Can Rehab Help with Behavioral Addictions? | Nova Recovery Center
When people think of rehab, they often associate it with drug or alcohol addiction. But can rehab help with behavioral addictions, such as gaming or shopping? At Nova Recovery Center, we believe that addiction takes many forms, not just substances, and our comprehensive drug and alcohol rehab programs in Austin, TX, are designed to address all types of addictive behaviors, including behavioral addictions like gaming or compulsive shopping. Behavioral addictions share many similarities with substance addiction. Whether someone is struggling with excessive gaming, compulsive shopping, or substance abuse, the consequences can be devastating. But the good news is that rehab can offer solutions for behavioral addictions as well.

Imported enjoyment
Villa Torlonia is a grand 19th century mansion in Rome, which latterly served as Mussolini's official residence and then as Allied High Command headquarters after the war. The Italian state subsequently redeveloped it, opening the grounds as a public park. The orangery is now a rather grand café with a terrace, and in recent years it has hosted an annual festival of Franconian beer -- FrankenBierFest -- organised by Roman beer institution, The Football Pub. It just so happened that the 2026 edition was taking place when I was in Rome with EBCU a couple of weeks ago. The programme lists 91 different beers, poured both from kegs and Bayerische Anstich wooden casks, though I reckon not more than half of these were on sale at the bars at any one time. Arriving when things were in full swing on the Saturday evening, I could tell this wasn't a gig for tasting samples: you're meant to drink . My drinking began with a half-litre of Ur-Kö , an economically-named beer from the economically

The Bare Canvas
The psychoanalyst, Donald Winnicott, observed of creative life that, “It is a joy to be hidden and a disaster not to be found.” Van Gogh’s work was unappreciated for most of his life, while Kafka’s demand to have all his papers destroyed at his death is arguably, or at least should have been, the last […]

How Did a World Memory Champion, a Theatre Director, a Voice Coach, a TV Actor, and a Professional Magician Help Gerard Basset Win the World’s Best Sommelier Competition?
Introduction How did a world memory champion, a theatre director, a voice coach, a TV actor, and a professional magician all help one person win the World’s Best Sommelier Competition?

Priorat: A Primer
We recently made our first visit to Priorat. Seeing it firsthand, there’s no gradual introduction to its scale. Towering terraced hillsides rise into view, etched with ancient vines, the full scale registering all at once. Jagged ridgelines, stacked terraces, and sun-drenched slate soils define the landscape, where gnarled old vines cling improbably to slopes so […] The post Priorat: A Primer appeared first on Advinetures.ca .

Ox Hardy Fiano 2025
A burst of energy makes a statement on opening. It's a wine that presents a charming case both in the glass and on the label - I do love how that pink Ox Hardy font pops off the sky blue label. From the Upper Tintara vineyard, 10% saw time in seasoned French oak. White-fleshed stonefruit is flanked by Mutsu apple, lemon juice, speaspray and herby things. Not to be outdone, some cucumber and almond nuances slide in. The considered textural presence elevates the detail, but there is no mistaking the energy from the fruit that has lift and life. Lively acidity and a green apple crunch make a move on close, seeing out a smart expression. Tasted alongside another McLaren Vale Fiano, I know I'd rather hunt this down in quick time. Tick! 92/100 Region: McLaren Vale RRP: $28 Source: Sample Winery Website Subscribe to Qwine here Follow: Instagram , LinkedIn and X

ARCHIVE TASTER: Chile Gets Cool

To find out more or sign up to enjoy the full range of member benefits, including archive access, follow this link to Wine Blast PLUS . Cheers! Chile is a wine scene stuck on fast forward. Many of the most exciting projects lately have been developed in the country's deep south, where the cooler conditions mean more elegant, refreshing wines (and respite from a decade-long drought). And these aren't projects for the faint-hearted: we visit a new vineyard on a remote island 1,200km south of Santiago - and another on the side of a smoking volcano. It's not just about terroir, either - southern Chile is home to indigenous Mapuche communities, where poverty and disputed land rights (among other issues) have long been bones of contention with the Chilean state and industry. But now, alongside pioneering vineyards

It does seem as if people revert to the familiar in times of crisis - and we're not afraid to treat ourselves a bit either. With this in mind, we launch a Twitter hullabaloo then taste test the biggest of all wine brands (car crash? Maybe...)

To find out more or sign up to enjoy the full range of member benefits, including archive access, follow this link to Wine Blast PLUS . Cheers! We've reached a tipping point in environmental terms. Not just in terms of biodiversity, climate change, pandemics and the like - but also in the media. Recent releases showcase this trend - from Kiss the Ground (Netflix) to Extinction: The Facts (BBC/David Attenborough) and The Food Programme's English Pastoral episode. All are powerful, terrifying, inspiring calls to action - and made us think about wine's place in all of this. Given we all share personal responsibility for this crisis, should we only buy sustainable wine? Should we both, as professional wine communicators, only recommend sustainable wines? What even is sustainable when it comes to wine? Can (or is) w
