Tapping therapy for mind and body: Can something this simple really work?
All over the world, there are people getting into tapping therapy. They say its East-West approach helps them with stress and ill health. More and more experts agree.

Help, I’m 50 and it’s only going downhill from here! To what extent does our decline happen because we expect it?

While some of these things happen because we’re getting older, do some also happen because we expect them? And, more importantly, can we age better if we expect better? In other words, can positive ageing help us age more healthily?

During our busy day, we can focus on all the things that can go wrong. Or we can spot Glimmers. The term comes from trauma specialist Deb Dana and is used by people all over the world.
