15 Spectacular tricks to teach your body...


nerves in the ear get stimulated, they create a reflex in the throat 
that causes a muscle spasm, which cures the itch.
2.)  Having trouble hearing someone at a party or on the phone? 
Use your right ear it's better at picking up rapid speech. But, the left 
is better at picking up music tones.
3.)  If you need to relieve yourself BADLY, but you're not anywhere 
near a bathroom, fantasize about RELATIONS. That preoccupies your 
brain and distracts it.
4.)  Next time the doctor's going to give you an injection, COUGH as 
the needle is going in. The cough raises the level of pressure in your 
spinal canal, which limits the pain sensation as it tries to travel to 
your brain.
5.)  Clear a stuffed nose or relieve sinus pressure by pushing your 
tongue against the roof of your mouth then pressing a finger between 
your eyebrows. Repeat that for 20 seconds it causes the vomer bone 
to rock, which loosens your congestion and clears you up.
6.)  If you ate a big meal and you're feeling full as you go to sleep, 
lay on your left side. That'll keep you from suffering from acid reflux 
it keeps your stomach lower than your esophagus, which will helps 
keep stomach acid from sliding up your throat.
7.)  You can stop a toothache by rubbing ice on the back of your 
hand, on the webbed area between your thumb and index finger. 
The nerve pathways there stimulate a part of the brain that blocks 
pain signals from your mouth.
8.)  If you get all messed up on liquor, and the room starts spinning, put 
your hand on something stable. The reason: Alcohol dilutes the blood in 
the part of your ear called the cupula, which regulates balance. Putting 
your hand on something stable gives your brain another reference point, 
which will help make the world stop spinning.
9.)  Stop a nose bleed by putting some cotton on your upper gums right 
behind the small dent below your nose and press against it hard. Most of 
the bleeding comes from the cartilage wall that divides the nose, so 
pressing there helps get it to stop.
10.)  Nervous? Slow your heart rate down by blowing on your thumb. The 
vagus nerve controls your heart rate, and you can calm it down by breathing.
11.)  Need to breathe underwater for a while? Instead of taking a huge 
breath, HYPERVENTILATE before you go under, by taking a bunch of short 
breaths. That'll trick your brain into thinking it has more oxygen, and buy 
you about 10 extra seconds.

12.)  You can prevent BRAIN FREEZE by pressing your tongue flat against 
the roof of your mouth, covering as much surface area as possible. Brain 
freeze happens because the nerves in the roof of your mouth get extremely 
cold, so your brain thinks your whole body is cold. It compensates by 
overheating which causes your head to hurt. By warming up the roof of 
your mouth, you'll chill your brain and feel better.
13.)  If your hand falls asleep, rock your head from side to side. That'll 
wake your hand or arm up in less than a minute. Your hand falls asleep 
because of the nerves in your neck compressing so loosening your neck 
is the cure. If your foot falls asleep, that's governed by nerves lower in 
the body, so you need to stand up and walk around.
14.)  Finally, this one's totally USELESS, but a nice trick. Have someone 
stick their arm out to the side, straight, palm down. Press down on his 
wrist with two fingers. He'll resist, and his arm will stay horizontal. Then, 
have him put his foot on a surface that's half an inch off the ground, like 
a stack of magazines, and do the trick again. Because his spine position 
is thrown off, his arm will fall right to his side, no matter how much 
he tries to resist.
15.)  Got the hiccups?  Press thumb and second finger over your 
eyebrows until the hiccups are over - usually, in a short while.
