Safety Squad Video #4: Bedroom Safety

 

Hi, Safety Squad, Firefighter Tim here. and today, we’re going to talk about bedroom safety. In the last video, we spoke about what you should do if you hear a smoke alarm going off. Do you remember the phrase I gave you? That’s right!”Get low and go!” Good job. Remember, when we’re inside our home and we see smoke or fire, we need to immediately “get low and go” outside where it’s safe. But what happens if a fire starts in the middle of the night while we’re sleeping? Here’s another phrase I want you to remember.”Close before you doze.” This means that you close your bedroom door before you go to sleep. So why would we do that? Well, if your door is closed, the fire and smoke will have a hard time getting into your bedroom.

By closing your bedroom door every night before you go to sleep, if a fire does start in the middle of the night, you’ll have more time to get to safety.

Fire engineers, who are real life fire scientists, have done many experiments that prove a closed door prevents smoke and fire from entering a room. If lots of smoke and fire and outside your bedroom door, and your door is too hot to touch, don’t open it. We don’t want to crawl through the hot, yucky smoke to look for an exit. In this case, we should stay in our bedroom, we should keep the bedroom door closed. When the door is closed, the fire and smoke will have a hard time getting into your room, and you’ll have plenty of clean air to breathe until help arrives.

Next, we want to go to a window and wave our hands in front of it, if you know how to open the window, open it and start yelling out the window. Firefighters will be walking around the home looking in all the windows for anyone who may need help.

By being close to the window, they’ll be able to see where you are, and then come help you get to safety. It may be scary to wake up with smoke in your home. Remember that firefighters are coming to help you.

They’ll be wearing a helmet and special breathing mask that make them look and sound strange, but this protects from the fire and smoke. It’s important to stay close to the window and not hide anywhere in your bedroom. If you hide under the bed, or in your closet, then firefighters will have a really hard time finding you. So, the best place to be is near the window so that people can see you.

Okay, that’s it!

Great job today. Let’s review everything we learned. Do you remember that phrase I gave you at the beginning? That’s right! “Close before you doze!” This means that you should close your bedroom door before going to sleep. This will help protect you if a fire starts in the middle of the night. Now, if your door is too hot to touch, should you open it? NO! Great job.

If the door is too hot to touch, you should keep it closed and go to a window so that firefighters can see you from the outside of the home. Remember not to hide so that we can easily find you and get you outside to safety. Great job today, Safety Squad, that’s it for today! Stay safe and I’ll see you next time.

BLEPHARITIS Treatment at Home – 3 Blepharitis Home Remedy Tips

If you have ever had red, itchy, dry or irritated eyes a frequent cause of this is something called blepharitis but thankfully there are easy ways to treat blepharitis at home with just using a few simple steps. So, in this video, I’m going to be sharing my three top tips for blepharitis treatment at home. So hit that like button and let’s take a look. Hey, what’s up guys Dr. Joseph Allen here from the Dr Eye Health show thanks so much for joining us and thank you to Eye Love for sponsoring today’s video by sending us out some products to share with you guys as well as for making eye health education possible.

Now when it comes for treatment of blepharitis the following is a combination of what most eye doctors will talk about and the first thing on our list is that of warm compresses.

Now if you’ve ever watched.

The Dr Eye Health show before you know that we’ve shared a lot of tips about doing warm compresses  but warm compresses help for blepharitis because it helps soften up the hard eyelid crusts that  have built up on the eyelashes as well as heat up the oil glands within the eyelid called the  Meibomian glands and this helps melt any of the solidified waxy oils that are trapped in  there and allows them to run smoother.

Now if you’ve never done a warm compress before there are many ways to do it but research has shown that using some form of a hearable eye mask is most effective and that’s exactly why lot of eye clinics will sell hearable eye masks like the medieval mask here. Mainly because it holds the right amount of heat for a long enough time  and you easily just put it in the microwave for about 20 seconds and then you put it into the  washable mask cover which is honestly a pretty nice tip because if you do these over and over  you can build up eyelid crust and skin oils onto the back of the mask and to have something that’s  washable is kind of a nice thing. But otherwise, when it’s warmed up you just put the eyelid mask resting over your closed eyelids for about 10 to 15 minutes and honestly for myself. I find them very relaxing. Some doctors do also advocate for doing a vertical eyelid massage following a warm compress to help express any of those clogged Meibomian glands and if you’re not really sure how to do that I do have an instructional video on that I encourage you to check out if you do want to follow up with that extra step.



Now after doing warm compresses, it’s important to follow up doing eyelid scrubs using a wet washcloth and some form of an eyelid safe and healthy eyelid detergent and the Eye Love of brand here has their hydrate foaming tea tree and face wash which you can technically just put on your fingers and put directly onto your lashes and your eyelids,.

