I’ve used this technique for about a year, and I can safely say that it has efficiently transformed my sleeping habits from several hours of struggle to fall asleep, to passing out in a matter of minutes.

It’s a form of Alexander Technique. It’s a technique that was designed for actors to keep their body in ready working condition and give it the best way to perform. This is the method used to calm, and center the body. Once the body is at that point it can perform anything you want it to.

Reblogging for later reference after I tried it earlier today to try to calm down. It actually does help a lot, not just for sleep but if you have problems with anxiety.

My default mental setting is “vibrating intensely in the background.” After doing this, I felt noticeably calm and relaxed - I wasn’t as fixated on my breathing, I wasn’t tense, my movements weren’t jerky and I didn’t feel like I had to be as tense as possible to be under control. 10/10 would recommend.

me gonna try it

dont wanna reblog but insomnia is a bitch for some ppl so heres for my mutuals having trouble sleeping.

Memorising

  • write quotes down on a flashcard and highlight the specific words or phrases that you will be analysing later in the paragraph. Test yourself on the highlighted phrases, then progress to the whole quote. This way, if you have a mind blank of the full quote in the exam, you will still likely remember the small quotes to analyse!
  • Read the information out loud. Try and recite it from memory once you are more confident.
  • Grab a friend and talk them through your essay or essay plan, and get them to tell you if you miss out any key points. This is especially useful if both you and your friend are studying the same topic!
  • Write each of the topic or subheading titles on a small piece of paper, fold it up and put all the pieces of paper in a box. Set a timer for 5 or 10 minutes (or however long you would have in a test situation), then pick one topic from the box and write as much as possible about the topic from memory. Once the time is up, check what you have written. You will be surprised at how much you are able to remember!
  • Make sure you know which historians, critics etc. you will be referencing to in each essay. To be able to learn the quotes, you first must know the name of the person you’re quoting!
  • Flashcards are your best friend for memorising! Separate these by topic rather than having a big pile of flashcards as it makes revision much easier.

Prioritising

  • Thin out your hefty lever arch folder into an A4 ‘revision folder’ This should include the final copy of the essays you’ve written, a list of all the dates, acts and quotations you’re using, questions from past papers and any other handouts you find particularly useful! This makes it much easier to find the specific things you need rather than raking through millions of irrelevant worksheets!
  • In the run up to the exam, practice essays under exam conditions (including timing!) Print out essay prompts on small pieces of paper and choose one, then write that essay as if it came up in the exam.
  • Train your hand to write fast but semi-legibly. Unfortunately pretty handwriting is not something that is achievable in essay based subjects!
  • Unless it really helps you, rewriting notes is not the most effective way of revising essay writing!
  • Choose quotes that can be used in multiple essays so you don’t have as much to learn!

Structuring

Introduction

  • An introduction for an essay discussing a novel, film etc. usually follows the TAGLS structure. This is Title, Author, Genre, Link to essay question and Summary of the plot.
  • A basic introduction for a subject like history usually has a basic structure of Context, Line of Argument and Factors you will be arguing.
  • Your summary of the plot or background context should not retell the story! I usually limit this to under 5 sentences!
  • Generally, don’t say “In this essay I will…”

Main Body

  • A basic English structure is: Topic Sentence, Evidence, Evaluation and Link back to Question.
  • It is not always necessary to have a quotation 100% accurate, the examiner wants to see your ability to analyse the novel, not your ability to memorise quotes!
  • Short quotations are usually included in a sentence and marked by quotation marks, whereas long quotations are indented into the paragraph.
  • Always unpack your evidence! There is no point in knowing the quote and just leaving it hanging at the end of a sentence. Do this in a way that concisely puts your argument across by commenting on the technique or what the point shows, and mention connotations of words and images.
  • Link back your evidence to the essay question throughout!
  • For history essays I usually structure my paragraphs with a few sentences of knowledge (where I mention any acts or dates) Analysis of why the point was good, and then argue the other side. Usually counter-analysis starts with a historian’s viewpoint and then develops into a “this shows that” point.

Conclusion

  • Sum up the basic points of your essay! Usually I write one sentence to sum up each paragraph.
  • Sometimes it is OK to start with “in conclusion”, but try to think of more inventive ways to word it!
  • End the essay with a punchy sentence! (AKA a mic drop moment)

Other things

  • Note down any websites you reference as you go! This makes your life wayyyy easier.
  • Keep a post-it note on or near your computer with the referencing structure on it!
  • Print out a copy of your essay and mark it yourself according to the marking guide before turning it in. It’s easier to proofread when it is on paper in front of you rather than a screen!

Surviving

  • Essay based subjects can be very overwhelming, especially if you are expected to memorise multiple essays (SQA Higher History I’m looking at you) but try not to let this get to you!
  • Starting well in advance makes it much easier when it comes to the exam!
  • If you receive a question that you really don’t know how to answer, don’t panic!Take a breath and see if you could change the wording question to suit you. It’s better to write a basic essay than nothing at all!
  • Don’t be afraid to take a night or so off from essay based revision! It is very intense and your brain needs time to process!

