Clean water is essential for life. We need it more than we realize; to clean, shower, drink and cook. If we really think about it, clean water is the basis of our lifestyle and health. Today most of us only have access to chlorine treated water. Though it is termed “clean” is it really safe to consume and use?
Chlorine treated water still has a lot of contaminants and bacteria on top of the chemicals that it is treated with. Every person needs to have enough water every day for the body to function right as 70 percent of our body is made of water.
Your tap water may go through the cleaning and purifying process but it is still not safe to drink. This is because water picks up bacteria when it is left stagnant in the water facility. Even though two-thirds of the earth’s surface is dominated by water, it is ironic that a very small part of is safe to drink.

How to Boost Your Daughter’s Self Esteem

Nowadays, it is hard to raise daughters with a positive self-image thanks to the impossibly high standards of beauty that celebrities set. As a parent, you have a great influence on your children’s life. Therefore, you can boost your daughter’s self-esteem from a young age to ensure that she grows up to be a confident woman.
Here are some tips that will help you to boost your daughter’s self-esteem:

Enroll Her in Sports

According to research, children who play sports have higher self-esteem than those who do not. When a girl plays sports, she will look at other girls to determine her value instead of relying on what boys think. Wearing sports uniforms such as custom softball jerseys will make your daughter feel like a part of something bigger, which will improve her self-image significantly.

Let Her Know You Love Her

You need to let your child know that you love her no matter what. Her appearance and dress code might change but your love should remain the same. Even though children rely on their peers for feedback, what you think as a parent still matters. You should never stop reiterating your love even when your child acts out to test your patience.

Help Her Build Skills

Instead of focusing on looks and buying new things, you should get your daughter involved in activities that will build up her self-esteem. Theater, music, and art are just some of the activities that your daughter can take up to build her self-worth. With such activities to keep her busy, your daughter will be able to express herself through creativity or words instead of getting by on looks.

Direct Praise away from Her Appearance

No matter how pretty your daughter might be, you need to balance your compliments about her looks with compliments about who she is as a person. If you find yourself giving too many compliments about her appearance, you should challenge yourself to praise her twice as much on things that are not based on her appearance. Once you form a habit, you should start complimenting other girls the same way.

Monitor the Media in the House

As a parent, you need to know what magazines you have lying around the house. After your daughter looks at magazines that show some unrealistic female images, she will feel imperfect and this will affect her self-image negatively. To avoid this, you should not have such magazines in your house.

Moreover, you should watch television together with your daughter and take every chance you can to discuss the content that you are seeing.

How you can handle kids during a long-distance move


moving.jpeg


Moving is mentally and physically exhausting. But it can be quite terrifying for kids. This is because kids function through routine and it is tough for them to feel comfortable in a new neighborhood. Also, children take more time to get accustomed to new surroundings than adults. So, the moving process, understandably, could be a traumatic experience for them to handle. It is equivalent to stepping out of one's comfort zones.


We understand the gravity of such a situation. Hence, we brought up a blog post which will serve as a guideline for the parents. This will help you come up with a plan to deal with children when making the big move.
To begin with, the first step should be to think systematically. How will you break the news to your kids? Yes! You cannot just tell them, "Hey, pack up! We got to move". That is a big no. There has to be a decent approach to this. It is only natural to be vulnerable at such an age and there has to be some way to handle this vulnerability element.

How to Travel With Kids on a Budget




If you’re like many people, the words “kids” and “fun vacation” don’t always go together. As a parent, it can be a challenge to take a fun trip with small children. It requires extra preparation, more travel expenses, and at times, emotional breakdowns in airport terminals. However, traveling with your kids can still be a fun, memorable, way to build lasting bonds with your children. The following suggestions will help you plan a great trip with your kids that won’t break the bank.

1. Rent a House

Hotel rooms can be very expensive, especially when you need multiple beds. If you rent a house or apartment you can often save money, especially if you’re traveling with multiple people. Home sharing sites like Airbnb, VRBO, or FlipKey are a few great places to start to look for deals on accommodations. Plus, you can meet local people who live in the area and know the neighborhoods and destinations that you’re visiting.

2. Pack Lunches for the Day

Eating out can be a huge traveling expense, especially if you have multiple hungry mouths to feed. If you eat out every day with several people you are likely going to be spending a lot. One way to cut down costs is to go to a local grocery store and buy groceries to make sack lunches. This will be much less than paying for restaurant meals, plus you can eat on the go and save time for fun sightseeing activities.

How Long Can You Leave a Cat Alone? A Guide for Responsible Cat Parents

How long can you leave a cat alone? It is different with every cat.  Some cats are super-independent and like to be alone for most of the time, while others move from room to room wherever you go, following you like a shadow.
Also remember that it’s not the same if you’re leaving your four-pawed friend alone overnight, for a few days, or for a week or even more. You’ll need to make different arrangements and preparations dependable on how long you plan to leave your cat alone.

