And yet, your pup’s dry dull skin and coat are far from what was promised. What if this could be solved something as simple as coconut oil, which is probably already in your kitchen?</span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 24px; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><span style="line-height: 24px;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">Why coconut oil?<o:p></o:p></span></span></b></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 24px; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;"><span style="mso-bidi-font-family: "Helvetica Neue";"><span style="font-family: verdana;">Coconut oil is a great choice because it is entirely natural and safe to apply onto your dog’s skin/coat. Coconut oil also has numerous benefits other than just providing hydration and shine to the skin and coat of dogs.</span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 24px; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><span style="mso-bidi-font-family: "Helvetica Neue";">For example, coconut oil naturally protects your dog from pests like fleas and ticks (you can even add a few drops of </span><a href="https://thepawsomeworld.com/brushing-dog-teeth-coconut-oil/" target="_blank"><span style="mso-bidi-font-family: "Helvetica Neue";">essential oils to further repel fleas and ticks</span></a><span style="mso-bidi-font-family: "Helvetica Neue";">). Coconut oil does this by stopping fleas and ticks from biting your dog. As soon as fleas or ticks land on your dog, the coconut oil will make it hard for them to move, and eventually suffocate them as well.</span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 24px; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;"><span style="mso-bidi-font-family: "Helvetica Neue";"><span style="font-family: verdana;">Coconut oil is also anti-bacterial and anti-inflammatory. This means it can help disinfect and treat any infections or bites that may already exist. This is due to to the fatty acids in coconut oil, with lauric acid being the main one. Lauric acid is known to be effective for cleansing and killing the bacteria that cause conditions like dog eczema. Lauric acid also has a particular chemical makeup which helps the coconut oil be more readily absorbed when compared to absorption levels for other oils.</span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 24px; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;"><span style="mso-bidi-font-family: "Helvetica Neue";"><span style="font-family: verdana;">Lastly, coconut oil will help to alleviate some of the itchiness that your dog may be experiencing, due to dry skin or otherwise.</span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 24px; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><span style="font-size: 18pt; line-height: 36px; mso-bidi-font-family: "Helvetica Neue";"><span style="font-family: verdana;">Ways to incorporate coconut oil into bath time?<o:p></o:p></span></span></b></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 24px; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 28px; mso-bidi-font-family: "Helvetica Neue";"><span style="font-family: verdana;">Method #1: As a Mask<o:p></o:p></span></span></b></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 24px; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;"><span style="mso-bidi-font-family: "Helvetica Neue";"><span style="font-family: verdana;">Coconut oil can be applied to dogs as a doggie deep conditioning mask.

Engaging in a creative project allows individuals to focus their attention on the task at hand, which can help alleviate stress and calm the mind.

Art therapy, for example, is a recognized form of psychotherapy that uses the creative process to promote emotional healing and self-discovery.

You can use it to represent personal style and individuality, and it can completely transform an outfit. Whether it is a casual event or a formal occasion, the right piece of jewellery can enhance your overall aesthetic and help you make a powerful statement. However, with such a variety of jewellery on the market, choosing the ideal piece for every occasion can be daunting. Here are a few pointers to help you pick the perfect piece of jewellery for all occasions.</span></p><h2 dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.295; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 2pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #2f5496; font-family: Ebrima; font-size: 13pt; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Consider the Occasion</span></h2><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.295; margin-bottom: 8pt; margin-top: 0pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Ebrima; font-size: 11pt; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Before selecting anything, it is important to think about the occasion. To ensure you look your best, it is important to determine how formal or casual an event is before choosing your jewellery. For casual get-togethers, experiment with fun, trendy accessories, such as layered bracelets or statement rings.

Consider your preferences and the overall aesthetic you want to convey. Those with a minimalist style may lean towards simple yet elegant pieces, like stud earrings or dainty chain necklaces. If you love to make a statement, bold, eclectic pieces might be more up your street. Buying bespoke jewellery that is designed just for you is not only a wonderful way to make a statement, but it helps to ensure the piece exudes your own personal style.

Seek pieces that are easy to dress up or down. This allows you to wear them for various events and occasions. For instance, a stunning diamond necklace or a pair of timeless pearl earrings can effortlessly inject style into your outfit and will help style up both casual and formal attire.</span></p><h2 dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.295; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 2pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #2f5496; font-family: Ebrima; font-size: 13pt; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Consider Function and Style</span></h2><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.295; margin-bottom: 8pt; margin-top: 0pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Ebrima; font-size: 11pt; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">While style is important, the functionality of an item of jewellery should not be overlooked. Think about how durable a piece is before making a purchase and the maintenance requirements. Pieces that you intend to wear frequently should be crafted out of sturdy materials and feature designs that can withstand daily wear. In addition, consider choosing pieces that complement your existing collection to maximise wearability.</span></p><h2 dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.295; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 2pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #2f5496; font-family: Ebrima; font-size: 13pt; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Complement Your Attire</span></h2><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.295; margin-bottom: 8pt; margin-top: 0pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Ebrima; font-size: 11pt; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Jewellery should enhance your ensemble, not overwhelm it. Pay attention to the colours and neckline of your clothes when picking an item of jewellery. A pendant necklace with an eye-catching design is an excellent choice for low-cut necklines. When opting for vibrant colours or bold patterns, choose monochrome or neutral jewellery to avoid overpowering your outfit.

