Many people are not supposed to be poor, they are created to have abundant wealth, success, advancement, but still they are in the field of poverty and lack.

When you are poor, the spirit of poverty works in your life. There are many powerful self-deliverance prayers to destroy the spirit of poverty in your life and make you discover prosperity, success, blessings, breakthrough, wealth, miracle, etc. All these and many more are included in this article.

Causes of poverty.

– Bad Education

– Natural disaster

– Bad political government,

– Embezzlement of government funds by officials.

– Low skills

There is no excuse for any Christian to be poor, as Almighty God has provided us with everything we need to use in our favor. God made us for eternal success, blessings, advancement, etc. He gave us Brain, intelligence to turn around any situation or difficulty, abundant life and the constitution that is the Bible, the word of God to help us reach our God-given wealth. However, Christians are supposed to be shining examples of divine prosperity, but often the opposite is true.

Christians can be poor for the following reasons:

They have abandoned the work of God for the work of the flesh, pursuing the things of the world instead of the things of God.

They have abandoned soul winning and evangelism.

They put their personal affairs first, God second or last.

They have forgotten that God is the one who gives power to get riches, not with power or strength.

They do not give or help people in need.

Whether you accept it or not, the devil is desperate to make sure you don’t prosper, the world is a battlefield and you must fight to win your freedom. Poverty is waging war against you, against your prosperity, advancement, wealth, miracle, you can name it. It is a battle that you must win, if not, you will never be able to appropriate everything that God has reserved for you or even occupy your throne of glory and honor. Nothing ruins life like poverty. The most humiliating, frustrating and deadly bondage is poverty. The prayer points in this book are carefully focused to destroy the devil and quickly get out of poverty.

Before going to the prayer session it is necessary to discover who is poverty.

Scriptures: Proverbs 6:11 So your poverty will come like one who travels, and your need like an armed man.

Thus will your poverty come like a thief or like one who travels [with slowly but surely approaching steps] and you love like an armed man [making you helpless].

The spirit of poverty steals your blessings, breakthroughs, successes, and miracles.

Then poverty will pounce on you like a bandit; scarcity will attack you like an armed robber.

Poverty is more than you think, it is not an experience that you should go through, just keep in mind that Poverty is a Spirit.

Hello everyone,

Although it is normal to have a clear discharge from time to time. If you have white vaginal discharge, then you have an infection.

A clear discharge helps clean, lubricate, and keep the vagina free of germs. In most cases, this will happen before and after your menstrual period.

A normal clear discharge can change in consistency and appearance for certain reasons. You may be ovulating, pregnant, or breastfeeding. The ph level in your vagina could be altered and cause a normal discharge to appear different. This could be from deodorant soaps, douches, or perfumed body sprays.

A white vaginal discharge is most commonly associated with the symptoms of a yeast infection. This can have a different consistency for everyone, from very thin to extremely thick. However, a light yellow to dark yellow almost brownish discharge means that you most likely have a bacterial infection.

Usually, the severity of the infection will determine the depth and texture of the white vaginal discharge. A thin discharge is probably a mild infection with a larger infection having the consistency of cottage cheese. A mild infection can go away very easily, but a thick, white vaginal discharge could mean you’re dealing with a candida overgrowth.

Sometimes, if the infection is very severe, you may even experience a thick white discharge with blue spots. This type of discharge almost looks like crumbled blue cheese. I know, gross, right? After all, yeast is either a mold or a fungus!

These are definitely symptoms of a yeast infection that needs immediate attention. A good way to tell if a man may have an infection (even if he has no symptoms) is in his semen. It is normally thin and clear, but if it is thick and white, this may be an indication that he may be carrying the germ. It’s always a good idea to treat his spouse at the same time, even if they don’t show symptoms. A man usually shows no symptoms unless his immune system is compromised. Otherwise, they carry the germ and think they are fine.

Sometimes it can be difficult to determine what type of discharge you have. Discharge can be normal and abnormal, and discharge from a yeast infection can mimic the symptoms of a bacterial infection.

Really the best thing you can do is just examine the download to tell you which one it is without a doubt. If it’s a completely white vaginal discharge that may smell a bit like yeast or have no odor at all, then it’s definitely a yeast infection. If your discharge is yellow to brown with a foul odor, then it is a bacterial infection. And lastly, if it’s clear or slightly cloudy and sparse, it’s probably perfectly normal and nothing to worry about.

