When you’ve sustained a serious injury, it’s important that you recover properly to avoid any long term effects.

Your Doctor

 

This is the person that you should always listen most closely to. Your doctor will be able to give you good advice on how long to wait before you start being active again. It’s important that you listen to them, especially if you’ve got a sports injury. They’ll also be able to give you some indication of what painkillers etc. you should be taking. If you ignore your doctor’s advice and try to carry on exercising or lifting heavy things before they think you’re ready, you’re likely to get an injury again.

 

Rehabilitation Services

 

When you’ve had a particularly serious injury, you might not be able to function properly on your own. That’s fine if you’ve got other people in the house that can help but if you live alone, it can be a real struggle. In that case, you should go to a hospital that offers rehabilitation services. You’ll have medical professionals on hand at all times to help you recover from the injury and then regain your independence as well. When you leave, you’ll be ready to carry on life as normal without risk of injuring yourself again.

 

Nutritionists

 

People that are trying to lose weight and get in shape will often use nutritionists to advise them on their eating habits, but they’re great for helping you to recover from an injury as well. When your body is trying to rebuild itself it needs certain things, depending on where the injury is. Muscle injuries need more protein, damaged bones need more calcium etc. It’s also important that you’re not eating anything bad that could slow your recovery down and you’re getting a good amount of vitamins and nutrients generally. A good nutritionist will be able to help you come up with a diet plan that inspires recovery and helps you to get back to normal as quickly as possible.

 

Personal Trainer

 

When the doctor finally says that you can start being active again, that doesn’t mean you’re back to normal. If you carry on your normal exercise routine, you’ll end up injuring yourself again. You need to gradually build up your strength in the affected area. The best way to do this safely is to get a personal trainer, let them know about your injury and ask their advice on how to exercise it safely. They’ll be able to write you a routine that you can do safely and get back to normal.

 

Recovering from an injury doesn’t have to be a solo journey. There are plenty of people out there that can help, so make use of them.

It’s Time To Let Yourself Get Out More

It’s Time To Let Yourself Get Out More

If you’re the kind of person who loves to lounge on the sofa, closing the curtains and existing in your own dark haven, it might be time to open the door and step outside… Of course you’re allowed to dwell in your own home, but when you’re only heading out for work to another building you rarely get out of, your next checkup is going to reflect how much this has damaged your health!

 

A lot of people are in this boat, and it’s a ship that’s rapidly sinking. Hey, considering most accidents happen within the home, we can immediately see there’s a lot of health benefits to get from spending less and less time within it!

Light Exercise Improves How You See Yourself

 

Even when you’re just going for a brisk walk around the block, or it’s time to walk the dog, you’re going to be so much healthier because of the outdoor environment you’ve been exposed to. At the end of the day, five minutes is all you need to feel like you’ve put effort into your body shape!

 

So put your boots on and get hiking; a half hour in the park, taking photos of flowers and saying hi to passers-by is going to dramatically affect how good you feel about yourself. Beach bodies are rarely made on the beach after all.

 

A Walk in the Woods is Good for Your Immunity

 

Even when you’ve got an urgent care clinic near me, there’s nothing that beats a little natural protection you get from spending a good amount of time in the outdoors, wandering through various landscapes and getting muddy hiking boots.

 

Being outside amongst nature, and everything the sun has to show you when it’s raining down on your skin and helping you to produce happy chemicals is going to make you feel a lot better than being cooped up indoors. And those chemicals have lasting effects on your body.

 

Not to mention there’s been a lot of research into what a good forest walk can do for the cancer killing cells inside your body, and how you can produce a lot more of them based on the relaxing environment only a natural landscape can give you!

 

You Can Feel a Lot More at Peace

 

When you’re out and about, stopping to smell the daisies and watching bees do their work, you’re going to feel a lot more at home than actually being in your home. Humans evolved to be outside after all, and literally going back to your roots is something not enough of us do. If you want to be happy, just head outside to watch the birds in the trees and feel the weather on your skin.

 

Forget what’s on TV! If you’re not getting out at least twice a week, it’s time to change your habits for the better. You should make it a top priority to work on, and let yourself focus all your energy on being out and about more often.

3 Silent, Invisible Dangers That Could Be In Your Home

3 Silent, Invisible Dangers That Could Be In Your Home

Is your home safe for you and your family? You might immediately say yes, of course, it is. But, there could be issues in your home that you are completely overlooking. For instance, you may have a problem with the water in your home. We often don’t think about water being dangerous, particularly when it comes out of the taps on our property but it certainly could be.