If you have a pet, you are someone who understands. Each pet has his or her own unique personality. As you get to know them and they get to know you, you develop a special bond that truly makes them a part of your family. Unfortunately, most pets don’t live as long as us humans do. In my opinion, we should use every second of their lives as an opportunity to make their short lives amazing! Here are some ways I like to spoil my dog to show him I love him, and make his short life here on Earth the best that it can be: </span></span></p><span id="docs-internal-guid-b68d5b82-7fff-84a6-e8b3-482f0486fe12"><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><br /></span></div><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><b>Varied Treats</b></span></span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">Maybe the easiest way to treat your dog is to switch up the treats you give him. There are SO many different flavors, textures, and types of pet treats on the market, so switch it up! If he is used to bacon-flavored treats, try the chicken flavor next time. If you always give a certain brand, change the brand for a different experience. There are a couple of things to consider before you try this: Make sure to read ingredients for the new treats to be sure there is nothing that could harm your pet. For example, rawhide can often be dangerous for dogs. Do your research! Also, be careful with switching up his normal dog food; new treats should be okay, but changing a dog’s everyday food can give him an upset tummy. </span></span></p><span style="font-family: verdana;"><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div></span><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><b>Daily Walks</b></span></span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">If you do not already take your dog on daily walks, not only is it great exercise for your dog, but it is also great exercise for you! It can be loads of fun and is a great way to bond with your fur friend. Daily walks allow your dog to be a dog! This is his opportunity to explore new sights and smells, and maybe even meet another dog if he is lucky. If you do already take your dog on walks, try a new route or location to keep things exciting for your pup. Switch up your normal route, or even try going to a nearby hiking location to get extra adventurous! Your dog will appreciate it, and you might enjoy the new scenery, as well. </span></span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div></span><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><b>Subscription Boxes</b></span></span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">When I walk inside with a package, my dog always assumes it’s for him. This is definitely a sign of a spoiled dog. There are many different subscription services made just for dogs! Many of these subscription services make varying boxes for different sizes of dog and chewing habits. The boxes that I currently get for my dog come once per month, and they always have a few packages of treats, chews, toys, and occasionally a clothing item. My dog loves when he gets to open one! This is also a wonderful way to vary your treats since the boxes rarely contain the same type of treat. </span></span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; text-align: justify;"><br /></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><b>Spend More Time Together</b></span></span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><span style="font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">I know we are all short on time these days, but remember that while your dog is a part of your life, you are your dog’s whole life. Spending more time with your pet will show him that you love him, and will make his shorter life memorable and fulfilling. One way to make more time in your schedule for your pet is to do things together. If you’re going out, check to see if the store you’re visiting allows pets. Making an effort to go to restaurants that are pet-friendly can also add some quality time to your pet’s life. Another way to make more time for your pet is to free up your schedule by hiring professionals to help with the day-to-day tasks. My favorite type of help to hire is movers. Moving companies can be so versatile! Not only are they helpful when you are making a big move, but they can also be helpful when you are moving heavy objects around or selling/buying large things.

social, and governance (ESG) issues are becoming increasingly
important to companies of all sizes. Many investors and customers now
interrogate the measures firms are taking to ensure they are
operating in an ethically and environmentally responsible way.</span></span></p><p style="line-height: 100%; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><span lang="en-US"><br /></span></span></p>
<p style="line-height: 100%; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><span lang="en-US">While
ESG covers many diverse issues, this article focuses on how to
improve and communicate your brand’s sustainability credentials. By
following the tips in this helpful guide, you should be able to

<p style="line-height: 100%; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: justify;"><span lang="en-US"><span style="font-family: verdana;">For
example, smaller companies may focus on workplace sustainability
efforts, like recycling and water conservation. With larger firms,
the audit may extend to topics such as electrifying the vehicle fleet

sure it’s detailed enough to offer a good starting point for
creating and communicating positive changes.</span></span></p><p style="line-height: 100%; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: justify;"><span lang="en-US"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><br /></span></span></p>

<p style="line-height: 100%; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><span lang="en-US">A

you don’t have a chief sustainability officer, consider appointing
an informal sustainability leader among your staff and even set aside
a small budget for team-wide activities. Invite your employees’
ideas and ensure everyone’s efforts are recognized and publicized.
Your team will feel like they are making a real difference to the

regarding their environmental footprint, be sure to take every

social media is the ideal platform to let your customer base know

even further and support your brand.</span></span></p>
<p style="line-height: 100%; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: justify;"><span lang="en-US"><span style="font-family: verdana;">Indeed,

Furthermore, the iPool requires less chemicals per week resulting in easy and simple maintenance. </span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">The Fitmax iPool is perfect for the whole family to use, and Olympic athletes have even used it for professional training.