You can reduce the intensity of your normal flow by remembering to always wipe from front to back to prevent the spread of bacteria and wear loose clothing with cotton underwear.

Here are some tips to prevent abnormal discharge: Change out of wet clothes or bathing suits as soon as possible, shower before and after sexual intercourse or vigorous exercise, and keep the humidity level as low as possible.

This is an important part of reading, as everyone who has been with any type of reader will have been told that they possess psychic abilities, latent perhaps (very latent even!), but they exist nonetheless. Consequently, you will have to make some mention of this as well, because it will add credibility to your reading.

There are two main positions to look at in the palm of your hand for this, and they are shown in the drawing below.

psychic abilities

The first of these is a semicircle around the base of the index finger, usually about a half inch from the bottom of the finger. This is called Solomon’s Ring.
When I see this I say:

“This is known as Solomon’s Ring. It gives interest to the psychic and that’s possibly why you are her today.”

I then look diagonally across the palm at an intuition line, which is a small line running down the center of the palm from the bottom of the hand on the same side as the little finger. This line is often hard to see or missing. If it is there I comment:

“This is your Line of Intuition. Your Ring of Solomon gave you an interest in the psychic. This gives you ability. It is very rare, in fact only one person in a hundred has it (not true). You should always act on your hunches or feelings since, with this line, they would always be correct”.

If the person has long fingers, I add:

“However, you are basically a very logical person, so you may have to learn to put aside your rational and logical mind and let your feelings flow. It may not be easy, but with this line, your feelings would be right, so ultimately it could go a long way.”

If someone has two Lines of Intuition, (two lines together) I say:

“Your feelings could come in handy through dreams. It’s not always easy to remember your dreams, but if you tried, and possibly kept a dream journal by your bed, you could go a long way.”

Occasionally you will find a Line of Intuition that goes down the hand and reaches the Line of Destiny or the Line of the Head. If it reaches the Head Line I say:

“As his intuition line runs straight to his head line, he would make a very good psychic or spiritual teacher. He seems to have developed his abilities quite a bit, but it’s going to take these special gifts a lot, a lot.” more in the future.”

However, if it is the Fate Line, I say:

“With your Line of Intuition crossing over to join your Line of Destiny, you will find that your psychic abilities will ultimately take you very far. This could happen through telepathy, clairvoyance, even through foresight into the future. You could spend time and effort developing yourself intuitively and spiritually, as this will make your ultimate progress much more successful.”

There is also what is known as a psychic shaped hand. This is a long, slender, graceful hand, usually covered with a myriad of worry lines and a pronounced Girdle of Venus. However, I ignore the hand shapes when doing a quick read as they are not necessary. If you are interested in Palmistry as a study in its own right, you will find that the shape of the hand is extremely important in the analysis of character. However, it is outside the scope of this work.

Money

This is another topic that you need to cover as everyone is vitally interested in getting money or being secure in their old age.

earned money

Earned money is shown by a triangle formed on two sides by the crossing of the Fate and Head lines. Usually there is a third line that forms the third side. The larger this triangle, the greater the potential to earn money. It does not mean that they will win all the money indicated by this triangle. It is simply a potential. The other money sign of the hand is a small line between the third and fourth fingers. This indicates legacy money. Some lucky people have several of these fine lines. I cover the money this way:

“You have a good money sign (vaguely indicated by the triangle at the intersection of the Fate and Head lines). This is just a potential, but it looks like you will do well financially throughout your life.”

If the person also has a space between the head line and the life line (as illustrated in the last lesson), I say instead:

“You have a good money sign, so throughout your life a lot of money will come in. However, you will always be a good spender, so some will come out as well. Early in your life, you may have been better to spend it.” instead of, but these days you’re pretty good at sticking with it, too, as long as there’s a purpose in mind. Ultimately, you’ll do pretty well financially.”

“Pretty good” can mean anything, of course.

legacy money

I read the legacy money lines this way:

“These lines indicate inherited money, so you will get money (multiple times). I can’t date this though. They could be from the past or before you. Also, they may not come directly through you, or.”

That doesn’t say much, does it?

I always tell people that I don’t recommend gambling. “Easy money” is indicated by little triangles on the inside of the lifeline, but they are very hard to see and interpret, so for a quick read, don’t even try to find any. Instead I say:

“I really wouldn’t recommend gambling. You don’t seem to be very successful in that regard. Maybe in small ways, but not in big ways. Your luck comes in other ways. Through hard work you always get there.” on time.”

