That said, as is the case with most solutions, exercise doesn’t work for everyone. In some cases, working out can actually trigger or intensify anxiety—which is, we assume, the opposite of what we all want. Of course, everyone is different (surprise!), which makes this topic a bit tricky.

In the case of seeing a tornado in the distance, Loewenberg explains, you’re wondering if some real-life stressor (symbolized by the tornado, in this case) is going to catch up to you.

The quality of giving is not, “I’ll go without so you can have,” but is more like, “I have something I’d like to share with you.” The act of real giving evokes a sense of receiving at the same time—it is very enjoyable to share what we have with others, especially with the intention of helping another person out....
This phrase traces back at least a century, with one of the first written records of it coming from a 1907 article in the Leicester Chronicle newspaper in England. “…My friend has what old country women call ‘a Green Thumb,’ that is to say, the gift of making anything and everything grow,” writes Ms. O’Conor Eccles. “Plants will endure liberties at her hands which a less affectionate, though more scientific gardener could not attempt....
