Wearing masks - How does it affect your mood?

  Wearing masks - How does it affect your mood?  ANJALI Jan 18 2022 The COVID-19 pandemic has reshaped life as we know it. Most of us stay at home, we avoid people on the street and we have changed our daily habits. School or office work or even shopping have become online which we never ever imagined. While old behaviours and habits changed, we adopted new routines. First and foremost is the habit of wearing a mask or face covering whenever we are in a public space. Masks and face coverings can prevent the wearer from transmitting the COVID-19 virus to others and also provide some protection to the wearer. To me personally, I feel that wearing a mask isn’t a restriction of our freedom. Rather, it helps us to regain freedom by reducing virus transmission and making every interaction with people around safer. It gives freedom for us to step out , attend classes, visit malls, interact with friends, travel to meet relatives and most importantly masks gives freedom from illness an...

Wearing mask - How does it affect your mood?

  Wearing mask - How does it affect your mood? AADI Jan 18 2022 Wearing masks has become an essentiallity due to the ongoing covid pandemic to ensure others and our safety. Nowadays, we can't go anywhere without a maks! A number of experiments and reports show that face masks influence the human ability to infer emotions by observing facial expressions. Human being by design, have an automatic abitity to imitate others' facial expressions of emotions. When I used to go out and play, I would smile, frown or shout in the elevator, lobby and the playground depending upon the facial expressions and emotions; but now, almost the entire face of the people whom I meet outdoors is covered with a face mask. So I am unable to gauge their emotions. Understanding emotions is crucial for social interaction. Doctors also fear that young preschoolers might have problems identifying emotions and facial expressions. During communication, various non-verbal aspects of language convey emotions su...

Wearing a mask, how does it affect your mood?

  Wearing a mask, how does it affect your mood? RISHAN Jan 18 2022 Hi there, I am back! Yep, your blogger Rishan Gadhia is back. In this pandemic which has been going on for 2 crazy lockdown years, for our safety, we wear masks and nowadays its spread over shops, online websites and all that comes to our mind when we go out is that our mask should be worn and asper me wearing such masks is irritating. What do you say? Let's discuss about it! So, a mask's comfort depends on the protection layers and the material it is made up of, the most common type of material used to make a mask is cotton as it is comfortable and soft. Cotton is used along with rubber(any elastic material) to make a mask that we can wear. However although we have a soft and comfortable mask, the stress and irritation which develops from inside makes it uncomfortable to breathe and the carbon dioxide and water vapor causes warmth and sweat that causes irritation. Even though we might not feel it but the irrita...

unbelievable event you witnessed true or imaginative.

  unbelievable event you witnessed true or imaginative. MEGAN Jan 05 2022 My father and I had just return from the hospital and were preparing to go to bed. The phone rang around 1:00 a.m., while Dad had been in the shower. Grandma wasn't going to make it through the night, according to the hospital. I rang my brother (poor guy, he had a 2 hour drive and had just gotten home too). We got Dad dressed (he'd had a stroke) and drove out. Grandma's organs went into decline, and we gathered around her bed. There was a clock above her, and at 3:20 a.m., I saw a white ball emerge from her shoulder area and halt as I stood there watching it. I was unable to move. It was speaking to me, yet It wasn't me, but it was something deep within me. A feeling of love and joy flooded over me; it was the greatest sensation I'd ever had in my life. It lasted approximately ten minutes, and I knew everything was fine. I then turned to stare at my grandmother as she exhaled her last breath ...

So basically today I'll be telling you 5 ways to help homeless people - 1) We can organize a coat drive . Many homeless don't have coat and blankets to protect them from the harsh weather .

A small step - How can we help homeless people in our community?

  A small step - How can we help homeless people in our community? VRINDA SHAH Jan 10 2022 We can’t imagine surviving our lives in unimaginable conditions on roads and streets, wanting everything to be lavish. Yet, there is a large population which has to survive and overcome through such unbearable conditions. Can anyone survive if there is no place for them to sit down or fall asleep or to store their belongings? These scenarios are unimaginable for several people, except for the homeless people, these scenarios are a part of their daily lives. Some people loathe the poverty-stricken individuals of our society. In lieu of helping them as a token of humanity, love, compassion and empathy towards them being unfortunate they show hatred and dislike. The significant quantity of individuals isn’t even conscious of the situation of homelessness in that is happening in most of the main cities of the world. In contrast, a portion is turning a blind eye to the subject, knowing the situati...

  Preparing for the Third Wave of COVID-19 DHRUV Jan 08 2022 Hello everyone! We all can say we are bored with the pandemic situation now, right! We saw two waves of COVID-19, with so many variants like the Omicron and Delta. The third wave of COVID-19 is speculated to arrive by the end of January. The 3rd Wave will have more cases of Omicron. My family and I are preparing for the third wave by following a few precautions. 1. Get both doses of the vaccine if you are eligible The vaccine will develop antibodies that are useful for recovery and better immune system against COVID-19 2. Wear a mask whenever you go out A mask will block impurities from entering your nose and mouth. Although many think it's uncomfortable, it's the need of the hour. 3. Stay Indoors and Avoid Crowded Places Staying indoors means less exposure, and whenever you need to move out don't forget to keep at least a meter distance from others. 4. Eating a Healthy Diet Eating a healthy diet is really necessa...

How plants survive during winters?

  How plants survive during winters? K Ayush Jan 08 2022 Hi everyone, my topic for today is something to think about. All of us are familiar with plant kingdom but this is much more than that. Today I am talking about plants' survival during winters. It's difficult for plants to survive during winters as days are shorter and there is less sunlight. The cold temperature slows down their growth as the temperature drops below zero degrees, freezes the water, and makes it inaccessible to plants. Such conditions are sure to kill all plants if they do not have techniques for survival. Some plants enter a resting stage. Only perennial plants show new growth every year. This is why they are called perennial as they grow well irrespective of the climatic conditions. However, the part of each of these plants above the ground dies during the winter months. The underground parts of these plants ensure that they do not die and this way perennial plants survive till the spring season. One of...
