Image: Tatenda Kandava Home » Tidimalo Sehlako hosts top-tier yoga and wellness session in Rivonia Tidimalo Sehlako is a passionate yoga lover, and her wellness sessions are a testament to that. Image: Tatenda Kandava Fans of Soweto TV will be familiar with Tidimalo Sehlako, who hosts Just Music on that channel. On 31 May at the Fight Club in Rivonia, Sehlako will share her love of yoga and wellness with her fans at her Top Tier Sessions with Tidi event. By focusing on both mind and body, she hopes to inspire a deeper commitment to wellness. The 15-year broadcast veteran shared what people can expect at her event. 'Firstly, it's about enjoyment, no one should take time out of their schedule just to be miserable! Secondly, it will be a beautifully guided, intense workout. We are testing our bodies and pushing our limits. However, everyone should go at their own pace. If it's not fun, you're not doing it right.' Sehlako vowed that the session, taking place from 10 am to 12 am this Saturday, should leave those who attend feeling relaxed, nurtured, and spirits elevated to a higher tier. Her yoga session will also have a doctor on hand to offer information and insights on health and wellness. All of which will set you back R250. Growing up as a child, Sehlako would watch MTV Base and the like, religiously. Celebrity culture played a significant part in her upbringing, but so did the wellness habits of her mother. 'At home, my mom was very into self-care, but at the time, there weren't the words to explain it. She just had a lot of magazines like Vogue and Cosmopolitan that I was so captivated by. I didn't see another life for myself besides what I saw in those pages.' Beyond her talents as a broadcaster, she has also managed to turn her passion for fitness and wellness into a business endeavour. 'Yoga has helped me monetise wellness. It's me offering a service to people. Yoga has made wellness part of my career in media,' Sehlako said. 'Personally, being on the mat, taking a class gives you the mental tools to be able to handle the heaviness that life can give.' For as long as Sehlako can remember, she has focused on her wellness journey and has always searched for ways to care for her mind and body. 'From using the sugar scrubs my mom used to make for her face to going to the gym, all in high school. It's always been very serious to me. When I started getting paid for it was around 2016,' she said. Beyond the fitness and wellness benefits yoga provides to the body, her affinity for this form of exertion is also linked to her mental well-being and desire to declutter her mind. 'I got into yoga as a coping mechanism through depression and anxiety. Eventually, through deepening my practice, I got into teaching, and now we are here.' Sehlako has been in the spotlight and living life in front of the lens since 2014. 'An important moment for me came when I competed in Miss SA. I have also presented the BET A-List . In 2020, I got a role on Generations: The Legacy and in 2022, I started presenting Just Music on Soweto TV .' Her schedule can be demanding, so finding time to balance her career while tending to her wellness and caring for her body and mind is paramount. 'Being on Soweto TV is definitely like a nine-to-five because it's a three-hour daily show. However, with yoga, I only teach events so that I'm not burnt out and I have more time to myself to deepen my practice,' the media personality intimated. You might want to find out what this top-tier session will be about this Saturday, or maybe yoga has always interested you. But how should one embark on a wellness journey with yoga as a focal point? 'Start with something you like. If you don't enjoy it, you won't sustain it during the hard times.' Let us know by leaving a comment below, or send a WhatsApp to 060 011 021 11.

