How to Get Rid of Acne - Hard vs. Soft Water
An Introduction
Millions of people in the United States presently suffer from acne. Acne in a skin condition prevalent among the younger populace that typically manifests itself in the form of inflamed bumps on the facial area. There are a number of over-the-counter products that have been designed to aid in the fight against acne. Despite this, many fail to garner relief and are subsequently forced to visit a dermatologist for prescription-grade medication. In most cases, neither prescription-grade medicine nor OTC products provide a long-term escape from the condition. As such, a more thoughtful approach to dealing with this skin nightmare should entail finding the root cause of the problem.
There is overwhelming amounts of concrete evidence that acne is linked to hormonal fluctuations among a plethora of other things. However, it seems as though the most rudimentary factors have been completely ignored in uncovering the cause of acne in cases where concrete facts shed little insight. Case-in-point: water quality. Water is a substance that makes contact with our skin on a regular basis. Could it not perhaps be possible that our home's water supply aggravates, or even causes or acne? This question will be thoroughly explored in this hub.
Hard Water
Hard water is a term used to describe water with a high mineral content. It is estimated that over eighty percent of American homes are outfitted to receive such water. The most prevalent minerals in this type of water are Calcium and Magnesium. Hard water presents a number of challenges in maintaining healthy skin. The significant mineral content, for one, degrades water's ability to act as an effective solvent in removing soap from the skin. Have you ever wondered why you have trouble lathering soap in the shower? On a basic level, the soap reacts with the minerals in the water to form soap scum, instead of suds. The soap, instead of helping remove dirt and grime from your skin, creates a nice layer atop it instead. This soap scum also accumulates on your bathroom doors and fixtures.
As most of us know, soap induces a drying effect. Naturally, the longer you allow it to linger on the skin, the more it will dry it out. Hard water allows for just this. The soap scum dries the skin out nicely, aggravating it. Irritated skin is a major risk factor for acne. The unrinsed soap scum can also make its way into your pores, eventually causing breakouts. This effect is aided by taking warm showers, which open your pores.
If hard water is so damaging, why is it that we continue to use it? Hard water is not as corrosive to plumbing as is soft water. However, in exchange, homeowners are left to deal with mineral deposits, which can be just as damaging. These deposits can accumulate in piping causing a wide array of issues.
There may be ultimately a financial motive in maintaining a hard water supply. Distilling water can be an expensive and laborious process. As long as people are unaware of the potentially harmful effects of hard water, there is little reason to tamper with it. However, there is strong indication that hard water is ill-fit for skin care.
Soft Water
Soft water is pure water with a negligible mineral content. The Calcium and Magnesium is replaced with Sodium. Soft water is a much more effective solvent than its hard counterpart. When combined with soap, this water does not form soap scum. Rather, it lathers soap in preparation for a thorough cleaning. Most of us have fallen so accustomed to using hard water that transitioning to soft water feels strange and foreign. Many report a "slippery" sensation after having bathed in such water. This is because soft water aids soap in cleaning your skin, and helps remove that existing layer of soap scum off your skin.
If you're not convinced, you can experiment by purchasing a container of very soft water (distilled water). You will notice an immense difference in the way distilled water interacts with soap to clean your hands as opposed to hard water. You skin will feel cleaner, softer, and healthier.
Soft Water Cleaning Power
Damaging Effects of Hard Water
Treating Your Water
There are several routes you can take in mitigating some (or all) of the negative effects associated with hard water usage. For one, you can get a water softener installed in your home. This can be an expensive investment, however, a very worthwhile one. You will exert less effort in ensuring that soaps and detergents do their job on your skin, dishes, and clothing. How do dishes without disfiguring etching sound? Dealing with mineral deposits and soap scum and bathroom fixtures and such will also be an issue of the past.
Cost Effective Solutions
Not all of us can afford to outfit our homes with water treatment devices. Fortunately, there are some more cost-effective steps you can take to combat the destructive effects of hard water. Have your bathroom fixtures cleaned or replaced regularly as to prevent even more mineral deposits from making their way into your water.
Limit the time that you allow water to stream down your face in the shower. Also, clean your face with only cool or warm water. Hot water will open your pores and give the minerals an opportunity to clog them. This doesn't mean you have to take a cold shower. Simply use warm water while bathing your body, and change to cooler water for cleaning your face.
