Thumb Appreciation Day February 18
Here is a positive happy holiday that you can make a Thumbs Up sign about — Thumb Appreciation Day! Thumb Appreciation Day is a holiday to like and appreciate our thumbs. Thumbs are important in acupressure. Massaging your thumb helps to relieve stress. Thumbs show direction. Like if you turn your hand to the right with your thumb up you are showing someone that something is in that direction. You don’t have to point with your index finger. Simply turn your wrist to the right and indicate the right direction with your thumb. Happy Thumb Appreciation Day! Post on social sites with #ThumbAppreciationDay.

Blow On Your Thumb for 30 Seconds, See What’ll Happen To You
Bright Side
This video tells you about blowing on your thumb to help you to be calm. A person’s thumb has a direct effect on their vagus nerve.
The vagus nerves run from the brain down to all the major organs and tissues, including the nose, mouth, throat, lungs, heart, intestines and many others. So when you blow on your thumb, you’re giving additional stimulation to your vagus nerve, which can start several useful processes throughout your body.
According to Dr. Arun Ghosh, a general practitioner from Spire Liverpool Hospital, our thumbs have their own pulse. So when you blow on them, you regulate your heart rate and lower your blood pressure, which helps you calm down and de-stress. This trick is also really useful whenever you’re experiencing major anxiety.

Summary
– When you blow on your thumb, you’re giving additional stimulation to your vagus nerve, which can start a whole bunch of useful processes throughout your body.
– Our thumbs have their own pulse. So when you blow on them, you regulate your heart rate and lower your blood pressure, which helps you calm down and de-stress. This trick is also really useful whenever you’re experiencing major anxiety.
– Being exposed to natural fractal patterns like leaves, snowflakes, flowers, or ocean waves for at least 20 minutes a day can reduce your stress levels by 60%.
– Simply apply pressure to the soft indented point between your second and third knuckles. This will stimulate a nerve in your body that relaxes the area around the heart.
– Your earlobes are actually powerful pressure points that can bring you much-needed relaxation and calm not only your mind but your entire body as well.
– According to colorology, a theory that suggests that color and light can be used to balance our emotional, mental, or physical state, looking at certain colors can calm down your nerves.
– A 2015 study published in the journal Environment & Behavior confirmed that watching fish swim in an aquarium leads to a noticeable reduction in blood pressure and heart rate.
– When you blow up a balloon, you also deep-breathe which, once again, regulates your heart rate and makes you feel a bit more relaxed.
– Your smile basically gives a “happy” signal to your brain, which, in turn, responds with a series of bodily reactions that make you feel way better. And if a genuine smile is too much to ask at this point, just fake it!

Tall Tales and Fables for kids
Tom Thumb is a character of English folklore. The History of Tom Thumb was published in 1621, and was the first fairy tale printed in English. Tom is no bigger than his father’s thumb, and his adventures include being swallowed by a cow, tangling with giants and becoming a favourite of King Arthur. The earliest allusions to Tom occur in various 16th-century works such as Reginald Scot’s Discovery of Witchcraft (1584), where Tom is cited as one of the supernatural folk employed by servant maids to frighten children. Tattershall in Lincolnshire, England, reputedly has the home and grave of Tom Thumb.