<p class="BodyA" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">Running
a business isn’t easy, but in today’s massively connected world, there are more
opportunities than ever for companies of all sizes to promote themselves and reach
out to and connect with clients.</span></p>
<p class="BodyA" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">If
you’re looking for cost-effective ways to promote your firm and generate new business
without stretching your budget, below are some tips used by the pros.</span></p>
<p class="BodyA" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><b>Invest in the best website you can afford</b></span></p>
<p class="BodyA" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">For
the majority of companies these days, their website will be the first point of
contact with the world – plus, it provides a very useful way of letting
existing clients get in touch. While the last few years have seen a
proliferation of web-building platforms become available, if you’re to get the
greatest benefits from your website and also create the best impression, you
should work with a professional design company. Search online for <a href="https://www.717graphicdesign.co.uk/services/web/" target="_blank">web designers near me</a> to
find your best options.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></span></p>
<p class="BodyA" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><b>Get sociable and embrace the power of social platforms</b></span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: verdana;"> </span></p>
<p class="BodyA" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">While
it may often be easy to be somewhat skeptical about <a href="https://smallbiztrends.com/2013/05/the-complete-history-of-social-media-infographic.html" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">social media</a>, the fact remains that the larger social platforms like Facebook,
Instagram, YouTube, and Twitter offer a tremendous opportunity to reach out to
new clients and also build a sense of community and loyalty behind your firm.</span></p>
<p class="BodyA" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">Moreover,
with so many social media platforms available, you’ll be spoiled for choice
when it comes to choosing which is right for your firm. Sure, you should
promote your company on the larger platforms like Facebook, but don’t discount
some of the smaller, perhaps less visible platforms. For example, if your
company sells primarily female-oriented products, Pinterest, with its <a href="https://www.statista.com/statistics/248168/gender-distribution-of-pinterest-users/#:~:text=This%20statistic%20gives%20information%20on,and%2014.5%20percent%20were%20male." rel="nofollow" target="_blank">77% female user base</a>, might prove ideal.</span></p>
<p class="BodyA" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><b>Capitalize on the opportunities of SEO</b></span></p>
<p class="BodyA" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">These
days, having a website is just one very small part of a far, far bigger
picture. There are now more web pages in the world than there are people - a
fact that has made it more difficult than ever to get your content seen.</span></p>
<p class="BodyA" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">In
truth, you could have the greatest, best-designed, all singing, all dancing
website - but if it isn’t generating traffic, it will be doing literally
nothing for your company.</span></p>
<p class="BodyA" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">Search
Engine Optimization (SEO) is the massively detailed and complex process used by
web marketing specialists to get websites ranking high up the listings - in
particular, on Google, which is by far the most dominant search platform.
Bottom line - if your site isn’t ranking in Google, you will be losing
business.</span></p>
<p class="BodyA" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><b>Reach out with email marketing</b></span></p>
<p class="BodyA" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">Social
media may have made it easier to stay in touch with clients but there’s still
considerable value to be had from building an email subscriber list. Email
marketing has been proven as one of the best ways to build (and keep) customer
loyalty while also sending a positive message to your clients. If you want to
take your email marketing to another level, consider investing in dedicated
email software apps like MailChimp that will let you track the effectiveness of
your campaigns. </span><o:p></o:p></p>Cynthia Nicolettihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10165586645349183994noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9033972324730492979.post-77375396675463898142022-05-25T21:33:00.002-04:002022-05-25T21:33:21.411-04:00 A Guide for Reducing Stress Levels Organically<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"> </span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh6Kr7h3BPIj6FZZZ_01bZbx9-tqpdoTq9ORXWLPrBukK2m7O95nfadGcZyq8NO-Nu-fR3saxjeycT7XZ9oXFPdQL_dUqiaadXuhTsy9SYGgSjjG4xz56WPlFaOMJXctzH0qqa70PkbvruTrkQgppREij45yydhgSxr-LDRfq2ZbGX6uhuvExUsEkKgFw/s960/image.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="638" data-original-width="960" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh6Kr7h3BPIj6FZZZ_01bZbx9-tqpdoTq9ORXWLPrBukK2m7O95nfadGcZyq8NO-Nu-fR3saxjeycT7XZ9oXFPdQL_dUqiaadXuhTsy9SYGgSjjG4xz56WPlFaOMJXctzH0qqa70PkbvruTrkQgppREij45yydhgSxr-LDRfq2ZbGX6uhuvExUsEkKgFw/s16000/image.jpg" /></a></span></div><span style="font-family: verdana;"><br /></span><p></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.4pt;"><br /></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><span style="color: black;">In such a fast-paced
world, people keep looking for ways to lower their stress levels regularly
without much success found long-term. The solutions that were once regarded as
helpful, are now seen as having a potential negative effect on your health and
life.</span><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal;"></p><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">Most people keep
looking for that magic solution, that one activity or ingredient that will help
change their lives for the better. Even though some answers might be logical,
they don't work for everyone and so, people keep searching and searching,
trying out new things and implementing them in their daily life to see what
works. The examples you'll find below, are some of the best ways to reduce
stress levels organically to make your life easier and happier.</span></div><span style="font-family: verdana;"><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div>

<p class="EbH2" style="line-height: normal; text-align: justify;"><span style="mso-fareast-language: FR;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><b>Less caffeine</b><o:p></o:p></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin: 12pt 0in 0in; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><span style="color: black;">The
overconsumption of caffeine can lead to higher levels of anxiety, stress and

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin: 12pt 0in 0in; text-align: justify;"><span style="color: black;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">Switch to only one
coffee a day if you are currently drinking two or try drinking green tea in the
morning to help you make the change easier in the long term.<o:p></o:p></span></span></p>

<p class="EbH2" style="line-height: normal; text-align: justify;"><span style="mso-fareast-language: FR;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><b>CBD</b><o:p></o:p></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin: 12pt 0in 0in; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><span style="color: black;">Another ingredient
you can try to add to your diet organically is CBD. You can find this in the
form of gummies, which taste delicious, and some of the </span><span lang="FR"><a href="https://www.mirror.co.uk/features/best-cbd-gummies-try-uk-26426164" target="_blank"><span lang="EN-US">best CBD gummies</span></a></span><span style="color: black;"> are believed to
help decrease stress levels and anxiety for people who consume them regularly.

