Summary:
1. Stopping a Sneeze: If you want to stop a sneeze, press down on the area right above your upper lip (kind of like giving yourself a finger mustache.)

2. Getting Rid of a Brain Freeze: Press your tongue to the roof of your mouth and it will go away soon after. So the next time you take an excessive slurp of a slushie or smoothie on a hot summer’s day, remember this body hack, and your painful brain freeze will disappear in no time!

3. Touching Your Toes: Try reading a paragraph worth of sentences backward. You might just be able to touch your toes after doing it. Try it out! What have you got to lose?

4. Draining Your Congested Sinuses: Being sick and having a cold is the worst. What’s even worse than being sick is getting all plugged up. Your nostrils are congested, you can’t breathe properly, your mouth is dry from breathing in and out of it all day, and you haven’t had a good night’s rest in days! Well, we may have a solution for you. If you’re sick and want to drain your congested sinuses, switch back and forth between pressing your tongue to the roof of your mouth and pressing a finger in between your eyebrows. Okay, it sounds weird - and you might not want to do it in public, but we swear, it works!

5. Hearing Someone in a Noisy Room: Have you ever wondered what that flap on your ear is and what it’s there for? Well, it’s called a tragus. If you ever need to hear someone next to you while in a noisy room, just press down on it and it will cancel out the peripheral sounds. This could be a great life hack if you’re at a particularly loud concert or are in a crowded subway or room and desperately need to hear what someone else is saying to you.

6. Preventing Heartburn: Lie on your left side so that you don’t get bedtime heartburn after a big meal. Also, stop eating 3-4 hours before you go to bed.

7. Stopping a Nosebleed: To stop a nosebleed, lean your head forward slightly and pinch your nose right above your nostrils for five minutes.

8. Preventing Feelings of Anxiety: Put your thumb in your mouth like you’re sucking on it but instead blow out air, and let your cheeks puff up.

9. Reducing Pain from a Burnt Tongue: Swish some cold water around your mouth It’ll help with the immediate heat in the burned tissue and prevent inflammation.

10. How to Stop Hiccups: To quickly cure the hiccups, inhale deeply, hold it, swallow twice, then exhale through your nose. All gone!

11. Making Going to the Bathroom Easier: Make your poops easier by elevating your knees and feet, so that you look like you’re squatting. It’s supposedly the more natural way for humans to poop.

12. Getting a Song out of Your Head: Got a song relentlessly stuck in your head? Chew gum!

13. Swallowing Those Stubborn Pills: When trying to swallow a pill, put the pill in your mouth and tilt your head forward instead of backward. This will allow the pill to float to the back if your throat, making it much easier for you to swallow it.

14. Suppressing the Urge to Go to the Bathroom: If you really have to go but need to buy some time, try scratching the back of your calf. This can help distract your brain and give you a little bit more time to rush to the bathroom.
