How to...

By Antoinette Durand

In this edition of How to... we're talking about aloe vera. Aloe vera has many medicinal properties. It does way more than treat sun burns. It can treat real burns as well as making bruises disappear. Athlete's foot can be treated with a mix of aloe vera and 10ish drops of tea tree oil.

This goo can also be used for cosmetic purposes, too. Cleopatra rubbed it on her to reduce aging and wrinkles. It can be used to made an exfoliating scrub with only 2 TBSP of aloe vera, 2 TBSP brown sugar, and 1 TBSP of lemon juice. You can apply it twice a day to your face for a few weeks, and your acne should clear up.

Classic Article:Dealing with Stress

By Antoinette Durand

These times are stressful for everyone around the world. Sometimes, I feel like the world is ending and I'm being crushed under the rubble. It's important to maintain a sense of happiness. It's important to feel sad at times, but a complete overwhelming sense of doom- how I frequently feel- isn't healthy.

1. Blast classical music.

Even if Mozart and Vivaldi aren't in your playlist, give them a shot. It's calming to me that even though humans have messed a bunch of stuff up, we're also capable of masterpieces.

2. Bake classic things.

Things like macrons and madelienes are tricky to pull off because of the egg white base. They fall easily and are very tricky to deal with, but things like scones and biscuits make me feel so relaxed because I know that they will turn out.

3. Draw anything.

Whether you use a coloring book or you sketch freehand, drawing really is, in my opinion, the best way to relax. You can express yourself with color. You can do anything with art, defy physics, nature, your problems, anything. Draw yourself, a flower, a scene of night, a forest, the moon. Anything.
