According to the Harvard Health Blog, start by lightly putting your thumb and forefinger on either side of the top of your nose, then slide them down until you feel the "drop off," and you reach the cartilage. Pinch there, so you're holding both sides of your nose against the septum in the middle, and hold for about five minutes. 这样鼻血就止住啦~ 7. To calm down when you're feeling extremely nervous, put your thumb in your mouth, close your lips, and try to blow out air, letting your cheeks puff up.
Don't do it too hard, or for too long, but it's a vagal maneuver that could help slow your heartbeat. 8. When you accidentally burn your tongue on hot coffee or tea, swish with very cold water (but don't suck on ice).
Super-hot foods and drinks can cause a first-degree burn that damages the delicate membrane lining your mouth. You generally don't need to seek medical attention for a mouth burn from hot foods or drinks. The first thing you should do is swish with cold water to reduce heat in your skin and decrease swelling. In the following days you should stick to a soft, bland diet and keep your mouth clean. 9. To quickly cure your hiccups: Deeply inhale, hold it, swallow twice, then exhale through your nose.
10. To hear someone talking next to you in a loud room, lightly pull back on the little flaps on both your ears — then push them in. Those flaps are called the "tragus" — by holding it in, you block out a lot of the peripheral sounds, making it easier to hear the person right next to you.