You will go blind! Your palms will be hairy! You’re going to be plagued with pimples! There are so many misconceptions about masturbation that it’s hard to believe any of them are true. But what if there was a connection between masturbation and acne?

Well, there is something like that, but not really.

They both start at puberty and sometimes even start at the same time. However, masturbation is usually met with more joy and happiness than acne. Let’s learn a little more about their connection and whether one leads to the other (and then what to do about it, especially when it shows up below the belt).

What is acne?

Acne is a skin condition that causes whiteheads, blackheads, and pimples to form. The pores live under the skin and connect to glands that produce sebum, an oily substance. Of course, dead skin, sebum, and other debris can block the glands, attract bacteria, and thus lead to inflammation. This is the acne a man sees on the surface of his skin, and yes, that includes his penis.

Does masturbation cause acne?

Let’s start by saying that acne is usually caused by hormonal changes. Hormonal changes begin at puberty. These changes stimulate the body’s oil production, which can lead to acne. Masturbation also begins at puberty, but it doesn’t affect hormone levels enough to cause acne. In fact, the only effect it has on hormones is minimal and usually temporary based on short-term studies. Because both masturbation and acne begin around the same time in a man’s life, it’s easy to see where the misconception comes from. So no, one of the side effects of masturbation is not acne. That said, if a man is careless in his hygiene after masturbating and doesn’t clean himself well, any leftover emissions or funk can cause him to get pimples or acne on or near his penis.

What causes acne?

Believe it or not, acne is like the common cold: Research isn’t 100 percent sure what causes it. However, there are many likely causes, including hormonal changes, medications, diet, use of makeup and skin care products, genetics, and lazy hygiene.

If it’s not acne, does masturbation have side effects?

Sure! Everything has a side effect. The side effects of masturbation are mostly positive, although there are some negative ones. Here are just a few of the “goodies”: improved performance, improved body confidence, improved mood, better sleep, lower risk of prostate cancer, maintenance of healthy erectile tissue, and much more.

How can a man get rid of acne… down there?

Most men know how to clear acne on their body. Well, except for the area directly surrounding Mr. Happy. The reproductive zone is a very delicate area for many reasons. The skin is finer and more delicate, making it much more sensitive to products. The area is also kept indoors and in the dark, making it an ideal beachfront property for bacteria. It’s also an area that might see a razor or trimmer from time to time, so ingrown hairs and penile pimples can be a real problem.

The best thing a man can do to clean the area is to do just that, keep the area clean. Here are some steps to take every day to keep your zit tally-wacker free:

– Wash daily with warm water and a mild cleanser. Be gentle but thorough, and rinse well.

– Wear cotton underwear that is breathable and loose.

– Wash immediately after exercising, having sex or on very sweaty days.

– Aerate the penis daily. Try sleeping in the nude or just letting it all hang out for a bit each day (in a private place, of course).

– Use an oil specially formulated for penis health (health professionals recommend Man 1 Man Oil that has been clinically proven to be gentle and safe for the skin) daily. Created with vitamin A, a natural antibacterial, vitamins B and C for healthy skin renewal, and collagen for elasticity, this oil will keep skin clear and supple for masturbation or partner play.

A complete physical exam at your GP’s office will include an investigation of liver enzymes. If a report reveals that your liver enzymes are elevated, it could mean many things. One possibility is that you end up being diagnosed with fatty liver. Physical signs of a fatty liver can also include a distended abdomen, increased fatigue, and difficulty losing weight. A specialist can also feel a fatty liver and can also see the fatty deposits in the liver during a diagnostic ultrasound.

Factors that could have contributed to your fatty liver may include a combination of things. You may be genetically predisposed to fatty liver, so no matter how healthy your daily habits are, you can still have this condition. However, other factors include frequent alcohol consumption, a diet full of fatty foods. For example, typical food bars like chicken wings, nachos, and potato chips can be very bad for fatty liver. Similarly, any fast food is usually full of fat. Eating a lot of sugar wouldn’t help your condition either. Finally, not having aerobic activity in your life will not help you lose fat from your body.

For someone who is overweight, ways you can significantly reduce fatty liver include two very important changes to your daily routine. One factor is the introduction of aerobic exercise into your routine, at least 5 days a week. You should do 20-45 minutes of activity that makes you sweat and gets your heart rate up. If you haven’t exercised in a long time, start with a light jog for a minute or two, followed by a brisk walk for a minute, then alternate between jogging and walking. It’s helpful to get a heart rate monitor so you can get your heart rate up to around 60 or 70 percent of your maximum heart rate. Talk to your doctor or other health care professional to determine your own target heart rate.

