achievements of women past, present and future.
As women all over the world are celebrating their day, bebeakinboade.com
presents to you 10 life Saving Tips Every Woman Should Know.
between life and death. Every woman should know how to protect herself
effectively against attackers, rapists, or anyone else trying to do you harm.
All you have to do is S.I.N.G. If you’ve ever seen the film Miss Congeniality,
you may know what I’m talking about. S.I.N.G. stands for Solar Plexus, Instep,
Nose, and Groin. Targeting any of these sensitive spots on the body will help
hurt and eventually distract your attacker, giving you time to run away.
2. DEALING WITH CRAMPS: It’s that time of the month again and what presents do
we get besides bloating and crankiness? Woman’s worst enemy: cramps. Luckily,
there’s a few ways that us girls can cope with this pain, some things to try
are a heating pad or hot water bottle on your stomach to help relax the
muscles.
3. ACCESSORIES: The number one rule for accessories that every woman should
know is that less is more. You can wear statement earrings or a statement
necklace, but not both. Your accessories should compliment the outfit and the
colour scheme of the outfit.
4. CHANGING YOUR OWN TIRE: Okay ladies, we can do this! It’s actually a very
simple process. First of all and probably most obvious; make sure that your
parking break is on and that the car will not roll.
Now, raise the jack so it is supporting the car. Remove the hubcap and unscrew
and remove the lug nuts doing one then the one opposite of it until all are
removed. Now you can remove the flat tire. Put the new tire onto the wheel
studs with the air valve facing out. After that you can replace the lug nuts in
the same pattern that you took them off (make sure they’re tight!). Put the
hubcap back on and lower the jack. You’re finished!
5. FINDING THE RIGHT BRA SIZE: Did you know that more than 50% of women wear
the wrong bra size? It’s very easy to find your right size. To start, wear a
comfortable bra without padding. Take the measuring tape and measure around
your chest right underneath your breasts. This measurement is your band size
(if it’s an odd number then add 1″). Next, measure around your breasts at
the fullest part. Take that number and subtract it from your band size. Every
inch is a cup.
cancer, but it also helps anti-aging. Applying sunscreen every single day is
what will help you have the beautiful young skin you want, forever. Doctors
recommend wearing sunscreen every single day, even if it’s not so sunny out.
Those nasty UV rays still get through, rain or shine.
7. STAYING SAFE ONLINE: Today, in the age of Facebook and Twitter and tons of
other dating sites, it’s very easy to slip up and give away some precious
information. Posting information, such as your address, where you are, or when
you aren’t going to be home, can be remarkably dangerous. Be smart about what
you say and what details you give on the web. Make your web page private and so
only people you know can see what you post. If it’s not private always ask
yourself, would I tell this to a complete stranger?
8. CPR: Be a hero, know your CPR. To start, check the person for breathing, by
tilting their head back. If there is no breathing then you start mouth-to-mouth
resuscitation. Plug their nose and cover their mouth with yours and breath 2
breaths into them, each breath being about 1 second long. Now look for
responsiveness; breathing, coughing, or moving should occur, if not, start
chest compressions. Place your hands in the middle of the person’s nipples and
pump your hands up and down 1 ½ inches to 2 inches with each pump being less
than 1 second. Do this 30 times. Repeat both steps until help arrives.
9: PREVENTING HEART DISEASE: Heart disease is the number one killer of woman in
the world. Luckily there are many ways to prevent it. Tobacco and stress
contribute massively to heart disease so try your best to stay smoke-free and
de-stressed. Having a good diet will help too, you are more likely to have
heart disease if you have high blood pressure, high blood cholesterol, or are
obese.
10: SELF BREAST EXAM: Spotting breast cancer early on can save your life. You
always do a self-breast exam lying down. When checking your right breast, place
your right palm under your head and use the left hand to check. Use the pads of
your three middle fingers and go in a circle motion overlapping to check for
bumps. You’ll need to use different types of pressure; light for the tissue
closest to the skin, a mild pressure for deeper and firm pressure to feel the
tissue closet to the chest and ribs. To make sure you check the whole breast,
go in a line down the breast then a line right next to that line and so on.
Repeat on right side. Call your doctor immediately if you find anything.
