At 77, Goldie Hawn looks amazing – and after the ever-youthful Hollywood icon shared a new video on Instagram, fans were all focused on just one thing.
Wearing her famous blonde hair down to her shoulders, and rocking her signature smoky eye makeup, the First Wives Club star sported a “Be Kind to Your Mind” t-shirt – sales of which benefit the MindUp charity, part of the Goldie Hawn Foundation – for the video.
Ageless Goldie Hawn shares her four secrets to wellbeing
“Ok, this is my new t-shirt: ‘Be kind to your mind’,” the proud grandmother, who has previously shared her own battle with depression, begins. “And it’s really important because our mindset is everything. It’s how we go through the day, it’s how we watch our mind, and how we care for it.”
In the clip, mental health advocate Goldie goes on to share her four steps to “a happier brain” – and among them is to smile.
“Remember that even if you don’t feel like it, smile,” says the Oscar winner in the clip. “Right? Because when you smile your brain smiles, too… What’s going on in your brain when you smile even though you don’t feel like it? It thinks it’s really a happier brain and we wanna get a happy brain.”
Comments on the advice immediately flooded in, with scores of fans telling Goldie how much she makes them smile.
“Goldie, your smile always makes my mind feel happy and makes me smile!! Thanks for this morning’s message, blessings and health and happiness to you and everyone!” said one fan.
“I needed this message more than anything today! I’m smiling right now and it feels so good!” wrote one, while another said, “Thank you for this wonderful advice. You make people smile.”
Even Goldie’s famous friends chimed in, like Ali Wentworth who revealed: “Well, when I see your face – I smile! And that smile makes me feel better!”
Oliver and Kate Hudson’s famous mom certainly knows a thing about smiling! Her smile became positively iconic when she first got her start on 1960s TV comedy show Laugh-In, and she has been keeping us all in stitches with her movies and bubbly persona ever since.
The Fascinating World of Toy Clackers: Discovering the Fun Behind the Toy
Have you ever seen a toy that made you stop and wonder what it was? You’re not the only one! There’s one toy that left a lot of people confused – Toy Clackers. Even today, most people, about ninety percent, don’t know what they are. So, let’s explore the interesting world of Toy Clackers and figure it out together!
A Blast from the Past
In the fun 1970s, Toy Clackers (also called Klik-Klaks) were super popular. These old-school toys are still loved by collectors who enjoy the memories of simpler times. But what are Toy Clackers, exactly? Imagine this: two plastic balls connected by a string. When you swing them, they hit each other and make a cool “clacking” sound. It’s a unique and fun experience!
The Birth of Toy Clackers
It’s hard to believe, but Toy Clackers were invented in 1969 by Wham-O, the same company that gave us famous toys like the Hula Hoop, Frisbee, and Superball. Toy Clackers became super popular fast, and in just the first year, Wham-O sold over 10 million of them. These toys were everywhere, catching the attention of both kids and adults. They were a huge hit!
Safety Concerns and Controversy
With their big popularity came big problems—safety concerns. Unfortunately, Toy Clackers were banned in many places because of accidents and injuries. Some of the plastic balls would break apart, sending sharp pieces flying and hurting kids. To fix this, Wham-O made a new, safer version, but it didn’t become as popular as the original.
A Lasting Legacy
Even with their mixed history, Toy Clackers still have many fans, especially among collectors and people who remember playing with them when they were kids. These vintage toys connect us to the past and remind us of the fun times spent with friends. They might seem simple, but the happiness they bring is priceless.
Let’s Relive the Joy
Do you remember how much fun Toy Clackers were? For me, they bring back memories of playing with them at my friends’ houses. There was something really satisfying about swinging those balls and hearing the clacking sound. Did you get to enjoy the fun of Toy Clackers too?
