746 suspected cases of Ebola in DR Congo 🇨🇩 according to latest official figures

This means that in reality there are already thousands of cases

It's going to get worse before it gets better

We have to stop it spiralling completely out of control

What Is Mental Strength and How To Get It https://t.co/X2OKuy5HLe

Mental strength isn’t about “toughing it out” or pretending everything’s fine. It’s about learning how to manage your emotions, stay flexible in the face of challenges, and keep going—even when life gets hard.

And mental strength isn’t something you’re born with—it’s a skill you can build over time. 💪 Love how this post breaks it down into practical, empowering steps anyone can take to strengthen their mind and improve their emotional health.

In this post, you’ll learn what mental strength really is (hint: it’s not just willpower) and get practical tips to build it—no matter your starting point.🧠💪

Walking lowers cortisol.
Lifting raises testosterone.
Stretching releases trauma.
Dancing regulates your nervous system.
Movement isn't punishment for what you ate.
It's medicine for how you feel.

Your Brain Can Build Muscle Without Moving — Seriously 🤯

A surprising study reported by Ohio University suggests that simply imagining yourself exercising can actually make your muscles stronger. No weights. No sweat. Just focused thought. In the experiment, one group of people spent a few minutes a day vividly imagining strong muscle contractions, while another group did absolutely nothing. Four weeks later, the results shocked researchers — the people who only used mental imagery became significantly stronger.

This discovery reveals something powerful: muscles don’t work alone. Your brain is deeply involved in controlling strength, and when the brain “practices” movement, the body responds. Scientists believe this could be life-changing for people who can’t exercise normally — the elderly, injured patients, or anyone with limited mobility. Instead of losing muscle over time, they might slow weakness simply by training their mind.

It sounds almost unbelievable, but science is catching up with what we’ve always suspected — the mind is not just observing the body, it’s shaping it. One day, “thinking workouts” may become a real tool alongside physical exercise. So next time you imagine lifting, pushing, or moving… your body might be listening more than you think.

[Natural Philosophy @Naturalphilosy]

“Travel was once a means of being elsewhere, or of being nowhere. Today it is the only way we have of feeling that we are somewhere. At home, surrounded by screens, I am no longer anywhere, but rather everywhere in the world at once... To arrive in a new city is suddenly to find oneself here and nowhere else. The body rediscovers how to look. Delivered from images, it rediscovers the imagination.”

— Jean Baudrillard
