In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Run the sting under cold water, or place ice or an ice pack on the area. Wrap the ice in a towel first instead of putting it directly on your skin. Keep this on for 20 minutes.  Reapply the ice later if the area gets sore again. While using home remedies, continue to assess the size of the sting. Often, stings will grow into larger areas. You can gauge the size of the sting by marking it with a pen. If the redness continues to spread, seek medical help. If you were stung on the arm or leg, elevate it. Prop your foot up on pillows to be above the level of your heart. Rest your arm on something above your heart. This can improve pain and swelling. Mix baking soda with water, apply the paste, and let it dry. This may pull out the venom if applied quickly and help relieve pain and swelling. Put a tablespoon of baking soda in a bowl and add enough water to turn it into a thick paste. You can also try making a paste out of baking soda, vinegar, and meat tenderizer and applying it to the sting. Add enough vinegar to a tablespoon of baking soda to make a paste, and add in a pinch of meat tenderizer. Dab some honey onto the sting with your fingers or a cotton ball. Honey has traditionally been used for its antiseptic qualities. Use honey that is as pure as possible, preferably 100% honey without preservatives, for the best effect. Apply a dab of toothpaste to the sore area. It may feel like tingling, which can improve the itchiness of the sting. Apply it as often as you want to. Natural toothpaste may work better than regular toothpaste, but give either a try. Wet a cotton ball with apple cider vinegar and hold it against the sting. It may burn momentarily, but then may provide some pain relief.
Summary: Apply cold to the area. Elevate your arm or leg. Make a baking soda paste. Apply honey to the sting. Put toothpaste on the sting. Dab on apple cider vinegar.

Talk with people about things you or they know about. Talking about politics, religion, and other challenging topics (having real discussions, not just arguments), can be a great basic brain workout.  You might even consider joining a group like Toastmasters since they cover a wide range of interests. Join a group or club for people with the same interests as you. This can be a hobby club, a political group, a discussion group, or anything like that. Talking with people with similar interests will get you using your brain and your skills. Phones can be a distraction when you are having a conversation with someone, so get into the habit of putting it away when you are socializing. Try putting your phone in another room, or shutting it off when you are socializing with friends. This will force you to focus on the conversation and work on improving your face-to-face communication skills. Doing volunteer work will not only improve your social connections, it will also provide you with opportunities to build new neurological pathways. Try volunteering at your local food bank, animal shelter, hospital, or nursing home.

Q: Your children are going to notice the differences between bodies. This can include different sexual organs, different amounts of body hair, and body fat. Answer any questions that they have about each family member’s body. Keep your attitude positive and try to help them learn more about the human body.  For instance, they might say something like, “Why don’t you have a penis?” You might respond, “Some people are born with a penis, while other people are born with a vagina.” They might also say something like, “Why is your tummy squishy?” You might say, “Some people have a squishy tummy, and some people have a hard tummy. Both can be beautiful.” While nudity may be the right choice for your family, some people are going to be confused about it. This means your children will start to get questions about it as they get older. Talk to your kids about how they should respond to these questions. This will help them explain your values in a way that other people understand. For instance, a friend my ask, “Isn’t it wrong to be naked around your parents?” Your child might respond, “In our family, we see nudity as being natural, so it’s not weird for us. We don’t even notice that we’re naked.” It’s totally normal for young children to explore their bodies, so don’t worry if your child starts to touch themselves. However, it’s important that you discuss what’s okay and what’s not. Calmly and respectfully tell your child that it’s not okay to touch themselves sexually in front of others. Additionally, explain that they shouldn’t touch other people in a sexual manner.  You might say, “I saw you tugging on your penis earlier. It’s okay to want to touch yourself, but you can only do that when you’re by yourself.” Don’t get upset or judgmental because it may make your child think that sexuality is wrong. Nudity teaches kids to be comfortable about their bodies, which is great! However, they also need to learn that it’s not okay for other adults or children to touch their private parts. Teach your children the names of their body parts. Then, explain that it’s not okay for people to touch them and that they need to tell you immediately if it happens. You might say, “Your body belongs to you, so it’s not okay for someone to touch you there. If someone ever touches you there, talk to me immediately so I can make sure you’re safe.” While it’s okay to practice nudity as a family, that doesn’t mean your child should see other people naked. Don’t under any circumstances show your child pornographic images. This can confuse them about what is natural and what isn’t, which might make them explore inappropriate sexual behaviors before they’re ready. Keep these images in a safe, hidden location if you have them. For instance, seeing posed pornographic photos may make it hard for your child to separate family nudity from sexual nudity.
A: Talk about physical differences in a positive, educational way. Help your children learn to respond to questions about nudity. Have a calm discussion with your child if they display sexual behavior. Teach your child about appropriate and inappropriate touching. Don’t ever show your child pornographic material.
