Hello guys, learn how to swim if you have no experience in swimming and have never been in the water before.This write-up will take you from a total beginner to someone who can feel comfortable and safe around and in the water. When starting to learn how to swim, it is best if you are not alone, but you have someone around you who can keep an eye on you, especially when you start getting into the deep end of the pool. It is also easier and more comfortable to learn this in a pool or a calm lake than in the ocean, where there are waves. It's also more comfortable if you have a mask or swimming goggles so you can see underwater. That way, it will feel less claustrophobic, so let's start with number one. You should always remember that as long as you have full lungs, you are naturally floating in the water, so try this: go to the shallow end of the pool where you can stand, take a deep breath, and curl your body up like a ball, when doing this you will feel that you are floating and staying at the surface of the water now i want you to breathe out all the air you have in your lungs and you will see that your body is sinking to the bottom so now you know that as long as your lungs are full you will stay at surface if you breathe out your body will sink in the beginning it can feel a bit claustrophobic you should always know that at any point you can just stand up and you are safe so what i want you to do is take a breath curl up to a ball just float in the water for five to ten seconds then you stand up you take some breaths breathe a little bit relax and then you try to do the same thing again just have your face in the water floating do this until you feel comfortable having your face in water and just floating around when you feel comfortable floating in this position you can try to stretch out your body and float with a stretched out body like i'm doing right now when you're able to do that you have mastered the floating part step number two we will now learn how to kick to move forward in the water there is three parts to the kick one pulling the legs in two flexing your legs while kicking out and three collecting your feet together and stretching your ankles to learn and get comfortable with doing the movement you can hold on to the edge of the pool while practicing to pull your legs in kicking and collecting again and again it will take some practice to get the move automated so it feels natural but it's not very hard when you feel like you got the movement right you can grab hold of a floating board or anything that floats even a big empty water bottle with a cap on will do this is to keep your upper body and head above water while you practice the kicks when moving forward in the water when this works okay for you you can try to float on your back without holding on to anything and just practice the kicks if you like you don't have to hold your breath while swimming on your back just take smaller breaths and remember as long as you don't breathe out all the air in your lungs you will float when this feels comfortable you can move on to step three which is using your arms you can start practicing the movement while standing with just your head above the water stretch your arms out forward move them around while holding them straight and then collecting them you put your palms together and stretch your arms out over your head again you should also twist your palms outward when pushing the water around your body when you get the movement you can try to lay on your belly stretch out your body and use your arms to move forward you use the arms to push your body forward and up so you don't sink in between the breaths with some practice you should be able to do this with no problem In step 4, we will combine using arms and legs. You will now pull your legs in and kick with your legs while you stretch out your arms. As you collect your feet, you start moving your arms around and glide forward in the water. You repeat the motion, and you are now swimming.
In the beginning, it will probably be most comfortable to swim with your head above water at all times, but when you get good at it, you can try to put your head down in the water as you start kicking, and when you pull your arms around, they will push your upper body with your head out of the water. When swimming like this, you breathe in when your head is above water, then breathe out while your head is under water, and as your head comes out of the water, you quickly take a deep breath and repeat the motion of breathing out while you have your head under water. This is so that your body is more stretched out and you will be able to swim faster than if you keep your head above water all the time, and that is all there is to get you started with swimming the breast stroke before we move on to the deep end of the pool where you can't stand or touch the bottom. You should feel comfortable swimming around without touching the bottom for a while. It can also be smart to learn how to thread water and how to float on your back so you won't panic. I also suggest you take a swimming course. That way, you will learn how to swim from a swimming coach who will help you with your technique, and you will be a better swimmer who is able to enjoy the water more.

