Many people love order. For some, it’s just a habit, for others, it’s a way to calm the mind. But sometimes the question arises: when does the desire for cleanliness become a reason to worry about mental health?

When it comes to favorite dishes, I always come back to one thing — mushroom julienne. Delicate mushrooms, creamy sauce, golden crust of cheese… Every time I take a spoon, it seems like a small piece of happiness.

The weekend is the best time to take a break from the hustle and bustle and immerse yourself in nature. This time I decided to go to the forest for mushrooms, and it turned out to be not just a walk, but a real little adventure.

Sometimes you want to believe in miracles: so that everything becomes simpler, faster and easier. And then the image of a “magic pill” appears in your head - a small tablet that solves all your problems at once. But what is it really?

Have you ever noticed that sometimes just believing that a treatment will help actually makes you feel better? This is the placebo effect - an amazing phenomenon in which our expectations influence real physiological processes in the body.

There are many ways to relax after a stressful day, but for me the best relaxation is photography. With a camera in your hands, the world turns into a little magic: each frame is a moment that I want to save forever.

Today, we are all used to storing memories on our phones. You click photos, scroll through the feed and sometimes forget that it is the captured moments that make life truly valuable. And I like photos that you can touch, smell and flip through again and again.

Morning is magic, when the whole world seems to wake up with you. And there is nothing better than starting the day with a walk in the park: a light breeze plays with your hair, and the sun's rays break through the leaves, creating a golden light around.

Every morning we face the ritual of waking up: some immediately reach for a cup of aromatic coffee, while others - for a mat for morning exercises. But what really helps to wake up and recharge with energy for the whole day?

We all dream. Some of us dream big goals, some of us dream small joys, but each of us at least once thought: "What will happen when the dream comes true?" And this is a really important question. After all, achieving a dream is not the end of the road, but the beginning of a new chapter.

How many times have we heard the phrase: "Dreams are for children"? And how many times have we allowed fear, doubts, or the opinions of others to push our desires into the background? Today I want to remind you: a dream is fuel for the soul, and giving up on it means depriving yourself of the energy to truly live.

A legal marriage is a formality, a piece of paper that says nothing about how a person really feels about you.

Many come with light words, with smiles, with promises, but quickly disappear when faced with sincerity.

I don’t know how to explain it to those who grew up among the asphalt and shop window lights, but honesty is in our blood. We don’t hide our emotions behind masks, we don’t build facades for other people’s eyes.

Yes, we make mistakes. In relationships, in life, and in judgments about people. But for some reason we often refuse to listen to those who can see the situation differently.

Not about someone making you feel good, but about who will “break” whom faster. And you know what’s weird?

There are people who see the rain and immediately hide under a blanket. And there are those who begin to live in a new way in the rain. I found a way for myself to turn such a day into a small holiday.

Sometimes a work of art turns out to be stronger than the city where it is exhibited. But when Italy meets art, the effect is doubled.

This is not about productivity or the “right lifestyle.” It’s about small habits that make the morning mine, not someone else’s.

Sometimes it seems that nature can paint better than any artist. I found myself in a place where every stone, every shade of water and every turn of the path formed a whole picture.
