Your hands are related to your health: the symptoms you should look at

We put creams on them, we make them super cute mani, and we use them daily, but perhaps we do not realize that there is much that hands can say about health.

Knowing how to pay attention to the signs and symptoms that manifest in them can help you identify underlying health problems.

These symptoms in your hands can tell you something about your health

Tingling

We all know the tingling sensation when we sleep in an awkward position or sit on our hands for too long, but if you experience regular tingling it doesn’t go away over time. It could be a sign of carpal tunnel syndrome.

According to the Mayo Clinic, carpal tunnel syndrome occurs when a vital nerve (known as the median nerve) in the wrist is compressed, causing tingling, numbness, and pain in the fingers. This will most likely resolve itself, but some people may end up needing surgery.

People with diabetes may also develop nerve damage caused by maintaining high blood sugar levels for a long time. According to Dr. Maria S. Prelipcean, if you have diabetes and notice numbness, tingling, pain, or weakness in your hands or feet, you should visit your doctor. These are early symptoms of peripheral neuropathy. It’s often dangerous when you can’t feel the pain and you develop a foot ulcer.

Nail stains

If you are like us and you like to have your nails always fixed, we recommend you take a break from time to time to check the condition of your natural nails (not to mention that you will save some money).

White spots on the nail are usually a sign of trauma to the nail bed, such as crushing yourself with a door. But if you notice more obvious changes in the color of your nails (if they’re half white and half brown, for example), this could be a sign of kidney disease, cirrhosis, or type 2 diabetes.

Sweaty hands

It’s super normal to sweat your hands when you’re anxious or nervous as wet hands are a bodily response to nerves, exercise, or even low blood sugar. If you feel like your hands are sweating and you’re not nervous or exercising, it could be hyperhidrosis.

However unexplained sweating on the hands (it can also appear on the face, neck, and armpits) can be a symptom of hyperthyroidism.

Why the Full Moon Affects Your Sleep and How to Fight It

If it has happened to you that on full moon days, you have a hard time sleeping, you have a little insomnia, and your sleep cycles are a disaster in general, there is a reason behind it. We share with you the causes of this phenomenon and how you can combat it.

The full moon is one of nature’s most beautiful phenomena, but sometimes, it can interfere with your sleep. Among the causes of this are: the luminosity of the moon, changes in the circadian rhythm, and ups and downs in moods and emotions.

Why the Full Moon Affects Your Sleep

If the weeks when there is a full moon you have noticed that your sleep is affected and you have a hard time falling asleep, you are not alone, and there are reasons.

The effects on your sleep can appear up to five days before the astrological phenomenon happens. To begin with, the phases of the moon affect the tide of the oceans, and this directly impacts the energy and moods of humans. You may feel a little more irritable or insecure, and therefore, it may be harder for you to fall asleep.

Then, many times the full moon can bring with it “chaotic energy”, which favors insomnia. These are times when people overthink many things and start analyzing even the smallest details of any situation.

What can I do if the full moon affects my sleep?

Moon Breathing.

Moon breathing is a very popular meditation technique that can help you fall asleep. It may sound a little crazy, but it’s effective.

It consists of covering your right nostril and only breathing through the left. Having a controlled and conscious breath has a positive effect on the nervous system. It sends signals that things are relaxed and peaceful.

To do this, you must sit with your back straight, close your eyes, relax your shoulders, and start with your controlled breathing. Repeat the process for a few minutes until you feel more relaxed.

Does traveling give you anxiety? Hypnotherapy can help you

Published on by LeeLeave a comment

If you are one of those who do not have good experiences on airplanes when traveling, hypnotherapy may be one of your solutions.

Having anxiety when traveling is completely normal. What is not good is that you fear being on a plane and your intrusive thoughts torture you for the 2, 5, or 10 hours that your flight lasts. If you have already tried meditation, breathing exercises, and even some medication, and nothing has worked for you, the answer may lie in hypnotherapy. We tell you what it is.

What is hypnotherapy and how can it help you when traveling?

Hypnotherapy is a form of therapy that uses hypnosis as a tool to help people overcome emotional, psychological, or physical problems.

Yes, it sounds like something they would do in a Disney movie, and although it is something similar, it does not involve witches or magical artifacts, and they will not force you to do something you do not want. This therapy consists of inducing a state of hypnotic trance in patients so that they relax deeply and generate greater concentration in their subconscious.

Therapists use verbal techniques (such as questions and reflections on important moments in patients’ lives) to help them solve their problems and leave their fears behind. The goal of this therapy is to explore the underlying causes of the problems. To leave a fear or experience behind, it is important to find memories and repressed emotions about a specific topic.

Hypnotherapy and air travel

Your therapist can teach you to enter a state of hypnosis that will help you combat your anxiety when traveling. This practice can be a very good solution to your problems with airplanes since you will find a way to take control of your subconscious and not let it control you.

Generally finding the real causes of why people are afraid of airplanes is not easy. You may think that they are superficial things however, many times it can go back to traumatic childhood experiences or even something they saw on television and do not remember.

If you think this may be the case for you, talk to your therapist about it and see if there is a chance to explore much more about this type of therapy.
