This Is What Happens To Your Body If You Sleep On Your Left Side Every Night For a Month.

After a long day of working, running around, and being on your feet, nothing beats getting home to your nice comfy bed. For many of us, our bedrooms are our sanctuaries, it’s where we can fully unwind, let our guard down, and relax. It’s also the one place where the vast majority of our lives are spent. That’s because the average person sleeps for about eight hours a day. Over a lifetime this amounts to spending about one third of our total lives asleep.
While it’s common knowledge that a good nights rest is vitally important for maintaining our health and wellness, both mentally and physically, it’s not so well known that the position you sleep in can also greatly affect your health.
There are many different ways that people like and prefer to sleep in. The most common seems to be on either the left or the right side, on your back, and curled up in the fetal position. Each and every position affects your health in different ways that can be either good or bad. For example, sleeping on the back can be dangerous for people who have asthma and/or sleep apnea because it increases the risks associated with breathing difficulties. Alternatively, sleeping on ones right side can aggravate digestive problems and end up making them a lot worse. These negative effects and issues lead to not only lower quality sleep, but also less amounts of it.
The one side to sleep on, that is far and away better than all of the other sleep positions in terms of the benefits it has on our bodily health, is the left side. Sleeping on the left side can do many things, including helping us digest better and easier. It improves the overall digestive system by allowing the body to extract nutrients and dispose of toxins faster and more efficiently. In addition, it also affects our circulation and cardiovascular health because the heart is better able to pump downhill and the blood circulates more efficiently back to the heart.
Furthermore, the left side position also allows for bile and wastes to travel more freely through the body and helps improve spleen function. This results in better lymphatic drainage and more toxins leaving the body, with less overall stress and negative impacts to our health. Dr. John Douillard explains these benefits in greater detail and covers much more in the accompanying video. It’s incredible how much of a difference the position that you sleep in can have on your body.
If you are not sleeping on your left side already, you should try to make the switch as soon as possible. We each have a habitual, preferred way to slumber and it can be hard to break that habit, but it is possible to change with a few minor adjustments. You can train your body to sleep on the left side by switching on a light that’s located on the right side of where you sleep. Your body will naturally want to face away from the light source and thus you’ll turn on to the left side. There are lots of other ways that people have used to effectively change sleep positions, you just have to find out which one will likely work for you. If sleeping on the left side improves health and promotes better sleep, why wouldn’t you want to do it!

I’ve Been Peeling Post-it Notes Wrong For My Entire Life! I’m so glad I learned This!
image via – youtube.com
Post-it notes are one of those simple, seemingly inconsequential inventions that make life all the more easier. The small pieces of paper have a strip of tacky glue on the back and come in a variety of sizes and colors. Sticky notes come in most handy when organizing paperwork and files and they’re great for leaving messages and reminders on. Besides attaching them to paper, you can stick them just about anywhere.
Most people press them onto the fridge, mirror, doors, their arm, computer screens, and really on whatever they’ll stick to. Post-its are the original brand name of the product and they’re sold just about everywhere these days. The original yellow-colored squares are iconic by now, after being developed back in the 1970’s by a man named Arthur Fry.
Fry was a scientist and inventor who worked at 3M when he accidentally created the glue that is now on the back of all Post-it notes. He was trying to make a super-strong type of adhesive but instead he ended up making the less strong, yet reusable, tacky glue that makes Post-its so great to use. The glue doesn’t leave behind any residue and won’t stick so hard that it tears anything when it’s removed.
There is a right way and a wrong way to do just about everything in life, and that includes using Post-it notes. Recently it has emerged that most people have been peeling the sticky notes the wrong way their entire lives. The most common way to go about removing a single Post-it note from the pad is by taking the bottom edge and peeling it upwards and off the pad.
This leaves the non-tacky part of the paper sticking up in the air and curled so that you can’t view it quickly. It also results in the notes catching on things and coming loose or falling off the surface they were stuck to. The correct way to remove a Post-it note is to peel it from the side while pulling along the adhesive line using a down and away motion.
Check out the video for a clear demonstration of the process and once you see it, you’ll never use a Post-it note incorrectly ever again. That’s because peeling them the right way leaves you with an ideal, flat note that won’t come off the surface you stick it to.
This is a great bit of information to know going forward so pass it on and share the knowledge!

