Healing and Recovery Through Art
For centuries, some of the most famous artists have been victims of trauma and violence—especially childhood ones. While I am of the firm opinion that no human should ever be traumatized by another human being, there is no denying: Trauma, tragedy, sadness, and mental anguish are beautiful muses. These horrifying things have been the muse of many a famous artist throughout history.

Addiction : a brain disease not a moral failing
Addiction is defined as not having control over doing, taking, or using something to the point where it could be harmful to you. Previous to understanding the science, it was thought that addiction resulted from a lack of willpower and was a moral failing. But we now know that addiction is a physiological disease. It changes the brain's structure in ways that can alter the way it works and processes information.

Keeping the Mind Young: Science-Backed Ways to Slow Brain Ageing
As we age, we often expect wrinkles, weaker bones, or slower movement — but what truly worries most people is the ageing of the mind. Forgetting names, losing focus, or feeling mentally fatigued can be frightening signs that our brain is changing. Yet, science is uncovering hopeful news: the brain is not a machine doomed to wear out. It’s a living, adaptable organ capable of renewal, repair, and growth at any age — if we give it the right conditions.

Your Body Definitely Keeps The Score . Top Story - October 2025.
That is one massive (albeit alarming) statistic. No wonder why we can all feel a bit f*cked up, or the world certainly does, if our garden has been watered accordingly, and all of the relevant weeds have been pulled out - metaphorically speaking of course. The author of the book by the same title (The Body Keeps The Score), Bessel van der Kolk paves the way for a grounding, heavy, eye opening yet awesome read into the human psyche; and (of course) trauma plays a significant role. All of our not so positive thoughts and setbacks to teach us lesson after lesson are all the epitome of trauma. This is why life can feel like smooth sailing for a small percentage of people; while for the majority of us, life is blighted with issue after issue, all thanks to the subconscious. (And that includes all of those circumstances in the opening image of this article.)

Stop the cycle of senseless overthinking
We all do it. We get caught up in the current of little worries, the petty anxieties, the constant loop of things that, if we're honest with ourselves, simply don't deserve the precious minutes we grant them. We allow the trivial, the insignificant slights and the fleeting judgments, to take up prime real estate in our minds. And what is the cost of this habit? It's a fundamental loss of joy and a shocking squandering of our most limited resource: time. It’s time we shift our perspective, isn’t it? It’s time we truly learn how to live the good life we deserve, not just dream about it.

The Words I Needed but Never Got
There are moments in life when silence weighs heavier than words. For me, it wasn’t the harsh things said that left the deepest scars—it was the words that were never spoken at all.

Why is My Anxiety Worse in the Morning?
Do you ever feel overwhelmed with anxiety before you even get out of bed? Well, you're not alone, as many people experience their anxiety most intensely in the morning. This can make getting up even more complicated than usual. Even simple tasks like making coffee or checking your phone can seem like a major obstacle. You may be so tired in the morning that starting the day becomes nearly impossible.

When Love Ends Quietly
"The Day Everything Changed" I never thought it would end like this. No shouting. No slammed doors. No angry words thrown across the room. Just silence. Just an ordinary day that suddenly became the day when everything shifted, when the love I thought would last forever quietly came to a close.

Showing Up
Human beings are social creatures, and much of our identity is built on how others perceive us. Most of us want to be respected, admired, and included. Yet for some people, this need turns into a compulsion. They develop the habit of “showing up”— inserting themselves into situations not to contribute meaningfully, but to be noticed, admired, or seen as superior. To observers, this behavior often comes across as arrogant or ignorant. But psychology shows that behind such attention-seeking displays lie complex motivations, insecurities, and social dynamics.
