Do This: Use your fingers to locate the spot between your lumbar spine and your tailbone, near the middle of your sacrum (that's the large, triangular bone at the base of your spine). Firmly press this pressure point while taking deep breaths in through your nose and out through your mouth until the pain begins to subside. Repeat throughout the day when feel cramps flaring up.

For No-One-Will-Notice-if-I-Nap-in-the-Bathroom Drowsiness
Do This: Use your middle and index fingers to firmly press against the back of your knees for a boost of energy.

Then, use your thumb and index finger to massage the same spot behind your knees followed by the middle of your foot.