If you don't mind a bit of inconvenience, you should purchase soft water (distilled water) from your local supermarket and use that to cleanse your face. This should remain sealed while not in use to prevent its acidity from rising.
Finally, if you have not already done so, incorporate a moisturizer in your skin care regimen. Hard water can be drying, yet a quality moisturizer can fix this. Remember that other chemicals such as chlorine are also present in the public water supply. These can contribute to the drying effect. So a moisturizer is definitely a must!
I also have had soft water for the past 5 years and at around age 30, my acne was as bad as when I was 13!! We just moved to a new place with hard water and my skin has drastically cleared up. Hard to not notice a difference.
I actually prefer hard water than soft water. I grew up with hard water and now that I live in a place where we use soft water, my skin gets dried out and bumpy. When I go out visit my hometown and take a shower, my skin feels so much cleaner amd smoother with the hard water.
Go to chemistry.com and check out the science behind soft and hard water. Hawkers of soft water systems outright lie to you. Soft water is a TERRIBLE soap solvent, that's why your skin feels slippery - the soap is NOT fully rinsing off.
Now, NATURAL soft water is a fantastic solvent, like distilled water, but the sodium content in water softener water makes it a terrible solvant.
Yes, hard water can cause acne in people who's dry skin causes an issue. But soft water WILL clog your pores with left over soap and cause acne too.
I have no vested interest here but it bugs me to no end to see lies posted. If you want clear skin you need naturalyl softened water, like rain water or distilled.
I am not sure that I can agree with any of the soft water claims. I have read that the soft waqter rinses off the soap but leaves natural body oils there. How can having all the extra body oil (or food oils on dishes) remain be advantageous. Makes me wonder if anything is clean. I know when my grandchildren visit they get an acne breakout, which they do not have at home. Most articles that "tout" soft water are related to companies that want you to buy softeners. Our local water company started using softeners. Those of us who have high blood pressure have had to increase our meds - doesn't sound healthy to me. Several of our friends have had plumbing issues related to scum build up in their pipes. Because the water company thought "no one would notice" and did not tell the public they were doing this, no one adjusted the soap amount being used in washers, dishwashers etc. This caused problems with their appliances. If the articles on heart, kidney and other health issues maybe people wouldn't be so tempted to use soft water. Because I am allergic to iodine (a component used to soften water) I have had to increase my grocery budget to included bottled water for cooking, drinking etc. Doesn't help me!! Just google soft water asnd diseases and see what opinion you form.
I've been living in a condo in pittsburg, calif. for about 5 years.
Agree with Donna. I live in toronto, the city water here are quite good but my daughter have very sensitive skin. We've tried many products (I.e. Pro*ctive) but none had great results and costly in the longer term...we recently got a system for the house just so we have better water in general, and unexpectedly my daugther's acne problem largely improved! I actually feel the "silkyness" myself after the shower and I don't feel like I need to put on as much lotion now. This acticle explains it, thanks!
I did not even think of how water effected my face until we went on vacation and the water at the motel was soft water. I noticed right away after one shower that the redness from my blemishes was way less compared to when I shower at home. When I got back home and washed my face I noticed how red and irritated it gets after just one use! I am thinking about buying distilled water to cleanse my face with, atleast until we can buy a water-softening system for our house.
I love the fact that you've looked at potential causes for acne, which is something i'm currently looking into and writing about in my personal blog. I firmly agree with your ideas on water since it's this element that allows us to clean our face, and i honestly think that the quality of it can affect how our skin reacts to different thing as a result of it which can cause such conditions from occurring.
Quite the opposite for me. I grew up using hard water and my skin was clear and blemish free until 4 years ago when I moved to another province that uses soft tap water.... since then I've had current bacterial inflammation on my face that I just cant seem to get rid of. It's pretty frustrating, since I can't seem to even find a bottled water that's "harder" than tap water.
I can attest to hard water and clogged pores. I am 31 and thought I had gotten over my acne problems by about 24-25 years old or so. We recently moved to a new house that had much harder water. As soon as the weather got cold, and I no longer got to go swimming in the beach salt water regularly (we live in FL), I started getting clogged pores that would develop into cysts. This is embarrassing as hell, when you work in a job where you have to make presentations to large groups.
