It's odd how people experience the benefits of self-care almost every day, yet many misunderstand what it's all about.
Some seem to believe it has to do with working out and getting physically fit, while others believe it is nothing more than self-indulgence—a waste of otherwise productive time.
In actuality, self-care is a very simple thing; it's the way you feel when you're relaxed while enjoying a favorite book or getting lost in a much-loved classic movie.
Well-being is difficult to explain—you just know it's there and that it's important to your happiness. Observing self-care is recognizing that your emotional needs are just as important as your physical health.
Simple relaxation
Accepting the importance of self-care means accepting those simple opportunities for relaxation.
Just sitting quietly and looking out the window, doing deep-breathing exercises, or practicing mindfulness can relieve stress and reward you psychologically and emotionally in ways you may not even fully understand.
Finding ways to unwind is how you separate from factors that drive up blood pressure and leave you feeling anxious or depressed.
Learning to relax can make it easier to accept the things we have no real control over.
Get your sleep
Feeling good and capable of withstanding the pressures and challenges of day-to-day living greatly depends on getting enough rest every night.
That means maintaining a sleep-conducive bedroom that's totally dark, quiet, and cool.
It's also necessary to make sure your mattress is capable of supporting your body and keeping your spine aligned for a full night's rest—meaning anywhere between seven and nine hours a night.
Also, never underestimate the importance of eating a healthy diet.
Research shows that eating a healthy diet can actually combat depression, anxiety, and other negative aspects of mental health.
Properly fueling and resting your body are key elements in any healthy self-care regime.
Commune with nature
Few things are as stress-relieving as spending time in nature.
There's something about walking through a lush, green forest or relaxing along the banks of a slow-moving river that helps you see things in a different perspective and bring to mind the people who matter most in your life.
Contemplation is much easier hiking through the wilderness or taking a jog along the beach.
All things considered, nature may be the best place for allowing your mind to wander free and mentally detach from work and other personal responsibilities.
Switch off social media
You probably know someone who can't seem to stop staring at their smartphone and responding to Instagram and Facebook posts.
Social media is a great way to stay in touch, but it can also quickly become a compulsion.
It's not surprising to find that 67 percent of smartphone users check messages whether or not they're prompted.
So it's important to shut out the world sometimes and leave trivial exchanges for later.
Perhaps you could even consider taking a social-media detox from time to time. Sometimes, there's great value in just enjoying a moment without it being intruded on.
Getting to 'no'
Most of us are pre-programmed to please at work and at home, to go out of our way to help when someone asks.
And it's a good and noble thing—except when it becomes overwhelming or when someone tries to take advantage of your good nature, knowing you'll feel compelled to say "yes."
Sometimes, we need to diplomatically say "no" when it's in the best interests of our mental health to politely decline.
Self-care is an important form of self-preservation, something that everyone needs to practice for the sake of mental health.
It's not selfishness; it isn't self-indulgence, and it's an important strategy for coping with the pressure and stressors that surround us every day.

A friend of mine was saying her almost 4-year-old was teething the other day? I gave her a confused look. I thought they were done after the 2 year molars till baby teeth start faling out. She said no there is a 4 year molars and he's getting them. Then today, my DS (dear son) started complaining that his teeth hurt. He opened his mouth and pointed all the way back, behind his last molar. I looked with a flashlight and it is white, like when a child is teething. So odd!
A quick google search turned up both 4 year and 6 year molars. I think they are the same ones, kids just get them at different times. Is this correct? Odd since DS (dear son) was a late teether. Didn't get any teeth till 9 months, then was slow after that. Two year molars were finally in a couple months before his 3rd bday. Anyway, anyone else's AB getting 4/6 (whatever!) year molars?

| 7.9°C Dublin
THE parents of a four-year-old boy with Down syndrome and suffering from leukaemia are refusing to allow him to receive life-saving treatment in a hospital, a court heard.
The HSE yesterday obtained permission from president of the High Court, Mr Justice Nicholas Kearns, to serve notice on the parents that proceedings are being brought challenging their decision.
The parents, who cannot be identified by court order, want their son to receive alternative treatment and have withdrawn permission for a hospital to continue treatment it was giving him, said Felix McEnroy for the HSE. This is life-saving treatment and a second opinion confirming this had been received from Great Ormond Street Hospital in London, he added.
Attempts to come to an arrangement with the parents in lengthy discussions did not succeed.
One of the difficulties was getting legal representation for the parents and the HSE is pursuing this with the legal aid board, he added.
Mr Justice Kearns granted the HSE permission to serve the papers on the parents at short notice and said that the matter could come before him again next week.