What does death feels like
There is one thing that each living individual will insight: biting the dust. This peculiarity is so recognizable yet something we have hardly any familiarity with. The sensation of death is an idea that has been being referred to starting from the start of humankind and one that cutting edge science is consistently attempting to find. So what does it seem like to pass on abroad? To start with, we really want to investigate what demise truly is. Biting the dust is the finish of all fundamental capabilities inside the human body, where our pulse, cerebrum action, and breathing all halted. Everybody encounters demise in an unexpected way. What we cannot deny is that once you're dead, your life in this body is over perpetually, yet is this generally the situation? You've most likely caught wind of those individuals who have passed on and reawakened, and when they conscious, they say they saw a reason to have some hope or that they drifted over their bodies, watching the specialists wildly work to keep them alive. People are entranced at this point scared by the idea of death. A great deal of that interest comes from the way that a large portion of us can't understand its whole; it's the feeling of dread toward the obscure, as we don't have the foggiest idea how upsetting or difficult it will accompany the assistance of current science. We are proceeding to foster a more inside and out viewpoint on what it could feel like to bite the dust. There are numerous ways individuals can pass on, and each individual will kick the bucket in an unexpected way. Each individual will have an alternate encounter. You might be adequately unfortunate to have diabetes, disease, or even an inadvertent mishap. Albeit every one of these causes is unique, they all share something for all intents and purpose: a heart that quits thumping. A human heart is central to remain alive. The key guideline might make sense of why the most widely recognized reason for death comes from the heart neglecting to siphon blood around the body. Measurements show that coronary illness is the main source of death around the world, with an expected 30 percent of individuals passing on from related sicknesses. Coronary illness alludes to any condition influencing the heart, for example, a respiratory failure or a stroke. The heart is a muscle about the size of your clench hand that siphons blood around your body to keep you alive, yet blood can't be siphoned on the off chance that there's a development of plaque causing restricted or obstructed veins. Generally speaking, this is known as a coronary episode. Albeit a cardiovascular failure might appear to cause passing quickly, normal admonition signs will generally seem a couple of days or even a long time before a coronary episode. May set off electrical irregularities that can prompt an unexpected heart failure, and without quick CPR, you would be dead inside a couple of moments. A great many people could do without to consider it, yet close to the more ordinary approach to kicking the bucket with the friends and family around you, there are really anguishing and difficult ways of dieing, for example, consuming alive and suffocating. Envision you're remaining in a seething fire. The aggravation you feel toward the beginning is by a long shot the best, as the discharge gradually fries your nerves. Your muscles and mind capabilities begin to debilitate. This keeps on deteriorating until you fall oblivious from the absence of oxygen your body is getting. In any case, by this point, you are either oblivious, going to pass on, or currently dead. The aggravation alone would cause a deficiency of cognizance immediately. Consider the possibility that it seemed like you were consuming. Yet, from within, individuals have portrayed the sensation of breathing in water as a copying sensation inside their chest. It is a human sense not to inhale submerged, yet when you suffocate and intervene pressure, frenzy and inconvenience are brought about by an absence of oxygen. Alarm from running out of air is depleting, which rapidly makes you run out of energy and hail the water. The water then floods the lungs and closures any exchange of oxygen into the blood. It's an intriguing and unwanted approach to passing on. In occasions of a sudden reason for death, adrenaline assumes a major part in the actual Sensations felt by the individual set forth plainly quicker passings are frequently less excruciating; be that as it may, when the reason for death is more progressive, a cycle called dynamic kicking the bucket happens. At the point when a passing happens more than a couple of hours or days, your faculties begin to blur in a specific request. Craving and thirst are the primary faculties to go. Sooner or later, you begin to lose the capacity to talk, trailed by the capacity to see. Hearing and contact are ordinarily the last faculties to go. In any case, logical scientists have proof that certain individuals might have the option to hear while in a lethargic state. In states like being in a trance like state or toward the finish of your life, information shows that somewhat recently before death, kicking the bucket synapses can answer sound even in an oblivious state, so does that mean your cerebrum is as yet dynamic when you're dead? The hour of death is regularly recorded as the second the heart quits thumping. This by and large suggests that the remainder of your body will never again get a blood supply to support the cells of organs, for this situation, the mind, in spite of a few Examinations have shown that your cerebrum actually works even