For example, a Type Two’s wings are One and Three. There is debate about whether every type is equally influenced by its two wings (known as two-wing theory) or if only one of your wings is the dominant wing that affects your personality (known as one-wing theory). In one-wing theory, a person’s full Enneagram type is expressed with both their main type and associated wing together. So a Type Two could be a 2w1 (a Type Two with a One wing) or a 2w3 (a Type Two with a Three wing)....

We spoke to an inventor of the Flow Hive as well as a few backyard beekeepers to find out exactly how the product works, its pros and cons, and how to best use it to keep yourself (and your bees!) safe. To get honey out of a conventional beehive, you need to remove one of the hive’s frames at a time, brush off the bees, and carry the frame to a device called a centrifuge, which extracts honey from the honeycombs....

The four main heavy metals that can cause health issues are mercury, lead, arsenic, and cadmium. The U.S. Food & Drug Administration1 monitors levels of these “big four” heavy metals in food and drinking water, but some sources inevitably fall through the cracks. (Take the high levels of lead in the water in Flint, Michigan, for example.) Here are four sources of heavy metals to look out for and avoid consuming in high doses....

Our brains are filled with GABA receptors. When activated, these receptors trigger a chain reaction that reduces neural firing and brain cell activity. “GABA interaction with its receptors increases the threshold for cells to become reactive. It relaxes the cells and inhibits reactivity,” explains integrative neurologist Ilene Ruhoy, M.D., Ph.D.. When this happens, our stress response dulls, our brains quiet down, and we slip into rest and relaxation mode. Exercising, eating a healthy diet, and practicing relaxation techniques are all ways to support healthy GABA levels in the body naturally....

Gemini, for one thing, is the third sign of the zodiac. It’s a mutable air sign ruled by Mercury, the planet of communication. Its symbol is the twins, representing Gemini’s dual nature—and their propensity for adjusting to different scenarios. Sagittarius, meanwhile, is the ninth sign of the astrological year. It’s a mutable fire sign ruled by Jupiter, the planet of luck and expansion. Sagittarius is symbolized by the Archer (a centaur), and this sign wants to adventure, explore, and be spontaneous....

Grief can impact us all in very different ways, and it can be even more difficult this time of year. Grief can happen in response to loss of life, as well as to drastic changes to our daily routines and ways of life that usually bring us comfort and a feeling of stability. Needless to say, loss was the theme of my year. And grief doesn’t just come from the loss of a loved one....
