Everyone wants to have a healthy mind and body. I want it too and have some ideas and examples to make dreams of millions come true.
How would you cope without modern gadgets? What would you do if you didn't have your mobile phone, your MP3 player, or your games console? Believe it or not, you might be better off.
For example when you make the same motion again and again in a confined space, repeated arm motions can cause strain to your shoulder. Secondly Earphones play the music directly into your ear canal. High volume can cause hearing loss. Third thing is that too much texting can cause thumb arthritis. This can lead to restriction of movement, swelling, and pain. After that I want to tell you that mobile phone is full of bacteria. When you press it against your face and ear, it can lead to skin problems such as acne, skin infections and rashes. Finally I want to tell that computers are useful tools for research and entertainment. However, staring at a computer screen for an extended period time can cause eye strain. Some of the symptoms include blurred vision, dry eyes and a difficulty distinguishing between colors. Be careful and try to save yourself rom that. For example you can take frequent breaks, set the volume.
Today you can buy medicines in every shop, but a lot of people prefer home remedies. For example:
GARLIC
GARLIC
If you have a cold or the flu, you can add chopped garlic to hot water with a little honey and lemon and make some tea.
VINEGAR
It's great for minor cuts or itchy rashes. Also you could try adding one cup of white vinegar to a cool bath. This will soothe your skin.
HONEY
Like garlic, honey helps destroy bacteria. If you have a cut or a graze, just put a little honey on it and cover it with a plaster. It might help you with insomnia, too. Drinking a glass of warm milk with some honey in it can help you sleep.

TEA
During the headache you can Boil some water and make yourself a nice cup of tea! The caffeine in the tea will open up the constricted blood vessels that cause a headache.
BAKING SODA
If you have smelly feet, sprinkle some baking soda in your shoes and have odour-free feet all day long. Baking soda is a great natural anti- perspirant.
GINGER
When you have an upset stomach,you could try chewing a piece of ginger. You can also do this before a journey if you suffer from travel sickness Ginger may also help you if you have bad breath.

Next I want to tell about dangerous animals in Australia.
Spiders
Australia has some of the most dangerous spiders in the world. The dark-coloured funnel- web spider is one of the most poisonous. Its teeth are so strong that it can even bite through a shoe! If one bites you, you need anti-venin very quickly. Another scary spider is the redback with the red stripe on its back. It hides in backyards and sometimes homes, Redback spider lives all over Australia and it can give a very nasty bite causing horrible pain.
Sea creatures
Watch out for Australia's many dangerous sea creatures. Especially the box jellyfish. It's almost invisible to swimmers and has caused more deaths than snakes, sharks and crocodiles put together. Each of its 3-metre-long tentacles has 500,000 needles for injecting venom into victims. Although it's very small, the blue- ringed octopus is also deadly! This pretty octopus lives in rock pools and has enough venom to kill 10 men. Watch out for the 6-metre- long salt- water crocodile, too. They can go 240 km inland or out into the ocean and attack anything that moves, even sharks!

Snakes
The ten most poisonous snakes in the world all live in Australia! The inland taipan is the most dangerous in the world and its venom is 50 times stronger than an Indian Cobra's. Th eastern brown snake is a long (up to 1.8 metres!), fast-moving snake and the second most dangerous in the world.
Let’s continue with information about phobias.
I believe that those ideas could help you. Health of mind and body are important. Protect yourself……...

After that I want to tell about French Spider man
While no one is looking, Frenchman Alain Robert jumps up an office building and starts to climb the wall. He hangs from balconies, crawls along ledges and grips the edges of the glass and concrete. He is using only his bare hands! Alain has climbed over 85 of the tallest structures in the world, including the Eiffel Tower, the Empire State Building and the Petronas Twin Towers in Malaysia. One of his first climbs was at the age of twelve. Also Alain suffers from vertigo he feels dizzy when he is up high! He has fallen seven times, suffering dozens of broken bones, which has left him partly disabled. Apart from raising awareness about world issues such as climate change, Alain wants people to see their environment differently. What he does is sometimes illegal, but most of the time he just gets a fine. The police say he can't climb public buildings, but the only thing that stops this daredevil is rain! When it's wet, Alain can't grip the slippery surfaces. In 2002, he got stuck on the 35th floor of London's Canary Wharf Tower when it started to rain. He is just an ordinary man living a very dangerous life! You can see videos of Alain in action on YouTube.
Let’s continue with information about phobias.
People can have either common phobias, like a fear of insects, needles and the dark, or some very strange ones indeed! Vicki Larrieux's fear of vegetables, for example - lachanophobia - makes a trip to the supermarket a nightmare. There are many other cases of odd phobias such as ablutophobia (fear of washing), anthophobia (fear of flowers), catoptrophobia (fear of mirrors) and even obophobia. (the fear of phobias themselves) Some of these fears might sound ridiculous to you, but to a person who suffers from them, they are very real.
our brain sends signals to pump adrenalin around our body. Our heart beats faster, our skin sweats to keep us cool and our muscles tense so that we are ready to escape the danger. When someone suffers from a phobia however, the danger is mostly in their minds. Maybe someone who i afraid of bees, for instance, once got badly stung by a bee. Their brain now remembers the experience and triggers a fear reaction every time they see a bee, or sometimes even just a photo of a bee. So what's the solution for someone who has phobia? It's much better for the person to try to face their fear . A person who is afraid of dogs, for example, could start by looking at a photo of a dog. In time, the phobia will disappear for good.
Before the final part I want to tell you about the sleep. That is really important for teenagers.
When we sleep, our body temperature drops, our heart rate and other bodily functions slow down, but our brains stay very active. What are the different stages? There are four different stages of sleep that repeat every 90 to 110 minutes. Stages N1 and N2 are light sleep and we can easily wake up. In stage N3, we sleep more deeply and it's harder to wake up. The last stage is REM sleep. Our eyes move around our brain is very active, and we have a lot of dreams. Why do we need sleep? While we sleep, our brain sorts through information, replaces chemicals, repairs cells, and solves problems. Lack of sleep seriously affects our mind and body. When we don't rest enough. we may feel grumpy, forgetful and unable to concentrate. Lack of sleep can also affect our immune system. Over a long time, it may cause depression and personality changes and eventually even shorten our life. How much sleep do we need? It's different for everyone, but on average, babies need 16 to 18 hours of sleep, teenagers about 9 and adults about 7 to 8.
Finally I want to tell about the main Russian tradition - Banya.
People have always enjoyed bathing, not only as a way to keep clean but also to relax. The ancient Greeks and Romans built elaborate and expensive bathhouses in their cities all over the world. Russian people enjoy bathing and the banya, or steam bath, is a very old and popular tradition in Russian culture. Even today, almost every village and town in Russia has its own banya. People usually have at least three rooms; an entrance, a washing room, and a steam room. The steam room is called the parilka. It has rows of benches, a stove with very hot stones in it, and large buckets of water. Bathers take a ladle of hot water and pour it on the stones,filling the room with hot, dry steam. Bathers immediately begin to sweat and relax as the steam opens up the pores in their skin. Russian people often hit themselves with bunches of dried branches and leaves from white birch to improve blood circulation. They also wear special hats to protect their head from intense heat. The banya helps remove toxins from the body, relieves stress, and may even prevent and heal a number of illnesses.