The other very important factor is changing your diet. Eat five small meals a day instead of three large meals. Eat until you are 70 percent full instead of 100 or 120 percent full. Eat fruit between meals, but no more than 4 fruits per day. Stay away from fried foods or foods with moderate or high fat. Get in the habit of eating more salads if possible.

If you follow the instructions above, you will notice that your weight drops considerably over a period of three months and you will also get rid of your fatty liver and become much healthier overall. This is highly recommended as having a fatty liver can lead to diabetes and other complications later on.

There are three other things that can really help you get rid of your fatty liver. These include:

1. Take milk thistle every day. Go to your local health food store and get some milk thistle tablets. Take a little daily as directed on the label.

2. Drink Chinese black tea for fatty liver. Go to a Chinese herbal store and buy some black tea with specific ingredients to reduce fatty liver. Drink two teas a day.

3. Eat chia seeds daily. Chia is full of Omega-3 and antioxidants, along with many other nutrients. Chia is amazing for helping lower cholesterol, blood sugar, and fat. The most effective proprietary chia blend on the market today is Mila. Mila has several advantages over other chia brands, including the following:

– It is the only mixture of seeds grown in different regions to maximize a variety of specific nutrients.
– It is the only proven seed.
– It is the only chopped seed. Grinding the seed can cause a loss of nutrients and eating the whole seed will not provide the same amount of nutrients.
– It is the only seed grown within the most nutritious growing region.
– It is the only seed that is associated with a company whose main goal is to change the health of hungry people around the world. The company helps others who can’t help themselves and is the only company to offer a proven product that claims excellent quality.

If you modify your lifestyle as described above, your chances of eliminating your fatty liver problem are very good. Yes, it can be a challenge the first few weeks to fit all these clothes in, but in just a couple of weeks, you’ll feel more energized and be on your way to a new, healthier you.

As mature women with busy lives, we often find it difficult to eat well. However, research has shown that eating right and exercising can help slow the aging process. Fruits and vegetables are some of the things we need to stay healthy on a daily basis. However, eating them is not always practical or desirable. That’s where the juices come in. Drinking a glass of juice is sometimes easier and more enjoyable than eating.

But not all juices are created equal when it comes to reap the necessary health benefits for menopausal women. Some may contain too much sugar or not have enough necessary vitamins. Here are 6 of the best:

Apple juice

The saying, “An apple a day, keep the doctor away,” isn’t too far from the truth. Apple juice contains nutrients that help women develop strong immune responses. If you have the option, choose apple juice with some pulp. Not only is this type higher in antioxidants, it also contains fiber, which is important for proper gastrointestinal function.

Cranberry juice

Cranberry juice has long been touted as being helpful in preventing urinary tract infections. Cranberry juice is also packed with antioxidants and vitamins C and E.

beet juice

Beets are particularly good for postmenopausal women because they contain powerful antioxidants that can reduce the risk of heart disease and inflammation. Beets also contain inorganic nitrates that have been shown to lower blood pressure.

prune juice

Prune juice has long had a reputation as a cure for constipation due to its fiber content. However, the benefits of prune juice do not end there. Plums are rich in B vitamins that can improve metabolism, increase red blood cell production, and improve skin and eye health.

Granada juice

Pomegranates are a good source of vitamin K, a vitamin that is essential for blood clotting, bone formation, and heart health.

Orange juice

Orange juice is an important source of vitamin C. Vitamin C or ascorbic acid is an important nutrient that is vital for the development of all body tissues. Additionally, vitamin C has been shown to stimulate the immune system and is important for iron absorption and collagen formation in the body. This is especially important as we age, as these functions are often affected by the aging process. Lastly, vitamin C can help lower systolic and diastolic blood pressure.

While all of the juices listed have health benefits, they can also be high in sugar. So for best results, opt for fresh juice when you can and avoid added sugar.

So the next time your plate lacks the recommended fruits and vegetables, grab a tall glass of juice to help restore your health.

Vegas baby. Vegas! They weren’t lying: what happens in Vegas…stays in Vegas!