Good luck to everyone in their essay-based subjects this school year! Essay subjects require hard work and dedication but don’t push yourself too much! If you put in the effort you will achieve great things!

I swear for the life of me I can’t find him in the second one. But I feel he’s there, I just feel it

So a thing you can do in this situation is go into Photoshop and have it live compare two images. Example:

Top Layer was the original, second layer was the one in question, and third is them subtracted and you can see his shirt pop out against the black.

But this one…

Nothing. Absolutely nothing. Those two images are EXACTLY the same but I can feel him there. He’s got to be there

The internet could change next week, and not in a good way

You may have heard about the efforts in Europe to reform copyright law. The debate has been ongoing in the European Parliament for months. If approved next week, these new regulations would require us to automatically filter and block content that you upload without meaningful consideration of your right to free expression. 

We respect the copyrights and trademarks of others, and we take all reports seriously to ensure that your creative expression is protected. We make this clear in our Community Guidelines. There’s already a legal framework that works and is fair: Today we take down posts and media that contain allegedly infringing content when we receive a valid DMCA (Digital Millennium Copyright Act) takedown request. We also provide clear-cut ways for people to fight back if they believe their removed content was not a true violation. These instances are monitored and reported and live in our biannual transparency report

The suggestion to use automated filters for issues of copyright is short-sighted at best and harmful at worst. Automated filters are unable to determine whether a use should be considered “fair use” under the law and are unable to determine whether a use is authorized by a license agreement. They are unable to distinguish legitimate parody, satire, or even your own personal pictures that could be matched with similar photographs that have been protected by someone else. We don’t believe that technology should replace human judgment. Tumblr is and always has been a place for creative expression, and these new regulations would only make it harder for you to express yourself with the freedom and clarity you do so now. 

If you access Tumblr from Europe and want to act, you can find more information on saveyourinternet.eu

Please reblog this as much as you reblogged the posts about Net Neutrality. 

If Article 13 is approved, European People might be basically banned from uploading any fan content. 

You won’t get new fanfics from people in Europe.

You won’t get new gifs from people in Europe.

You won’t get new fanart from people in Europe.

Because they’ll be automatically filtered and blocked!

We might leave Tumblr and other fandom pages.

And if we’re getting all our content blocked? 

You might lose some of your favourite followers/mutuals.

You might not get to read the rest of that fic you’re dying to read - simply because the writer lives in the wrong country.

So do whatever you can to help us stop this.

Reblog this.

CONTACT YOUR REPRESENTATIVES TO TELL THEM YOU DON’T WANT ARTICLE 13 TO BE APPROVED IF YOU’RE EUROPEAN! DO IT VIA THE HOMEPAGE

ALRIGHT. LISTEN UP.

So recently, I got calls from the phone number, (937) 353-8319. They claim to be a job service, and one of their “employees”, Carrigan, is friends with whoever the call recipient is, and that Carrigan has recommended you for this $15.00/h “job”. I also got a text message from (937) 607-1493, claiming to be Carrigan, and that they need stuff to “win a scholarship”. I do not know anyone by the name of Carrigan and I know very well that this is a very dangerous scam. If you receive a call from a number, and they ask you if you would like a job for $15.00/h, HANG UP IMMEDIATELY. If you accept the “job” offer, and you go in for an interview, they will give you a drugged bottle of water and you will wake up somewhere you don’t want to be. These phone calls & texts are from a human trafficking service, and if you oblige to them, you will be sold to people and you will be raped, no doubt about it. So PLEASE PLEASE DO NOT ANSWER THESE CALLS OR TEXTS. I have listened to the voicemails, and allowed my dad to do the same, and he learned that anyone offering a $15.00/h “job” is a human trafficker. PLEASE SIGNAL BOOST THIS ALL OVER TUMBLR

Okay, I am reblogging this because it is relevant again. I got another call from a 353 number. Not the exact same number, but I know that it is a trafficker because it’s 353 just like the last one. I also want this to signal boost so PLEASE REBLOG THIS.

Why are people deleting the captions though I had to search for what the pictures meant don’t do that

a side note,  because theyre very popular around the DMV, If you ever see a sign with something akin to ‘free debt erasure’ ‘15/h job’ etc and ONLY A PHONE NUMBER, ignore it. tear it down if you can, because those are well known scams and sex-trafficking baits.do not, by any means, call or respond to these messages. do not let your friends do it. do not.

THIS IS IMPORTANT AF THANK Y’ALL HOLY SHIT

Oklahoma is one of the worst states as far as human trafficking, so thank y’all so fucking much. That’s literally my life and the lives of everyone I know that y’all just saved. Thank you. Thank you thank you thank you
