I have a tip to help you take your medications correctly. Taking your medications correctly is an important part of staying healthy. Simple habits can make it much easier to stay on track, such as using a weekly pill organizer, setting reminders on your phone or with a medication app, or keeping your medications in a safe, visible place. Store medicines according to the instructions on the label, and keep an easy-to-read medication list nearby, such as on the fridge or close to where you store your medicines. Let at least one trusted family member or friend know your medication regimen, especially if you may need assistance, and ensure they understand the correct dose and timing. Most importantly, never share prescription medicines with anyone else. A few simple reminders can help you take your medications safely, consistently, and as prescribed, giving them the best chance to work effectively.
Some relaxing joy therapy is just at our reach. Let’s get right to it with the joke of the day, called, “A Matter of Principle.”
During the Middle Ages, an official with a reputation for taking bribes was promoted to a higher position. To prove he had changed his ways, he hung a sign in his office: “I DO NOT TAKE GOLD.” The next morning, Rowan, a local businessman, entered carrying a big bag of 500 shiny gold pieces.
“Can’t you read the sign? I don’t take gold.”
“My apologies.”
As Rowan turned to leave, the official said:
“Wait! I said I don’t take gold. I didn’t say you couldn’t leave it.”?!