How many times have you heard those catchy phrases? Well, we agree: both are highly exaggerated. But, they really sum up your Vegas experience. Bottom line: Las Vegas is all about controlling your husbands, wives, girlfriends, boyfriends, etc. at the door and detach yourself from any moral, concern, conscience. This is the place where everyone seems to think “anything goes,” and it usually is! People really enjoy pretending to be someone else. Even the most conservative woman in your office will let her hair down and give in to that one night stand – she is in Vegas, after all!

With all those poker faces and bluffs on the casino scene, everyone thinks they are someone else long after they leave the tables.

Vegas is a place to act like that friend who always tells the best stories. It’s a place to stay up past bedtime, gamble your entire paycheck, act a little crazy, or do the things you’re always too afraid to do in the “real world.” It’s a place where you’re supposed to get into trouble and mix things up. It’s a city of bling-bling and dreams, because you never know when your luck is going to catch fire.

Somehow, despite all this crazy single nonsense, Las Vegas is still a big enough city to offer plenty of options for yuppie alternate couples, too. They can clean up and enjoy an exquisite meal or a dazzling show. They can lead the tables with the best and spend the afternoon at the pool or spa. Things get boring in the bedroom? Try one part champagne, one part swanky hotel room, one part Las Vegas, and you’ll be back at it like rabbits. Just don’t get too drunk, because you might wake up the next morning and find out that Elvis married you in that little white chapel, with plastic flowers. Classy, ​​huh? I bet parents would love to hear that!

Yes, Las Vegas has a lot of adrenaline and you will feel the excitement in everything you do here. In a city where people have $10,000 on a single card, even the most mundane of everyday tasks, like eating and drinking, take on more excitement. And if eating and drinking is your thing, you’ve come to the right place. The best restaurants and chefs from all over the world came to the city and opened their doors. Now you too can enjoy the highest quality cuisine on The Strip. Here are our JourneyPod picks for Vegas-style dining, drinking, and dancing:

Bradley Ogden (Caesars Palace) – California celebrity chef Bradley Ogden recently opened this sleek and modern Caesars Palace restaurant, the first outside of the Bay Area. In addition to a 60-seat lounge, the restaurant features a patio dining area that overlooks Caesars Coliseum and a mock patio with torch-shaped fixtures and a waterfall. The emphasis is on creative, regional, farm-fresh American food – try the “opah” and “halibut” and you’ll see why this restaurant is such a big prize. Everything here seems to be perfect, and judging by the looks of the locals, everything really is!

Delmonico Steakhouse (Venetian) – Chef Emeril Lagasse has done it again, this time on the Las Vegas Strip!

The purpose of the trip does not matter, whether it is for business or a family vacation. If you are planning a longer stay then you should consider staying in the serviced apartments. They are ideal for short or long-term stays. These apartments are much cheaper than staying in hotels. Those companies that need to send their employees frequently on business trips are taking advantage of the opportunity to choose these short-term accommodations. Travelers are also switching to these apartments as they are affordable and save a lot of money. Most of these apartments are suitable for families, couples and business groups.

The advantages of being in one of the serviced apartments-

a homey atmosphere

The apartments are the best to give a feeling of home. This is because they are spacious and are better for staying for longer periods. Just like at home, no other guests come to interfere with the affairs of daily life. Even employees on a longer trip for international assignments can stay with their families with no problem.

Necessary Appliances and Appliances

Regularly used household items are one of the many important things these apartments offer. The only thing about these short-term accommodations are the kitchens. So if travelers get tired of eating food made at the hotel, they can make their own in the well-equipped kitchen. This will help them save their money by doing the same. In addition, there are other utilities such as washing machines, heating and cooling systems that are usually present in these apartments.

Services and facilities

These fully furnished apartments have parking, cleaning service that help maintain comfortable living in the accommodation. In addition, service operators provide hotel-type facilities. The facilities are mainly swimming pools and saunas, gyms, convenience stores, repairs and many others.

Privacy & Security

Privacy and security are the two important factors that serviced apartment staff are most concerned about. The apartment offers complete privacy which is much less than in hotels. Unlike hotels and resorts, apartments keep security systems always on. Security systems are very strict on this issue.

Mobility

The locations of these apartments are generally in the city center. This allows the guest to easily take advantage of the surrounding spaces and visit various places through well-connected transportation and communication systems. In addition, guests will find shops and markets closer to them.

Therefore, these apartments are best suited for business travelers or backpackers due to highly standardized facilities, safe and home-like living environments.