Things You Should Be Doing Every Day To Protect Yourself From Injury

It can be all too easy to suffer from injury these days; one day you’re in the gym pumping iron and the next, you’ve blacked out from using a weight too heavy with improper form. Or maybe you were running on little sleep while driving your car and got into an accident. Things can change in a matter of moments! Below are just a few things you can do to make sure you’re protecting yourself from injury every day. Take a look and start incorporating some of the tips into your life.

Getting Plenty Of Sleep
Sleep is key to our health and well-being. When we’re well-rested, we’re able to focus better, eat better, and enjoy life more in general. Without enough sleep, you might find that you feel hungrier, as your ghrelin levels are increased, which in turn can lead to things like obesity. Not only that, driving while suffering from a lack of sleep can be just as bad as driving while drunk. Seriously. If you’re tired, you should avoid driving at all costs or you risk a serious injury, not to mention losing your life or being responsible for another one.

Eating Enough Food
If you survive on nothing but caffeine all day long, your body is going to be full of adrenaline. This will make you more stressed, and in turn your cortisol levels will increase, which have been linked with an unhealthy amount of excess fat in the body. When you’re stressed or even shaky from not eating enough food, you might find that you struggle to make good decisions, or that you can’t pay as much attention. In turn, this can lead to injury. Make sure you eat well!


Avoiding Drugs And Alcohol
Drugs and alcohol are a huge danger to people these days. An excess of alcohol can mean losing all coordination, falling, and blacking out. Different drugs can do different things, but they all impair your ability to make rational decisions. Hupy and Abraham's personal injury lawyers might be able to help you if you hurt yourself while under the influence, but you may not be able to undo the damage you’ve done if it’s serious.

Why is My Hair Falling Out? Triggers of Female Hair Loss


Each morning a woman will find a few hairs on her pillow, and that’s completely natural. According to the American Academy of Dermatology, this is called hair shedding and, on average, a person will ‘shed’ anywhere from 50 to 100 hairs in a day. However, when the numbers become much higher than that and you actually notice that your hair is thinning in volume or even have patches with no hair, that is cause for concern.

When not to worry excessively

According to the same article, excessive shedding can occur as an aftermath of numerous situations ranging from giving birth, undergoing surgery, during illness recovery, loss of 20 or more pounds or after you’ve stopped taking birth control pills (if you were on them). The shedding in those cases can be a little higher in volume, but there is no need to be overly concerned as the body usually takes care of things and in about six to nine months, your volume goes back to its normal state.

Cause number one

As Women’s Health Concern points out, women can experience major hair loss and even a lack of growth of new hairs during menopause. In some cases, women lose hair evenly, in the sense that the overall volume is not as high as before menopause, while in the worst case scenario they notice bald patches, particularly “at the crown of the head, the sides or more general hair thinning all over the head”. The worrying element is that this is simply something that comes with age, and even though estrogen, which dips during menopause, is there to help hair growth, baldness and major hair loss can still occur. The good news is that there are options for stopping or at least slowing down the hair loss process such as a change in diet, usage of strengthening hair products – specialized shampoos, as well as undergoing procedures such as a safe hair rejuvenation. Age is definitely a factor, and so is a potential hormonal imbalance that occurs in the pre and menopausal stage, but if you can’t stop hair loss altogether, you can at least take steps to keep it at bay for an extended period of time.

We all take breathing for granted so often, but it is such an important system in our body. After all, if we weren’t able to breathe properly for whatever reason, it would drastically damage our health, and it could have catastrophic consequences. So, as you can tell, it is really important that you do everything that you can to keep your respiratory system in good health.

If you ask most people how to improve their breathing and respiratory system, they might say that it’s all about keeping the lungs healthy. And that’s true, but some people aren’t too sure how to do that. Don’t panic if you haven’t got a clue, here are some top tips for healthier lung that will help you breathe easier.

Stay Away From Dangerous Materials

If you take a look at the website for the NBA Law Firm's mesothelioma attorneys, you will see that asbestos is a cause of some very serious lung and respiratory diseases. So, it’s really important that you try to stay well away from it and any other potentially dangerous materials. If you currently live in an old house that has asbestos in the walls, it won’t harm you until it is disturbed. If you do need to disturb it for decorating purposes, you should call an expert to come and remove the material safely for you.

Watch Your Posture

Did you know that your posture can also have an effect on your lungs? It’s true! The lungs are very soft and made out of tissues that can be easily bent and squashed. So, if you don’t make enough room for them in your chest, then they won’t be able to fill to their full potential. When you are sitting down, make sure you are sitting with a straight back as tall as possible. That way, the lungs can fill up the chest cavity, and you will be able to get enough air into the body.
