Why do we get Goose Bumps?

Tidbits - Learning Hat with a Little Humor


Why do we get Goose Bumps?

Gooseflesh, chicken skin, or cutis anserina, the technical name for goose bumps, starts with a stimulus like cold, fright, or excitement that triggers an involuntary nervous system reaction.
Tiny muscles in your skin contract, rise above the skin, and make hair follicles stand at attention.
In humans,
 goose bumps are nothing more than physical proof that the nervous system is responding to the world around it, as it should.
Animals experience a similar phenomenon when they bristle, but they make good use of the big-hair effect.
If a cat's really chilly, its fur will stand on end, causing the elevated hairs to trap a greater amount of air close to its warm body.  Or, if it's confronted by a foe, it will look bigger and more intimidating.
We humans just look, well, like plucked chickens.;-)

Inspiration Tidbits

Life is an Opportunity!
In times of doubt or stress, I find myself reaching for some of my favorite quotes or poems.

Sitting quietly and reading one or more of these inspirational writings will often stir in me the strength to tackle the issue or issues at hand.

I am sharing ​Life is an Opportunity which is a poem amongst my many favorites
"Life is an opportunity, benefit from it.
Life is beauty, admire it
Life is a dream, realize it.
Life is a challenge, meet it.
Life is a duty, complete it.
Life is a game, play it.
Life is a promise, fulfill it.
Life is sorrow, overcome it.
Life is a song, sing it.
Life is a struggle, accept it.
Life is a tragedy, confront it.
Life is an adventure, dare it.
Life is luck, make it.
Life is too precious, do not destroy it.
Life is life, fight for it."~ Mother Teresa
"As this is your Life, be grateful for it, share it, respect it, grow with it, love it and be yourself."

Wooden Artwork Storage Frames

​
With the school year about mid-way done, children have probably brought home several of their many art projects. 
A good way to display and store these many treasures is with a
 storage frame.
Children often make unique art projects for holidays and other special events.
The great thing about these storage frames is that your child’s art can be on display all year long with the flexibility of changing at a whim with the other art project being stored in the frame.

These frames are specially sized to hold the standard sizes of artwork created at school or home.  Each polystyrene-covered wooden frame also includes a 3/4" deep compartment behind the picture to store approx. 50 more pictures.
Frame Measures 14.5" x 11.5" x 1 3/4" and  fits 9" x 12" Artwork.

Inspire your child by giving their artwork that special attention it deserves with these
Easy Change Artwork Frames.

2-Minutes Blood Pressure Lowering Exercise

​Wellness Tidbits


Need to lower your Blood Pressure?
​Try this 2-Minute Blood Pressure Lowering Exercise 

​Simply squeeze a rubber ball. It seems to help—a lot, says Men's Health magazine author Steven Stiefel. According to a study in the European Journal of Applied Physiology, people performing handgrip exercises for 8 weeks lowered their systolic blood pressure by 15 points and their diastolic pressure by five.

"The blood-pressure response to grip training is greater than to aerobic exercise," says lead author Maureen MacDonald, Ph.D. All it takes is 2 minutes of squeezing, four times a day.

It can also help reduce your stress which in return helps lower your blood pressure.  While squeezing these small rubber shapes,  take deep breaths and concentrate on each breath.

​It's amazing!  While squeezing this small rubber shape and concentrating on each breath, there is very little room for any other thoughts to enter your mind!
Try several shapes and take time to bring out your inner child, just have fun and smile all while acquiring some emotional and physical health benefits.  A great way to manage your stress!