<p class="EbH2" style="line-height: normal; text-align: justify;"><span style="mso-fareast-language: FR;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><b>Walk outside often</b><o:p></o:p></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin: 12pt 0in 0in; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><span style="color: black;">Being in contact
with nature will help you become more relaxed and enjoy your surroundings more.

more sunshine, see other people, and get some exercise in. <o:p></o:p></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin: 12pt 0in 0in; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><span style="color: black;">This activity, even

<p class="EbH2" style="line-height: normal; text-align: justify;"><span style="mso-fareast-language: FR;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><b>Meditate</b><o:p></o:p></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin: 12pt 0in 0in; text-align: justify;"><span style="color: black;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">Meditation helps
you become more focused and more grounded; you will learn how to listen to
yourself and to your body more, and you will become more in tune with your
feelings and emotions. This will help you greatly to learn to detect when your
stress levels increase, and then you'll be ready to try some of these
activities and incorporate them in your daily routine.</span></span></p>
<p class="EbH2" style="line-height: normal; text-align: justify;"><span style="mso-fareast-language: FR;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">Pamper yourself occasionally<o:p></o:p></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin: 12pt 0in; text-align: justify;"><span style="color: black;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">Pampering yourself
from time to time will teach you how to love yourself more. Moreover, it will
give you some ‘me time’ that will be very much needed to reconnect with
yourself and find that balance again in your life. Getting a massage or a
pedicure will give you, even if only a few minutes, much deserved relaxing time
for yourself.<o:p></o:p></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin: 12pt 0in; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><span style="color: black;"><b>Conclusion</b></span><b><o:p></o:p></b></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin: 12pt 0in; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><span style="color: black;">In the end, you
have to find something that will suit you and your lifestyle. Reducing stress
levels is fundamental to leading a happier and calmer life, one that will let
you embrace all the new memories you have yet to make.</span><o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><span lang="EN-GB" style="color: black;"><o:p><span style="font-family: verdana;"> </span></o:p></span></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span lang="EN-GB" style="color: black;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">Many people underestimate
just how much there is to think about when planning a wedding. There are so
many options that it will take a while to decide exactly what it is you want
and need, which are potentially two different things, and the cost factor will
come into play as well. Add to this the fact that there are logistics to think
about – the date you choose will have to work for every supplier as well as
every guest – and you can see why it might take some time to get everything
organized. Here are some of the main things to think about when you’re planning
your wedding so you can have a good starting point; everything else can be
worked out later. <o:p></o:p></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span lang="EN-GB" style="color: black;"><o:p><span style="font-family: verdana;"> </span></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><span lang="EN-GB" style="color: black;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">The Money <o:p></o:p></span></span></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span lang="EN-GB" style="color: black;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">Although it might seem
like a boring thing to think about, the fact is that you’ll need to know how
much you have to spend before you start spending anything at all. The last
thing you’ll want is to pay all the deposits and then find you can’t actually
pay the balance. You’ll not only lose the money you already spent, but you’ll
have to start all over again trying to book whatever it was you needed in the
first place. <o:p></o:p></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span lang="EN-GB" style="color: black;"><o:p><span style="font-family: verdana;"> </span></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><span lang="EN-GB" style="color: black;">Therefore, you must have </span><span lang="EN-GB"><a href="https://www.herecomestheguide.com/wedding-ideas/the-ultimate-wedding-budget-breakdown" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">abudget</a></span><span lang="EN-GB" style="color: black;"> in place before you
begin. Once you know how much you have to spend, you’ll know you are booking
the right elements. Sometimes this will mean compromising on certain items, but
it’s better to do this than to try to stretch your budget too far and find
you’re putting yourself in financial difficulties or, as above, not able to pay
for everything in the end. <o:p></o:p></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span lang="EN-GB" style="color: black;"><o:p><span style="font-family: verdana;"> </span></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span lang="EN-GB" style="color: black;"><o:p><span style="font-family: verdana;"><br /></span></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span lang="EN-GB" style="color: black;"><o:p></o:p></span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEikHL-If-ShD5i6V4Y35OcDnulFRJvtiFgi1wYZ99qqTGc1rNqqVtIrvTwfpyYCzBePHrJ5R1lYrSkt1AOeDTUbAcsdp2chCSMGPtgerFz4bSvkp6kuDadJmFUkI-e7HfYi6UjUjtqTFZv_6noo0uQ5n1BBwg1oXH6h2U_0_VDLeEjE2ZBE1-HB-4jbPQ=s905" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="572" data-original-width="905" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEikHL-If-ShD5i6V4Y35OcDnulFRJvtiFgi1wYZ99qqTGc1rNqqVtIrvTwfpyYCzBePHrJ5R1lYrSkt1AOeDTUbAcsdp2chCSMGPtgerFz4bSvkp6kuDadJmFUkI-e7HfYi6UjUjtqTFZv_6noo0uQ5n1BBwg1oXH6h2U_0_VDLeEjE2ZBE1-HB-4jbPQ=s16000" /></a></div><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;"><br /></span><p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><span lang="EN-GB" style="color: black;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">The Venue<o:p></o:p></span></span></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><span lang="EN-GB" style="color: black;">Although most of the
elements of a wedding can be changed quite easily (even if you don’t want to
change them), the venue is one that is crucial to get right. The wedding venue
is the heart of a wedding; it’s where </span><span lang="EN-GB"><a href="https://theriverhouse.com/" rel="" target="_blank">wedding receptions</a></span><span lang="EN-GB" style="color: black;"> take place, it’s where the photographs will happen,
it’s where your guests will need to get to, and of course, it’s where the
ceremony itself will take place. Plus, it’s the part of your wedding planning
that will dictate everything else; it’s likely to be the most expensive
element, and the date your chosen venue is available will determine everything
else that comes afterwards.</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span lang="EN-GB" style="color: black;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">This is why it’s so
important to get the venue right first of all, and it should be the very first
job you undertake when you know you’re getting married. Securing your ideal
venue is a great thing to tick off the list, and it means you can plan
everything else knowing exactly where and when your wedding will take place.</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><span lang="EN-GB" style="color: black;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">The Suppliers <o:p></o:p></span></span></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><span lang="EN-GB" style="color: black;">Once the venue has been
booked, you can move on to finding the right suppliers. Depending on exactly
what you need for your wedding, there could be many different people to deal
with, from caterers to photographers to </span><span lang="EN-GB"><a href="https://www.brides.com/gallery/wedding-dress-shopping-tips" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">dressmakers</a></span><span lang="EN-GB" style="color: black;"> and more. It’s important to know who is doing what,
how much they will cost, and when plans need to be made. When do you need to go
for dress or suit fittings? When do you need to taste the cake options? When do
you need to let the caterer know how many people are coming to the reception?</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span lang="EN-GB" style="color: black;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">A spreadsheet detailing
all of these things and anything else that needs to be considered will help

