Daily Affirmation for August 5, 2025 to Kickstart Your Vibe
'I am allowed to begin again, as many times as I need.'
Vibe Check:
Messed up your morning? Ghosted that friend back? Didn't hit the gym again? Breathe. You're not behind, broken, or bad — you're human. One off-day doesn't erase your progress. You're not meant to be perfect, you're meant to be in process. Starting over isn't failure. It's freedom. Hit reset, not self-destruct.
Why This Works:
This affirmation gives you permission to wipe the slate clean — no guilt attached. It quiets your inner critic and reminds you that growth isn't linear. Every moment is a chance to choose again. And again. And again. That's power, not weakness.
Your Mini Mission:
Start fresh in the tiniest way today:
– Change your bedsheets or light a candle — clear space, clear energy.
– Write down one thing you're forgiving yourself for. Then let it go.
– Begin again with someone: send a kind message, even if it's awkward. The door isn't closed.
Reset Ritual Playlist:
Songs that feel like a deep breath and a clean slate:
– 'Breathe (2 AM)' – Anna Nalick
– 'Begin Again' – Taylor Swift
– 'Let It Go' – James Bay

Justin Timberlake 'pushed through' before Lyme disease diagnosis
Singer and actor Justin Timberlake has been getting plenty of support after opening up about his health this week, and his wife Jessica Biel has been by his side for it all, reported People. After the 10-time Grammy winner announced his Lyme disease diagnosis on social media on July 31, a family source informed that the news has brought Timberlake "clarity" and that Biel has been "incredibly supportive" of him during this time. Timberlake initially believed the fatigue and pain he had been experiencing on the road were just part of getting older and being back on tour, the insider said, as per the outlet. He recently concluded his two-year Forget Tomorrow World Tour, an international run in support of his 2024 studio album, Everything I Thought It Was. "He's not 20 anymore. But when his symptoms worsened, he realised something deeper was going on," the source said. "He pushed through for months before finally getting answers. The Lyme disease diagnosis brought clarity to a series of unexplained issues that he's been quietly dealing with." Biel "felt like something was off" with her husband's health and "encouraged him to get checked out," the source added. "She could tell that he wasn't himself. She's incredibly supportive." Timberlake announced his diagnosis in an Instagram post, informing fans that he wanted to "shed some light on what I've been up against behind the scenes". "If you've experienced this disease or know someone who has, then you're aware: living with this can be relentlessly debilitating, both mentally and physically," Timberlake wrote, adding that he was "shocked for sure" to receive the diagnosis. "But at least I could understand why I would be onstage and in a massive amount of nerve pain or, just feeling crazy fatigue or sickness," he added. As the insider now explained, Timberlake's focus remains on his treatment and recovery following the conclusion of his tour. "He's taking it seriously. The plan is to rest, spend time with Jess and the kids and do everything he can to heal," the family source said of the couple, who are parents to sons Silas, 10, and Phineas, 5. "He loved touring and being back onstage, but he's also relieved it's over. Now he can focus on his health," reported People. According to the Cleveland Clinic, Lyme disease is transmitted from the bite of an infected tick and can initially lead to flu-like symptoms, including headaches, joint pain, fatigue or fever. It is often diagnosed by a rash around the tick bite and can later lead to symptoms such as facial paralysis, brain fog, numbness, swollen joints or nerve damage. Timberlake previously cancelled or postponed shows on his tour due to an ongoing back injury, bronchitis and laryngitis, and an ankle injury. "I was reluctant to talk about this because I was always raised to keep something like this to yourself," Timberlake said in his Instagram post this week. "But I am trying to be more transparent about my struggles so that they aren't misinterpreted."

‘Wednesday' Season 2: Release date, plot, cast and everything you need to know
The long-awaited return of Netflix's record-breaking series Wednesday is almost here. Nearly three years since Season 1 cast its spooky spell over global audiences, Wednesday Season 2 drops in two parts — with Episodes 1–4 premiering on August 6, 2025, and the remaining episodes following on September 3. Led once again by Jenna Ortega as the deadpan and delightfully macabre Wednesday Addams, the upcoming season plunges deeper into gothic thrills and emotional stakes. Showrunners Alfred Gough and Miles Millar are back, as is executive producer Tim Burton, ensuring the same dark visual flair fans loved the first time around. Season 2 picks up after Wednesday uncovered the sinister plot involving Tyler the Hyde and Laurel, the descendant of the puritanical Crackstone. With Nevermore Academy in ruins and new threats looming, Wednesday returns to school, but, as Ortega teased to Tudum, she will be kidnapped right at the start. 'Wednesday Addams (Jenna Ortega), returns to prowl the Gothic halls of Nevermore Academy, where fresh foes and woes await. This season, Wednesday must navigate family, friends and old adversaries, propelling her into another year of delightfully dark and kooky mayhem,' the official synopsis reads. "Armed with her signature razor-sharp wit and deadpan charm, Wednesday is also plunged into a new bone-chilling supernatural mystery. Watch the trailer below: The Addams Family will take on more central roles this season, with Morticia (Catherine Zeta-Jones), Gomez (Luis Guzmán), and Pugsley (Isaac Ordonez) returning. Adding even more star power, Lady Gaga joins the cast in Part 2 as Rosaline Rotwood, a legendary Nevermore teacher, while Joanna Lumley plays Grandmama Frump and Haley Joel Osment appears as the Kansas City Scalper.