Flexible device harvests body heat to power wearable electronics
There have been no shortage of materials that harvest power from the human body. From generators that produce electricity from the friction or bending of our movements to devices that use the body to form a battery, scientists have been exploring how our everyday existence can lend power to the electronics we rely upon.
Researchers at North Carolina State University have created a device that has the potential to be the best of its kind. The flexible thermoelectric generator not only is capable of producing electricity from body heat, but it is also able to self heal.
The flexibility of the device allows it to be fitted to many more applications, especially when conforming to the human body, but as of yet, flexible thermoelectric devices haven't been able to perform as well as rigid ones."We wanted to design a flexible thermoelectric harvester that does not compromise on the material quality of rigid devices yet provides similar or better efficiency," said Mehmet Ozturk, a professor of electrical and computer engineering at NC State and corresponding author of a paper describing the work. "Using rigid devices is not the best option when you consider a number of different factors."
They started out by using the same thermoelectric materials that are used in rigid devices so that manufacturing would be simplified. The use of liquid metal to connect the thermoelectric elements, which have a low resistance, increased the power output while also making the device self-healing since the liquid metal can reconnect if a connection is broken.
The researchers plan on continuing to improve the efficiency of the energy harvester, but a future where it could be used to power wearable medical devices and environmental sensors like air quality monitors and more could be right around the corner.

International Belgium
European Adventure
The Adventure
On a trip to Zaventem, Belgium, you're minutes from the breathtaking capital buildings of Brussels and a 10th-century moated castle in Ghent. This Lifetree Adventure is ideal for youth groups traveling internationally for the first time (home base is just 5 minutes from the airport). Although you'll have modern amenities similar to those in the U.S., your group will experience important service in the midst of Western European culture—and eat a lot of french fries!
Operation Mobilization has been working from their base in Belgium to share the gospel with Europeans. They transformed an old paper factory into a coordination hub for short- and long-term missionaries. Now developed into a hospitality and conference center, their headquarters is used to promote evangelism and church planting. Your group will work on construction projects to help renovate and expand this facility to provide more space for growing Christian ministries.
The Service
Help renovate an old paper factory being used as a Christian conference center and ministry base! It currently hosts two church congregations—and, after the expansion, will have space for two new ministries! Regardless of your construction skill level, you'll bless Belgium by investing time in:
- Serving alongside a local church
- Construction (skilled or unskilled)
- Transforming a ministry base
Whether you're painting, cleaning, or doing construction work, you'll be helping expand a ministry—all just a train ride away from historic cities and sightseeing opportunities!

This coming weekend most Dutch kids of eight years old and younger will sense the excitement that comes with the coming of Sinterklaas.
Originally the guy was called Saint Nicholas and historically he was a bishop who did a lot of good expecially for sailors, merchants and children. Hence the Dutch fascination with the character. He served as a patron for the sailors in the "golden" 17th century and as protector of merchants in far away market-places. He also served as a boogyman for our kids. The Americans stole the idea, gave him a lot of extra weight, the eyes of a Mongol, the smile of a retard and a bottle of Coca Cola and renamed him Santa Claus. The b*st*rds!
Past week was again funfilled: my son's school held a bookmarket in favour of their library and I managed to get my hands on some of the masterpieces ever let loose on this world. Books on transfigurism, history, sex and a physical handicap and more beauties. Also I think I might have found a new employer next to the one that already has me on the payroll. It looks like I've been given the role of financial advisor for foundation "The Illuseum", an interactive museum near my home that also serves as a meeting place for local artists, a podium for performance artists and as gallery for photographers, painters, sculpters and the likes.
Should you ever be in the area...
A new problem has risen and thusfar no one has come up with a satisfiying solution.