after death, so would you say you are mindful when you're dead? At the point when you bite the dust, you are basically caught inside your own body with synapses that are as yet dynamic, albeit this may just last a couple of moments. It's odd to believe that your body might bite the dust, yet not your mind. At the point when the heart quits siphoning, there is an absence of blood stream to the mind, which causes shivering. Sensations in the body, tipsiness, and a sensation of outrageous hot or cold temperatures all while your vision will begin to go and consciousness of your general surroundings will lessen. After some time, you'll be in an oblivious state and will ultimately bite the dust. One out of five individuals whose hearts quit thumping will be resuscitated. These are frequently alluded to as brushes with death. A brush with death is a surprising episode that happens near the precarious edge of death and afterward gets transferred by the individual when they recuperate. These encounters recorded will more often than not be things they have found in burrows prompting a splendid light, profound experiences with the ocean, these friends and family, and different things that appear to be otherworldly according to a logical viewpoint. These things are not really undeniable, yet how is it that they could be? All things considered, they are just something that that individual themselves can observer. In 1981, 28-year-old Scott Drummond went on a skiing outing to Utah with a couple of his companions. At the point when he was lining for the lift, out of nowhere, a woman skiing down the slant ran into him, barely caring about it. He kept on skiing until the end of the day. At the point when he was going home, he removed his glove and saw that his thumb had been totally torn out of its attachment. He realized this would require some clinical consideration, so he was taken to the closest clinic, where he was booked for routine medical procedure on his hand. While he was lying in the working theater, he was completely mindful of his environmental factors. Scott heard a medical caretaker communicating worry as it was her most memorable time helping conduct the medical procedure. During the activity, something turned out badly, and the following thing he knew, he was over his own body, watching the frenzy unfurl. It was only after this point that he understood he had passed on. He then, at that point, depicted an encounter strolling calmly through a field of long grass with a major white cloud in front of him. As he strolled nearer to the cloud, out of nowhere he was watching a video of his life, from the day he was brought into the world to his snapshot of death. As of now, he stirred. He had been clinically dead for 20 minutes and reawakened. He noticed that his apprehension about death evaporated after this experience. Brushes with death are the nearest thing we need to understanding what it really feels like to pass on. We're actually looking at whatever point and anyway we can to find the response, whether that is through logical exploration or through standing by listening to individuals like Scott describe their direct involvement in death and what it seems like. Demise is an actual interaction that changes over an unusual period of time. At the point when you kick the bucket, you develop more fragile and more fragile, you become sluggish, and you lose your hunger. At the point when you don't eat or drink, you don't experience the ill effects of sensations of thirst or appetite the manner in which any solid individual would. heart and significant organs start to fizzle, and your mind closes down. Yet, what really happens when your mind closes down when you're alive? Your synapses are continually electrically charged, and when you pass on, these synapses burn out because of an absence of oxygen. With no oxygen, there is no energy, and with no energy, your body passes on right now of death. There is an eruption of energy delivered by cells that endures somewhere in the range of 30 and 180 seconds. The mind conveys a message to the heart, making the heart beat conflictingly and at last making harm the organ. So regardless of whether you could recuperate from the snapshot of death, your heart wouldn't work and your entire body closes down. Yet, recall, everybody bites the dust in an unexpected way, and it's beyond difficult to portray what passing feels like for every person. Yet, what we cannot deny is that anyway genuinely agonizing it will be, it fluctuates. There are a few passings where torment is inescapable, and there is some place a patient simply goes downhill and disappears with less misery. Having a sickness related with your aggravation doesn't mean you'll essentially have a difficult demise. The vast majority who pass on from serious sicknesses will more often than not need drug, and as a rule with that prescription, it works to not forestall demise however to lighten the side effects, assisting with decreasing agony and furnishing them with a serene and agreeable demise. at the point when you become too frail to even consider hacking or swallow you might see a clamor beginning to create at the rear of your throat the commotion can sound profoundly upsetting and it might seem like the patient is enduring however supposedly the individual passing on isn't enduring by any means as a matter of fact clinical scientists accept that this peculiarity which is generally called a final breath presumably damages or causes no distress at all it is the human instinct to scrutinize the obscure and to settle the riddles of Life interest and craving for investigation.
