Neale Whitaker: ‘Mental health has played a prominent role in my life’

1 day ago | bodyandsoul.com.au | Bianca Carmona

Men don’t need to suffer mental health challenges on their own, with the Gotcha4Life Foundation giving them ways to take charge of their wellbeing and show up for their friends. For Neale Whitaker, supporting Gotcha4Life wasn’t just about signing on as an ambassador – it was personal. The interior design expert and TV host has long been aware of the struggles surrounding mental health, both through his own experiences and those of his partner David Novak-Piper.
Crush Course: Are you in 'attraction debt?'

3 days ago | bodyandsoul.com.au | Sera Bozza

You haven’t been ghosted, you’ve ghosted your own dating life. Attraction doesn’t disappear, it just powers down. Here’s how to get your signal (and your spark) back. You skip a few interactions, flake on a plan and swipe aimlessly but never message. You tell yourself you’re “focusing on yourself,” but really? You’re dodging rejection. And before you know it, five months have passed, and you haven’t flirted with anyone, let alone yourself.
Snail mucin to beef tallow: should you try viral skincare?

3 days ago | bodyandsoul.com.au | Charlotte Brundrett

Beef fat, banana peel, snail slime and even salmon sperm… The latest skincare trends are pushing boundaries – and triggering the gag reflex. Once dominated by science-backed potions and fragrant lotions, skincare has entered a new era. Thanks to social media (hi, TikTok), unconventional skincare ingredients are going viral – the weirder, the better.
Romance recessions are real, and they're hitting harder in 2025

5 days ago | bodyandsoul.com.au | Sera Bozza

We keep telling ourselves it’s financially smarter to stay single right now. But when life’s this uncertain, is that playing it safe, or just playing it small? Dating coach Sera Bozza weighs in. Modern dating wasn’t born from romance. It was born from disposable income. In the 2016 book ‘The Labor of Love’, Moira Weigel investigates how dating, as we know it, only kicked off when single workers moved into cities in the early 20th century.
'I went to Adidas HQ and tested pro athlete shoes - here’s how it changed my running'

6 days ago | bodyandsoul.com.au | Sera Bozza

I’m not a pro athlete. But for a few days at Adidas HQ in Germany, I got to train like one. And after being in their shoes, I’m not going back. At 10 am on a Thursday in rural Germany, I was sprinting on a camera-rigged treadmill, trying to pretend my ‘easy pace’ wasn’t actually my max heart rate – while a lab full of scientists tracked every move.
Why is it so hard to trust the 'nice guy'?

6 days ago | bodyandsoul.com.au | Laura Roscioli

The draw of the 'bad boy' is well chronicled, but what is it about the 'nice guy' that makes it so hard to believe them? I’ve always been a sucker for a bad boy. I know that’s nothing ground-breaking – basically every millennial woman had a crush on Sebastian Valmont from Cruel Intentions… right? And what about Chuck Bass? Don’t get me started. The silk scarves, the daddy issues, the way he looked like he hadn’t slept in three days, partying well beyond his years. Hot. But why?
The best sex positions for back, neck and shoulder pain

1 week ago | bodyandsoul.com.au | Dilvin Yasa

Experts say sexual intimacy during times of physical discomfort can assist with pain relief, but only if you focus on the right moves. It sounds like an argument to help get you into bed, but the results are in: sex (or self-pleasure) can significantly decrease pain, thanks to the release of feel-good endorphins which stimulate an analgesic process.
Micro-cheating is on the rise – here’s what it really means

1 week ago | bodyandsoul.com.au | Dilvin Yasa

Flirty DMs, secret likes and 'work wife' vibes. If you're secretly communicating with an ex or flirting with a colleague, it may be time to come clean about micro-cheating. Our relationship experts reveal why. Think your relationship is solid because there’s no full-blown affair? Think again. In the age of disappearing messages, late-night likes, and flirty "work banter," micro-cheating is becoming the modern relationship minefield no one wants to admit they're walking through.
Can you survive the 'relationship interest rate'?

1 week ago | bodyandsoul.com.au | Sera Bozza

Great relationships aren’t built on fireworks. They’re built on frequency. If your connection only spikes during birthdays and breakdowns, your love life might be running at a loss. We love a grand gesture. The surprise trip. The 50 roses. The surprise dinner with a bill that could clear your HECS debt. But here’s the thing no one wants to admit: those spikes don’t save you. Not if the emotional account is running on fumes the other 364 days a year.
How to tell the difference between allergies and a cold

1 week ago | bodyandsoul.com.au | Mia Erickson

Confused between allergies and a cold? This quick guide helps you identify symptoms and find relief. We've all got that one extra-sniffly co-worker who insists their sneezing fits and morning lethargy are nothing more than 'allergies'. But with cold and flu cases rising exponentially in recent weeks, taking Steve from Accounts' word for it might land you in hot water health-wise.
