But in general, you will want to have the logistics and menu nailed down at least a few days out in advance. The budget that you have for your party will ultimately dictate the direction of the type of food that you will be providing. Consistency is key when it comes to getting the theming right for your ultimate winter holiday bash. Sleep quality matters, so if you don’t feel well-rested when waking up, perhaps it’s time to practice some good sleep habits.ĭo you want to go for a whimsical out of this world Christmas theme and transport guests to another world? Or do you want to go elegant and posh and make it more of a black-tie affair? Whatever direction you decide to go in, make sure to stick to that theme and ensure that all your decorations and decision making in general support it. But if you have trouble sleeping, you can experience health issues. People spend roughly one-third of their lives sleeping or napping. If you experience back pain, consider placing a pillow under your knees, so you can align the natural curve of your spine. Sleeping in a starfish position may induce lower back pain, which interferes with your normal sleep. According to studies, only 5% of people sleep in this position. Starfish is when you lie on your back and sleep with your arms lifted up near your head. Lying on your back with your arms tight to your body is actually a good sleeping position, as it helps maintain your spine in a straight line. Studies have shown that people who sleep like this may be quieter and more relaxed. It’s when you sleep with your arms down and very close to your body.
This is a kind of a weird sleeping position, but very common. Understanding who you are and where your identity lies will set the tone of how you will carry yourself. Start small, take those baby steps to embracing who you truly are the people around you can only do so much to encourage or kick you off your high horse when necessary. Notice how I didn't even say love yourself yet. But you can start by simply respecting yourself in the daily life you live.
Why do we keep doing this? Shouldn't we be tired of that mindset? Yes, it is much easier said than done to not nitpick or gloat over what you see. You start picking at every comparable aspect of your life and tell yourself how much better yours is. Then you find yourself smugly thinking that your life isn't as bad as theirs and your hurt ego is slowly inflated. Just when you thought the day couldn't get worse, your housemate comes home and exasperatedly complains about her day for what seems like hours. Then your friend snaps at you out of nowhere and you're just confused.You come home to the food you were saving the entire day, only to find it eaten. You miss the bus and you end up late to your class. We are "the Fairest of them All".Or picture this: You are having a rough day at school. So if this hypothesis had been true, the Northern Europeans, and in particular the Norwegians, would STILL have been at least fairly dark, but the OPPOSITE is the case. In fact, in terms of fairness, only the Swedes and Finns are fairer, and only by a tiny margin. The Norwegians never stopped eating fatty fish… but they have always, from pre-historical times to present day, been fair. Norwegian farmers are even to this day also hunters, fishermen and gatherers. It is made up of mainly mountains and fjords, and only 3% of the land is even suitable for farming. And the ones who kept being hunter-gatherers the longest, and who never stopped eating plenty of fatty fish, like the Northern Europeans, became "fairest of them all". First of all, not all Europeans became farmers at the same time, and some even never really became farmers at all… but they ALL became fair. There are a few problematic facts in relation to this hypothesis though. Why? Because we went from eating a lot of fatty fish to becoming farmers, and since we then no longer got all the vitamin D we needed to survive, only the fairest amongst us survived, and in the end we were all white. The official claim is that we had dark skin, but became fair-skinned only recently.