CLOCK FOLDABLE {FREEBIE} I {Heart} Teaching: It's Time! The first three days of 2nd grade were a hit!
We've gotten to know each other a bit, so today it was time to get to business! We reviewed (from 1st grade) how to tell time to the hour. Mrs. Lee's Kindergarten: Dinosaurs. I have to tell y'all the funniest story.
I was reading the book Dinosaurs, Dinosaurs, Dinosaurs by Byron Barton and it starts out like, "A long time ago"...so I asked my kids what they thought that meant and a few said forever ago, like a thousand years, and one little girls says, "yeah, back in the 80's". I had to laugh! So precious....anywho...we learned all about dinosaurs this week...well actually last week, then the storms came and we were out three days so we finished up this week and "squeezed in" reptiles for two days. Preschool Math Lesson : Lego Measurement. Using non-standard units ( like lego blocks, your own feet, etc…) to introduce children to measurement is a fun and functional way of doing it.
They are comfortable with the items they are using to measure, and it's a little less abstract than a standard unit like an inch or centimeter. They can see and manipulate these units and are familiar with them as well. My son loved this and has been asking to measure his sister in Legos too. Gather your materials. You will need some blocks ( we are using Lego Duplo), a sheet of paper, marker, and items to measure. Mrs. Lee's Kindergarten: Dinosaurs. Teaching Time.
Primary Press: The Mitten. Whew!!
Last week was a whirlwind!! My little one started daycare the week we came back to school and of course last week, ended up sick and out of "big girl school" the whole week! Luckily, she finally started feeling better this past weekend and was able to go back to school yesterday. I'm praying we make it through this month with no more sickness! In class last week, we talked about animals in winter and focused on the book The Mitten, by Jen Brett. Maths with lego. I've written before about taking a child's passion and using it as a way to explore different areas of play and learning. Here's an idea for mixing in some maths – which we're doing through the medium of Lego, but you can adapt it to suit whatever your child is interested in, be it cars, dinosaurs or shells.
Measuring with Lego Gather your investigation equipment: clipboard, pencil and some LegoSelect your experiment: what would you like to measure? Math Activities Archives - Page 2 of 17. This math craft activity is the perfect example of mixing directed learning and creativity. When I create activities like these I try to make them appeal to the kids who love creative art as well as the ones that are excited by the math. You will find that there is a ton of overlap as well, kids who are into math love art, kids who are great readers love to move, and when we only focus on one way to teach we miss out on so much fun as well as learning. When I created this activity I messed up. My kids were my testers and the activity failed the game test.
Beansprouts Preschool Blog: Height Chart. We had a lot of fun doing a height measurement chart with the kids today. The kids chose yarn and flower colors and we saw just how much they've sprouted! Inspiration for this chart came from Learning and Teaching with Preschoolers. They also link some other very interesting looking measurement activities! I was also inspired by their basket of measuring tapes, so I included the only one that I could find and added some strings, some taller and some shorter than their bodies.
Let's just see what happens. Going Back to Kinder: Quick Post on Measuring. Hi all...very quick post on a measuring activity I did with my kiddos today! I saw this on pinterest the other day and thought it was cool....soooo my kids measured with yarn! They loved it and so did I! I made this student response sheet to go with it. Time Flies Kite Clock Game. Lory's Page: Debbie Diller's Chapter 8 Measurement. Measurement is a great opportunity for our students to participate in hands-on activities, explore their environment and learn a bunch of new math vocabulary! :) Debbie Diller tells us that it's overwhelming for children to remember all the measurement vocabulary we ask them to use, especially if we teach all the strands of measurement at once.
She said, "This is a very important (and foundational) area of mathematics, so be sure to provide enough time to teach measurement concepts well. " "If possible, start by teaching students how to measure length over several weeks... a few weeks or even months later, teach about measuring weight or capacity. Instruction on measuring time should take place later in the year. " Mrs. Lee's Kindergarten: Dinosaurs. 7 Creative Ways to Learn with Dinosaurs and Fossils.

