People In Their 50s And 60s Who Feel Decades Younger Ignore One Outdated Rule About Aging | Allura Joy

Published by Jenni Sidey

Maturity can be a good thing, especially when it comes to fine wine, aged cheese, or ripe, delicious fruit. But as a state of mind, maturity can sometimes be prudish and boring. Exactly the reason why Peter Pan never wanted to grow up. To “defy maturity” is to forget about what age you are and how you are supposed to act. Do and say whatever you want (as long as it’s not offensive). Wear stripes and polka-dots together. Laugh out loud in the movie theater, even if you’re the only one. Fly a kite out of your sunroof while driving down the highway. Spend the day at a water park, get wet, dirty, sweaty, and stinky. Have fun. It really doesn’t matter how old you are or what quirky things bring you joy. It is all about the attitude and how you feel when you’re thoroughly enjoying yourself. Science agrees that smiling and laughing are vital for healthy aging, as they give others permission to express joy and share happiness. People in their 50s and …

Oh, and FYI — prices are accurate and items in stock as of time of publication. You book your flights, hire a car, decide where to stay and what to do. The holiday excitement is building. But somehow, when it comes down to it, you don’t want to pack. As a firm believer that packing is the worst task of the holiday (especially when you’ve made some misguided purchases you have to squeeze into your luggage coming home) I always put it off until the last minute. Unsurprisingly, this has often resulted in being completely underprepared for any realistic situation I might find myself in (and overprepared for the imaginary scenarios in my head). Most often, I end up so overpacked it’s impossible to unravel anything I need without sprinkling …

The Parmesan-Eating, Espresso-Swilling Passion of Italian Baseball

The Parmesan-Eating, Espresso-Swilling Passion of Italian Baseball

Published by Sam Flores

Then there is the elegance, of course, as evidenced by the Giorgio Armani jackets the coach wanted for his team. “I remember USA ’94 well, the World Cup,” Cervelli says. “I was an Italy fan and cried for an hour after Roberto Baggio’s missed penalty.” “During that tournament,” he continues, “I was impressed by the elegance of the Azzurri, impeccable in their sports jackets. When they arrived at the hotel or when they entered the stadium, those champions already gave the idea of their class and strength through their clothes.” That team, like many others in Azzurri history, was also noted for the food they carried in duffel bags from one side of the ccean to the other “We do the same,” Cervelli says. “In the clubhouse we have parmesan aged 24 months, Tuscan extra virgin olive oil. The players are crazy about it, and Italy is also in these details.” He is ready to continue his valuable work all over our peninsula. Giorgio Armani’s signature jacket: elegance above all else.

Emmerdale airs shock passion for Graham Foster after Rhona ultimatum

Published by Daniella Wilson

If you’re like us, you’re probably still reeling from the fact Graham Foster (Andrew Scarborough) has risen from the ashes (quite literally) in Emmerdale. The businessman ‘returned from the dead’ during the Coronation Street crossover, Corriedale, and explained that he’d faked his demise to avoid a hit from ex-wife Kim Tate (Claire King) and to protect then-girlfriend Rhona Goskirk (Zoe Henry) from further heartbreak. Little did he realise, her eventual husband Marlon Dingle (Mark Charnock) would be sent down for his murder. Six years passed, and the last person she thought she expected to land on her doorstep was Graham. He revealed that he’d heard on the grapevine about the trouble her stepdaughter April Windsor (Amelia Flanagan) was in, and wanted to help. Ultimately, the job was done for him by Bear Wolf (Joshua Richards), who throttled her groomer Ray Walters (Joe Absolom). Graham Foster (Andrew Scarborough) asked Rhona Goskirk (Zoe Henry) to meet him on the bridge. ITV Graham then slowly introduced himself back to village life – shocking surrogate son Joe Tate (Ned Porteous) …

Return of Fallout, Paradise and Silo fuels passion for bunker sci-fi

Published by skeptic

Fallout’s society includes vault-dwellers (shown here) and those stuck topside Lorenzo Sisti/Prime This is the year of the bunker – at least, it is on TV. We kicked off in January, just as season two of Fallout (Amazon Prime Video) was getting going. It is a lively alternate history, set hundreds of years after the US was nuked, with a privileged few now living in subterranean “vaults”, while the rest inhabit a topside wasteland of monsters and mercenaries. Vault-dweller Lucy is looking for her villainous father Hank, accompanied by The Ghoul, an irradiated gunslinger with no nose but buckets of gruff charm. Then came Paradise (Disney+), returning for its second season this month. The cataclysm here is a volcano-induced mega-tsunami that has ended civilisation, causing the US elite to retreat beneath a mountain in Colorado. Having tracked down the killer of US President Cal Bradford, secret service agent Xavier Collins has heard of survivors and sets off to find his wife Terri, while political machinations continue inside the Colarado bunker. And later this year, season …

Malinin’s fans agree that this cocktail of power and beauty has been key to his success. “He is a spectacular technician, like Simone Biles, doing things nobody else can do,” says Weir. “Artistically, he is unique and can create a mood and experience in his own way that nobody can replicate.” “What you get from Ilia is pure energy, pure youth, pure technical ability and invention,” says Wang. “It’s a whole new vocabulary in how to choreograph a program, the speed you’re moving these jumps at, the devil-may-care abandon.” Malinin’s Instagram, where he goes by the handle @quadg0d—chosen, he admits, long before he had earned it—has nearly 300,000 followers. “People kept saying, ‘Why’d you do this?

High passion without intimacy linked to severe psychological aggression in relationships

High passion without intimacy linked to severe psychological aggression in relationships

Published by José Betancourt

New research published in Violence Against Women identifies distinct profiles of love in romantic relationships and links them to varying risks of psychological abuse. The findings indicate that relationships characterized primarily by passion, but lacking intimacy and commitment, are associated with higher levels of severe psychological aggression and controlling behaviors. Psychological intimate partner violence is a pervasive public health issue that violates women’s human rights. While physical and sexual violence are often the focus of public discourse, psychological abuse is equally damaging and widespread. This form of violence includes behaviors intended to control, manipulate, or inflict emotional harm on a partner. It can manifest as verbal aggression, intimidation, isolation from friends and family, and threats. Statistics from the World Health Organization estimate that nearly one-third of women globally have been subjected to violence by an intimate partner. Psychological violence specifically is reported at high rates, with some surveys in the European Union showing a prevalence of over 40 percent. The consequences of such abuse are severe and long-lasting. Victims often suffer from chronic pain, digestive …

The Lover Archetype & What Jung Revealed About Passion and Connection

The Lover Archetype & What Jung Revealed About Passion and Connection

Published by Sam Flores

  What makes us love things—whether they’re other people, songs, evening skies, stories, or simply being alive? Carl Jung thought that deep within us all are powerful inner patterns, which he called archetypes, that shape our thoughts, emotions, and relationships. And one of the most profound is the Lover.   But Jung’s Lover isn’t just about sexuality. It has a far wider brief, including deep emotional bonds, beauty, creativity, and a yearning for meaningful connection.   Below, we will examine how the Lover archetype can provide insight into love, art, and self-understanding. Are we embracing life through our emotions or becoming trapped in an endless yearning? Let’s discover more.   Understanding the Lover Archetype The Kiss, Edvard Munch, 1897. Source: The MET   According to Carl Jung, the Lover archetype is an incredibly passionate and emotionally complex character from the collective unconscious.   Where the Hero looks for conquest, and the Shadow hides away things we fear, the Lover wants, above all, to feel things deeply, connect with them completely, and live with ever-increasing intensity. …
