Zoe Saldaña is keeping her focus on Lioness rather than expanding her résumé across Taylor Sheridan’s growing television universe. After three seasons as CIA operative Joe McNamara on the Paramount+ thriller, Saldaña, 48, says taking on another Sheridan production is not currently on her agenda. Her role on Lioness extends beyond acting, as she also serves as an executive producer on the series. The combination means her involvement begins well before production starts and continues throughout filming, making the demanding schedule of one Sheridan series more than enough for now. Saldaña has plenty on her plate with Lioness Saldaña’s responsibilities…

Few things sound more appealing after a relationship ends than the idea of closure. The concept promises a clean ending: one final conversation, one last explanation or one moment when everything suddenly makes sense. Once you have that missing piece, the thinking goes, you can finally put the relationship behind you. But real life rarely works that neatly. After a breakup, it is natural to replay conversations, revisit memories and wonder what went wrong. You may believe that understanding exactly why things ended will make it easier to let go. Sometimes it does. But waiting for another person to provide…

Seeing two people kiss in public can produce a surprisingly wide range of reactions. Some people find it sweet and barely notice. Others look away, feel uncomfortable or wonder why strangers couldn’t save their affection for somewhere more private. And then there are moments when witnessing someone else’s romance brings up a feeling that seems much bigger than the situation itself. A public display of affection, or PDA, can serve as an unexpected reminder of what someone may be missing, wanting or thinking about in their own life. Recent research suggests this reaction may be especially noticeable among younger adults.…

A common sign of gum problems may be connected to long term brain health, according to new research from Japan. A decade long study involving nearly 1,400 adults found that people with more extensive gum bleeding were more likely to develop dementia during the study period than those with fewer signs of bleeding. The association was also observed specifically with Alzheimer’s disease, adding to a growing body of research examining the relationship between oral health and cognitive health. The findings, published in The Journal of Clinical Periodontology, do not establish that gum problems cause dementia. Instead, they identify an association…

The advice to love yourself pops up everywhere, from social media captions to wellness podcasts to well-meaning pep talks. For plenty of people, though, it feels like an impossible place to begin. After a stressful week, an embarrassing slip or a frustrating setback, jumping straight to confidence and total self-acceptance can seem out of reach. A gentler starting point is asking whether you can treat yourself with the basic care you would offer a friend having a rough day. That approach is called self compassion. It does not mean pretending everything is fine, skirting responsibility or deciding mistakes are irrelevant.…

Keke Palmer can still vividly recall the first time her baby son got sick, and the emotions of that day have stuck with her.

Depending on the services and…