I personally still like to use a wet washcloth just to kind of really scrub along that lash line and break up any of the dead skin cells scales and oils that can build up and cake into those lashes. Alternatively you can also try the pre-moistened eyelid wipes which over  time I’ve honestly become more of a fan of mainly because it’s so simple to use you simply have to  tear it open remove the eyelid wipe you wrap the eyelid wipe around your finger and then you just  have to scrub along the eyelid and your eyelashes. I think the eyelid wipes are definitely the most  convenient because you can take them with whatever you want like if you’re traveling or something  they do help with removing eye makeup and at least with this Mediviz brand you don’t have to wash off  anything afterwards.

Now the third step and is really great for anybody with very sensitive skin or having chronic long-lasting blepharitis tissues is that of using something thing that’s very popular amongst eye doctors and that’s of using hypochlorous acid.

Which is a naturally occurring and safe disinfectant. Now Eye love has their hydrate lid and lash cleanser here which is  a simple spray that works as a great cleanser and it can be used multiple times a day you just spray  it on leave it dry you have no need to rinse it off and it doesn’t cause any burning or stinging  which is super nice now of course there are many different products on the market for cleaning  and taking care of the eyelids but of course in today’s video we did feature products from the.

I love company which if you’ve never heard about them I wanted to feature them today because they  are just a super cool company and I encourage you to check them out it was founded by two  optometrists who really wanted to make the highest quality products possible but also affordable and  using natural ingredients which is all just amazing things so again happy to share them  with you guys so if you want to check out any of the island products that were featured in today’s  video check the YouTube description below I’ll put links to everything there.

Now using the tips for blepharitis here in this video usually does the trick but occasionally people do have more extreme cases and I always encourage you to talk with your local eye doctor to figure out what is best for you when needed eye doctors do occasionally have to prescribe antibiotics or anti-inflammatory  medications along with eyelid hygiene to get things under control. Either way let us know  in the comments section if you’ve ever dealt with red itchy irritated dry eyes and what has helped  the most for you I always think it’s incredible to read the comments and see what people are  talking about otherwise if you want to learn more about blepharitis tips about getting rid of eyelid  styes or dry eye treatments check out some of our other videos in our playlist here.

Otherwise again this is Dr Allen here from the Dr Eye Health show keep an eye on it and we’ll see you soon.

How to Apply Beneficial Nematodes to Control Pests in Your Garden

Good morning gardenerds, I’m Christy Wilhelmi from Gardenerd. And I’m whispering because it’s Sunday morning at dawn, which is the time to apply beneficial nematodes to your garden. So that’s what I’m doing today. I wanted to kind of walk you through the process in case you want to do some of this for yourself. Beneficial nematodes do a number of things.

In fact, they pretty much solve a lot of pest problems in your garden. But the trick is you have to apply at a certain time, and you may have to reapply more than once in order to catch them, to interrupt the life cycle of these various pests that often pupate in the soil. So I’m going to walk you through the process. Here’s how we do it. First up, you’re going to need some way to apply the nematodes to soil surfaces and to leaf surfaces.

So you can do that one of two ways. You can use a hose end sprayer like this or a backpack sprayer which is my favorite thing in the world, because it’s, you know, it’s like the gardening equivalent to power tools. Awesome. You’re going to need a water filter. This is a hose…an inline water filter. Or you can you know fill your vessel from the sink or attach it to your hose for this.

And of course you’re going to need nematodes.

Nematodes come a couple of different ways. Most of the time they come in a powder form that you can scoop into a vessel and fill it with water. Or it comes in a really stinky sponge that you put in a bucket of water and squeeze in order to release the nematodes into the water. So, we’re going to do that and then get moving but first let’s talk about beneficial nematodes and what they do. I’m going to focus on three beneficial nematodes. And by the way it’s nematode like nemesis, not nematode like nemesis. Anyway, beneficial nematodes do a lot for your garden. They target certain pests in the soil and on the leaf surfaces. So, the three that are important are Steinernema feltier, Steinernema carcasses and Hetero rigidities bacteriotherapy.

Steinernema feltier treats armyworms, cutworms, cabbage maggot, coddling moth, corn ear worm, crane flies, cucumber beetles, fruit flies, fungus gnats, raspberry crown borer, thrips, and sweet potato weevil, and so much more. Steinernema carcasses treats cotton bowl worm, cockroaches, cutworm, leaf miners, flea larva, peach tree borers, flea beetles, strawberry root weevils, and a bunch of other stuff. And Hetero rabidity’s bacteriotherapy treats ants, asparagus beetle, borers, Colorado potato beetle, Japanese beetle, June bugs, grapefruit borer, and a whole bunch of other stuff. The important thing to start with is to figure out how much the vessel you’re planning on using covers certain amounts of space in your garden. I know I can fit four gallons in here and with four gallons I can cover the backyard, or the front yard, or my community garden plot. So, I’m going to divide my package of nematodes into three different batches so that I can cover all of those areas.