Brad Pitt Feels ‘Easy And Natural' In His Relationship With Ines de Ramon
Last Updated: Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie were among the 'it' couples in the 2000s. Following his divorce from Angelina Jolie, Brad Pitt is reportedly at a 'solid place" with his girlfriend Ines de Ramon. The two, who have been together for over two years now, are continuing to grow stronger in their relationship and moving forward with a deep sense of happiness and ease. While both Brad and Ines have preferred to keep their romance under wraps, insiders close to them have often shared details about their relationship. One such source told People that Brad's 32-year-old girlfriend has been a 'calming and supportive presence" in his life after his highly publicised divorce from former wife Angelina. The insider shared that there is 'no pressure" between the couple, and Ines, who is a jewellery designer, gives the Fight Club 'space when he needs it, but is always there when it counts." Sharing how Ines changed the 61-year-old actor's life, the source explained, 'Ines has brought a lot of peace into Brad's life. Their relationship has been easy and natural." Furthermore, it was also revealed that the jewellery designer encouraged Brad to move forward, leaving all the things that happened in the past. 'Ines encouraged Brad to move forward and focus on the future. She's grounded, drama-free, and just really good for him, which is exactly what he needs at this stage," said the source. FYI, Brad and Angelina were among the 'it' couples in the 2000s. The duo, who met in 2005 while filming Mr. & Mrs. Smith, were in a relationship for almost a decade before they got married in 2014 at Château Miraval in France. Unfortunately, their marriage ended within two years. Angelina filed for divorce in 2016. The two, who shared six children, Maddox, Pax, Zahara, Shiloh, Knox, and Vivienne, were involved in an ugly legal battle for 8 years. In December 2024, Brad and Angelina's divorce was finalised. Speaking about his divorce from Angelina, Brad recently told GQ, 'My personal life is always in the news." He added, 'It's been an annoyance I've had to always deal with in different degrees, large and small, as I do the things I really want to do. So, it's always been this kind of nagging time suck or waste of time, if you let it be that… My life is fairly contained. It feels pretty warm and secure with my friends, with my loves, with my fam, with my knowledge of who I am, that, you know, it's like this fly buzzing around a little bit." Brad Pitt will be next seen on-screen in F1 – The Movie, directed by Joseph Kosinski. It will hit the theatres on June 27. First Published: May 30, 2025, 17:43 IST

Brad Pitt's Girlfriend Ines de Ramon ‘Has Been a Calming Presence' After Angelina Jolie Divorce (Exclusive Source)
Brad Pitt's girlfriend Ines de Ramon has been a 'calming and supportive' presence in his life, according to a source The couple are in a 'really solid place,' the source tells PEOPLE exclusively The Oscar winner and the jewelry industry exec have been dating since 2022Brad Pitt's girlfriend Ines de Ramon has been a 'calming and supportive presence' after the actor finalized his divorce from Angelina Jolie. 'There's no pressure between them,' a source tells PEOPLE exclusively. 'She gives him space when he needs it, but is always there when it counts.' The Oscar winner, 61, and the jewelry industry executive, 32 — who have been dating since 2022 — are in a 'really solid place,' the insider says. 'Ines has brought a lot of peace into Brad's life,' the source adds. 'Their relationship has been easy and natural.' The Fight Club star finalized his lengthy divorce from the Maria actress, 49, in December 2024. Jolie had initially filed to dissolve their marriage in September 2016. The actors, who share six children — Maddox, 23, Pax, 21, Zahara, 20, Shiloh, 19, Knox, 16, and Vivienne, also 16 — began dating in the mid-2000s and married in 2014. De Ramon quietly tied the knot in 2019 with Vampire Diaries actor Paul Wesley, but after more than three years of marriage, the couple split in 2022. PEOPLE first reported the news revealing that they had been living apart for several months. 