With the current state of society being in lock down, the usual go-to of picking up things in person has gotten pretty bleak. As a result, ordering online is the best solution to get your essential and favorite items while remaining socially distant and safe. Maybe it's just me, but because of this quarantine, I'm ordering a LOT more things (that I probably don't need to be honest) because why not? I have the time kill anyway and it's a judgement free zone. The only issue with the influx of my packages being delivered, there is an increase in the possibility of it being stolen since signatures are currently no longer required to receive them. Instead, they have instilled a "knock, drop, and go" policy, where the delivery person will knock or ring the doorbell, drop the parcel off and leave. While it is for safety reasons for the delivery personnel and ourselves, it does make it a little harder for us to trust that our packages are safe once delivered since we can't physically see the package being delivered.  However, an easy solution to this problem is The IMGadgets Floodlight Security Camera. It's a more affordable version of home security that helps you feel more safe while at home. With the camera you can set motion zones on your property which then send you notifications when someone is at your door. You are then able to communicate with them and see them via the two-way-talk and video feature through the app to instruct them on where they can safely leave your package whether you're home or not. This way, you are keeping yourself safe at a distance while ensuring your package has been placed in a safe place. You can also watch, record, and save videos to further ensure the safety of your home, sound a siren alarm if you see someone suspicious on your property, or even call 911 if you feel you or your home are in danger.  Put yourself at ease when it comes to wondering and worrying if your package will be waiting for you when you get home (which I'm guilty of). With this camera you can easily give yourself that extra reassurance in the safety of your home and delivered packages. Simply set up the camera, relax, and watch everything from your phone. Who wouldn't want that type of ease? 

We are all living through a period of uncertainty, heightened stress, and difficulty as a result of Covid-19. It can be hard to maintain a steady level of serenity and posivitity with the unpredictability of present times. However, the good news is that there ways to combat that anxiety experienced from Coronavirus through the practice of emotional resilience that can be learned and maintained! These exercises will help you understand how to build emotional resilience with techniques that can be applied to your daily life. We have a lot more time indoors, so might as well find ways to actively cope with the situation while staying sane and mentally healthy.  But first, you may be wondering what emotional resilience is? Simply put it is the ability to adapt and respond to stressful developments in your life. Being emotionally resilient means you have the capabilities to healthily deal with adversity without encountering many long-term negative effects on your mental or emotional health. Whether you are more or less emotionally resilient, integrating these new habits into your life can make a long-term difference in maintaining your mental health through adversity.  1. Build Your Support System As High School Musical said "we're alll in thiss together!", and as you're figuring out how to build resilience, it's important to remember this; you can't do this alone.This does not dismiss the inner strength and autonomy involved with emotional resilience, but a key component is also about learning that being at your best means having a strong support system behind you. Despite what you may think, there is nothing wrong with reaching out for support. It shows your strength rather than weakness as you are aware of your own limitations and understand the value of human connection. We're all going through this period of change and uncertainty together, so try to reach out and ask for support or offer it. 2. Confront Your Fears Whether you realize this or not, our fears hold a lot of power when we hide from them, which why facing them can work wonders for your emotional well-being. If you don't believe me take Will Smith's word for it then. A practical approach that can be useful involves using meditation to deal with different emotions. This can be done in two parts to build your empowerment against fear. First, try to recognize your bodily cues for fear i.e. feeling your heart pounding, your stomach drop, or starting to sweat. In response to this, get into the habit of purposefully slowing down the pace of your body by breathing in and out very slowly and deeply, focusing on each breathe until your heart slows down. After this you are going to repeat to yourself "I am afraid of ____", doing this encourages you to take a more objective perspective. Then, repeat a positive affirmation to yourself like "I am calm, safe, and free from fear" until the words resonate and translate as feelings.  3. Evaluate Your Thoughts In recognizing your strengths and weaknesses to build your resilience, it requires you to regularly work on self-reflecting. This is vital because it allows you to be mindful of your own thoughts (regarding yourself and your life), your feelings, and how you speak to yourself. Overtime, you'll begin to identify different patterns that indicate areas that need some work. More specifically, keep an eye out for a tendency to avoid responsibility for things going wrong in life, and to hide vulnerable emotions (i.e. shame) under bigger, more defensive emotions ( i.e. anger). It can be helpful to implement a daily self-reflective practice like keeping a journal to make a note of these tendencies, as you challenge yourself daily to think of something new you've learned about yourself. Doing this reinforces the idea that even your setbacks can help you improve yourself and life as you realize and change these negative habits.  4. Control Your Destiny  Once you're emotionally resilient, you're able to really see and bask in the happiness that comes with realizing that you are the sole person that has control over your life. Accepting you have full power over how you respond to stressful situations (like this pandemic) and exercising this power can play a significant role in keeping calm and regulating any anxious feelings. An effective method would be to say "I have a choice" whenever you encounter a setback or challenge. This allows you to identify and evaluate your choices, despite how limited they may be, and taking action once you've decided on a path. You'll be surprised how freeing it can be to exercise this control over your life.  5. Mindfulness Exercises  General mindfulness exercises can also double as emotional resilience exercises. Some of these exercises includes body scanning meditations that help you to identify and sit with your own emotions. To do so, spend 5-10 minutes breathing deeply and slowly as you move your attention from your head to your toe. Pay attention to what you feel, emotionally and physically, as you continue to breathe. Try not to judge, but simply observe these feelings, which allows you to accept that whatever you're feeling is okay and helps you to manage your responses to strong emotions. Another meditative exercise to try is to imagine your body filling up with warm, liquid gold that melts all of your stress away. Repeating these exercises helps you to feel more confident in yourself and in the control you have over how you respond in life.  Attaining emotional resilience is possible for everyone, and though not all of these exercises may be suitable for you, trying to implement even some of these practices into your daily life can make a long-term difference towards your emotional and mental health. I mean, we have no where to go so what's the harm in trying?    Reference: The Law Of Attraction.com 

