Early studies are showing that the health benefits come from the relationship between our bodies and the electrons in the earth1. The planet has its own natural charge, and we seem to do better when we’re in direct contact with it. Another study found that earthing changed the electrical activity in the brain2, as measured by electroencephalograms. Still other research found that grounding benefitted skin conductivity, moderated heart rate variability, improved glucose regulation, reduced stress and supported immune function3....

People can get constricted by narrow definitions of what constitutes a relationship, including expectations that they must be monogamous, must be between men and women, must be marriage-oriented, must involve five days a week spent glued at the hip, must involve a certain amount of sex, and many other rules. But in reality, relationships aren’t one-size-fits-all. “Relationship labels are not good or bad; what works for some may not work for others,” sex and relationship therapist Shadeen Francis, LMFT, tells mbg....

It doesn’t matter how many down dogs and guided meditations you do—we’re all susceptible to stress. And while my go-to routines usually keep things even-keeled, my stress levels recently took an uncharacteristic climb, thanks to some life transitions. On top of that, years of teaching have left me with a moody low back that flares up during times of tension. I needed to find a new approach to all things stress, which brought me to the CHI Palm....

Short answer? It might be, for a number of reasons (not all of them permanent). And while you can’t exactly fix a receding hairline overnight, there are ways to stop the recession in its tracks, even reverse the damage in some cases. For what it’s worth: Women can experience androgenetic alopecia—or female-pattern baldness—as well. It just looks a little bit different on the scalp (more on that later). Men and women can also suffer from thyroid issues or mineral deficiencies, which can contribute to noticeable hair loss....

This is because a twin flame will show you your deepest insecurities, fears, and shadows—but also help you overcome them. In some cases, twin flames can help each other grow and heal together, but at other times, twin flames are not always meant to stay together forever and rather facilitate growth during that period in your lives....

The principle of energetic flow in the philosophy of yoga overlaps with the ideas of traditional Chinese energetics. As we move our body in an asana, we dance in both our energy and that of our surroundings. When our consciousness surrenders into the universal, a radiance grows until we blossom into a fuller expression often resulting in a sense of timelessness, a feeling of joy, or a laugh.
