Everything in life is based on the way we think. Society and the media bombard us with the idea of Valentine’s Day being the ultimate day for romance with the staple chocolates and flowers, but we have decided to change that perspective today. From here on, WE CHOOSE to see February 14th as LOVE DAY. You see, love is universal – it’s for everyone, not just for couples – and it can be given at any moment, and expressed in so many more meaningful ways than what society may have led us to believe. The new focus is to celebrate love and give love to whomever you want, including yourself. You deserve it. Read More…
Every year around holiday season I hear sentences such as these: “I hate being single on holidays!” or “I need someone to cuddle with in the winter,” and “who am I gonna kiss on new years?” ENOUGH. These type of thoughts make a woman sound needy (co-dependent), in the market for a new human accessory, and clearly without a clue about what love is and how to get it. If you are looking for love, this is not the way to feel about it nor to approach it. How does one stop thinking this way? Read More…
¿Puede una película ayudarte a reducir tu huella digital de carbono? De acuerdo con el reparto de la comedia romántica Valentine’s Day (El Día de San Valentín), la respuesta es sí. Durante una entrevista HLife, los actores Ashton Kutcher, Jessica Alba, Jamie Foxx, Jessica Biel, Julia Roberts, Jennifer Garner y Shirley MacLaine no fueron en absoluto nada tímidos para responder las preguntas acerca de la salud, el romance, la diferencia entre hombres y mujeres, los planes de San Valentín, y, por supuesto, el eco-consciente set de filmación de Warner Brothers.

Querido HLife: ¿Cuál es la receta para el romance en una relación a largo plazo?
Querido HLifer,
La gente tiene una tendencia a pensar que, al principio de una relación, o en una que dura sólo unos meses, es más fácil ser romántico porque todo es tan nuevo y hay mucho por descubrir. Este es el tipo de pensamiento que lleva a la gente al fracaso y a la decepción. Aquí está el problema: En general, la opinión de muchas personas sobre lo que es romance es muy limitado, probablemente debido a las ideas plasmadas de la televisión y del cine. Algunos piensan que el romance es sexo, y algunos parecen pensar que si no hay velas o cenas envueltas, no existe el romanticismo; otros piensan que el romance sólo puede ser experimentado fuera de sus vida cotidianas (como durante un viaje o mientras toman unas vacaciones). Para mantener vivo el romance en una relación a largo plazo, esta antigua mentalidad necesita una actualización. Read More…
People have a tendency to think that, in a beginning relationship, or one that has lasted only a few months, it is easier to be romantic because everything is so new and undiscovered. This is the kind of thinking that sets people up for failure and disappointment. Here is the problem: In general, many people’s view of romance is limited, probably due to ideas from TV and film. Some think romance is sex; some seem to think that if there are no candles or food involved, romance is non-existent; others think that romance can only be experienced away from your everyday life (like during a trip or while taking a vacation). To keep the romance alive in a long-term relationship, this old mentality needs an upgrade. Read More…