Anyway, we recently installed a water softener and I saw an immediate difference. I can feel the difference in the water and my skin is no longer getting the clogged pores. It took a while to get used to the "slippery" feeling but I will gladly take a slippery feeling over getting massive cysts on my neck and forehead.
Not much is said about the hard water effects on the skin, but I am well aware of it now!

The Association for Interpretation, Japan
Digitize wildlife recording for better nature experiences
– Koji Furuse, Representative Director of Association for Interpretation Japan
The Association for Interpretation Japan is an organization which aims to spread the concept of nature interpretation, improve this educational activity, and ultimately contribute to society. Taking place in nature parks, museums, and other social education activities, nature interpretation is an experience-oriented and locally-focused communication method, which is meaningful, educational and enjoyable. For these purposes, the organization trains nature interpreters, networks with others, and conducts research and development in this field. Mr. Koji Furuse, Representative Director of the Association for Interpretation Japan, says that improving the quality of the exhibitions and nature programs held by nature centers across Japan will help raise people's awareness toward environmental conservation and sustainable society. Therefore, he's currently leading an initiative to use Open Data Kit and Google Fusion Tables at several nature centers, with the aim of making wildlife monitoring more efficient and improving the way information is presented."Located in Nasu, Tochigi Prefecture, the nature center "Nasu Heisei-no-mori Forest" displays a range of information which reflects their regional environment and the changes of the seasons. Their exhibitions are designed in a way that helps their visitors learn about basic information on the area before taking a walk around."
How they did it
Exhibitions and guide programs display information from the nature center's daily wildlife monitoring work. Therefore, it's important to gather the latest information about the surrounding environment, and organize and analyze it afterward. However, nature centers have been facing an issue: they have to complete a wide range of tasks, and not every center is well-staffed. Team members usually write down what they have observed in their own notebooks or reports on paper, and they are too busy to organize, compile and share their data."At many nature centers, team members write down their daily wildlife observations on paper, and then enter their data into their PCs (or leave them on paper)."
Mr. Furuse wanted to improve on the way nature centers monitored wildlife with technology, so he attended a Google Earth Outreach hands-on workshop that took place in May 2016, where he learned about Open Data Kit and Google Fusion Tables. He soon realized that these services would be a great solution to that issue and that nature centers could collaborate and share their data with one another. After the workshop, he began testing Open Data Kit and Google Fusion Tables with people from Yamano furusato mura Visitor Center (Okutama, Tokyo) and Nikko National Park Nasu Heisei-no-mori Forest (Nasu, Tochigi Prefecture).
– Koji Furuse, Representative Director of Association for Interpretation Japan
With Open Data Kit, Yamano furusato mura Visitor Center has been making steady progress in collecting a wide range of data in their surrounding environment. Mr Sakata, one of the interpreters at the nature center, talks about how effective Open Data Kit and Google technologies are and how excited he is about them. "Mapping has become so easy, which reduces the amount of desk work considerably. It's amazing that our data are connected to Google Maps. We also have debriefing sessions with other nature centers on a regular basis. Previously, we were just presenting our reports respectively, but in the near future, I hope we can all share our data with one another and collaborate on some projects. I see a great potential in this.""Wildlife recording is categorized by color into "Mammalians", "Birds", "Plants", "Insects", etc., and appear on Google Fusion Tables. As of now, they have recorded about 600 different pieces of information." "Wildlife recording can be displayed as a panel. The way information is presented keeps improving."
Moreover, Yamano furusato mura Visitor Center functions as a base for fieldwork for students from the Department of Animal Science at Teikyo University of Science, where Mr. Furuse teaches. As part of his class, he has used Open Data Kit with his students. In Autumn 2016, Masaki Shimada, Associate Professor at Teikyo University of Science, also led a fieldwork activity, in which about 50 students conducted two wildlife monitoring projects around the center.
As of now, roughly 600 different pieces of information have been gathered around the nature center. The previously collected data are being entered into Open Data Kit, making an impact on the exhibitions and guide programs held at the center.