'Ines encouraged Brad to move forward and focus on the future. She's grounded, drama-free, and just really good for him which is exactly what he needs at this stage,' says the source. Pitt spoke out for the first time about finalizing his divorce from Jolie after more than eight years of intense legal fighting. As the A-list actor sat down with GQ to discuss his upcoming racing movie F1 in a feature published Wednesday, May 28, the actor dismissed questions regarding whether he felt "relief" after he and Jolie reached a settlement in their divorce. 'No, I don't think it was that major of a thing," Pitt said. "Just something coming to fruition. Legally.' He also gave a rare glimpse of insight into his relationship with de Ramon when asked whether the move to make their first public-event appearance at a Formula 1 race was deliberate. Pitt laughed and told GQ, 'No, dude, it's not that calculated." 'If you're living, oh my God, how exhausting would that be? If you're living with making those kinds of calculations?" he added. "No, life just evolves. Relationships evolve.' Speaking of his time outside the spotlight, Pitt said, 'My personal life is always in the news. It's been in the news for 30 years, bro. Or some version of my personal life, let's put it that way.' Read the original article on People

Off the Grid: Sally breaks down USA TODAY's daily crossword puzzle, Chopped Liver
There are spoilers ahead. You might want to solve today's puzzle before reading further! Chopped Liver Constructor: Kareem Ayas Editor: Amanda Rafkin Kareem: Hope this puzzle inspires you to do two things: 1) Add Latvia to your travel bucket list - a country I have always wanted to see, but never had the chance just yet! 2) Add some Bon Jovi to your workout playlist - nothing makes me want to crank the treadmill up to 9.5 like some Bon Jovi. Kane turned 9 years old this month! Here's a picture of him having some birthday steak. Happy Thursday everybody and thanks for solving! IRAN (13A: Modern Persia) It was in 1935 that the Shah of Persia (Reza Shah) requested the country be referred to as IRAN rather than Persia. In 1959, Reza Shah's son decided that the names Persia and IRAN could be used interchangeably in formal correspondence, but IRAN is the name that is generally used for official purposes. ALOO (14A: ___ paratha (potato dish)) ALOO paratha, which is a flatbread with potato filling, is a dish in Indian, Pakistani, and Bangladeshi cuisine. This is my occasional reminder that ALOO is a South Asian term for potatoes, so when a dish in a crossword clue is described as containing potato, the answer may be ALOO. RULE (39A: "You do not talk about Fight Club," e.g.) The first RULE of Fight Club is you do not talk about Fight Club." This line is spoken by the character Tyler Durden (portrayed by Brad Pitt) in the 1999 movie Fight Club. I haven't seen the movie, but that line has made it into mainstream culture, and I knew the answer immediately. O'NEAL (40A: Name on Shaq's jersey) Shaquille O'NEAL whose nickname is Shaq, is a former professional basketball player and a current sports analyst for Inside the NBA. The name O'NEAL has been on a number of teams' jerseys, as during his 19-year NBA career, Shaq played for the Orlando Magic (1992-1996), the Los Angeles Lakers (1996-2004), the Miami Heat (2004-2008), the Phoenix Suns (2008-2009), the Cleveland Cavaliers (2009-2010), and the Boston Celtics (2010-2011). CASS (43A: Mama ___ of the Mamas and the Papas) Mama CASS Elliot (1941-1974) was a member of the folk rock group, The Mamas & the Papas, and also had a successful solo career before she died of heart failure at the age of 32. ADDAMS (48A: Last name of Wednesday, Pugsley and Uncle Fester) The ADDAMS Family is a creation of cartoonist Charles ADDAMS. The ADDAMS Family consists of Morticia and Gomez ADDAMS, their children Wednesday and Pugsley, Uncle Fester, Grandmama, and Cousin Itt. Other characters include a butler named Lurch, Thing (a disembodied hand), Aristotle (Pugsley's pet octopus), Kitty Kat (Morticia's pet lion), and Cleopatra (a carnivorous plant). Cartoons featuring the ADDAMS Family appeared in The New Yorker between 1938 and 1988. There have been four TV show adaptations of the ADDAMS Family. The