You probably would have seen it happen around you, people updating their LinkedIn headline three times in a week, worried it doesn’t sound distinctive or out of the ordinary. Even teenagers who spend hours editing a photo or rewriting a caption, just to make it “different” enough to stand out. All of this is often driven by our […]

Have you ever smelled a childhood dish and suddenly felt transported to your grandmother’s kitchen? Or heard a song from your teenage years and been instantly pulled back into the rush of first crushes and carefree evenings? This is our brain turning our memories into an emotional time machine, called nostalgia. When we look back, the colours seem

You forget a small detail during a presentation and are certain that everyone noticed the mistake. Later, you find out that nobody even realised it.

It starts with a quick glance at the news. A headline catches your eye: war, disaster, injustice. You scroll, another crisis, another tragedy. Before you know it, you’ve spent 20 minutes consuming stories that leave your chest tight and your thoughts spinning. Many of us feel a low-grade anxiety buzzing in the background of our

Movement therapy, particularly dance and rhythmic practices, taps into our body’s innate capacity to self-regulate, express, and release.
