This week I discuss a fascinating research paper that changes how we think about salt and blood pressure.

This week I discuss a fascinating research paper that changes how we think about salt and blood pressure.

Do you really need to watch your salt intake? The science is much more nuanced than Doctors think - Wisdom Wednesdays

This week on Mojo Monday, Carly explores something many of us experience: replaying conversations in our minds and wondering if we said the right thing. Why do social interactions sometimes leave us doubting ourselves? Carly reflects on the quiet pressure we often place on ourselves to be interesting, articulate, or insightful in conversations, and how that pressure can fuel our inner critic. Drawing on ideas from Japanese psychology, particularly Morita therapy, she shares a simple shift that can help conversations feel more natural: moving our attention away from how we’re performing and toward genuine curiosity and presence with the person in front of us.
