Should I worry about being tired all the time?

Zonked, frazzled, drained, pooped, knackered, running on fumes – or just totally exhausted. In much the same way that the Shona-speaking people of Zimbabwe have a dozen verbs for walking, our modern vocabulary seems to have developed 20 ways of explaining that we are quite tired, most of the time. But is there anything about 21st-century life – our screen addictions, side-hustle culture or always-on mindsets – that means we are more tired, or...

My husband finds life easy, and ‘corrects’ me because I don’t

The question I am mid-40s and married. My husband is good at dealing with life. He never worries, is never insecure, always positive, has unlimited energy and always has a solution for everything. He deals with our kids seemingly without effort, doesn’t set many rules and never worries if they eat enough vegetables or go to bed too late. Everything is a breeze; rules are to be broken and life must be enjoyed. I am not like that. I like to abide...

I’m 60 – and want to live to 100. Will my years of drinking and inactivity be a problem?

I am sitting in a consulting room, talking through the results of an unusually thorough health check. The doctor seems happy with most of them, but he lingers on the squiggly lines of my ECG – a chart of the electrical signals in my heart. He’s found something called a “prolonged PR interval”. I’m very happily married to a PR, so this sounds quite pleasant, but then he explains that P and R are points on the squiggly lines, and that I probably...

The 10 Greatest Dog Breeds For Your Lifestyle

🔥 Check out more videos: @ViralBe Nowadays, it is very difficult to find a good friend. A friend whom you can trust, feel safe with, and who will be loyal to you in any situation or phase of life you are going through. This might not be surprising, as life is a struggle for survival, and people have been shaped over thousands of years to survive in any event or situation. However, fortunately for us, we have a guaranteed friend, and that is the dog. Ever since humans and wolves somehow found peace in the struggle for food, they became our right hand. Since then, they have not only aided in our development but have remained our most loyal friends, surpassing even humans themselves. An old Albanian saying goes, "A good friend is worth more than a sack of gold." And I say that having a dog as a friend is worth more than two sacks of gold. The purpose of this video is not to push you to buy or adopt a dog. But if you are a dog lover and want to find your ideal friend, not just for their loyalty, as all breeds are loyal, but to match your lifestyle, whether you already have one or want to create one. So, for this episode, I have listed 10 breeds with different characteristics that have the greatest potential to fit well with various lifestyles.

Stressed, sweaty and remorseful, I arrived late for dinner again – and then made a life-changing decision

If you had asked me to describe myself one year ago, I would have led with this: I am that person who is always late. I could have also said I am 5ft 7in and love coriander, but then you wouldn’t have been forewarned: being friends with me involves a lot of waiting. Ugh, sorry in advance. Then this happened. One day, I had an appointment just before meeting friends for dinner. When it ended early, I went straight to the restaurant and waited at...

Calorie-starving slowed down my metabolism – this is what I did to lose a stone

This time last year I was feeling really depressed about my weight. In the previous 18 months, I’d put on a huge amount, mainly on my stomach, and because I’m short – just over 5’1” –  I looked pregnant. But I was at a total loss about what to do about it; I felt like I ate relatively healthily, opting for low-calorie meals and often avoiding carbs...

Something that I worked hard at, for sure, but something that gave me kudos. Keeping fit – I mean, really fit – seemed to me an...