Nasu Heisei-no-mori Forest is one of the leading nature centers in Japan, and vigorously conducts nature interpretation activities. The nature center has currently been working on the digitization of daily wildlife observations, applying the outcomes to their guide programs. Furthermore, the center has been receiving more and more inquiries from some residents in Nasu regarding the frequent appearances of Asian black bears in their areas over the past few years. Mr. Migita, one of the Interpreters at the center, says that it might be possible to find something new or in common by collaborating with other nature centers in the neighborhood to accumulate observation data of those moon bears with Open Data Kit. This can not only help the residents stay away from the bears, but it can also encourage re-thinking more deeply about the relationship between human beings and nature. If you know how to treat those bears, they might actually not be that dangerous."Mr. Migita using Open Data Kit to record moon bear's claw marks on a beech tree." "Mr. Migita recording trace information of moon bears around his nature center."

Sasso Corbaro Castle is one of the the three castles in Bellinzona, Switzerland.
Unlike the other two castles Sasso Corbaro is not integrated into the city walls. The first part of the castle was the north-eastern tower which was built in 1478 to close a gap in the defenses of the city. In 1479 a small garrison was moved to the tower.
The north-eastern keep currently has four stories, though no records exist of its original height and roof. It was used as a living area when the castle was occupied.

Sasso Corbaro, known as Unterwalden Castle after 1506 and Saint Barbara's Castle after 1818, is about 600 m (2,000 ft) south-east of town on a rocky hill. Unlike the other two castles Sasso Corbaro is not integrated into the city walls. The first part of the castle was the north-eastern tower which was built in 1478 to close a gap in the defenses of the city. In 1479 a small garrison was moved to the tower.
During peacetime the tower was used as a prison, though at least one prisoner escaped in 1494. The walls and south-west tower were added later.
The castle was struck by lightning multiple times during the 16th and 17th Centuries, and by 1900 was falling into ruins.
The fortress is a 25 by 25 m (82 by 82 ft) square with square towers on the north-east and south-west corners. The east wall is 1.8 m (5 ft 11) thick and other walls are about 1 m (3 ft) thick. All the walls have machicolations and swallowtail merlons for defense. The entrance to the courtyard is through the western wall, and contains evidence of a portcullis. The two story buildings on the south and west walls were both living quarters with a gabled roof. The castle chapel is located on the eastern side of the courtyard.
Today, Sasso Corbaro Castle houses the Sala Emma Poglia which is the "wooden room" built for the Emma family during the 17th Century. Originally located in the entrance hall of their home in Olivone in the Blenio Valley, the room was purchased by the Canton of Ticino in 1944 and housed first in the Castelgrande before being moved to the Sasso Corbaro in 1989. The room is panelled entirely in walnut and also includes the stüva, stove which provided heating. The stove bears the crest of the Emma family (an eagle and a lion rampant).
The museum also houses temporary exhibits. It is open from March until November.
Bellinzona is the capital city of the canton Ticino in Switzerland. The city is famous for its three castles (Castelgrande, Montebello, Sasso Corbaro) that have been UNESCO World Heritage Sites since 2000.
The city lies east of the Ticino River, at the foot of the Alps. It stretches along the river valley, surrounded by the Saint-Gotthard Massif.
French Bellinzone, local German: Bellenz
Bellinzona has always occupied an important geographic location in the Alps. Several key alpine passes meet in the area around Bellinzona, making it a key trading center.
In the late 1st Century BC a fort was built in the area during the reign of the Roman Emperor Augustus. The fort fell into disrepair in the following centuries. It was rebuilt and expanded in the 4th Century AD. During the reign of Diocletian and Constantin Bellinzona's location was recognized as a key point in the defences and a large castle was built to protect the walls. This chain of castles and watchtowers protected northern Italy from invasion.
The town that grew up around the fortifications was known as Bilitio.
Following the collapse of the Western Roman Empire the successor states, which included the Ostrogoths around 500 AD, the eastern Byzantine Empire towards the middle of the 6th Century, and the Longobards from 568, all took control of Bellinzona and used the castle to assert control of the surrounding passes.
Under the Longobards, Bellinzona became the site of a permanent garrison to protect the region from raids by the neighbouring Frankish and Alemannic tribes. The Longobards controlled the traffic on the important trade routes from Bellinzona.
At around 774 the Frankish Kingdom (later to become the Carolingian Empire) gained control of Bellinzona and the Ticino valley.
Two centuries later the Holy Roman Emperor Otto III, seeking to restore the glory of ancient Rome, opened the Lukmanier and St. Bernard passes. Control of Bellinzona was a key part of this expansion. The city was taken from Milan and given as a gift to the Bishop of Como, who supported Otto's dynasty.