With the occurrence of Covid-19, we have all been advised to stay indoors with minimal human contact to avoid further spreading until the virus is contained and under control.

Education is important for everyone, especially the growing minds of children. But we all know it can be a bit of task to get kids to enjoy learning and have fun while doing it. I present to you (drum roll please)....STEM Toys! The perfect combination of education and fun. Never heard of it? That's okay, we're here to help you know more. What are Stem Toys? STEM is a very hot topic when it comes to conversations about education, toy manufactures, and sales, as well as among parents, in relation to the growth of children. You may have gotten this far but are still wondering what does the term STEM mean? The acronym stands for Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics. This method of educating is special because it strays from your traditional and common techniques of learning through testing children's performance. Instead, it focuses on the development of necessary skills through the combination of classroom learning and real world experiences. This learning technique encourages a higher level creative thinking skills among children with emphasis on collaboration, problem solving, research, creativity, and critical thinking. All which can be unanimously agreed to be necessary skills children need to be successful in today's world, no matter what career journey or life interests they take.  Stem Concept as a Toy With the basis of stem focusing on curiosity, education, and learning, the type of STEM toys available are made to reflect that. The variety of STEM toys include some that focus on coding, mechanics, or chemistry, like the IMGadgets TacoBot Coding Robot. What's important to remember is that these toys work extremely well to express the importance of learning to your child but in a fun and accessible way, because the more fun they feel they're having, the less aware they are that they're actually learning as well. You Decide As Dr. Suess says "the more you read, the more things you will know" (it's only half the quote, I know) and now you can take this STEM knowledge you've just received into consideration for how it may benefit your child(ren)!