So, I’m going to divide these each of these because I got all three into my I’m going to do probably a half scoop of each of these, scoop of each of these half tablespoons yeah basically I’m going to do and then that will get me three batches. They are stinky by the way. So these are going to go back in the fridge until I’m ready to do my second batch. Because they’re living organisms and you want them to stay alive and cold and happy until you’re ready to use them again. Okay next, now that this is in here, I’m going to fill this with water and start spraying.

If you use a backpack sprayer, make sure that the nozzle on the end of it is wide enough to release microbes out into the world. Otherwise they’ll just stay in your in your backpack sprayer. It needs to have at least an opening of 400 microns in order to make that work. Sometimes this powder can be a little clumpy so you might need to stir it. It’s going to be a little heavy, it’s okay.

All right. Okay, let’s do this.

Always grab your hose nozzle before you pick up the backpack because you won’t be able to reach it afterwards. So now you pump and get going. This Valencia orange tree has leaf miners, and one of the three types of beneficial nematodes treat them.

Hey Mittens. She seems to be making appearances in my garden more and more; in my garden videos I mean. This is my squash patch and while we haven’t had issues with cucumber beetles and squash beetles here, we have at my community garden plot, so we are treating the soil because they are vectors for bacterial wilt.

Beneficial nematodes also treat coddling moth on the apple tree. And peach leaf curl, and ants, and a bunch of other stuff.

In garden beds it’s important to apply directly to the soil because your seasonal crops are, you know, going to finish up at some point but the soil is always going to be there. look out Mittens. By the way, beneficial nematodes are not going to harm pets. They’re safe for use. You do need to keep the soil moist for the next week or so to let them get going. Don’t let the soil dry out because when soil dries out microbes go dormant or die. Beneficial nematodes are part of any integrated pest management program including compost tea and worm castings. It allows you to get back to gardening and focusing less on treating bugs.

Dry Eye Treatments You Can Do At Home!

Hi, I’m Dr. Michele Lee, a board-certified ophthalmologist, and in this video, we are going to talk about five dry eye treatments you can do at home and without a prescription – all natural, safe, and effective. Before I get started, please like and subscribe to my channel, where I post a new video every Saturday about eye health and disease. The first dry eye treatment that you can do at home is to apply a warm compress to your eyelids. There are certain conditions, like ocular rosacea, where you may want to use this treatment sparingly, but for most cases of dry eye this can be very helpful.

Warm compresses help with blocked meibomian, or oil, glands that we all have on our upper and lower eyelids. The lack of oil in our tear film causes quick evaporation of our tears that can lead to a type of dry eye where you make tears but not good quality tears that don’t really do a good job lubricating your eyes.

My first tip for this is to use warm, not hot, compresses. Check the temperature with the back of your wrist or elbow to make sure you don’t burn your eyelids. You want to make sure you have at least 5 minutes of heat to your eyelids per session, and I would recommend you do these one to two times a day for best results. There are a few ways you can make a warm compress. You can use a clean washcloth and run warm water from your sink, bath, or shower and apply the washcloth directly on your eyelids, rewetting with warm water when needed. A more elegant way to do a warm compress is to buy a special eye mask. I recommend the Dr. Bruder mask, and I’ve linked this down below.

A poor man’s version of this mask is to use a clean tube sock, fill it with rice, and tie the end with a string. You can microwave the mask or sock contraption for 20-30 seconds and apply to your eyelids, with or without a thin towel in between the warm mask and your eyelids.

This contraption will retain heat longer than a wet washcloth.

The next dry eye treatment is to work on creating an environment that is helping, not hurting, your eyes. I live and practice in Arizona, which is one of the driest states in the United States, and almost every patient I see here has some degree of dry eye just from living in such a dry climate. I frequently recommend getting a humidifier at home or at work to moisten the environment and help decrease evaporation of tears from the eye. Another important tip is minimizing air conditioners, heaters, and fans blowing directly into the eyes since these will really dry out your tears and worsen your dry eye symptoms! You should also consider changing your diet to help with your dry eye symptoms.

The easiest thing you can do is to drink more water and stay hydrated. Also, while controversial at the moment, I don’t think it would hurt to eat foods with more omega-3 fatty acids and flaxseed oil, since there is some evidence that this change can make a difference for some cases of dry eye.

