  • Keeping up with the trends

    We often deceive ourselves into believing we are free, yet we impose
    numerous restrictions on ourselves. Many individuals go to great
    lengths to stand out, facing significant pressure to look appealing.
    For women, the burden of beauty is particularly heavy; they feel the
    need to always present their best selves. #trends #fomo #jomo #happyfeet #overallhealth #podcast

  • Garden as a teacher

    Any living being that has lost its instincts has also lost its bond
    with nature. We frequently believe we are exempt from this principle,
    but it has ultimately cost us more than we realize. We tend to rush
    through everything, including our attempts to reconnect with nature,
    which often leads to hurried walks focused more on fitness and fresh
    air than on truly reconnecting with our inner selves. If we could
    just pause and listen occasionally, we would gain so much more from
    our time outdoors and learn valuable lessons from Mother Nature.

  • Why is comfort making us unhappy?

    Have you ever felt like life is limiting you? Have you ever experienced a sense of being restricted by the constraints of everyday life that we all face? When someone inquires about your day, you may find yourself at a loss for words, only able to respond with nothing out of ordinary or same old same old. Are you employed by a large company and feel unimportant and easily replaceable? Or do you have a boss who is selfish and doesn't respect your personal time?

  • What happens to the woman's brain during menopause

    This episode is for those who are curious and want to understand better the women’s brain during menopause. What changes they go through and how does this all affect the brain? Did you know that a word hysteria originates from Greek word for uterus? The

    oldest record of hysteria dates back to 1900 BCE when Egyptians recorded behavioral abnormalities in adult women on the Kahun Papyrus. In a groundbreaking study, Lisa Mosconi, an Italian American neuroscientist, educator, and author of The XX Brain and Brain Food, has conducted research comparing the brains of women in different stages of menopause for the first time. This study has provided valuable insights into the intricacies of the female brain, enhancing our understanding of its complexity. #brain #menopause #healthywoman

  • Is revenge ever justifiable?

    The human mind is known for its creativity and imagination, which also extends to our ideas of seeking revenge. While humans are the ones who typically plan and carry out premeditated attacks, it is unlikely that animals seek revenge in the same calculated manner. However, there are rare cases, such as the story of a Siberian tiger, where animals may exhibit retaliatory behavior. According to the writer, the tiger is simply acting on its natural instincts. In regions where humans and tigers coexist and hunt for the same prey without conflict, attacking a tiger would be a regrettable mistake.

  • Are shortcuts good for us?

    Humans have a tendency to seek shortcuts, especially when driving, in order to save time and money. GPS technology has made this easier by providing efficient routes. However, this rush to reach destinations quickly can lead to stress and anxiety, particularly for those who

    struggle with punctuality. This desire for instant results extends to other aspects of life, such as health and appearance, with many people seeking quick fixes like supplements. Despite the potential risks and side effects, modern society often prioritizes convenience over traditional remedies. It appears that we have not fully matured and still hold onto the belief in fairytales.

  • Are bacteria our friends?

    With so many cleaning products and awareness of the microorganisms in and around us, people tend to develop fear of them and see all of them as bad. What many of us tend to forget is that we need them to digest food. We need them to strengthen our immune system.

    Most of bacteria is good. There are around 100 trillion microbial cells in our bodies. Outnumbering human cells 10 to 1. So we are more bacteria then ourselves. We are functioning together as a super organism. Genes that control our placenta growth in our immune system appear to be viral in origin. Half of our DNA was shaped by viruses.