First impressions are paramount

“You don’t get a second chance to make a first impression.” The non-verbal message your patient receives in the first few seconds affects how they will perceive you, the rest of the staff, and their entire experience in the department and hospital. To learn more about how your patients see you, ask another staff member for their thoughts on how you could make a better first impression. We can all improve in this area and an outside observer can be the mirror to see more clearly the clothes that need to be adjusted.

1) Body language: Before you greet the patient and family, pause and take a deep breath to slow down. You don’t want to appear rushed at this critical first contact, no matter how busy you are. Focus on the here and now, not the last case or lunch in 30 minutes. This may seem trivial, but it has a great effect on the patient’s perception of how he cares about his work and, consequently, how he will value and care for it.

2) Physical Appearance – Yours – Don’t underestimate the effects of a clean, wrinkle-free gown, a name tag, and proper grooming. If you get blood or betadine stains anywhere, go change. A patient will not trust a carer or department that they perceive as careless because it will translate that into a careless and ambivalent attitude about their work.

The Department: Physical appearance is essential for the department and especially for the procedure room. Be sure to clean contrast and blood spatter from C-arms, monitors, and other objects that patients see when sitting and lying on the table. Put your head there and look up and around to see what they see. You’ll be surprised. The room should look like it’s the first case of the day for each case. Self-assess the room by looking at it as if you were the patient walking through the door.

3) Eye contact and facial expressions: This is the most important thing you can do. When you approach the patient, smile when you first make eye contact, like a friend you’re glad to see. As you introduce yourself, shake his hand firmly and confidently and as you shake his hand, hold it for three seconds while looking him in the eye and say “we’re going to take good care of you.” They will believe you. Then shake hands with friends and family. These people are your partners in the hospital and after discharge. They will observe the patient better than ward staff and help with patient compliance throughout the recovery process.

Instill confidence by showing respect

Ask the patient how they feel right now and what worries them the most. This allows them to express themselves to you and allows you to focus on their personal concerns. Introduce yourself by name and tell them about her responsibilities during the procedure. Also list other staff members and their responsibilities. Add a compliment about a staff member or doctor to increase the patient’s confidence in the team.

After introductions, whisper into patients’ ears and ask if they want you to review their relevant medical history and procedure with their family/friends present or if they want you to do it in private. This will let the patient know that you value him and his privacy. If they want privacy, before bringing family and friends into a waiting room, ask them if they have any questions and take the time to answer them fully.

Briefly review the patient’s chief complaint, his hospitalization, and what brought him to this point.

Never lie to a patient or their partner. If they have a complaint, listen to them and then tell them what you are going to do about it and ask if that will solve their problem.

reduce anxiety

All of these FIRST steps will help reduce stress, allowing you to do a better job of improving the quality of information they provide in your medical history, reducing the number of medications you will need for sedation, and improving your understanding and compliance with instructions. intra and post procedure.

Laughter is also very useful. If you have a sense of humor that allows you to make the patient laugh, this is a great advantage. Always be tasteful and considerate in this area.

Sincere care and competence

Your patients know that if you sincerely respect and value them, your subsequent actions will be motivated with their best interest in mind. This is best communicated by showing them with your actions.

Touch them in a way that subtly communicates warmth and concern. For example: 1) When inspecting the IV site simply don’t push around the area with the tip of a finger, instead hold your hand in yours and support your forearm with your other hand, then gently feel around the IV site. the IV. 2) When checking the distal DP and PT pulses, support the foot with one hand while palpating the pulses with the other. 3) Especially if they have A.Fib. or an SVT, teach them how to take their pulse by holding their hand, helping them find a radial pulse, and counting for 15 seconds. You get the same but communicate much more with an extra touch.

If you have a blanket warmer, and if you do not need to request one, place it on a warm blanket as soon as you arrive in your pre-procedure area or room. Also, place the electrodes, defibrillation pads, and grounding pad on a warm blanket before putting them on the patient. If you put these items inside the blanket warmer, they will get too hot. The icing on the cake is to place a warm blanket on the table just before transferring the patient. They will extrapolate their attention to these details, so that you pay the same attention to all the essential details of the procedure.

If you really want to stand out, stand at the head of the patients at the beginning of the procedure and talk to them about what they are going to feel right before it happens. This will have a tremendously calming effect and is worth a couple of mg. of Versed as they will not feel alone and vulnerable. Anxious patients will love you for this.

teaching

Teaching begins when you first meet the patient, family, and friends. I like to tell patients, “This is my first case. Can you tell me why you’re here and what we’re supposed to do today?” If you have presented yourself confidently and competently, it will add some comic relief and your answer will allow you to assess your level of knowledge. If you look exhausted, they will believe you and be even more scared.

