Little Adjustments
Youth is fleeting, time is dwindling, and our bodies aren’t built to last forever. I have come to that realization now at the ripe young age of 27. With all the work that must be done to maintain a positive life, and all the activities that require functional movement and your brain to be firing on all cylinders; we can’t afford to not be well rested and rejuvenated ready to conquer the day every single day.

Are Kn95 Maks Effective Against Coronavirus?
Experts suggest that you consider changing your face mask options, especially if you're still using cloth masks. This is because of the Omicron Coronavirus variant. The mask can be used as a three-ply surgical or disposable mask. It can be worn with a cloth, but not alone. An N95 or KN95 mask can be purchased for a few dollars. These masks are more comfortable and certain materials such as polypropylene fibers act as electrostatic and mechanical barriers to reduce particles entering your nose or mouth. The mask should be perfectly fitted to your face in order for it to work.

Siestas
I come from Latin America, a place where naps are sacred and a very common activity done around the sixth hour of the day. It’s because of that we call it siesta. I remember my grandfather after lunch, going directly from the table, laying on the couch, never missing a day to rest for about fifteen minutes before going back to his little woodshop. When you are little and full of energy, it’s hard to understand why you would sleep in the middle of the day. But at that time I never needed to wake up with the sunrise. Peeking from the yard, I used to watch him sleep on that paisley patterned couch. It was possible to see it through the entry door. Always guessing his reasons for sleeping at noon: was it because he was from another time? Was it because of his beliefs? Or because of tiredness? Now I know that more than answering any of those questions, napping was one of a statement, a means to maintain control over his life, and to set the speed and quality of his labour.