Their Pitbulls Were Barking Non-Stop At The Bushes. Then Granny Realizes Why Picks Up Her Grandkids and Sprints!
image via – youtube.com
Of all the dogs in the world, no breed has worse more of a bad rap than Pitbulls. The dog’s that were initially known as the “Nanny Dogs” because they were so good with young children and were the best family dogs in the United States way back in the early 1900’s. However, over the years these Nanny Dogs soon became notorious as the most ruthless, feared and scary attack dogs that could snap on anyone at any moment including their owners.
This stigma that has followed them like a dark cloud over the past few decades truly doesn’t reflect the nature of the breed. The problem is, many Pitbulls were trained by humans to fight and be aggressive since they were wee little pups. The dogs that were brainwashed early on have made negative headlines every year for snapping, attacking, hurting and in some cases even causing fatalities to other pets and people.
Like many stereotypes, a few bad seeds have set the precedence for the rest of the breed even though they are still wonderful dogs at heart and are only aggressive and mean if they are trained to be. People who own these dogs love them and try to spread the good word about them, however many people are set in their beliefs and changing people’s minds about Pitbulls has been near impossible to accomplish. There are even neighborhoods where laws have been passed banning the breed from living or even stepping foot on these properties. With all this being said today we will focus on the positive as we tell the tale of two Pitbulls who are actual heroes.
In this story we will be featuring two Pitbulls named Paco and Slayer. These dogs have lived with their family since they were puppies and were brought up with love and compassion and turned out to be wonderful dogs. They are members of the Butt family who have young children and never once have they snapped or been aggressive to any of the kids. However they have been amazing, extraordinary loving companions to the whole family.
One afternoon grandma and her grandchildren were outside on the lawn playing, when Paco and Slayer ears perked up and their noses lifted as they sensed that there was some sort of danger lurking nearby. They began to bark uncontrollably at the bushes as grandma tried to reign them in, they just wouldn’t let up! That’s when grandma saw what the two dogs were barking at, she grabbed her grandchildren and ran for the hills…

image via – youtube.com
With advancements in modern technology multiplying, it is now incredibly convenient to find out personal information about your genetics. Recently, many people have purchased DNA kits either from the drug store or from services like Ancestry.com. These DNA kits can tell you many things such as family history, hereditary traits, and genetics odds of inheriting different diseases among others. One man thought these kits would be perfect for gifts for his family.
James saw a holiday deal on Ancestry DNA and decided to purchase a kit for each member of his immediate family. James wrapped each kit and brought them to the house where they were celebrating Christmas. Finally, the big day came. The family all gathered around the living room Christmas morning. It was time to open presents.
After several delightful gift exchanges, it was James’ turn. He passed around the boxes and everyone began unwrapping. Then, he got an unexpected reaction. His mom gasped and dropped the box. She then began attempting to convince the family not to do the kits. Finally, she stormed out of the room to the second floor, her husband following in her wake. The whole family waited in tense silence as they heard yelling from upstairs.
Finally, James’ parents came downstairs. They seemed calmer as if they had come to some kind of consensus. His mom explained that her sons and daughters were actually from two different fathers. She had a previous husband who had died before the family had known him.
He had fathered the sisters in the family. Then, James’ mom found her present husband who had then fathered the sons of the family. It turned out Christmas wasn’t ruined at all. The family had a long conversation about their history and got even closer as a result.