logistics industry can be very competitive—in order to ensure that you succeed,
you have to ensure that you are offering more than others. Giving customers and
clients more than they wanted (and more than they expected) will help your
business stand out, but sometimes it goes a little deeper than customer
satisfaction. Giving the customer or client the whole package works a whole lot
better and can help you focus on retaining customers and clients. So, what is
this whole package, and how can it help you succeed in logistics? Here are some
important points to keep in mind.</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #201f1e;"><br /></span></div>

dangerous one to work in. Hauling large, oversized loads down the highway, or
moving packages from one container to the next can be dangerous or hazardous
for all involved. Because of these risks and potential hazards, it is important
that safety is paramount to everyone involved, and within all processes, too.
Of course, truckers and </span><span style="border: 1pt none windowtext; font-family: verdana; padding: 0in;">drivers also need to have a company driver safety
program</span><span style="border: 1pt none windowtext; color: #201f1e; font-family: verdana; padding: 0in;"> in
place—such as the one found at </span><span style="font-family: verdana;"><a href="https://www.drivingdynamics.com/" target="_blank"><span style="border: 1pt none windowtext; padding: 0in;">www.drivingdynamics.com</span></a></span><span style="border: 1pt none windowtext; color: #201f1e; font-family: verdana; padding: 0in;">—to ensure that all drivers are

have to guarantee safety, and you have to guarantee the best.</span></div><span style="font-family: verdana;"><span style="color: #201f1e;">

when, and for how long are important factors. Good and effective fleet
management can save your business thousands of dollars, and it can help improve
its levels of efficiency, too. When you focus on fleet management you actively
look at what is working—and what is not. When you can see errors and room for
improvement, you can then focus on making these improvements, which can then benefit
the end-user. </span></div><span style="font-family: verdana;"><span style="color: #201f1e;">

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">When it concerns
your body’s sinuses, most of the time, you can go about as normal without it
affecting any other part of your body. However, when problems with the sinuses
arise, such as sinus infections, they can affect the quality of your daily
life, both awake and asleep. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">With this in mind,
if you have been recently diagnosed with sinus infection or problems, or else
have been experiencing issues with your sinuses for a number of years, continue

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">Essentially, your
sinuses within your body are empty and incredibly small spaces behind both your
forehead and cheekbones, which connect to the inner layers and inside of your
nose.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">Sinus problems and
infections, commonly referred to under the proverbial umbrella term of <span lang="EN-GB"><a href="https://www.health.harvard.edu/diseases-and-conditions/what_to_do_about_sinusitis" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"><span lang="EN-US">sinusitis</span></a></span>, cause problems in the sinuses by making the
linings of your sinuses swell and become larger and irritated. When the lining
of your sinuses becomes swollen, mucus is prevented from draining into the
nasal passages, as well as into your throat, in the correct way.</span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">Endoscopic sinus
surgery is the most common and most effective way to cure sinus problems, and
the procedure will be recommended by your medical doctor as and when
applicable.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">To be accepted for
endoscopic sinus surgery, you will receive both a history check as well as a
thorough physical exam, and for the initial consultation regarding the
potential operation, it is crucial to inform your medical doctor of any and all
treatment you have been given for your sinuses up to this point.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">Before <span lang="EN-GB"><a href="https://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/316953" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"><span lang="EN-US">sinus surgery</span><span lang="EN-US" style="color: windowtext; text-decoration: none;">,</span></a></span> you will have your blood taken within one month of the date of the
operation, and in most cases, either a chest x-ray or an EKG will also be
conducted. Also, during the pre-surgical time, you will be prescribed oral
steroids, and you will be told not to ingest any antibiotics or aspirin. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">It is also
exceedingly important to entirely refrain from smoking for a minimum of three
weeks before your surgery date and to not eat anything from midnight on the day
before your surgery. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">We all need help from
time to time, but the difference between us and our pets is that we are able to
voice when we need help, and our pets have a much more difficult time. At least
when trying to tell us specifically what the problem is.</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">In order to make sure
your pets are happy and healthy, there are some signs that you should keep on
the lookout for, in case they are trying to alert you to a problem and ask you
for your assistance.</span></span></p>
<h2 style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: medium;"><u>Limping and Licking</u></span></h2>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><span style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">When we have a pain in
our tooth it can feel impossible not to keep poking it with our tongue. When
our pets have an injury or an issue on their body, you might find them doing
the same thing. If you notice them </span><span lang="EN-GB"><a href="https://bncpet.com/blogs/news/excessive-licking-in-dogs-why-it-s-a-problem-and-four-ways-to-fix-your-dog-s-itch" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"><span lang="EN-US" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">licking a new spot repeatedly</span></a></span><span style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">, they might be trying to self soothe a pain or
problem. Make sure to check out to see if you can see anything visible and go
from there. <o:p></o:p></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">Limping is a similar
action in the way that they are outwardly telling you that they have hurt
themselves. It could be something simple as some debris in their paw, or
something that requires medical treatment.</span></span></p><h2><span style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US;"><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: small;">

