"When I did a body composition test at 36, I had way more body fat than I expected," Cheema says. "That pushed me to change my workouts and eating patterns in ways that improved my health-something BMI alone wouldn't have prompted."

As human activities alter local-to-global environments, people are reporting stress, distress, depression, anxiety, worry, psychological trauma, and other negative emotions. Phrases coined to describe these responses include solastalgia, eco-anxiety, climate change anxiety, climate fear, and ecological grief. Scientifically, all these ideas are in their infancy. To improve understanding and to really get to the basics of how human beings respond to different environmental changes, researchers are developing scales and indices, some of which are clinical and some of which are not.

Do you find yourself being harshly self-critical after you've made a mistake or failed to meet a personal goal? Familiar self-statements might be: "I can't seem to do anything right!" or "I'm just not talented enough." Maybe you falsely assume that you must be harsh with yourself in hopes of getting better results next time. What you might not know is that your self-criticism may be making it less likely that you'll succeed in the future.

This week, I had the pleasure of attending the Baltimore premiere of a new offbeat romcom, The Baltimorons. To put it plainly: The film is magic, the kind that can only happen when there's a deeply honest story being told over a backdrop that also, somehow, manages to tell its own story at the same time. Strassner and Larsen? Epic chemistry. Baltimore? Hardly a third wheel, but a star in its own right.

My dad can come in a room and be mad about something, but it doesn't change the dynamic or energy of the room. We don't internalize his feels. His feelings don't set the mood for of the room.

Itdeclares that if urban neighborhoods, mid-size and small communities, and rural areas worldwide organize local resilience networks that provide Mutual Support For All, the mental health, psychosocial, and many physical health issues generated by the C-E-B crisis can be prevented, when symptoms appear they can be healed, and people can find positive new sources of meaning, purpose, and healthy hope in life, and thrive.

In an era of permacrisis, what lifts your spirits? We're interested to hear from people about the small, everyday actions that have bought you joy when you've been feeling down. It could be starting a conversation with a stranger, taking a family walk, doing karaoke or spontaneous skinny dipping - the less expected, the better. Please include a sentence or two about why you were in a slump (perhaps it was after a bad break-up, or during a particularly stressful time at work?)

As human beings, each of us is at once perfect and a work in progress. As we grow and expand our knowledge and understanding of the world, we sometimes experience setbacks and failures. We sometimes make mistakes. Some of those mistakes, long after we have made them, loom large in our minds and persist in our thoughts, so much so that we are burdened with regret and remorse for the hurt and harm we have caused others.

Health campaigners united with voluntary groups and local authorities to remind those feeling vulnerable that help and support is available to them. Lord Mayor of Cork Councillor Fergal Dennehy said the council was a proud supporter of the Connected For Life programme to help reduce self harm rates. Health Service Executive suicide prevent officer Martin Ryan said support is available for those at risk of self harm.

"I throw up every day before work now. When I hear his voice, I shake. I can't sleep, and I've lost weight. This job is killing me!" she cried. Kathy worked for a bullying boss whose recent tirades escalated to an unbearable level. The last straw for Kathy occurred when her boss stomped up behind her and slammed a large report binder on her desk, startling her.

SANTO DOMINGO, Dominican Republic -- Suspended Tampa Bay Rays shortstop Wander Franco, who was found guilty earlier this year of sexually abusing a minor, was detained by police on Tuesday and admitted into a clinic in the Dominican Republic for mental health issues, according to authorities. The request to have him detained and admitted came from his family, police spokesman Col. Diego Pesqueira told The Associated Press. He noted that Franco's admittance into a private clinic in his hometown of Baní

Unfortunately, this excludes my late father's second wife, Bonnie, who has been in our lives for nearly 40 years. My son has no particular problem with Bonnie, but she has struggled with mental health issues over the years, and at times her behavior created friction within the family. She has made no effort to welcome my son's fiancee to the family, and, as a result, he feels no strong desire to include her.

Her instructors had warned her that if she wanted a real shot at making it as an actress in the US, she'd have to "fix" her accent. Paltrow's voice - crisp, polished, "full of money," as Gatsby says of Daisy's - became the model. "My teachers were like, Gwyneth Paltrow will be your way in," Novi recalls. When she came across the Goop tutorial, something clicked.

It is vital to remember that feeling well is related to doing well. In fact, research supports students' well-being is tied to their academic performance. In one study of 3,400 high school students, those with greater well-being were more likely to have higher academic scores 7-8 months later. Further, teaching well-being at schools has been shown to have a profound increase on academic performance.

In a wide-ranging new study for the journal Nature Human Behavior looking at data from nearly 15 million people, researchers from institutions in the Denmark, Taiwan, and the United States found that both members of couples in those disparate cultures often share mental health diagnoses - and that it's been that way for more than half a century.

Perfectionism is philosophically encapsulated by an existential conviction. Many perfectionists are not only certain of the objective validity of their rigid way of living; they're also emboldened by the sense that their lives have an objective meaning, afforded to them in the way a god may grant his messiah a grand objective. Peers and loved ones question the perfectionist's obsessiveness because its root is often hidden, protected from the slings and arrows of reason. Perfectionism persists in large part because it remains unchallenged.
