FOUR ACTIVITIES TO DO WHEN YOU HAVE A HEADACHE...

By

Many times we experience an out of the blue bout of headache and it does not necessarily happen because of an underlying health issue. Nevertheless, headache should not be ignored if it is recurrent.

Quote by - Mark Lawrence


The other day, I had a little stand-off with headache. I assume, I was profusely bored or probably did not quite listen to my own preaching about not to browse smart phone aimlessly! 
An angelic soul suggested I better gulp down a bottle of Coke. The obedience in me nodded. That is when the heavens swirled open and these four great ideas winked at me and the red can of Coke shone brighter than ever.

So, let us dive in quickly.




1. Get a Coloring Book:

Coloring little corners of a leaf, flower or a picturesque landscape and spilling hues of brightness on paper is itself relaxing. Looking at soft or bright tones of color have an impact on our brain. It works like mosaic. You tend to notice how coloring is taking place.

All you need is a print-out or a coloring book, some color pencils, pen, sketch pens or a blank sheet to sketch your own design.
Same goes for painting. Only playing with color on paper or canvas is enough to forget your headache for a while.





2. Create A Photo Album:

Although technology has overtaken a lot of spheres of our lives, there are some old ways of doing things that are still exciting just like making a photo album.
Not only making a new one, looking at your old collection of albums also brings sweetness and relaxation.
Say Cheese!

3. Photography:

This goes without saying now that we have talked about photo albums already!
Photography, especially capturing nature is never futile. A chirping bird, a jumping frog, withered leaves, budding flower, a little pond, or anything where your mind takes you to.
If you do not enjoy taking pictures, sitting and witnessing entities of nature is rewarding to your eyes, relieving you of your headache.

4. Learn A Quick Activity:

A new quick activity to engage you with hand-eye coordination is an energy saver mechanism. Learning activities like sewing, painting, coloring, building with Lego, miniature art, Origami etc soothe your brain without making you restless.


These are some activities I have always tried when I am bored. They are a great source of feel-good-factor.
Let me know what you think of these.

    Till now I had been dealing with headaches by lying on bed which was not at all effective. Hope to use this technique soon. Thanks

The real tug of war is basically based on rights and duties. Who would know what and how things took place in history that has its ripples alive till date such that women seem to have to fight for basic rights for their cause and some misunderstood assumptions are born which tell men that somehow, their rights are being snatched away in the process of making way for women. The basic idea of right to live in peace professed in almost all global social movements is lost in the milieu of ignorance and flawed disposition of pride and arrogance.

A SIMPLE CRANBERRY CAKE...

Without knowledge, I once grabbed cranberries for a leisure munching, imagining them to taste sweet by their look.  Later I was scampering to look for a recipe to make something out of it and not let it go waste.  Cranberries in reality taste too sour. However, they taste amazing when  dried or cooked.  Cake seemed to be a great idea as I had eaten it before somewhere.  This is going to be a very simple recipe of a homemade cake with just an addition of cranberries. Let us go step by step:  Even though originally the secret ingredient to cooking or baking is a smile that pirouettes on your face, specific ingredients are listed below. 1. Dry Ingredients: Gather two small to medium sized cups of all-purpose flour. One cup of fine sugar. You can replace sugar with honey/ maple syrup/ agave. If you replace sugar, add it later with wet ingredients (Step 2) One spoon salt One spoon baking powder Give it a mix by simple whipping or with a hand ble...

SAVE THOSE LOCKS...

    PC:   Image by Gabriela Kania from Pixabay  What is more worrisome to you, those mistakenly dropped strands in your food or those tangled in your comb? Well, both are equally frightening, including those which you see going down the drain in front of your eyes as you watch helplessly like a mute spectator. Each one of us is fully aware of the horror of hair loss. The affect such a loss has on our psyche to that terror we feel at the dead of night thinking of solutions to stop the recession, err...the hair loss, has an immense impact on us. And, we got nothing but to pat our 'light-head' to sleep. Gruesome sketch, right? But it is what it is! When we start losing hair and we no longer wake up to dreams of face and hands full of extra voluminous hair out of nowhere as we once used to, the terror depicted above stands valid.  What A Malady:  Hair is a natural resource. We are born with it. Those sitting on scalp are believed to be the most sought after and...