<!--[endif]--><o:p></o:p></span></span></h2>
<h2 style="text-align: justify;"><span style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US;"><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: medium;"><u>Change in Appetite</u></span></span></h2>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">One of the first signs
that something really is not okay with pets is a change in appetite, especially
if your pet is very food motivated. <o:p></o:p></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><span style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">If you find your pet
has gone off their food or are not eating enough, make sure to take them to the

different kinds of approved foods that are gentle on their stomach and get to
help some nutrients in them. Scrambled eggs, rice and chicken is a good
substitute for dog food, whereas fish is worth a try for cats.</span></span></p>
<h2 style="text-align: justify;"><span style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US;"><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: medium;"><u>Lethargy and Excessive Tiredness</u></span></span></h2>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">If your pet is usually
bounding around with energy but begins to slow down, this does not always mean
anything bad. Sometimes it is just old age! However, if your pet is still young
and this happens relatively quickly, you might want to get your pet checked
out. There could be many reasons your pet is struggling with fatigue, but if you
find they are also not enjoying playing or are interested in other activities,

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><span style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">If your pet usually
has a ‘happy go lucky’ personality and is all of a sudden snappy, aggressive or
whiney, this could be a significant sign that </span><span lang="EN-GB"><a href="https://www.thesprucepets.com/top-causes-of-aggression-in-dogs-1117877" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"><span lang="EN-US" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">something is wrong</span></a></span><span style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">. <o:p></o:p></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">It can be a long
process to find out what is wrong if they are not making it apparent what the
issue is, and the best course of action is to take your pet to the vets
immediately for a full examination.</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">It is important to
remember that these signs might not mean anything serious is happening, but get
your pets a checkup, as it is always worth being safe over sorry. <o:p></o:p></span></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; text-align: justify;"><span lang="EN-GB"><span style="font-family: verdana;">Staten Island is a borough of New York City that many
people often overlook. Despite this, there are many great places to buy a
property on Staten Island if you are looking for a new home or buying to
invest. Whether you are interested in seaside living or suburban neighborhoods,
Staten Island has something to offer everyone. Here are the top picks of where
to buy property on Staten Island.<o:p></o:p></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><b><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">The North Shore <o:p></o:p></span></span></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; text-align: justify;"><span lang="EN-GB"><span style="font-family: verdana;">The North Shore of Staten Island is the area that
overlooks New York Harbor. It has beautiful waterfront views and can be a
fantastic place to buy property, particularly if you like boating. The North
Shore also offers access to some great outdoor attractions such as Conference
House Park, Wolfe's Pond Park, and Miller Field. <o:p></o:p></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; text-align: justify;"><span lang="EN-GB"><span style="font-family: verdana;">In addition, the North Shore of Staten Island is
also home to the Snug Harbor Cultural Center and Botanical Garden, one of New
York's most beloved attractions.<o:p></o:p></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><b><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">The South Shore <o:p></o:p></span></span></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><span lang="EN-GB">The </span><span lang="EN-GB"><a href="http://www.gillanihomes.com/south-shore.php" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">South Shore</a></span><span lang="EN-GB">
of Staten Island has a completely different feel than the North Shore. It is
more suburban and residential with tree-lined streets and waterfront homes. The
South Shore is a great place to buy property if you are after a quiet area
where you can relax and enjoy nature. <o:p></o:p></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; text-align: justify;"><span lang="EN-GB"><span style="font-family: verdana;">One of the most popular attractions in the South
Shore is Historic Richmond Town, which consists of several preserved historic
buildings that visitors can tour for free. The Historic Richmond Town is
especially popular with children.<o:p></o:p></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><b><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">The East Shore <o:p></o:p></span></span></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; text-align: justify;"><span lang="EN-GB"><span style="font-family: verdana;">The East Shore is a residential neighborhood located
in the center of Staten Island. It has great access to New York City and offers
a suburban quality of life at an affordable price. The East Shore can be a
great place to buy property if you want to enjoy quick or easy access to New
York City without paying too much for your home.<o:p></o:p></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><b><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">The West Shore <o:p></o:p></span></span></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; text-align: justify;"><span lang="EN-GB"><span style="font-family: verdana;">The West Shore is the least developed area of Staten
Island. It borders New Jersey and consists of mostly suburban neighborhoods
similar to the South Shore. If you want to live somewhere that is quiet and in
nature but still want quick and easy access to New York City, the West Shore
may be the area for you.<o:p></o:p></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><b><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">Borough Park <o:p></o:p></span></span></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><span lang="EN-GB">Borough Park is in the southwest corner of Staten
Island that consists mostly of Orthodox Jewish communities. It can be a
fantastic place to buy property if you are looking for a </span><span lang="EN-GB"><a href="https://www.sortra.com/benefits-of-tight-knit-communities/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">close-knit community</a></span><span lang="EN-GB"> with great schools and a family-friendly
environment. Borough Park also has some great shopping opportunities with many
supermarkets, shops, and restaurants. <o:p></o:p></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><span lang="EN-GB">House prices are high in Borough Park, but there are
many financial options out there these days if you need some help getting over
the line. </span><span lang="EN-GB"><a href="https://sachemlending.com/private-lender-virginia/" target="_blank">Sachem Lending</a></span><span lang="EN-GB"> is a good choice. <o:p></o:p></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><b><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">Mid-Island <o:p></o:p></span></span></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; text-align: justify;"><span lang="EN-GB"><span style="font-family: verdana;">If you are looking to buy property on Staten Island,
there are many great neighborhoods in Mid-Island. There is green space aplenty
in the area, and it is conveniently close to the city without being too crowded
or trafficky. It can be a quiet place where you can relax and enjoy nature yet
still get into the city quickly when necessary.<o:p></o:p></span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; text-align: justify;"><span lang="EN-GB"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><br /></span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; text-align: justify;"><span lang="EN-GB"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><br /></span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; text-align: justify;"><span lang="EN-GB"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><br /></span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; text-align: justify;"><span lang="EN-GB"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><br /></span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; text-align: justify;"><span lang="EN-GB"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><br /></span></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 7.5pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><span style="color: #333333;">In the United States, </span><a href="https://petkeen.com/pet-shipping-safety-statistics/#:~:text=37%25%20of%20pet%20owners%20take,over%20the%20past%202%20years." rel="nofollow" target="_blank"><span style="color: #337ab7;">more than 2 million</span></a><span style="color: #333333;"> pets travel by air each year. Yet, pet
travel by air is a bit more complicated than you may think. <o:p></o:p></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 7.5pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #333333;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">Every airline has a different pet policy,
which means the requirements and prices range. Before you can plan your trip
for you, it’s smart to plan how your pet will get there. <o:p></o:p></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 7.5pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #333333;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">For instance, you may be forced to take a
specific airline, and the fee to bring your pet may end up being more expensive
than your ticket. Having this information beforehand can help you plan your
