Need to find some optimism? Rather than focusing on all the ways you may be falling short, or where you went wrong over the course of a day, try to notice your unique personal strengths and how you use them. Maybe it's a hidden talent, area of expertise, or special personality trait. thriveglobal.com

Recent studies estimate that we use an astounding 129 billion face masks globally every month. That's 3 million a minute. Most of them are disposable face masks made from plastic microfibers. With increasing reports on inappropriate disposal of masks, it is urgent to recognize this potential environmental threat and prevent it from becoming the next plastic problem. Disposable masks are plastic products and cannot be readily biodegraded but may fragment into smaller plastic particles called micro- and nanoplastics that are widespread and dangerous in ecosystems. The enormous production of disposable masks is on a similar scale to plastic bottles, which is estimated to be 43 billion per month. But unlike plastic bottles, (of which app. 25% are recycled), there is no official guidance on mask recycling, making it more likely to be disposed of as solid waste. Disposable masks may accumulate and release harmful chemical and biological substances, such as bisphenol A, heavy metals, as well as pathogenic micro-organisms. These may pose indirect adverse impacts on plants, animals and humans. If you have to wear a mask because of mandates, make it a cotton one. dailymail.co.uk

Another way to sneak in exercise during the day: Take calls standing up. If you spend a lot of time on the phone at work, use that time to get off your rump and stretch your legs. The person on the other line won't have a clue about what you're doing! onegreenplanet.org

What conditions do chiropractors treat? This is a misleading question since chiropractic is not a specific treatment for any condition. Instead, rather than treating a specific disease or condition, chiropractic focuses on the inherent ability of the human body to heal itself. Your miraculous human body is constantly changing and adapting. Throughout your life, virtually all the cells of the body are in a continual state of growth. When old cells are worn away, they die and are replaced by brand new ones. Chiropractors respect the knowledge that it is the body that does the healing and that the job of the doctor is to help the patient by removing barriers (vertebral subluxations) to healing. As long as the brain and nervous system are able to communicate with the body without any interference, then the body can function at a higher level. selfgrowth.com

If you're looking to boost your immunity naturally, just use a teaspoon of coconut oil a day. You can stir it in coffee, which many people refer to as bulletproof coffee, or use it in any of your dishes like oatmeal, soups, smoothies, stews, or even make dessert and cook your veggies in it. You can also use coconut oil on your skin, which is our largest organ. Coconut may act as a natural "shield" for viruses and bacteria in the environment, and as a bonus, you'll smell amazing! onegreenplanet.org
