Body Hacks

Men's Health has a neat little list of tricks to help get past every-day annoyances.

Here's the one I've found most useful so far:
5. Clear your stuffed nose!

Forget Sudafed. An easier, quicker, and cheaper way to relieve sinus pressure is by alternately thrusting your tongue against the roof of your mouth, then pressing between your eyebrows with one finger. This causes the vomer bone, which runs through the nasal passages to the mouth, to rock back and forth, says Lisa DeStefano, D.O., an assistant professor at the Michigan State University college of osteopathic medicine. The motion loosens congestion; after 20 seconds, you'll feel your sinuses start to drain.
Most of the rest of the tips are solutions to problems I'm not going to go out and make for myself. Read on and you'll understand.
