For a long time, I thought meditation was for yogis in white pants or for those who went to Tibet to seek enlightenment. I'm a working woman in a country at war; I don't have time for "om." Or at least, I thought I didn't.

When you work as an oncologist, you get used to the word "prognosis." But life isn't statistics. This summer was difficult: the air smelled of anxiety, not flowers. And yet, I saw people smiling in the wards. So, hope isn't about the sun. It's about us.

Good afternoon, dear men! Today I'd like to talk about autumn and its wise, tranquil season.

Good afternoon, gentlemen! How did you spend this summer? How many memorable moments have you cherished?

A friend recently told me, "Yana, you're crazy. You bought a coffee maker for 20,000, but you've been wearing your boots for three seasons now." And you know, she's right. But only half right.

I was sitting in a café, working quietly, when I noticed something simple but strangely powerful. A young woman accidentally dropped her wallet near the entrance. She didn’t notice it and walked away. A few seconds later, an older man sitting nearby stood up, picked it up, and followed her outside.

On August 24, 2026, Ukraine celebrates 35 years of independence. This is the number of years since Ukraine declared its independence in 1991.

Ukraine celebrates special days-Ukrainian Flag Day on August 23rd and Independence Day on August 24th 💙💛

Right now, probably half the people would say, "What's wrong with you?"

People aren't as bothered about you as you think

The story of how women tried swimming in a dress made of newspaper.

I was just calmly going about my business when I suddenly saw this huge arch of bright, fresh flowers and literally became engrossed in it for half an hour. ✨

I just got in the car, opened the sunroof all the way, and drove off. Summer in my hometown is my greatest and most unconditional love!

Yesterday I bought a whole bunch of new jars at the store and decided to give myself a hardcore, uncompromising spa day right at home!

I went out onto the balcony to catch the last rays of light before the sun completely set behind the neighboring houses. This is officially the best part of my day, honestly! 😌
