Lots of gadget posts!

Sorry for all the posts on things you should buy but that's just what I find the most helpful at the moment. I'll change things up soon. These posts are by no means insinuating that you have to buy things to do things right, I'm simply sharing nifty things I have found helpful that I never knew about before.

I need it because I am on my phone A LOT and it would be so convenient to prop it somewhere and just watch instead of progressively getting carpal tunnel. Health first! :) Thanks for reading! ~ES Edit 1 day later: This gadget has revolutionized my life people, get it!

Cardio

Wow! I just saw a video about weight loss using cardio vs. weights and what it said was so true. Here  is the link in case you are interested. I feel so bad for myself for all the cardio I did in the past. It seems so pointless. Some of the main points are: 1) The muscles you workout while doing cardio are not your large muscles so you are working out parts of your body that do not require much energy so you have to run for a long time to burn an amount of calories that will lead to significant weight loss.

This is called Excess Post-Exercise Oxygen Consumption or EPOC for short. 4) Working out your larger muscles directly burns your fat not the carbs you consumed that day. 5) While cardio...

I have always used creamy soaps so my skin won't get dry as I don't wear lotion every single time I take a shower. But what I noticed is that my skin already has a milky smell to it which I never liked. You have to find something that counterbalances your natural smell if it is something you want to improve. I looked for a Himalayan Scrub partly due to intuition and partly because I read that Himalayan salt detoxifies your skin and have natural minerals.  This one in particular is great, they even gave me a promo code to get a free scrub which was a very pleasant surprise. The one I bought has a mild smell that stays with you. As someone who does not wear perfume often, this is great for me because it smooths out my skin and leaves a great mild, scent on my skin and clothes that is not overpowering. It's great! 2. Use a shower glove. Not only does thi...