Another important treatment is giving your eyes a chance to rest. Not only should you be getting a good night’s sleep, when we are reading or on the computer or phone, we are staring a lot and our blink rate goes down. This can cause tears to evaporate from your eyes and can really dry out your eyes and blur your vision.

The easiest thing you can do is to close your eyes for a few seconds when your eyes start to feel tired or dry. This gives your tears a chance to lubricate your corneas, and your eyes get a chance to rest.

The most important dry eye treatment I have is to lubricate your eyes with over-the-counter preservative-free tears and ointments. This is going to be the first treatment your eye doctor will suggest for any dry eye symptom, and preservative-free artificial tears are extremely safe and effective for pretty much all types of dry eye. Also, if you wake up in the morning with eye pain or irritation, or sleep with your eyes partially open, you might be drying out your eyes at night. I would recommend an ointment or gel. You can put a small amount, about the size of a grain of uncooked rice, in this inner pocket between your eye and lower eyelid right before you go to sleep.

This will make your vision blurry and your eyes sticky when you blink, so this is best done right before you go to sleep or take a nap. If all of these at-home tips and tricks fail, it is time to see your eye care provider since we have a lot of great treatments available to help with your unique case of dry eye.

Do you have dry eye, and has there been a treatment or lifestyle change that has worked well for you? Let me know in the comments below. Thanks for watching my video, remember to like and subscribe, and I’ll see you in my next video.
Bye!

How to Fall Asleep Faster: CBT-Insomnia Treatment

Hi, everyone. I’m Emma McAdam. I’m a licensed marriage and family therapist, and I make mental-health education videos. If you were to ask someone, “What’s causing your insomnia?”  they might say something like, “Oh, my stress, my anxiety, my brain won’t shut off.” Maybe they think it’s their cat waking them up or they drank too much coffee or watched a scary movie before bed. And granted, all of these things can mess with your sleep for a night or two or more, but they aren’t the thing that causes chronic insomnia.

So, in most cases, chronic insomnia is caused by one bad habit where you accidentally trained your brain not to sleep.  The bad habit is staying in bed awake. This is the worst thing you can do for your insomnia, and its key to one of the most effective treatments for insomnia, CBTI, an evidence-based treatment for insomnia that has shown up to 80% effectiveness at relieving insomnia.

You see,  when you lie in bed awake – maybe you went to bed too early or you’re trying to force yourself to  sleep – and you’re worrying about all the things you know what you said that day and what’s going  to happen with your job and whether that one guy likes you or any of any number of other things,  you’re basically training your brain that the bed is the place for worrying and lying there awake.

 This is a paired association.

It’s like Pavlov’s dogs – they learned to salivate when the bell rang, even when there wasn’t any food around. When you lay in bed awake, your brain learns that the bed is the place for worrying, for thinking, for watching shows, for doing homework, whatever it is that you’re doing. You lay down in bed, and your brain thinks, “Oh, I know this place.

This is the thinking place.” So, without realizing it you trigger that worry reaction, and then it takes hours to fall asleep. So, one aspect of the most effective treatment for insomnia is if you can’t sleep, get out of bed. If you can’t sleep and it’s been more than 15 minutes, get out of bed.

Do something that’s not too stimulating, and then when you start to feel drowsy, go lay back down.

Now, I know this sounds miserable. You’re probably thinking, “Oh, I’m just going to be so tired, and this will just make it worse.” And yes, that’s true. You may be more tired in the short term. But within a week or so it’s most likely going to improve your sleep efficiency.
So that’s the percentage of time that you spend in bed actually sleeping. So just remember this, right? Get up, hang out, try again. Right? Get up, go sit quietly in another room, hang out, do nothing or, you know, read a soothing book.

If you lay there for more than 15 minutes, get back up, hang out, and then try again when you feel sleepy. Now, while this feels miserable, it works really well. You may feel sleep-deprived for a couple of days, but in the long run it’s very effective at treating insomnia. Getting out of bed does two things, right? It retrains your brain that the bed is for sleeping and no other stuff, and then it also builds up like this sleep pressure basically, that tired feeling, so that when you do lay down you’ve got more internal drive to sleep, and you fall asleep faster.

And again, that retrains your brain that the bed is for sleeping. So, as you retrain your brain, you’ll fall asleep faster, you’ll stay asleep longer, and you’ll spend less time lying awake getting angry that you’re not sleeping. And again, this is  a core principle of CBTI: it literally rewires the brain to sleep better. They have imaging studies showing that after CBTI, people have improved cognitive functioning, decreased stress, and improved memory. And most importantly, you sleep better. Okay. Thanks for watching and take care.
