INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Place the end of the floss on top of your thigh, then wrap the floss once around. You shouldn’t be wrapping it as tightly as possible – use about half of the stretch/tension available in the band. Start overlapping the band as you continue to wrap it around your thigh. You should use an overlap of about 1 in (2.5 cm). If you start to feel any tingling or pain, you’re wrapping too tight. Once you get to the end of floss, you’ll need to secure it so the band doesn’t come loose. Take about 2 in (5.1 cm) of the end of the band and pull it up and then tuck it under the previous strip. Use the leg that’s not wrapped for balance, standing with your knee slightly bent. Then start gently swinging the leg that’s wrapped from the hip. You should feel your hip extending, particularly when you swing forward. Repeat this motion for 15 to 20 reps. Stand so the foot of your anchor leg is slightly behind your hips. Then swing your flossed leg side to side in front of your anchor leg. Your leg should make a 30 to 45-degree angle as it swings out. Repeat this for 30 seconds. Stand with your legs just more than shoulder-width apart. Your feet should be pointing slightly away from center. Then squat so that your knees extend just over your feet and your butt almost touches the floor. Perform 5 to 10 squats, squatting as deeply as you can. Stand with your legs more than shoulder-width apart. Then lunge to the side of the flossed leg. Your feet shouldn’t move – the lunge movement should come from your hips. Perform 5 to 10 reps. You shouldn't use the voodoo floss for longer than 2 minutes at a time. Once you've finished your set, remove the band immediately. If you're looking to increase mobility in both of your hips, wrap your other hip in the floss. Then perform each of the exercises on that hip.

SUMMARY: Start the voodoo floss just below your hip. Continue wrapping the band down your thigh. Tuck the end of the band under the previous strip. Swing your flossed leg backward and forward. Swing your flossed leg side to side. Perform 5 to 10 squats. Perform a lateral lunge. Remove the band. Repeat the exercises using the voodoo floss on your other hip.


INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Heated rice socks are ideal for soothing muscles that are sore or stiff from work, stress, or mild strain. Heat the rice sock to your desired temperature. Feel the bag to ensure there are no hot spots. Lay the sock directly on your sore muscle and leave it for 15 to 20 minutes. When you're tired, sick, or sore, joint aches and pains are common. Place a heated rice sock on the affected area, such as around your neck, for 20 to 25 minutes to treat aches and pains. For menstrual cramps, lay down on your back and lay a heated rice sock on your abdomen for 30 minutes. Headaches, migraines, sinus pressure, and other ailments affecting the head and face can sometimes be treated with heating pads. Lay on your back and place a warm rice sock on your forehead or face for relief. Alternatively, you can also lay with your head on the rice sock, as though it were a pillow. Arthritis pain is often helped with heat, and a rice sock is a great way to apply this heat. Warm the rice sock and apply it to aching joints for 20 minutes at a time.

SUMMARY: Treat muscle pain and stress. Provide relief from aches, pains, and cramps. Get relief from a headache. Soothe with arthritis pain.


INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Visit Greenpeace’s website and review their many different campaign focuses. While reading through each cause, consider what you are most passionate about, and what cause you would like to get involved with most. By understanding which causes Greenpeace is most passionate about, you will be able to focus your involvement and get involved sooner. You can find Greenpeace’s list of causes by clicking this link: http://www.greenpeace.org/international/en/campaigns/ One of Greenpeace’s largest campaigns is focused on accelerating the world into a future that is powered entirely by renewable energies. Greenpeace educates people on the dangers and impacts of coal, oil, and nuclear power, striving to support the world through solar and wind as soon as possible. If you are passionate about climate change, consider focusing on this campaign while you look toward getting involved with Greenpeace. Another cause that is very important to Greenpeace is protecting the world’s forests, a vast majority of which have already been destroyed and degraded. Greenpeace is passionate about getting people involved in this cause, aiming to make a decisive contribution to the Paris Climate agreement goal to keep global temperature change below a 1.5 °C (34.7 °F) change, complementing efforts to phase-out fossil fuel emissions by 2050. If you are passionate about the ocean, consider helping Greenpeace create ocean sanctuaries. Greenpeace strives to create sanctuaries in 40% of the world’s oceans. Currently, less than 1% of international waters are protected, so the project would benefit from more involvement. Greenpeace has identified eleven hazardous chemicals that they would like to remove from the earth’s air and water. Through what they call The Detox Campaign, Greenpeace challenges top brands to eliminate all eleven of these hazardous chemicals across their supply chain and life-cycle of their products.  By getting involved with this campaign, you would be helping Greenpeace fight these dangerous chemicals.
