HAVE you recently been stood up on a date, accidentally taken yourself off mute and said something outrageous or even lost your job? Maybe all you need to solve your problems is the latest viral technique changing people's lives: 'Lucky Girl Syndrome'. While the name may sound like a disease contracted from Britney Spears, Lucky Girl Syndrome is in fact the latest iteration of manifestation. It has one primary principle: you must consider yourself the luckiest girl in the world and repeat the affirmation "everything works out for me".
The first viral advocates for the method came from TikTok (of course), with two girls in their car, eating noodles and talking about how their lives miraculously transformed when they took on the practice. Now that video has more than 4.5 million views and has spurred on hundreds of other supportive videos. Eighteen-year-old Samantha Palazzolo is one of the 'noodle girls' and thinks their video came at the perfect moment "I think a lot of people are looking for new activities and mindsets to implement in the new year to become the best versions of themselves. My favourite thing is looking through the videos that people tag me in of them trying out Lucky Girl Syndrome and there're absolutely crazy things happening to them."
