Hobbies, favorite movies, books:

• "I love to read, photograph nature, and travel. I am fascinated by works that combine psychology, life choices, detective lines, and subtle philosophy. I read Dreiser, James Patterson, and appreciate authors who pose difficult questions and leave thoughts with us for a long time. In my free time, I enjoy rewatching historical films and series."

Doctor's advice:

• "Our body is not just a 'shell' for the brain, but an active participant in maintaining mental health. For example, over 90% of serotonin – the hormone that helps us feel calm and joyful – is produced in the gut, often called the 'second brain.' Imbalances in microflora due to stress, medication, or diet can affect mood and cause anxiety or depression. Physical activity naturally stimulates the production of 'happiness hormones' – endorphins and dopamine – so regular movement is a simple and effective way to maintain a healthy psyche. Conscious, slow breathing practice is also beneficial: it helps activate the vagus nerve – our body's natural 'anti-stress' mechanism. These simple steps are part of a comprehensive approach to your health. Start taking care of your body today – it's an important path to inner balance and stability."
