There’s a scene in The Help where Aibileen tells two-year-old Mae Mobley, “You is kind, you is smart, you is important.”  It’s the kind of encouragement many of us would love to hear on a daily basis. Unfortunately, not all of us have access to our own personal Aibileen.  So what’s the next best thing? Affirmation cards, little pockets of self-care that can pack a powerful punch. These cards hold a promise of daily empowerment. And for those looking to integrate this practice, Mindvalley offers a complimentary digital deck, thoughtfully designed for the modern seeker.

The Hawaiians know a thing or two about healing. As a matter of fact, their practices, typically passed down through the generations, are deeply woven into the fabric of their lives. One such philosophy is ho’oponopono (pronounced ho-opo-nopo-no), a powerful tool that offers a path to inner peace and harmony. The best part is, it’s understatedly simple. It only takes a few minutes a day. And it might be exactly what you need in this hectic, modern-day life. What is ho’oponopono? This ancient Hawaiian practice is one of reconciliation and forgiveness. But what does ho’oponopono mean exactly? It ..read more

Relationship statuses used to just be “single” or “in a relationship.” Soon after, “it’s complicated” found its way into the mix. Let’s also not forget domestic partnerships, open relationships, friends with benefits, and a whole slew of other terminologies. The latest one to come into our urban dictionary might have you stop to ask, “What is a situationship?”  It’s a term made popular by writer Carina Hseih, who explains it as this: “Relationships sitting at the intersection of ‘hooking up’ and ‘in a relationship. It’s a scary precipice, teeter-tottering between ‘more than hooking up’ an ..read more

We’ve all done it… Something in our body feels a little off. So where’s the first thing we turn to? Most likely, it’s Dr. Google. Like the rest of us, that’s what Jacqueline Alnes, the author of The Fruit Cure, did when doctors couldn’t figure out the root of her mysterious illness. “You get on a website that you think may help you,” she tells Kristina Mänd-Lakhiani on the Mindvalley Book Club. “I got onto a website that, you know, they said that eating fruit and only fruit would heal you from anything.” That’s the claim of most diet fads or wellness crazes, right? Do this or that, and you’ll ..read more

There are some of us who crave a love connection. But the second it gets a little too real for our comfort, we run for the hills. Then, we do it all again with the next person. The cycle is real—and it’s called fearful-avoidant attachment. The thing is, it’s a lot more common than many of us realize. And if you’ve found yourself defaulting to this attachment style, understanding the what, why, and how can be the key to healthier, happier relationships. What Is a Fearful-Avoidant Attachment Style? A fearful-avoidant attachment style is one of the four attachment styles that describes those who ..read more

When it comes to sexual techniques, there are tons of terminology you may (or may not) have heard. Spooning, 69, footjob, missionary, quickie… Most are self-explanatory. But then, some get you curious enough to Google them up. Like, edging. “Wait!” you might say. “What is edging?” Great question—one that leads you down a path of exhilarating discovery. You see, edging, by any other name, is orgasm control. (Kind of like when Finch goes tantric on a ficus tree in American Pie 2.) Using this delayed gratification can be a powerful way to open you up to entirely new sensations and unlock experien ..read more