Then describe the procedure, mentioning specifically the sensations they will experience. A flat, hard bed, medicine to numb or put you to sleep with an anesthetic, oxygen in the nose, a sharp prick and burning sensation in the mouth from the anesthetic medicine, pressure like a finger being pushed as the IV tube is passed . inside, and racing and pounding in the heart during the test. Reassure them that this is all normal. Tell them if they’re not sure about something, so they’ll let you know right away.

If not taught, the patient will not know what is normal vs. what is terribly wrong and they will think the worst. This only needs to take a minute, but it puts the pieces together and helps you understand what has been going on with your body and your life.

At the end of the procedure, review with the patient and significant others the results of the procedure, the next steps in their care, and the post-procedure instructions. Hopefully the doctor has already told them, but their high stress level will create poor retention and a repeat will be necessary. Also, recruit significant others to help the patient follow these post-procedure instructions. They will be better problem monitors than floor staff and will also monitor the patient at home.

Summary

Patient satisfaction is taking on greater importance in today’s competitive business environment. Hospitals are spending a lot of time and money urging employees to improve patient satisfaction scores. This includes telling employees to remind patients to “give me a 10 when you get a follow-up call.” This approach hits me like ipecac. Use the steps outlined above to exceed the expectations of your patient and the hospital.

There are four main types of narcissism. Researchers have been searching for the core of narcissism that all narcissists share despite varying symptoms and severity. Narcissists use a variety of tactics and defenses to keep you insecure and ensure your status and needs are met. It’s easy to get confused, but it’s important to understand and spot what kind of narcissist you’re dealing with. Recently, two research teams have
identified a common trait.

the grandiose narcissist

Although there are different degrees and types of narcissism, for years research has focused primarily on exposure-seeking familial narcissists. These are the braggarts magnificent narcissists who are public figures and are recognizable in movies. They are described in the Diagnostic Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM) as narcissistic personality disorder (NPD).

We can all spot those charming, attention-seeking extroverts whose vanity and audacity are sometimes obnoxious and shameless. They are self-absorbed, authoritarian, insensitive, exploitative, authoritarian and aggressive. Some are physically abusive. These arrogant and empathetic narcissists think highly of themselves, but they spare no disdain for others. Aided by their extraversion, they report high self-esteem and satisfaction with their lives, despite the pain they cause others. Because they outwardly seek acclaim, attention, and dominance, grandiose narcissism externalizes. Even in love, they seek power by playing. Many do have relationships, despite the lack of intimacy and the unhappiness of their partners, who are easily seduced by their charisma and daring.

The vulnerable narcissist

A lesser-known type of narcissism is vulnerable narcissism (also known as covert, introverted, or covert narcissism). Like their grandiose relatives, vulnerable narcissists are selfish, bossy, exploitative, empathetic, manipulative, and aggressive, but they fear criticism so much that they shy away from attention. Individuals with both types of narcissism often lack autonomy, have impostor syndrome, a weak sense of self, are alienated, and are unable to master their environment.

Unlike grandiose narcissists, instead of feeling confident and self-satisfied, vulnerable narcissists are insecure and unhappy with their lives. They experience more distress, anxiety, guilt, depression, hypersensitivity, and shame. They are conflicted, have inflated and negative irrational views of themselves, the latter of which they project onto other people, their lives and the future. His negative emotionality represents a bitter neurotic aversion to personal growth. They require reinforcement for their grandiose self-image and are highly defensive when perceived criticism triggers a negative view of themselves.

Unlike extraverted narcissists, they lack positive relationships. Instead of boldly dominating people, they are threat-oriented and distrustful. Their attachment style is more avoidant and anxious. They withdraw from others with hostile guilt and resentment, internalizing their narcissism. Empathetic codependents sympathize and want to put them out of their misery, but end up sacrificing and feeling responsible for them.

the communal narcissist

Even more difficult to identify is a third type of narcissism. It was recently named communal narcissism. Community narcissists value warmth, kindness, and relatedness. They see themselves and want to be seen by others as the most trustworthy and supportive person and they try to achieve this through kindness and kindness.