budget and itinerary to make your travel experience as seamless as possible.<o:p></o:p></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 7.5pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #333333;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">We have compiled a guide to help you learn how
much traveling with your furry companion by air costs, so keep reading
below. <o:p></o:p></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin: 15pt 0in 7.5pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #333333;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><b>What Airlines Accept Pets?</b> <o:p></o:p></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 7.5pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #333333;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">Not all airlines accept pets, so this will
already limit your travel options. However, most major airlines do accept pets,
with significant restrictions, fees, and requirements. <o:p></o:p></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 7.5pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #333333;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">To be the most successful with your pet
travel, plan your trip way ahead of time. <o:p></o:p></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin: 15pt 0in 7.5pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #333333;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><b>American Airlines</b><o:p></o:p></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 7.5pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #333333;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">American Airlines does accept pets on board,
but only as an in-cabin pet, as they do not allow pets in the cargo hold. You
can only travel with a cat or dog, and the pet combined with their pet carrier
cannot exceed 20 pounds. <o:p></o:p></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 7.5pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #333333;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">You must book the pet’s flight with a travel
agent beforehand. You cannot book it online. When you arrive for your flight,
you must check in with the travel agent and pay the pet fee before boarding
your plane.<o:p></o:p></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 7.5pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #333333;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">American Airlines charges a standard $125 fee
per pet carrier each way. You can have a maximum of 2 pets onboard.<o:p></o:p></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 7.5pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #333333;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">Because American Airlines only allows seven
pets onboard each plane at any given time, it’s wise to book your pet’s flight
months in advance. <o:p></o:p></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin: 15pt 0in 7.5pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #333333;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><b>United Airlines</b><o:p></o:p></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 7.5pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #333333;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">United Airlines has a more flexible animal
policy, allowing you to bring cats or dogs in-cabin or in the cargo hold. This
is a great option if you are traveling with a pet that weighs more than 20
pounds.<o:p></o:p></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 7.5pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #333333;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">For pets that will be in the cabin, they also
charge the standard $125 fee per pet carrier each way. There is an additional
$125 charge for each stopover of more than 4 hours in the United States or more
than 24 hours outside of the United States. <o:p></o:p></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 7.5pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #333333;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">There are no specific weight restrictions, but
the pet and their carrier must be able to fit under your seat. <o:p></o:p></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 7.5pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #333333;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">If you are to bring a larger dog or cat that
will be transported in the cargo hold, you must call the airline for fees and
requirements. <o:p></o:p></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin: 15pt 0in 7.5pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #333333;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><b>Delta Airlines</b><o:p></o:p></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 7.5pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #333333;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">Delta Airlines is another excellent option
when flying with a pet because of their flexible policies. <o:p></o:p></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 7.5pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #333333;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">They allow both in-cabin and cargo-hold pets,
so if you have a larger animal, they can be shipped in the cargo hold. For
prices for animals weighing more than 20 pounds, you must contact a travel
agent at Delta. <o:p></o:p></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 7.5pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #333333;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">If you are traveling with animals that weigh
less than 20 pounds, Delta charges the standard $125 fee per carrier each way.
However, because it is per carrier, they allow you to have multiple animals in
one carrier if they can move around and collectively weigh less than 20 pounds.<o:p></o:p></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 7.5pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #333333;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">This could end up saving you a good amount of
money, especially if you have smaller teacup-sized pets. <o:p></o:p></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin: 15pt 0in 7.5pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #333333;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><b>Southwest Airlines</b><o:p></o:p></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 7.5pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #333333;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">Southwest Airlines is one of the cheapest
options when planning your travel with your pet. Like Delta, they allow you to
have multiple animals in your carrier if they together weigh less than 20
pounds. <o:p></o:p></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 7.5pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #333333;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">Their standard fee per carrier each way is
$95, so you could save $30 going with this airline. However, they only allow
in-cabin pets, so if you have animals weighing more than 20 pounds, Southwest
Airlines is not an option.<o:p></o:p></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 7.5pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #333333;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">They also allow only one pet carrier per
person, so if you have two animals that weigh 20 pounds, you’ll need to have
someone else fly with them. <o:p></o:p></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin: 15pt 0in 7.5pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #333333;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><b>JetBlue Airlines</b><o:p></o:p></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 7.5pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #333333;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">JetBlue Airlines is another cheaper option,
with their standard fee per pet each way being $100.<o:p></o:p></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 7.5pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #333333;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">However, they only allow you to have one total
pet that weighs less than 20 pounds when combined with their pet carrier. <o:p></o:p></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 7.5pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #333333;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">They also only allow four total pets onboard
each plane at any given time, which has led to them being booked months out. If
you choose JetBlue, you’ll want to make sure your trip is at least six months
down the road. <o:p></o:p></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin: 15pt 0in 7.5pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #333333;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><b>Traveling With Service Pets</b><o:p></o:p></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 7.5pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #333333;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">Airline travel with service pets is a much
different experience than with pets that are not certified. Many fees are
waived, which means your travel can be a lot less expensive. <o:p></o:p></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 7.5pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #333333;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">The requirements are also loosened up a bit,
depending on your situation. For instance, if you have a dog that is more than
20 pounds, you may be able to have them in the cabin with you if they are
certified as a service pet. <o:p></o:p></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 7.5pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #333333;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">The laws, requirements, policies, and fees are
often changing, so it’s best to check in with your airline to see exactly what
they allow in regards to service animals. <o:p></o:p></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 7.5pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><span style="color: #333333;">If you’d like to look into certifying your pet