In 1002, following the death of Otto III, Marquis Arduino of Ivrea declared himself King of Italy and ratified the bishop's ownership of the Castelgrande and the city. Two years later, after Arduino had been defeated by Henry II the King of Germany, Henry II's man Enrico II reratified the gift of the Castlegrande to the Bishop of Como.
During the Investiture Controversy of the late 11th Century the city of Bellinzona with its castle came under the control of the Hohenstaufens of Swabia. In 1180, Frederick I (Barbarossa) placed the city under the jurisdiction of the city of Como.
In the following years Como supported the Pope in his conflicts with the Holy Roman Emperor. However in 1239, Como sided with the Emperor Frederick II who quickly moved forces into Bellinzona and strengthened the Castelgrande. In 1242 Milan sent Guelph (pro-papacy) forces to take Bellinzona. The city and castle were taken, weakening the Emperor south of the Alps.
The town was back under the jurisdiction of Como in 1249 and conflicts in northern Italy continued. Castelgrande was besieged in 1284, 1292 and 1303.
Around the end of the 13th Century the Rusca family built another castle, Montebello, in Bellinzona, which they then controlled. By 1335 the Rusca family had been driven out of Como and had to retreat to Bellinzona. Five years later, in 1340, Milan besieged Bellinzona. Following a lengthy siege, the city fell to Milan but the Ruscas were allowed to keep Montebello.
Pro-papacy Milan would dominate Bellinzona for the next century and a half, though the pro-Imperial Rusca would also occupy part of the city.
Under the control of the Visconti, trade flourished and the city of Bellinzona grew. During the second half of the 14th Century a long wall, known as the Murata, was built across the entire Tessin valley. This wall allowed Milan to protect and tax the trade route over the St. Gotthard Pass.
The city was controlled by Milan through the Visconti family after 1340, although the Visconti did not have a formal title and feudal rights until 1396 when they were granted by King Wenceslaus.
The orderly growth of Bellinzona was threatened in 1402 when Duke Gian Galeazzo Visconti died. The following year Bellinzona was taken under the control of Alberto di Sacco of Val Mesolcina. During the period of unrest following Gian Galeazzo Visconti's death, a tower which would become the nucleus of the third castle, Sasso Corbaro, was built outside the city.
Alberto held Bellinzonauntil 1419 when it was taken over by Uri and Obwalden, states that had expanded into the Leventina Valley. Milan attacked the city three years later in 1422 after an offer to buy the city was rejected by the Swiss Confederation. Troops from Uri and Obwalden were driven from the city and later defeated at the Battle of Arbed. This defeat discouraged the expansionist intentions of Uri and its allies towards Lake Maggiore for the time being.
The border between Uri and Milan was fixed in the peace treaty of 1426, but in 1439 Uri invaded again. While they were unable to take Bellinzona. Victories of the Swiss troops led to Milan granting all of the Leventina Valley to Pollegio to Uri in 1441.
Following the death of Duke Filippo Maria Visconti in 1447, Bellinzona was in the middle of the succession crisis between Franchino Rusca of Locarno and Heinrich of Val Mesolcina, who were allied with Uri and the Ambrosian Republic in Milan. The war following the succession crisis lasted nearly three years until Francesco I Sforza seized power in Milan. Bellinzona quickly accepted the new Sforza dynasty and the peace and stability that followed.
Peace was broken again in 1478 when the Swiss once again attacked Bellinzona unsuccessfully. Swiss pride was restored by the Battle of Giornico which followed, when a force of 600 Swiss soldiers defeated 10,000 Milanese troops. Following the attack, Milan built the Sasso Corbaro either on the site of a tower which had been built nearly a century before. The other two castles were strengthened and the Murata wall across the valley was rebuilt. Much of the modern castles and fortifications date from this period of construction in the late 15th Century.
In 1499 nearly one and a half centuries of Milanese rule ended with the invasion of Milan by Louis XII of France. He captured Bellinzona and fearing an attack by the Swiss, fortified the Castelgrande with 1000 troops. Throughout the winter of 1499/1500 unrest in Bellinzona grew. In January an armed revolt of the citizens of Bellinzona drove the French troops from the city. Seeking protection from France, Bellinzona joined the Swiss Confederation on April 14, 1500. Bellinzona would remain under the joint administration of Uri, Schwyz and Nidwalden until the creation of the Helvetic Republic after the Napoleonic invasion of Switzerland in 1798. From 1798 to 1803, under the Helvetic Republic, Bellinzona was the capital of the canton of Bellinzona.
