Metal desks are great for focus, but they may be cold. Warm them up with a houseplant (more on those later!) or wooden fruit bowl. Ideally, you’ll be able to position your desk so you have a clear view of the door (and anyone who is approaching) when you’re sitting down. But if you can’t move your desk to command the room, you can place a mirror on your desk so you can see what’s behind you....
We absolutely love that many multivitamin companies are shifting to vegan formulas, but many fail to include critical micronutrients that plant-based individuals often struggle to consume enough of from diet alone. “Modern multivitamins feature a comprehensive formula (read: complete lineup of fat- and water-soluble vitamins, macrominerals, and microminerals) while simultaneously delivering powerful botanical phytonutrients like carotenoids (e.g., beta-carotene, lutein, zeaxanthin, lycopene) and antioxidant powerhouses (e.g., resveratrol, glutathione),”* mbg’s vice president of scientific affairs, Ashley Jordan Ferira, Ph....
I wrote an article about the local French school cafeteria that went viral around the globe. The French found it so incredible that the rest of the world was interested in their school lunches that the national news interviewed me for a story about my article on mindbodygreen (if you speak French have a look here).

“It is normal for some people to not feel good when they first wake up,” MacFarlane says. “They’re going to be zombies for 20 minutes whether they’ve slept 12 hours or 2 hours.” Waking up in the middle of deeper sleep stages like REM sleep or slow-wave sleep also seems to make sleep inertia worse. While sleep inertia only lasts for a few minutes for some people, others feel it for longer....
Read on for a list of common therapeutic approaches, how they work, and how to choose the modality that will best ensure you’ll feel meaningfully seen and heard. “It strives to help clients increase self-reflection and self-examination and thus improve their ability to relate to others, make choices and create a life they would like to live,” Garcia defines. This approach helps those seeking treatment for addictions, personality disorders, self-esteem, anxiety, depression, relationship issues, worthlessness, and schizophrenia....
But while we may be well aware of the changes that might result after taking birth control, we rarely hear what happens after women stop. For the next six months I had seemingly normal periods. But then my monthly bleeding stopped completely from January 2015 until June. Turns out my body forgot how to have a normal period! The bleeding I’d experienced before was just hormone withdrawal. I was so worried while waiting for it to return, and I wish doctors had been better about informing me of all the changes my body would go through with hormones....
Angel numbers are a synchronicity, or a meaningful coincidence—divine guidance from angels and the universe. Keep in mind angel numbers are just one type of sign, and you can receive a sign or synchronicity in countless ways. If you think something you overhear in line at a store, a book or movie recommendation from a friend, an animal who crosses your path, a helpful person showing up in your life, or a song that comes on the radio might be synchronistic divine guidance, pay attention to how you feel when it happens....
