Many people turn to sleep aid medication to get them to sleep at

"over-the-counter sleep aids work for some people, t's not a
good idea to use these regularly for a long period of time,"
especially if you haven't received a doctor's recommendation.
Why can long-term use of sleep medications be harmful if you
haven't consulted a doctor? Why is talking to a doctor helpful?
What can a doctor consult you in when it comes to sleep aides?
Do all sleep aides help everyone equally? Why not? When should
you/under what circumstances should you ask your doctor about
sleep aid medication? What else can you say about sleep aid
medications + doctors? What are some other things people
commonly use that they should actually consult a doctor about
first?

Dear Friends Authority Magazine is starting a new series about

Young People Changing Our World. Full description here

Our society is going through a rough time right now. But
amazingly, so many young people have now taken initiative to
help make our world a bit better.

We would love to feature young leaders - teen leaders, and
twenty something leaders - who have taken initiative to make a
positive change in our society. It can either be through a local
grassroots initiative, a non profit organization, or a business
that has a social impact angle. We would love to discuss their
vision for the better world that they would like to help create,
and the steps needed to make that happen.

The interview series will have two stages.

All of the full interviews will be published in Arianna
Huffington's Thrive Global and Authority Magazine, and they will
look like the following:

Dear Friends Authority Magazine is starting a new series about

How Anyone Can Build Habits For Optimal Wellness, Performance, &
Focus. Full description here https://bit.ly/2HiqnkC

Having a habit or a routine is like an operating system for your
mind. If you can create a new positive habit, it is like getting
an upgrade to your operating system.

What are the habits for optimal wellness, peak performance, and
a strong focus? How does one develop these habits? How does one
eliminate negative habits?

We would like to feature any business leader or expert who can
discuss the habits for great health, great focus, and great
performance in all areas of life

The interview series will have two stages.

All of the full interviews will be published in Arianna

look like the following:

Giving a new city a trial run

Hello!

For an article I'm writing for Livability (and possible
syndication in MarketWatch), I'm writing a "Guide to Trying out
a New City" and would love to hear from a variety of sources on
the following:

Please answer one or more of the following based on your
expertise.

How to choose an Airbnb in a new city to "feel like a local?"

Are there any retreats/programs for newcomers to a city -- even
if it's remote in this era of COVID?

What are some ways to click into your new city/get a pulse of
it? I'd love hear some off the beaten path ideas (i.e. I like to
look at the recommended reads in bookstores b/c you'll find
local authors).

Are there any cities that are offering cool incentives/programs
to newcomers/people setting up small businesses w/in a community
that we could highlight?

How can you make friends in a new city -- and do so during
COVID-19?

Are there any co-working spaces that allow new clients to test
run the space and have community events to network / meet
friends?

I'm open to a number of sources: real estate agents, chambers of
commerce, business development offices, co-working spaces,
counselors who specialize in relationship-building, etc.

Thank you!

Requirements:

We're just covering U.S. cities for this guide. Thanks!
