BEATING HOLIDAY STRESS
I can vouch for this one:
"Dive into a good book. "Reading can have a tranquilizing effect," says Timothy Shanahan, PhD, a professor of urban education and reading at the University of Illinois at Chicago. "I usually read before going to bed—it stops my mind from racing and allows me to get away from myself for a few moments, which helps me relax and sleep well."

GOT SINUS PAIN?
Well, get ready to think of your favorite song.  Why?  Read on:
"Sinus infections make millions of people miserable each year, especially during cold and flu season. People with asthma and allergies may be especially prone to chronic sinusitis. Now some researchers have proposed a surprising remedy for avoiding sinus pain, headaches and congestion, writes Anahad O’Connor in this week’s “Really?” column:

"Keeping the sinuses healthy and infection-free requires ventilation — keeping air flowing smoothly between the sinus and nasal cavities. And what better way to keep air moving through the sinuses and naval cavity than by humming a tune? Studies show that humming helps increase airflow between the sinus and nasal cavities, which could potentially help protect against sinus infections."

Who would have thought it...

WHAT NOT TO SAY IN AN INTERVIEW
I know many of us in this community either are now, or will at some point in the next year, think of seeking a new job, a promotion, etc.  So the interview becomes crucial.  Here are two things from an article I found today that are really important concerning what to say in interviews:
"YES. YES. YES. NO.  Unless the interviewer asks you if you're so-and-so here for the nine-o'clock interview, you shouldn't be using one-word answers. An interview is your time to convince the employer that you have the qualifications for the job.  Even if the questions don't seem open-ended, answer them as if they are. You don't need to drone on and on, but use every chance you get to prove why you're the right person for the job.  "You want to use as much color and detail as possible when describing your background, experience and your professional journey, but without being long winded because, in reality, it's about your skill set and your valuable experience and expertise. Be specific: use names, dates and places," Murphy says."

And also:
"An interview is not the place to embellish your work or personal experience. If an interviewer asks you about something you don't have experience with, fess up and tell them how willing and able you are to learn new things.  If you claim to be something you're not, chances are you'll be found out sooner or later ... maybe not during the interview process, but when you find yourself lost in the middle of China a few months after landing the job, your gig will be up.  "Don't make up anything about what you've done that isn't true. It's too easy these days to get busted for anything like that. And they are looking at anything and everything," Murphy says."

And I say:  go ahead and tell your interviewer about your Moebius Syndrome.  Don't make a big deal about it.  Don't go on and on and dwell on it.  But you know others, who don't know you, who haven't met you, wonder about it.  So clear it up.  Be honest.  Show that you're not afraid and that you can handle anything they throw at you; and you can demonstrate it by "handling" the question of your Moebius in a quick, professional, effective way.  Point out to your interviewer, by the way, that if they hire someone with Moebius they will be adding to the, ahem, "DIVERSITY" of their company.  And isn't that something everyone wants?
