The eyebrows reflect our temperament
If the eyes are the reflection of the soul, the eyebrows would reveal our personality. Are you ready to compete with a mentalist? "Short eyebrows" belong to people who are struggling to overcome their stress and also tend to shy away from their friends' worries. The "long eyebrows" embrace, on the contrary, all the difficulty of a problem, having a warlike nature of war knowing how to cope with their own stress. "Thick eyebrows" are very active, confident and enjoy doing their job. "Fine eyebrows" or almost nonexistent are people who can doubt themselves, swallowing what is said about them. "Highly worked eyebrows" also lack self-confidence and struggle to make decisions. The "too curved eyebrows" are perceived as haughty when they need to know their surroundings to engage more; they are perfectionists. "Rounded eyebrows" are diplomatic, courteous, very sociable. "Right eyebrows" are logical people who put aside their emotions to make a decision. Written by David
The Art of Cultivating Well-being After Retirement
Retirement marks a significant stage in life, a transition to a well-deserved period of rest. However, post-retirement well-being doesn't automatically build itself; it requires special attention and a thoughtful approach.
It's essential to maintain an active life, whether physically or intellectually. Activities like walking, swimming, or reading contribute to mental and physical health, ensuring an active and fulfilling retirement.

Proper planning allows you to strike a balance between leisure, travel, and volunteer work, while ensuring enough time for rest and rejuvenation.
Retirement is an opportunity to dedicate time to long-neglected activities or explore new horizons, promoting a sense of personal fulfillment.
In conclusion, well-being after retirement is an art that demands active investment in physical, social, and mental health, as well as the pursuit of personal passions and goals. A fulfilling retirement is built by deliberately taking care of oneself and one's relationships. Written by Zagon
Our sleeping position reflects our personality
When we surrender ourselves to sleep, we let go and free ourselves from our minds. We do not always sleep in the same position, it is indicative of the variations of our moods. But the position we adopt most often is one that puts us at ease and reveals traits of our personality. Position of the log: legs straight and stretched, back straight and arms along the body reveal a sociable person, at ease, and who likes to attend people well positioned socially but they are a little naive and innocent. Position of the suitor: arms forward: these people are open to others but are also more suspicious and cynical, think a lot and once their decision is made, they never come back on it. Position of the soldier: arm along the body: these sleepers are stable, loyal, a little secret, ambitious but do not like to make a splash. Free fall position: sleeping on your stomach, with arms under the pillow: these sleepers are great dreamers, sociable, rebellious, teasing, free and stressed. Position of the starfish: sleeping on the back, arms stretched over the pillow and stretched legs: these sleepers love to help others and place their friends in the center of their lives. Position of the fetus: knees drawn towards the body and lying on the side: these sleepers are of great sensitivity in spite of a harder facade; they think too much and have an uneasy nature.

Kava to be calm and in a good mood
Native to the Pacific Islands, this plant is not like the others. In Polynesia it is used in ritual ceremonies because, in large doses, it modifies the state of consciousness and helps to enter a trance. But in more reasonable doses, it calms nervousness and soothes tension, it regulates mood and awakens the joy of living. It can both facilitate waking and good mood in the morning and improve sleep at night. A German study has shown that some of its components, kavactalones, are as effective against anxiety as chemical molecules (benzodiazepines), without inducing addiction. But Kava is not allowed for sale in France. And we must remain vigilant about orders on online herbalist sites Kava pills because counterfeits abound. To relieve anxiety, you can always fall back on hops, passionflower, St. John's wort or valerian. Written by David

Blueberry, ideal for the eyes
Small dark blue edible berry, fruit of blueberry, blueberry grows in the mountainous regions. The harvest takes place during the summer and part of autumn. What we do not necessarily know about this little treasure is that it improves the view. Discoride praised its virtues, which "tighten the belly," de Villeneuve attributed to it anti-hemorrhoidal faculties. In short, its reputation is second to none. With its vitamins A and C in large quantities, its flavones, its quinine acid, its fatty acids, the blueberry is a treasure that improves eyesight and protects the eyes from common problems like the dangers of prolonged exposure to television screens or of PC. It also improves night vision, it acts in the ocular microcirculation, it reduces visual fatigue and protects and corrects cataracts. Do not hesitate to consume in July, August and September. But you can take it now because dried blueberries are sold in any good organic shop. Written by David
What If You Started Meditating?
Meditation, an ancient practice, has gained popularity in recent years due to its numerous mental and physical health benefits.
This simple yet profound discipline offers a variety of advantages for those who engage in it regularly.
First and foremost, meditation promotes stress reduction. By focusing on your breath and allowing thoughts to pass without judgment, it calms the mind, reduces cortisol levels (the stress hormone), and encourages deep relaxation.
It also enhances concentration and mental clarity. Meditation strengthens the ability to concentrate on the present moment, improves memory, and stimulates creativity. Written by Zagon
Make a sparkling smile
If you are still not convinced of whitening toothpastes you buy in supermarkets, you can make one at "home". They are recognized by the majority of their users as effective. After all, it is enough to try to understand that we are able to do good with our own means, and even more so if these means are healthy, natural and produce good results. To do this, mix a teaspoon of turmeric powder with the same amount of coconut oil and two or three drops of mint. This mixture is intended to protect your enamel, whiten your teeth, of course and refresh your breath. Another mixture is recommended: get tea tree oil which you dilute five drops of pure oil in half a glass of water: after you brush your teeth you will not forget you rinse the mouth. The effect will be visible after a few weeks. You will have a sparkling smile that will illuminate your meetings. Written by David
Hygiene habits
It's never too late to escape from germs this season. Let's review these little things to do regularly to preserve our health. Change your bath towel often enough and do not forget to dry it between each use because it is a real nest of bacteria. In the kitchen, a recent study revealed that our trusty coffee machine is a good place for bacteria to grow if the capsule container is not cleaned regularly with an antibacterial product. Ditto for your vegetable crisper that needs to be cleaned once a month on average because the fruits or vegetables we store in it can deposit soil. Smartphones must also be cleaned with wipes for glasses because they follow you everywhere in our daily lives. And finally, perhaps the most important rule is to wash your hands so as not to contaminate the objects in your environment. Without becoming paranoid, of course, just good habits and that's all.
