Step away from your screens. After a long stressful day, I'm often tempted to unwind with some TV time. But now I try taking some time away from my screens first. It can improve your sleep and boost your mood. Instead, you can read or have a short walk or take part in other activities.

Spending time with your pets can be a great way to slow down and put your mind at ease. It can decrease your blood pressure and help you manage anxiety or depression. When I'm feeling stressed. I'll watch the squirrels in my backyard.

Tend to your plants. One day my friend left a spider plant sprout on my front stoop and I decided to try my hand at being a plant parent once again. I was surprised by the effect it had on me. It gave me a chance to step away from my desk and move around. And there were even more benefits I didn't take into account!

In a 1992 University of Pittsburgh study, researchers had four women attend a number of different classes. Their attendance varied: one woman might attend every class; a different woman might attend only a few. What didn't vary was their behavior. None of the women spoke in class or spoke to other students.

At the end of the term, students were asked which woman they liked best. Who "won"? Women who attended the highest number of classes. According to the researchers, "Mere exposure had weak effects on familiarity, but strong effects on attraction and similarity." Or in non-researcher-speak: If I see you frequently, I naturally like you more. That's the power of showing up.

Knowing someone will show up in the future also matters. In a 1967 University of Minnesota study, researchers gave study participants profiles of two people and told them that one would be a partner in future discussion groups. When asked, the participants said they liked their future partner more. Even though the profiles were almost identical.

Want your team or your customers to like you more? Show up. Drop in. Drop by. Send a brief note. Make a quick phone call. You don't have to say or do much. Then, be consistent in your behavior. In time, people will expect you to drop in or drop by, whether in person or virtually. Anticipating future contact will make them like you more.

"Sleep problems in children are routinely linked with lower social competence and more problems in peer (同龄) relationships, but we really don't understand what drives these associations," reports Alfano, assuming that the answers might partly lie in the ways children's faces express emotions when tired.

To test this theory, Alfano and colleagues examined 37 children between the ages of 7 and 11 during two in-lab emotional assessments: one when children were well-rested and the other after two nights of partial sleep restriction. During these assessments, children viewed positive(think kittens and ice cream) and negative (think getting a shot and fierce dogs) pictures on a computer screen while a camera recorded their facial expressions. Participants' parents provided reports of their child's social functioning at that time and approximately two years later.

"As we suspected, children who displayed less positive facial expressions in response to pleasant images when sleep was restricted were reported to have more social problems two years later, even when controlling for earlier social problems." said Alfano.

Although concurrent relationships between sleep-based changes in facial expressions and social problems were not found, Alfano suggests that this may be due to developmental differences in social behavior and peer relationships.

"For younger children, more clearly-shown behaviors such as sharing and taking turns may be more important for friendships than facial expressions. However, emotional expression becomes more important with age, explains Alfano.

The results indicate poor sleep quality in childhood forecasts later socio-emotional problems and also indicate the importance of studies exploring how sleep affects many aspects of children's mental health and well-being.

Maggie was an average teenager who often felt invisible among her peers (同龄人). She felt like she was an outsider. School, in particular, was a source of anxiety for her.

When she was depressed, she would hide in her small garden. But the plants there never seemed to thrive (繁茂). It was always a disappointment, and she felt discouraged. "I am just a loser," she thought to herself.

One day, while visiting a gardening website, Maggie discovered an exciting smart device called "GreenThumb." It claimed to help even the most inexperienced gardeners grow amazing plants. Interested, she decided to give it a try.

As soon as Maggie received the GreenThumb device and unboxed it, she carefully followed the set up steps, and within minutes, GreenThumb was activated and began to scan (扫描) the garden. Imagine having a cool device that tells you exactly what the plants need — like a personal plant caretaker! It reminds you to water, gives you tips on when to feed your plants, and even warns you about diseases. GreenThumb was just like a friend who always cared and helped.

During a lunch break at school, some classmates began discussing the latest events that had happened. Maggie wanted to share GreenThumb with others, too. But her voice was soon drowned out by louder voices. The conversation soon shifted to music, with each person talking about their favorite song or artist. Maybe they didn't hear her. Or they were just uninterested. She sank into silence, feeling unseen and unheard again. "I'll show you what I can do with GreenThumb," she said to herself with determination.

Every day after school, Maggie couldn't wait to take care of her garden. She spent countless hours in her garden tending to each plant. At first, she strictly followed GreenThumb's instructions. As time went by, she found her own talent in gardening and added some creative ideas to make her garden unique.

In Caoxian county, Shandong, hanfu workshops are innovating traditional designs. Li Zhen, entrepreneur, explained that while classic hanfu's length made summer sales slow, (shorten) styles like half-skirts now meet warm-weather demand. "We refined designs through online consultations," she added.

As an e-commerce and hanfu center, Caoxian is transforming summer a peak season. At Youai Yuncang hanfu center, a nameless dress sold out (instant). "Its lightweight, fold-free design suits all ages for daily wear," said Li Zhen. As one of the Hanfu (enthusiast), she praised summer-friendly horse-faced skirts: "They're stylish and breathable."

The neo-Chinese style, combining historical elements with modern fashion, (fascinate) youth in recent years. During graduation season, Li Zhen cooperated with universities to integrate hanfu patterns into academic uniforms. " (wear) these clothes at cultural sites makes me feel part of a classical painting," shared a Shanghai visitor.