Wireless chargers are gaining more and more popularity with the convenience and hassle-free charging they provide. It is charging simplified without the need to plug a charging cable directly into the device you wish to charge. You might be thinking yes this is great and all, but what exactly is wireless charging? I'm glad you asked  What is Wireless Charging? Wireless charging involves using the electromagnetic fields (magnets) from one device to create an electric current in the metal coil inside another device. Basically, when the power from a charging port via outlet/USB is transferred to your device without the need of a connecting cable from the charging port directly to the device. This current exchange is what charges/powers the battery, which requires a power transmitting pad and a receiver. There is a wireless charging standard of Qi, developed by the Wireless Power Consortium (WPC) for inductive charging over distances less than/equal to 40 mm. This standard has been adopted by many major smartphone manufacturers like Samsung (Galaxy S6 and up), and Apple (iPhone 8 and up), and is also being incorporated in a growing number of vehicles.  What are the benefits of Wireless Charging? Well the first most obvious one is the freedom of charging without wires. Like with the IMGadgets 2x fast Wireless Charger, you don't have to worry about cords getting worn or ends getting frayed due to overuse. It'll be a growing satisfaction and appreciation of the extended lifespan you'll get from a stationary charging pad instead of continuously dealing with pulling cords in and out each day.  It is also a safer way to transfer power to your phone, minimizing your chances of being exposed to electric shock from the cord. Charging is extremely easy by just placing your phone on the charging pad, which also puts less strain on the charging port of your phone. With its growing popularity, more places around the world are installing Qi wireless charging pads, which means if you're ever out and about and don't have your charger with you, you can still charge your phone.  While there are some disadvantages like the charging may be slower vs. with a direct cord-to-wall plug in, and not all phones are Qi enabled for wireless charging. In the end the positives do outweigh the negatives, but that's for you decide how much you would like to experience the freedom of a wireless charging lifestyle.

Taking care of your E-mobility products is not as hard as it may seem. Just like treating your car like it's your baby, the same love should be shows to your e-mobility products if you want them to last. The key to this is knowing how to clean them and with what products that really makes a difference in your e-mobility products like Electric Scooters or Hoverboards lasting! It's better to be in the know, than unsure and make mistakes while maintaining.   If you see stains on the scooter's body, wipe them off with a damp cloth. If the stains won't scrub off, put on some toothpaste, and brush them with a toothbrush, then wipe them off with a damp cloth. If you see scratches on plastic parts, use sandpaper or other abrasive materials to polish them. Notes: do not clean the scooter with alcohol, gasoline, kerosene or other corrosive and volatile chemical solvents to prevent dire damage. Do not wash the scooter with a high-pressure water spray. During cleaning, make sure that the scooter's turned off, the charging cable is unplugged, and the rubber flap is closed as water leakage may result in electric shock or other major problems. When the scooter's not in use, keep it indoors where it is dry and cool. Do not put it outdoors for long time. Excessive sunlight, overheating and over-cooling accelerate tire aging and compromise the scooter and the battery pack's lifespan. 1. Use original battery packs, use of other models or brands may bring about safety issues;2. Do not touch the contacts. Do not dismantle or puncture the casing. Keep the contacts away from metal objects to preventshort circuit which may result in battery damage or even injuries and deaths;3. Use original power adapter to avoid potential damage or fire;4. Mishandling of used batteries may do tremendous harm to the environment. To protect natural environment, please followlocal regulations to properly dispose used batteries.5. After every use, fully charge the battery to prolong its lifespan. Do not place the battery in an environment where the ambient temperature is higher than 122°F or lower than -4°F (e.g., do not leave the scooter or the battery pack in a car under direct sunlight for an extended time). Do not throw the battery pack into fire as it may lead to battery failure, battery overheating, and even another fire. If the scooter is expected to be left idle for more than 15 days, please fully charge the battery and place it in a dry and cool place. Keep in mind to recharge it every 30 days to protect the battery from potential damage which is beyond limited warranty. Always charge before exhausting the battery to prolong the battery's lifespan. The battery pack performs better at normal temperature, and poor when it is below 32°F. For instance, when it is below -4°F, the riding range is only half or less at normal state. When the temperature rises, the riding range restores.The damage caused by prolonged no charge is irreversible. Once the damage is done, the battery can not be recharged (non-professionals are forbidden to dismantle the battery pack, as it maycause electric shock, short circuit or even major safety accidents). These cleaning tips can be used across all e-mobility products, leaving you with a longer product life span and a happier experience.With how much they cost, it doesn't hurt to show your e-mobility products some love!