Peer Budhan Ali Shah – Facts & History
We all know Baba Pir Budhan Ali Shah but very few of us know his real name which was Janab Shamsuddin. It is said that he lived about 500 years. Pir Budhan Ali Shah was born in Talwandi, in the erstwhile Punjab state of India. It is also the birth place of Guru Nanak Sahib. Talwandi is currently in Pakistan.
History doesn't speak much about his early life but Khawaja Abdul Ghani has written that Pir Budhan Ali Shah was a pious saint and given supplications from his very childhood. Moreover, he writes that Budhan Ali was a man of high character.
Dargah Peer Baba ( Jammu)
The 'Dargah' of Peer Budhan Ali Shah is situated at Satwari area of Jammu near the Airport.
This dargah is not only quite globally famous but also associated with two of the most prominent Sikh Gurus.
Pir Baba was very religious and pious since his childhood. He was also a sufi saint. His resting place is in Jammu, a city in an Indian state of Kashmir. However, this Dargah is mostly visited by the people of all religions but Muslims and Sikhs keep visiting throughout the year.
This Dargah is famous for its several virtues one which is that visiting this Dargah keeps evil spirits away from every one's life.
What is evil spirit here?
Evil spirits are the spirits which are considered unsatisfied and these spirits usually target humans to get the satisfaction, if someone is occupied by evil spirits it is very difficult to get away from it.
This shrine is also very famous for protecting the people of the Jammu city from mishaps and any other evil spirits.
Guru Nanak and Baba Budhan Ali Shah
The founder and the first of the ten Gurus of Sikhism was Guru Nanak. His birth place is Punjab which is now part of Pakistan. Guru Nanak and Pir Budhan Ali Shah were very close to each other because they both had a common birth place.
This brotherhood is very famous among all the devotees, however Guru Nanak and Baba Shamsuddin met on different occasions several times but once Guru Nanak invited Baba Shamsuddin to Anandpur Sahib (Pakistan) and suggested him to stay there but Pir Budhan Ali Shah declined saying that two swords cannot be kept in one scabbard. Guru Nanak agreed and said who ever comes to Anand Sahib will visit Kiratpur Sahib before.
Miracle of Guru Nanak in the form of Guru Hargobind Singh Sahib.
As the story goes, once Guru Nanak Sahib visited Peer baba but at the time of Guru Nanak's return, peer budhan ali shah was concerned about his security. There was a man-eating lion loose in the fields hence he was concerned for Guru Nanak's safety. Upon hearing this, Guru Nanak replied that if the lion hasn't harmed Budhan Ali till now how could it harm him?
Then, in a miracle no less, the lion itself paid respect to Guru Nanak. Peer baba then ordered the lion to milk the goats and offered the milk to Guru Nanak, but he refused to drink the milk and told that he will drink this on sixth Padshahi (padshahi is the reign of guru).
Pir baba was concerned that he may not live that long as he was quite old at that time. So Guru Nanak blessed him a longer life and told him to keep trust. Guru Nanak then told that, as a sign of his appearance during the Padshahi, he hold Budhan Ali's right thumb.
During the sixth Padshahi, Peer budhan ali shah demanded Guru Gobind Ji hold his right thumb which Hargobind Singh Ji did. After this peer baba offered him fresh and warm milk.
The authenticity of above story is, of course, unverified.
Gurudwara Tali Sahib
Guru Hargobind Ji has paid a visit to the tomb of Peer Baba Shah and hence the origin of the said tradition. Gurudwara Tali Sahib (Talab Tillo) is the place where the Guru Sahib stayed during his visit to Jammu city.

Baba Shamsuddin's journey to Jammu
This is not properly known as to how Pir Budhan Ali Shah reached Jammu. But this is certain that he reached here after two great saints Pir Roshan Ali Shah & Pir Mitha. These were the two great saints who migrated to Jammu before Satwari wale Peer Baba, in 15th century who was the one of the Muslim holy men who reached here before the Muslims invaders. Pir Budhan Ali Shah is also called as Satwari wale Peer Baba, his Dargah is located towards Satwari region near Jammu airport hence his title.
