NURSES FOREVER
In recent times, it is a visible trend that people are looking for alternatives to conventional medicine. There are many reasons for it. Some are just looking for a second opinion or a new perspective to take a look at illnesses. Others are denying the significance of conventional medicine and switching fully from western medicine to alternative medicine. Both extreme views aside, one thing is true about alternative medicine, especially essential oils – they work like a charm!

Will Life Return to Normal?
In February of 2020, I hosted a Super Bowl Party, chaperoning a van load of teenagers. While most of them chatted and hung out in the arcade of Incredible Pizza, dropping quarters in video games and winning tickets, I sipped on Sprite, munched on pizza and watched my beloved Kansas City Chiefs win the Super Bowl. Although Covid-19 had arrived in the United States, I in no way anticipated a national quarantine. And to even consider a global shutdown bordered on insanity. But, here we are, almost a year later, and restrictions continue to throttle the economy and hamper the public's ability to return to a semblance of normalcy. Is "normal" life a thing of the past?

The Power Of Music
MUSIC IS POWERFUL Ever since I was young, I had a pretty good idea of what I wanted to be. I found the instrument that was meant for me at the age of ten. I remember seeing a harp for the first time, and looking at my mom to tell her, “ Mom I want to learn how to play that.” Soon after that,I ended up getting a harp and starting music lessons. It was then that my passion for music took off, and I starting becoming more involved in the work of music. Going into high school I knew that I wanted to play music for myself and others for as long as I am physically able. All throughout high school, I was given opportunities to see firsthand how powerful and beneficial music is for happiness and healing. I got to see the health and moods of the people I performed for change for the better when I played for them. I saw how the moods of the people in the nursing homes went from depressed and grumpy to happy and smiling once I had finished my performance. I saw how the people in the hospitals appreciated the music that I played for them. Seeing the smiling hospital workers and patients was a huge reminder of why I play music. Music can help promote the healing of the mind and body and can turn a terrible day into a great into a better one. The power of music is incredible and so useful and important in our society.

How I lost my belly without a single abdominal workout?
From my childhood until my early 20ies, my mom always said that I was the thinnest one. Probably due to the fact that I was an avid long length chewer. We used to have big family lunch meals every day and this was an event for me as a kid. Growing up, since I got some pocket money, I started to go into junk food, but even this, was not enough to get me pounds. Mainly because I was also a great walker.
