Practice Self-Care
And all these things need to be done on the base of the Foundation of Healing—Caring for oneself. Healing is more than just what takes place when you’re ill or feeling poorly. It’s about creating the conditions that allow for well-being to flourish in all aspects of your life — emotionally, physically, mentally and spiritually. Self-care is the heart of recovery from traumatization because it helps us find our balance, resilience and soul-health. It requires intention, presence, and intention.

7 Signs Counseling Might Help a Struggling Family Household
Family stress tends to build without much warning. Tension becomes part of the routine, showing up in quiet withdrawals, frequent sighs, or constant irritability. As stress becomes more deeply embedded in everyday moments, it slowly reshapes how family members interact. When harmony feels replaced by survival, counseling often becomes the bridge back to emotional clarity.

Love and Care
The evening light was beginning to fade. A soft golden hue spread across the edge of the sky, as if the day was preparing for its final farewell. In a quiet corner of a small town stood an old house walls flaking with worn out paint, wooden railings slowly decaying. Yet, the house carried a silent kind of charm. There lived Rahim Uncle, all by himself. He was nearly seventy, with white hair, thick glasses, and an old novel always in hand.

True Hearts
In a quiet village nestled between green hills and flowing rivers, lived two childhood friends — Ayaan and Zoya. From the moment they could walk, they were inseparable. While others played and argued, Ayaan would always be the one to hold Zoya’s hand when she was scared, and Zoya would be the first to defend Ayaan if someone teased him for his quiet nature.

Should You Agree To Take A Break From Your Marriage If It Means Saving It?
I often write about saving your marriage and preventing divorce. One of the tips I often give is that if the husband is just not responsive to your attempts to save the marriage, has one foot out the door, and you are just not getting through to him, you should (as a last resort) agree that a break is needed. This is because agreeing will greatly lessen the tension and any of the walls that he is putting up to block your attempts at reconciliation. In essence, agreeing with your husband is meant to buy you time and make the job of saving the marriage ultimately easier. In this article, I will clarify what I mean when I say that there are situations where you should agree with your husband when you are trying to prevent a divorce or save a marriage.

When A Husband Admits He Sometimes Loves His Wife, But Sometimes Doesn't - What Does It Mean? What Should You Do?
I sometimes hear from wives who are completely shaken when their husband says something like, “Sometimes I DON’T love you,” or “Sometimes, I don’t know how I feel about you anymore.” And sometimes, he doesn’t willingly say this. You have to coax it out of him, so you know he’s not just saying it for effect.

Face Cleanser with Salicylic Acid for Deep Cleansing
When it comes to skincare, cleansing is the foundation of a healthy routine. Without a proper cleanse, even the most expensive serums or moisturizers won’t work effectively. One ingredient that continues to make waves in the world of skincare is salicylic acid, a powerful beta hydroxy acid (BHA) known for its ability to penetrate deep into pores and clear out dirt, oil, and acne-causing bacteria. That’s why many dermatologists and beauty enthusiasts recommend using a face cleanser with salicylic acid if you’re looking for a product that goes beyond surface-level cleaning.