They are extroverts like the grandiose narcissist. However, while the grandiose narcissist wants to be seen as the most intelligent and powerful, a communal narcissist wants to be seen as the most generous and helpful. The vain selflessness of communitarian narcissists is no less selfish than that of a grandiose narcissist. Both share similar motives of grandiosity, esteem, entitlement, and power, though each employs different behaviors to achieve them. When his hypocrisy is discovered, it is a major fall.

The malignant narcissist

Malignant narcissists are considered to be at the extreme end of the narcissism type continuum due to their cruelty and aggressiveness. They are paranoid, immoral and sadistic. They find pleasure in creating chaos and bringing people down. These narcissists are not necessarily grandiose, extroverted, or neurotic, but they are closely related to psychopathy, the dark triad, and antisocial personality disorder. (Houlcroft, et al. (2012)

Fluctuating ego states among types of narcissism

If you’re having a hard time identifying what type of narcissist you’re dealing with, it may be because grandiose narcissists oscillate between states of grandiosity and vulnerability. For example, grandiose narcissists may display vulnerability and emotionality (usually anger) when their success is thwarted or their self-concept is under attack. Greater grandiosity indicates greater instability and probability of fluctuation. There is little evidence that vulnerable narcissists display grandiosity. (Edershile & Wright, 2019), (Rhodewalt, et al. 1998)

The search for the core of narcissism

Using new techniques, recent studies have attempted to isolate a single, unifying trait among narcissists. The researchers examined narcissism by testing for different personality traits. Two recent models have emerged: one is based on personality and the other is an integrative and transactional approach.

The trifurcated model

The trifurcated model shows that narcissism centers around three personality traits: agentic extraversion, unpleasantness, and neuroticism. (Miller, Lynam, et al., 1917) (Agency extroverts are bold, authoritarian ambitions who pursue positions of acclaim, achievement, and leadership.)

Of the Big Five personality traits, Dislike is the only one common to both types. The model illuminates the core of narcissism as an interpersonal antagonism, shared by grandiose and vulnerable narcissists alike. It is characterized by manipulation, hostility, entitlement, callousness, and anger. (Kaufman, et al., 2020) Vulnerable and grandiose narcissists express antagonism differently. The former are more hostile and distrustful, and the latter more immodest and domineering.

The Spectrum Model

The Narcissism Spectrum Model (NSM) created by Kerzan and Herlache (2017) conceives of narcissism as existing on a spectrum from the grandiose to the vulnerable. Demonstrates how NPD varies in severity and how traits manifest. The model reveals the spectrum model of narcissism

that both types of narcissists share a common psychological core of titled self-importance. Narcissists believe that they and their needs are special and take precedence over those of others. This core is made up of arrogance, selfishness, and entitlement. In fact, the law is reported to be the most toxic element in relationships.

The different personalities of narcissists express different qualities at various times, this model captures a fluid and functional analysis that is more representative of real life. The greater the grandiosity of a person, the less his vulnerability and vice versa. More entitlement and risk taking increase professional and interpersonal difficulties. The greater the vulnerability, the further away (lesser) is its grandiosity.

takeaway

In short, narcissism exists on a spectrum from dominant and extraverted to introverted and neurotic. The core features of narcissism are antagonism, self-importance, and entitlement, making narcissists unpleasant, uncooperative partners, and co-workers. Because other personality types can be antagonistic, I prefer the spectrum model that highlights the right to self-importance as the core of narcissism, thus distinguishing it from sociopathy and borderline personality disorder, among others.

Grandiose narcissists present a mixed bag. While they feel and function better than vulnerable narcissists and can participate socially when they want to, their antagonism and rights create problems and endanger relationships. If they attend psychotherapy, they should focus on their antagonism and entitlement.

On the other hand, vulnerable narcissists need help managing their perceptions, moods, and emotions. They resemble people with borderline personality disorder and would benefit from dialectical behavior therapy, which is effective in reducing antagonism. Schema-focused psychotherapy and cognitive behavioral therapy are helpful for both types to reduce shame and anger.

Whichever type of narcissist you care about, the relationship is hurtful. Instead of meeting his needs, he feels undermined and exhausted as he deals with frequent criticism, insensitivity, hostility, demands, and legitimate expectations. Don’t waste your efforts trying to please or change a narcissist. Instead, begin recovery to rebuild your self-esteem and autonomy so that you are more resilient, whether you stay or go. If you’re undecided, seek individual psychotherapy and use the tools in Dealing with a Narcissist to determine the prognosis for your relationship.