 

Trouble In The Water Supply

Water can be dangerous in a number of ways. For instance, you might find that your water is high in fluoride. Fluoride is a cleaning chemical that can be found in toothpaste. It’s one of the reasons why you should spit toothpaste out rather than swallowing it. Why then do an alarming number of properties have high levels of the chemical in their water supply? It’s used to clean the water, and on occasion, far too much of the substance is left in the liquid. The problem is that you can’t even see that the substance is there so you could be drinking it without even realizing it. However, if you get a high quality water filter you might be able to eliminate this issue. That’s not even the only chemical that might be in your water. Ultimately, it may be healthier to switch to bottled water rather than to trust what comes out of your tap.

 

Water is just one of the silent dangers in your property. Let’s look at a few others.

 

Mouldy Windows

 

Mould can most commonly be found around the windows due to the issues with air circulation or an issue with the insulation in your property. If cold air meets warm air, there’s a good chance that mould will start to form due to the moisture in the air. The spores that mould releases into the air while not deadly can be problematic for your breathing and for young children in particular. If you have a child who has asthma or another serious breathing difficulty, you must make sure that mould is not present in any of the rooms of your property. Think Tank Home has lots of advice on how to deal with mould quickly and effectively if you are struggling. But one of the easiest ways to avoid it is with a dehumidifier. Remember it will often just look like dirt around the windowsill.

 

Of course, the mould isn’t the only problem that can causes issues with breathing. High levels of dust in the air can also be quite hazardous. This can happen, particularly in homes where a lot of DIY work has been taking place.

 

Lead Paint

Finally, this is something you need to think about if you are buying a new home soon. A lot of homes on the market today still have lead paint on the walls. It’s particularly common in older homes, and it is usually due to the fact that the owner can not afford to have it removed. Do make sure that you test for an issue with like before investing in an older property. Even a spoonful is toxic to children.

Noise is a big factor when you’re trying to sleep, and it’s amazing how much more aware of sounds we are when we’re lying in bed trying to drift off! Do as much as you can to come up with ways of countering the noise that plagues your sleep schedule. For instance, you might want to invest in earplugs of some description. Having all the windows and doors shut might be an idea as well. Some people find they are better able to drift off listening to music or having some background noise, so this is something to consider as well.

 

Temperature Check

 

It’s not just noise that is a factor for consideration here though – you also have to think about temperature. In the summer and winter, the weather is going to be very different, and this can affect your sleeping patterns. Some people get too hot and need the window open for perfect balance. Others get too cold and will insist on windows shut, multiple layers, and a hot water bottle! Finding the optimum room temperature for great sleep is the best way to get a more complete night of uninterrupted rest.

Sleeping on Air

Choosing the perfect mattress can relax you more, it reduces the risk of pain and discomfort, and you can be much more relaxed as a result.

Decorate with A Message

By Tia Cristy

Decorate with A Message

Home décor is all about personal touch. Bare walls can feel cold and drab. Dressing up any colored wall with a splash of your own creative side can transcend your room into your masterpiece. When deciding what to place on the walls take your time to figure out what you can live with, what will make you happy to look at and what will inspire you day in and day out.

You Don’t Need to be a Business to Have a Sign

Adding a business sign to a feature wall in your home can become a great conversational piece. Place a sign that says simply ‘coffee’ in the kitchen can achieve a good mental vibe for morning. If letters are more your style, you can get individual letters to spell out your message. For the kids room, why not try large, chunky, metallic initials over the beds or dressers.

Go Neon

Neon isn’t just for the local pubs or salons. Picking up a neon sign for the man cave or placing one above the wet bar can attract just the right amount of attention.

Stay Inspired  

Placing an inspiring quote on the wall can fill a blank wall and give it a whole new life. If your not ready for the commitment on a wall, why not place a decal on a piece of old wood, and then hang the sign. Think about it, there are quotes for every room and every occasion. It’s a simple peel n’ stick method for art that will last for many years to come. If you have a wall design in your mind, but haven’t found it in the store, check out Americansignsletters.com where you can upload a picture for them to create your custom art. They even offer free shipping on every purchase, which is great for business owners too who are looking to revamp their signage.

So remember, when it comes to home décor, remember to make it your own space.