96 Year Old Lady Finally Decides To Sell Her Home. But Wait Til’ You See What It Looks Like Inside!
image via – youtube.com
When the house at 148 Jane Street went on the market for sale in Toronto, Ontario, several people were extremely excited about it. They had heard rumors through the years that the house was a rare gem, but that’s all they had to go off of.
The home had been kept in the same family for generations and not many of the people who had ever been inside of it were still around. Over time the place had taken on a strange life of its own and so no one really knew what was true about it.
Sisters Gladys and Carla Spizzirri had heard about the house and had always been fascinated with it. They also happened to be real estate agents, so when they received a phone call from an older sounding woman who wished to sell the property, they immediately jumped at the opportunity.
The woman on the other end was a 96 year old named Joyce who was hesitant about putting her home up for sale. She had lived there for over 70 years and ever since she first moved in back in the 1940s, she’d always been a very private person. Her home was located in a prime area and based on that alone Gladys and Carla knew it’d sell for a lot.
However, something in Joyce’s voice told them that she was hesitant and holding something back. Maybe the house had serious issues or some type of problem that she was trying to hide. As long time real estate agents, they’d seen it all and usually when a potential seller was holding back and not wanting to let go, they turned out to be hoarders.
When the day finally came for them to check out 148 Jane Street, the women more than ready to see what was behind the front door. They pulled up to the nondescript brick house and when they stepped inside their mouths dropped in awe.
The place was not the jumbled mess of a hoarder, rather it was in pristine condition and looked like a home straight out of the 1940s. All of the floors, walls, fixings, furniture, and décor harkened back to that era and it was beautiful.
Joyce had stuck to a very feminine color palette of pinks, purples, and lighter shades of blue. There was also a lot of floral prints scattered throughout, such a décor scheme would probably throw off most male buyers, but women would definitely be drawn to the home.
There was one room that was markedly different than the rest, it was the basement which had been Joyce’s late husband’s hang out spot. It was covered in wood paneling, there was a wet bar and it looked straight out of a Mad Men episode.
In the end, the inspection far exceeded the sister’s expectations. They loved that it was so well maintained and the complete package. While it did need some updates and exterior changes, they were mostly minor and could be easily done.
They decided on a listing price of $699,000 and Joyce gave them the go-ahead to sell it. She was ready to let go and looking for a smaller place. Check out the video to see what it looked like inside and if you would want to live there!

Baby Began Acting Very Weird. But Then Their Hidden Baby Cam Captured THIS Nanny Doing the UNTHINKABLE!
image via – youtube.com
When becoming a parent for the first time there is just no way to know what you are getting yourself into until you do it. Yes it’s true no baby is exactly the same and you always have to be ready for the most unexpected. It doesn’t matter how many parenting books you have read, classes you’ve gone to, or even words of wisdom from friends and family who have already had children. This is just one of the many things in life that you must do even if you have no clue what you are doing..
This brings us to today’s story featuring the Mateny family Whitney and Chris, their new baby Railee, and the baby’s nanny Medina. They were living in Arkansas where Whitney was attending law school and fulfill her lifelong dream of becoming a lawyer. This made things pretty tough considering they just had their first baby, law school is all time consuming and Chris has a full time job to support his family. So like many other new parents who have to work on top of being a parent, a little back help from a reliable baby sister or a nanny is always ideal.
Whitney put out a post on her social media explaining how they were looking for a nanny who could take care of their 1 year old baby while they were at work. She got a pretty quick response from an old acquaintance Medina from high school. She was a bit happy that the nanny would be somebody she knew but at the same time her maternal instincts just could come to terms with leaving their baby alone with a stranger.
They decided before they hired her, they would do their due diligence and do all the necessary background checks to make sure their beautiful baby would be in good hands. She passed all the background checks and had a great reference so they hired her. At first everything between baby Railee and Medina was happy, loving and they just seemed to hit it off immediately. However, soon after mom noticed that the baby began to act really weird.
Every time the baby would see Medina she would cry and throw a fit. This concerned mom, so she brought Railee to the doctor who after careful examination said her strange behavior was most likely due to child separation anxiety so it seemed like the problem may have been targeted and now they could figure out how to ease this “separation anxiety” so that Railee would become so hysterical. After the doctors appointment mom then noticed Railee was sleeping for way too many hours during the day even for a 1 year old.
She always used to take 2 hour naps but now each nap bordered on anywhere between 4-6 hours. The Mateny family now was getting pretty concerned, so they decided to put a hidden baby cam in Railee’s room to see if Medina was doing anything weird to make their adorable baby act weird.
The day they picked up the video camera, they set it up in place so that the whole room would be visible. After work she quickly ran home to see if the footage picked up anything strange, weird or out of the ordinary. When she went into the baby’s room she immediately saw the camera had been turned around so it was facing the wall. She quickly grabbed and reviewed any footage it captured and oh boy did it catch some footage. What the video revealed was so much worse then the Mateny family could ever exist..
