You don’t need to be in school to improve your education. Check out Coursera!

One of the biggest issues that I continue to see pop up for people, especially within the young adult generation[s], is the problem of being at a loss for readily available, and seemingly ‘affordable’ educational sources, information, and courses. I recently reblogged a post with a brilliant list of 500 FREE online courses from top universities, which was pretty popular. Then I received a suggestion from a lovely follower of mine to check out Courseera, as I might be interested. So, in addition to the previous online free courses post, I present you with yet another amazing and FREE resource for personal mind expansion. Courseera offers dozens of free online courses from various universities such as Princeton, Stanford, University of Michigan, and University of Pennsylvania.

What is your acne telling you?

1 & 2: Digestive System — Eat less processed or junk food, reduce the amount of fat in your diet, step up water intake and opt for cooling things like cucumbers.

3: Liver — Cut out the alcohol, greasy food and dairy. This is the zone where food allergies also show up first, so take a look at your ingredients. Besides all this, do 30 minutes of light exercise every day and get adequate sleep so your liver can rest.

4 & 5: Kidneys — Anything around the eyes (including dark circles) point to dehydration. Drink up!

6: Heart — Check your blood pressure (mine was slightly high) and Vitamin B levels. Decrease the intake of spicy or pungent food, cut down on meat and get more fresh air. Besides this, look into ways to lower cholesterol, like replacing “bad fats” with “good fats” such as Omegas 3 and 6 found in nuts, avocados, fish and flax seed. Also, since this area is chock-full of dilated pores, check that your makeup is not past its expiry date or is skin-clogging.

7 & 8: Kidneys — Again, drink up! And cut down on aerated drinks, coffee and alcohol as these will cause further dehydration.

Zone 9 & 10: Respiratory system — Do you smoke? Have allergies? This is your problem area for both. If neither of these is the issue, don’t let your body overheat, eat more cooling foods, cut down on sugar and get more fresh air. Also keep the body more alkaline by avoiding foods that make the body acidic (meat, dairy, alcohol, caffeine, sugar) and adding more alkalizing foods like green veggies and wheatgrass juice. Another thing that most of forget – dirty cell phones and pillow cases are two of the top acne culprits and this area is what they affect the most!

Zone 11 & 12: Hormones — This is the signature zone for stress and hormonal changes. And while both are sometimes unavoidable, you can decrease their effect by getting adequate sleep, drinking enough water, eating leafy veggies and keeping skin scrupulously clean. Another interesting point: breakouts in this area indicate when you are ovulating (and on which side).

Zone 13: Stomach — Step up the fibre intake, reduce the toxin overload and drink herbal teas to help with digestion.

14: Illness — Zits here can be a sign that your body is fighting bacteria to avoid illness. Give it a break, take a yoga class, take a nap, take time to breathe deeply, drink plenty of water and know that everything always works out!

So the next time you break out or notice dark under-eye circles, look to your face map: your skin is probably trying to communicate on behalf of the internal organs. However, do remember that, as with all medical issues, it is always best to see your doctor or dermotologist for a proper prognosis. This is just a general guide to head you off in the right investigative direction – just becuase you break out between the brows doesn’t always mean you have a bad liver!

I made a Tumblr version of Go the Fuck to Sleep

this is for all of us who can never manage to get to bed at a decent hour

Lyrics:

Even the Whovians have all gone to bed
Clutching their sonic screwdrivers in a rest so deep
Yes, I know the new season is here,
But please - Go the fuck to sleep.

Even the Supernatural fandom have laid their weary heads to rest
They have counted their demon-sheep
I’ll let you watch one more episode if you swear
You’ll go the fuck to sleep.

Even the weeaboos are in their slumber
Yes, the fan artists, the cosplayers, and the creeps
“Kawaii desu,” they whisper, as they hit the bed
Lie the fuck down, my darling, and sleep.

Even the homestucks dream of Derse and Prospit
In their slumber they do not make a peep
It’s 4:13 AM no there’s not going to be an update
Jesus Christ, what the fuck? Go to sleep.

Even the Sherlockians roll around in bed muttering about season 3
In their minds’ all they see is Sherlock’s big leap
No you can’t go make another batshit text post
You know where you can go? The fuck to sleep.

Even the Poke-fanatics lie in their beds
In their dreams on a Fearow they do soar and sweep
Take an example from Snorlax
For real, shut the fuck up and sleep.

And even Adventure Time is over, my dear
Time to cuddle in a big snuggly heap
How is it you can stay awake for days
But you can’t lie the fuck down and sleep?

Oh and now the shippers, the hipsters, even the nightbloggers!
Even they’ve spent all the time there is to keep
So please, PLEASE, my fellow Tumblrian
Go the fuck to sleep.

This is everything I have ever wanted and more

Completely sure that you don’t need to be male.
