended leg upward. Use your left leg to push as forcefully as possible off the floor. Push through your leg, the ball of your foot, and then even your toe to gain as much power as possible. While you are in the air, fully stretch your legs out in front and back, attempting to achieve your hard-earned split in mid-air. Bring your front (in this case, right) foot downward and land with your knee bent to absorb the shock. Keep your back leg and arms extended outward as they were in the jump. Bring your arms down as you pull your back leg down and through to point out in front as it did in the beginning.
Summary: Decide which split you are doing. Prepare your legs. Step forward. Raise your right leg. Jump. Extend your legs. Land. Finish.

Q: When you’re curling with braids or buns, it’s best to start with wet hair. Wash your hair as you normally would, and then towel dry it slightly so it’s not dripping. If you don’t want to wash your hair, use a spray bottle with water to get your locks fairly damp before you start the curling process. If your hair doesn’t hold curls well, you may want to spray a texturizing spray on your wet hair before moving on. That added texture in your hair can help it curl more easily. In order for the curls to take hold, your hair must dry completely. That’s why you may prefer to braid your hair or put it in buns at night, so you can leave them in place overnight to ensure that they’re totally dry.  You don’t necessarily have to start the process at night. Because braids and buns are hairstyles that you would wear out of the house, you can also go out while you’re waiting for your hair dry and curl. If you need your curls in a hurry, you can help the drying process along by using a blowdryer on your hair.
A:
Wet your hair. Allow your hair to dry completely.