Following the Act of Mediation in 1803 Bellinzona became part of the independent canton of Ticino, and the capital of the new canton from 1803 to 1814. From that date until 1878, Bellinzona, Lugano, and Locarno, took turns being capital every six years.
The city includes the village of Artore and, since the incorporation in 1907, the former municipalities of Carasso , Daro, and Ravecchia.
The city is known for its carnival Rabadan, which has taken place for over 150 years.
The Three Castles, officially listed as the Three Castles, Defensive Wall and Ramparts of the Market-Town of Bellinzone, have been an UNESCO World Heritage Site since 2000. The group is composed of Castelgrande, castle Montebello, castle Sasso Corbaro and fortified walls.
Castelgrande is located on a rocky peak overlooking the valley, with a series of fortified walls that protect the old city and connect to the Montebello. The third castle (Sasso Corbaro) is located on a isolated rocky promontory south-east of the other two.

By Bianca Chan
The first graduate of Carleton University's Ph.D. program in the Department of Law and Legal Studies is passing on her experience and knowledge in the field by teaching a course that focuses on topics relevant to all Canadians.
Professor Rebecca Bromwich, a decorated scholar and Ontarian lawyer, teaches Criminal Law (or LAWS 2302V), a course offered both in-class and through Carleton University OnLine. It covers all the basics, from criminal liability in Canada to examining the Criminal Code and the role the Charter plays in the criminal legal system.
"Since everyone in Canada is subject to the penalties set forth under the Criminal Law, and also since it is democratically enacted, we are all both responsible for, and responsible to, the criminal justice system," Bromwich wrote in an email to CUOL. "This means that my course is about things that matter to everyone."
Bromwich says she believes law is embedded in its social context, so she puts a sociological spin on her class, analyzing the social aspects of criminal responsibility in Canada as well as the legal dimensions.
"There is a clear and growing body of evidence that the criminal justice system affects differently situated people, especially marginalized and racialized people, differently," she says.
For a field that consistently changes its geographical and social landscapes, understanding Canada's current legal environment will keep you up to date with what's going on with the criminal justice system and how it functions. Since ignorance of the law is no excuse, Bromwich says we are all expected to understand it.
"The system needs people who are informed and critically conscious of how it operates in order for it to function," she says.
Bromwich has been an Ontario lawyer for 14 years. As a graduate student at Carleton, Bromwich received numerous awards recognizing her academic achievements. She owes much of her success to the university because when she was pursuing her PhD, she says Carleton supported her innovative approach to research when other institutions considered it "too outside the box" and rejected it.
Now teaching where her roots were once planted and have since flourished, Bromwich says she feels inspired by her colleagues and is grateful to be a part of this institution.
"I see the arc of my journey and it helps me understand that my students are on their own journeys," she says. "I find it quite delightful when I hear of their subsequent life celebrations and successes."

As the temperatures turn cooler and the days get shorter, you may begin to notice something in the air other than a crisp breeze. Flu season is upon us and it's important to take preventative measures to stay healthy. We're all familiar with the steps: wash your hands, take time to get a vaccine, and avoid close contact with sick people.
While we all know the ways to keep our bodies physically healthy, do you know the ways to keep yourself mentally healthy? A great place to start is a mental health check-up. Bryan Medical Center offers free, anonymous online mental health assessments at Bryan Medical Center's anonymous and confidential online screening. Self-assessments are available for depression, anxiety, PTSD, and bipolar disorder. After you complete a screening, you'll receive customized feedback and recommendations on where to seek treatment.
Stay healthy this season both body and mind!

The end of the semester is upon us, which means work is crazier than ever. I started the semester with 175 students, and I'm ending with 174. You read that right: 1 student dropped this semester. Needless to say, I've had a full load on my plate. However, despite this being my most challenging semester to date, I feel pretty calm. Here are some techniques I've been employing that might help you too, whether it is the end of your semester or just the end of your year.
1.) Exercise.
