Lose weight while sleeping
Let's talk about a fun way to lose weight and something that might not help with that goal. Okay, first things first. To boost your metabolism (which is like your body's fat-burning machine), you need to eat certain foods. You know those lucky people who can eat anything and not gain weight? Well, it turns out their secret might be a butterfly-shaped gland in their neck called the thyroid. This gland sends out hormones that control how well your body burns calories. So, to make your metabolism happy, you should eat foods rich in iodine, zinc, and selenium. Some examples are iodized salt, seaweed, meat, shellfish, and Brazil nuts.

When the sun dies
Hey there! Did you know that the Sun is the star in the middle of our Solar System? It's like a big ball of hot plasma that's heated up by nuclear fusion reactions in its core. The Sun gives off a lot of energy in the form of light, ultraviolet, and infrared radiation. This energy is super important for life on Earth! The Sun is really big - it's about 109 times bigger than Earth! And it's really heavy too - about 330,000 times heavier than Earth. Most of the Sun is made up of hydrogen, which is a gas, and the rest is mostly helium. There are also some other elements like oxygen, carbon, neon, and iron in there too.

Is it normal, self-talk?
Intrapersonal communication is when you talk to yourself or have conversations in your head. For example, when you tell yourself that you'll do better next time after making a mistake or when you imagine talking to your boss because you want to leave work early. It's like sending a message to yourself and receiving it at the same time. Some people think that intrapersonal communication only happens in your mind, but it can also happen when you write a diary or make a list for yourself. When you talk to yourself, you can use words or just imagine things. Sometimes, you might have a conversation with different voices in your head. Intrapersonal communication can help you plan, solve problems, think, and dream.

Things that only depressed people will know
Depression is when someone feels really sad and doesn't want to do anything. It's a big problem because it affects a lot of people, like 280 million all over the world. When someone is depressed, it changes the way they think, act, and feel. They might not want to do things that they used to enjoy, and they might feel really unmotivated. Sometimes, feeling sad is normal, like when someone loses someone they love. But depression is different because it can last a long time and make someone feel hopeless. It can also make it hard to think clearly and make it hard to sleep or eat. Sometimes, people who are depressed might even think about hurting themselves.

Bad habits that ruin your brain
Your brain is like the boss of your body. It helps you do everything from seeing to feeling to thinking. It's located in your head and is the most complicated part of your body. In fact, there are billions of tiny cells called neurons in your brain that help it work. These neurons talk to each other using special fibers called axons. It's like a big game of telephone! The brain sends messages to different parts of your body using these axons.

Change your life step by step
Do you ever feel like there's a big difference between who you are and who you want to be? Maybe you want to exercise more, eat healthier, learn a new language, write a book, read more, or just spend less time on the internet. But it can be hard to make these changes and stick to them. Sometimes it feels like you have to become a completely different person to achieve your goals. You might try really hard for a while, but then you slip back into your old habits. It's frustrating and can make you feel like a failure. But it's not all your fault! Your brain is like a jungle, and making changes is like hacking your way through it. It takes a lot of energy and effort to create new paths in your brain. But the more you do something, the easier it gets. Eventually, it becomes a habit and you don't even have to think about it anymore. So don't give up! Keep working on your goals and creating new paths in your brain. It might be hard at first, but it will get easier over time.
