Keeping the Mind Young: Science-Backed Ways to Slow Brain Ageing
As we age, we often expect wrinkles, weaker bones, or slower movement — but what truly worries most people is the ageing of the mind. Forgetting names, losing focus, or feeling mentally fatigued can be frightening signs that our brain is changing. Yet, science is uncovering hopeful news: the brain is not a machine doomed to wear out. It’s a living, adaptable organ capable of renewal, repair, and growth at any age — if we give it the right conditions.

The End of Spontaneity: Why Every Plan Feels Like Work Now. AI-Generated.
There was a time when spontaneity was considered the highest proof of freedom. Someone would call you at midnight, whisper “let’s go grab fries”, and the next thing you knew, you were in a neon-lit diner, telling secrets you wouldn’t remember the next morning.

Your Body Definitely Keeps The Score . Top Story - October 2025.
That is one massive (albeit alarming) statistic. No wonder why we can all feel a bit f*cked up, or the world certainly does, if our garden has been watered accordingly, and all of the relevant weeds have been pulled out - metaphorically speaking of course. The author of the book by the same title (The Body Keeps The Score), Bessel van der Kolk paves the way for a grounding, heavy, eye opening yet awesome read into the human psyche; and (of course) trauma plays a significant role. All of our not so positive thoughts and setbacks to teach us lesson after lesson are all the epitome of trauma.