<p class="Body" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">Unless you’ve reached the
highest level of seniority in your given profession, there will always be
plenty of people more knowledgeable and experienced than you. Rather than
competitors, these individuals may well be wonderful mentors and teachers,
helping to show you the ropes as the next generation of manager or senior
employee in your field. But how can you find these people and engage with
teachers to make progress in your career? This article sets out to answer that
question, showing you how you’ll locate the best teachers to take your career
to the next level.</span></p>
<p class="Body" style="text-align: justify;"><b><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: medium;">Universities</span></b></p>
<p class="Body" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">There are a litany of brilliant
teachers at universities across the world. But the ones you’re looking for
specifically are those who have spent time in the industry before choosing to
assume a seat as a professor or lecturer at an academic institution. These are
particularly valuable teachers because they can apply what they learned in
their job to how they teach their pupils.</span></p>
<p class="Body" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">This is a prime example of
what’s called experiential learning. <a href="https://online.pointpark.edu/news/experiential-learning-benefits/" target="_blank"><span class="Hyperlink0">What is experiential
learning?</span></a> Well, it’s the
name given to the process of learning not through textbooks and exams but
through personal experience or through the experience of others. Not only do
these teachers feel more inspiring, but they have real-world and hands-on
experiences to share with you to inform your future career choices.</span></p>
<p class="Body" style="text-align: justify;"><b><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: medium;">You Firm</span></b></p>
<p class="Body" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">Meanwhile, there may be mentors
a lot closer to home than you can ask to help you in your career. This is
especially the case in larger firms, where there will be plenty of <a href="https://www.tonyrobbins.com/personal-growth/how-to-get-a-mentor/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"><span class="Hyperlink0">senior managers</span></a> who may be interested in taking you under their
wing and showing you how you can make great strides in your career. The only
way to access these professionals is to ask – and you’ll be surprised at
the reaction you get.</span></p>
<p class="Body" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">Of course, senior managers in
your firm will be busy with their own tasks. So you shouldn’t expect them to
take a great chunk out of their working week to sit down with you and instruct
you on how you can learn on the job. But you may find that a personal contact
will help you in your moments of need – even via a simple email asking for
help.</span></p>
<p class="Body" style="text-align: justify;"><b><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: medium;">Events</span></b></p>
<p class="Body" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">Finally, there are always <a href="https://virtualspeech.com/blog/how-professional-networking-can-help-your-career" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"><span class="Hyperlink0">events</span></a> that you can attend in order to learn from business
leaders and motivational speakers or industry insiders who are willing to share
with you their tips on how to get ahead. These events range from large
conferences to one-to-one tuition classes and everything in between.</span></p>
<p class="Body" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">Finding events such as these is
easy. You can search directly through Google, or you can follow individuals and
training companies on social media so that you’re always up to date on when
certain speakers will be appearing at the lectern. Join mailing lists, too, so
that you’re kept in the loop for future events.</span></p>
<p class="Body" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">Make the most of the people
around you, either through online learning, through senior colleagues, or
through relevant events, in order to make progress in your career. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