first three shows, which originally aired in 1964, 1973, and 1992, were all called The ADDAMS Family. In 1998, the fourth TV series about the family premiered, and was titled The New ADDAMS Family. Wednesday ADDAMS received her own TV show on Netflix in 2022; it is appropriately titled Wednesday. LIVIN' ON A PRAYER (53A: 1986 Bon Jovi hit with the lyric "Take my hand, we'll make it, I swear") "LIVIN' ON A PRAYER" was Bon Jovi's second number one hit on the Billboard Hot 100. ("You Give Love a Bad Name" was Bon Jovi's first number one hit.) Thanks for this earworm, puzzle! "Oh, we're half way there / Oh-oh, LIVIN' ON A PRAYER / Take my hand, we'll make it, I swear / Oh-oh, LIVIN' ON A PRAYER..." EURO (58A: Currency used in Estonia and Lithuania) and LATVIA (11D: Country located between Estonia and Lithuania) Estonia, Lithuania, and LATVIA are three of the 20 members of the European Union that have adopted the EURO as their currency. These three countries are located in northern Europe. LATVIA is located south of Estonia and north of Lithuania. Let's do some word capital review while we're at it: The capital of Estonia is Tallinn, the capital of LATVIA is Riga, and the capital of Lithuania is Vilnius. MICE (63A: Cats stereotypically chase them) Fortunately, we have never had MICE in the house we're living in now, so my cat, Willow, has never had the opportunity to chase them. She has to settle for catching the occasional fly. When I first graduated from college, I rented a house that had occasional wildlife visitors – not only MICE, but also bats and raccoons! I remember the first time the cat I had at the time, whose name was Indy, caught a mouse. He woke me up at one in the morning, upset because his mouse friend had stopped playing with him... I have more MICE stories from my time in that house, but they will have to wait for another time. SOUR (7D: ___ Patch Kids) SOUR Patch Kids is a brand of SOUR and sweet gummy candy. ALLEN (9D: British singer Lily with the hit "Smile") Lily ALLEN's music incorporates elements of electro pop, R&B, and reggae. "Smile" is a 2006 single from her debut studio album, Alright, Still. SUSHI (22D: Uramaki or futomaki) Uramaki is a cylindrical style of SUSHI. Two or more fillings are wrapped in nori, and the roll has a layer of rice on the outside. "Uramaki" means "inside out" or "reverse roll" in Japanese, and the SUSHI is named because the nori is inside of the rice. Futomaki is also a cylindrical style of SUSHI, but it usually has nori on the outside. "Futomaki" means "fat roll" in Japanese, and this type of SUSHI is typically 1.5 to 2.5 inches in diameter. FROYO (35D: Dessert portmanteau) FROYO is a portmanteau of "frozen" and "yogurt." AMERICA (41D: Captain ___ (Marvel superhero)) Captain AMERICA, aka Steve Rogers, made his first appearance in the comics in 1940. Captain AMERICA's superpower abilities are a result of being administered a "super-soldier serum" after joining the U.S. Army in World War II. Chris Evans portrays Captain AMERICA in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. ANIMAL (44D: ___ Crossing (video game series)) In the video game series ANIMAL Crossing, players take up residence in a village populated by anthropomorphic animals. As I have mentioned previously, everything I know about ANIMAL Crossing, I have learned from crosswords. ANDES (50D: Mountain range in Peru) The ANDES mountain range runs along the western edge of South America, and is the longest continental mountain range in the world. Seven countries contain part of the ANDES: Argentina, Chile, Bolivia, Peru, Ecuador, Colombia, and Venezuela. LIFE PRESERVER (20A: Buoyant device for staying afloat) LYFT DRIVER (34A: Person making pickups and drop-offs) LIVIN' ON A PRAYER (53A: 1986 Bon Jovi hit with the lyric "Take my hand, we'll make it, I swear") CHOPPED LIVER: The word LIVER has been CHOPPED by each theme answer: LIFE PRESERVER, LYFT DRIVER, and LIVIN' ON A PRAYER. As I have been writing this, I have amused myself by imagining the puzzle asking, "What am I, CHOPPED LIVER?" Yes, puzzle, that is exactly what you are. Fun that we have the LIVER CHOPPED in a variety of ways: LI/VER, L/IVER, and LIV/ER. Thank you, Kareem, for this delightful puzzle.
