I have had many CPR classes over the years but was never told this . . . ❤️🤔 I’m not sure if it works but it’s better than doing nothing, please read:

When you are alone and have a heart attack. What do you do?

1. Let's say it's 5:25 pm and you're driving home after an unusually hard day's work.

2. You are really tired and frustrated. All of a sudden your chest pains. They are starting to radiate in the arm and jaw. It feels like being stabbed in the chest and heart. You're only a few miles away from the nearest hospital or home.

3. Unfortunately you don't know if you can make it...

4. How do you survive a heart attack when you're alone? A person who is feeling weak and whose heart is beating hard has only about 10 seconds before losing consciousness.

6. But you can help yourself by coughing repeatedly and very strongly! Deep breaths before every cough. Coughing should be repeated every second until you arrive at the hospital or until your heart starts to beat normally.

7. Deep breathing gives oxygen to your lungs 🫁 and coughing movements boost the heart and blood circulation. Heart pressure also helps to restore a normal heartbeat. Here's how cardiac arrest victims can make it to the hospital for the right treatment.

8. Cardiologists say if someone gets this message and passes it on to 10 people, we can expect to save at least one life.☝🏻

9. FOR WOMEN 👭: You should know that women have additional and different symptoms. Rarely have crushing chest pain or pain in the arms. Often have indigestion and tightness across the back at the bra line plus sudden fatigue.

You're helping save lives by spreading this message. 💞

Two fertility considerations:

1. Pelvic care:

The main pelvic organs involved in reproduction are the uterus, fallopian tubes, and ovaries. The ovaries, or egg producers, need to be mobile and have effective blood supply, without this, hormone output is altered, hindering conception. The fallopian tubes also require a robust blood supply and freedom of movement to transport the egg to the uterus. The uterus is incredibly mobile, tilting & bending forward to allow for bladder and intestinal fullness.

If these female reproductive organs become compressed & immobile it decreases their reproductive capacity. For example, the uterus can be compacted by bowel constipation, causing restricted uterine movement, decreased function & pelvic congestion (Ashburner, 2017).

Your pelvic floor muscles below the reproductive organs & the ligaments which hold these organs in place also play a vital role in female fertility, here’s why. The broad ligaments & uterine ligaments attach the uterus to the sides & front of the pelvis respectively (Whitehead, 2019).

If you have tension on one side of the pelvis from scarring due to previous pelvic trauma, overly tight pelvic floor muscles or a pelvic tilt, this can create uneven tension on the reproductive ligaments affecting normal fluid flow. Tension may cause implantation issues which impacts conception. This is even more true if you have a blocked fallopian tube on one side & pelvic tension on the other side, affecting freedom of movement for the working fallopian tube.

2. Stress levels:

Chronic stress increases cortisol levels which can directly impact fertility. High cortisol levels can affect menstruation regularity and ovulation. Libido, egg quality & implantation can also be impacted by stress (NFP, 2023).

Navigating fertility is a physical, emotional, and mental journey. Each step taken to manage cortisol and stress levels creates a more favourable path to conception and parenthood.

What can you do to manage stress? One simple step you can take to reduce your stress is mindful belly breathing. Belly breathing to a rhythm of 4’s works by promoting your rest & digest (parasympathetic) system, ~See belly breathing pic.❤️

Well written.🌿
Chronic pain is such a hard thing to comprehend unless you have experienced it. Talking with chronic pain patients, it’s clear that some days even the simplest task we take for granted, can seem overwhelming. A persons tolerance & function vary from day to day, so meet people where they are at in the moment, put yourself in their shoes & ask how you can help.

Trapezius muscle stretches are great for people who are stressed & carry their tension in their shoulders, neck & jaw.
Tight upper traps can contribute to headaches, so keeping these beautiful hardworking muscles loose & strong is very beneficial for general wellbeing.