I know, it sounds so obvious, and I read it in many magazines, but honestly, this is the first Fall semester that I've actually kept up my workout routine from start to finish (we usually do better in the spring). I talk about my workout plan here, but honestly, the important thing is just that you stick to your workout routine. Don't use shopping or feeling overwhelmed as an excuse to skip the gym because workouts help you feel physically better and mentally saner. Keep it up. I am exercising 4-5 times a week and instead of feeling like I have less time (which I worried about initially), I feel like I'm just using my time more productively. I promise you, the grading (or whatever you need to do) gets done. No student in my class has waited longer than 2 weeks to get a paper returned this semester.
2.) Take Time to Connect
I don't just mean with the people in your life, but with your pets too (fun fact: I am holding Lola right now as I type this). Obviously, you know the benefits of connecting with people: Brendan and I try to set aside time to just talk and catch up even on the busiest of days. When times are stressful, the last thing you want to do is neglect your friends and family or be crabby and stressed. Take time to meet up for lunch and do all the activities you normally enjoy. As for pets, keep in mind the holidays are stressful for them too. During Thanksgiving, we leave town without the cats, and for Christmas, we'll leave them with my parents (which means a road trip to Austin). I know they appreciate when I take time to cuddle and play with them. I think it helps reassure them that everything is okay, despite the change in their schedule.
3.) Deck the Halls
I've heard people say they skip Christmas decorating some years when they are busy. I think this is crazy! I am even sending out cards this year (despite the fact that we're already sending out so much wedding related mail). I am VERY much looking forward to decorating this weekend. Seeing the tree in my living room just brightens my mood. I'm also throwing a Christmas party on Sunday. No matter how busy things get, it's important to still let yourself enjoy this time of year.
4.) Shop on Line
As much as I love the joy of the holiday season, if there is one thing I can do without, it is crowds and long lines. Whenever possible, I order my gifts online. This saves you time and frustration.
5.) Countdown.
There are 15 days of the semester left, and you can bet I know it! Counting down to whatever you are looking forward to is always a wonderful thing. It keeps you feeling uplifted and encouraged.
6.) Be Giving
It uplifts your mood. Buy little presents for co-workers and friends, give a Christmas bonus to someone that works for you, or invite everyone you know to your Christmas party. The spirit of giving is what the season is about and including and remember others always makes me feel just as happy as when they include and remember me.
7.) Meditate or Do Yoga
See item 1. Yoga has SERIOUSLY improved my moods. I have an awesome teacher that pushes me to do what I never thought possible, and taking time to connect my breath to my movements and to be mindful of my thoughts and practice always leaves me feeling more calm.
8.) Make Reasonable to-do Lists
If my plan for the day involves teaching, office hours, lunch with a friend, a trip to the grocery store, and a workout (this was my actual Tuesday), I am only going to plan to grade about 6 papers that night. Don't "bite off more than you can chew." Budget your time so that all of your projects can be accomplished in the required timeframe.
9.) Sleep
Despite my crazy workload, I've never neglected sleep. Sure, there have been a few nights I only have had 6 hours, but I often get 7 or 8.
10.) Have a Silent Night
Tomorrow, Brendan and I are decorating the tree, cooking dinner together, and disconnecting from distractions. We'll put on a movie and just spend time together. I call it a "Silent Night," and this weekend, you owe yourself one.
No matter what you do, we hope these tips help bring you a peaceful end to the year!

When you have throbbing back pain, sleep may seem like an impossible feat. Aches and discomfort not only prevent you from falling asleep but they also make it difficult to stay asleep. If you are one to lose sleep due to pain, you are not alone. Two out of three people with chronic pain have trouble sleeping, according to the National Sleep Foundation.
While there is no universal sleep position to alleviate pain, there are a number of positions that can help you rest easy. A general rule to follow is to listen to what your body is telling you. Try out different positions until you find one that relieves the most pain.
Sleep Positions To Relieve Back Pain
- Side Sleepers: Sleeping on your side allows your spine to elongate, which helps prevent back and neck pain. Placing a pillow between your knees, such as the ContourSleep Knee Spacer, will add additional spinal support. When your spine is in a natural, ergonomic position, tense muscles begin to relax, hip, leg, and joint pain is decreased, and circulation is improved throughout the night.
- On Your Back: While this may not be the most popular sleep position, only 8% of people sleep on their backs, it is the healthiest option for most. Sleeping on your back allows your spine, head, and neck to rest in a neutral posture. If you are experiencing lower back pain, try a Bed Wedge System or an adjustable base. These will help maintain the natural curve of your lower back and provide great support while in bed, reading, or just relaxing. A small, rolled up towel placed under the small of your back will provide additional support.
- On Your Stomach: This position can lead to pain throughout the night, as it is difficult to keep your spine in a neutral position. If you must sleep on your stomach, you can reduce strain on your back by placing a pillow under your lower abdomen and pelvis. As with any sleep position, be sure to choose a pillow that reduces strain on your back and neck.
A key element of a good night's rest is a sleep environment that promotes comfort and relaxation. Be sure to visit your local Relax The Back store to speak with one of our trained specialists. They can help you find the perfect pillow and mattress for your specific needs.

Many of our competitors are very proud of their large class sizes, just check out their Facebook pages. If you're looking to be in a class for 50, 75, 100, or more, then we definitely aren't the school for you. If you are want a classroom experience that allows you to ask as many questions as you want and allows the instructor to get to know how to best help you, then we are the only choice in Central Florida.

Applying for your license
Here we've compiled some FAQ regarding the application process, qualifications, how to apply, and much more.
To apply for a Florida real estate license, you must meet the following minimum qualifications:
- Be 18-years of age or older.
- Possess a valid social security number.
- Have a high school diploma or GED.
- Be honest and of good moral character.
- Be competent and qualified.
In order to hold an active real estate license, you must be current on all child support payments. The DBPR will check to ensure that you are current using your social security number.
There are a few costs involved in obtaining your real estate license. In total, it will cost you $499.50 and is broken out as follows:
- Pre-License Education: $299
- Applying with the State of Florida: $83.75
- Digital Fingerprints and Background Check: $80
- State Exam at PearsonVue: $36.75 (each time)
Your application is good for 2-years from the date you submit your application.
While Florida does not have reciprocity with any other state, it does have mutual recognition agreements with Alabama, Arkansas, Connecticut, Georgia, Illinois, Mississippi, and Nebraska. If you live in one of those states, you will more than likely not need to take the 63-hour class and will only need to sit for an abbreviated state exam. The mutual recognition Florida law exam is a 40-question test and you will need to score a grade of 75% or higher.
Taking the Class
Here are some FAQ regarding the state rules regarding classroom attendance and examination.
The Florida Real Estate Commission requires that students be present for 90% of the required instructional time. Students missing more that 10% of instructional time will need to make that time up or will be denied entry to the end-of-course exam.
Yes, all pre-license and post-license classes for sales associates and brokers have a requirement that you pass an end-of-course exam. The exam consisted of 100-multiple choice questions and you have 3-hours to complete the exam.
If you don't pass the end of course exam, you'll have two options. The first option is to wait 30-days and take an alternate end of course exam. The second choice is to retake the class immediately for no additional charge.
Taking the State Exam
Here are some FAQ regarding the state rules regarding classroom attendance and examination.
The state of Florida has contracted with PearsonVue testing centers to administer the state license exam. Once the state has processed and approved your license application, you'll receive an email letting you know you are exam eligible. In that email there will be a link to schedule your state exam with PearsonVue. They have multiple locations throughout Central Florida including Orlando (near SeaWorld), Lake Mary, Lakeland, and Melbourne. Additional testing centers are located throughout the state of Florida.
That's a hard question to answer (ha ha ha). In all seriousness it is up to you. If you take the classroom course, pay attention, ask questions, and study, the test is easy. It's only hard if you don't know the material
You are permitted to take the state exam as many times as you would like until you pass. If you fail the exam, you will be given the fail notice that includes the number of questions from each category that you got wrong. You'll just need to wait until the next day for PearsonVue to mark you as "failed" in their system so that you can reschedule a new testing appointment. Don't forget, each time you take the state exam there is a charge from the testing vendor.
You'll need to bring the following three things with you when you go take your state exam:
- A current, valid, government issued photo ID card as well as a second form of identification like a passport or credit card.
- Your pass certificate from the real estate school indicating you passed the pre-license end of course exam.
- A calculator that is approved by the state of Florida for use during the exam.
Please note that you will not be able to bring any notes, a cell phone, watch, or anything else into the testing center. They will provide you will scratch paper to use during the exam.
