How often do you passively consume media? I do it a lot. I read what streams down my news feed. This isn’t necessarily bad, but I often find myself reading things that don’t really make a difference in my life (i.e., non-educational/informative info or info that’s the opposite of what I want my life to be about).
That’s why I created the Worth Reading Round-Up. So that I – and others – can consciously consume content that makes us feel empowered and simply feel better at the end of the article than we felt at the beginning.
So here’s the latest edition!
- 5 Personal Trainers Share Why They’d Rather Be Strong Than Skinny (via Women’s Health Magazine).
My favorite quote from this article:
“I want to be able to pick up the heavy boxes when I move. I want to be able to carry all my grocery bags to my third-floor apartment in one trip—like my single mom of four kids did. And if I’m ever hanging off the edge of a cliff, I want to be damn certain that I can pull myself up! I’m happy to look beautiful and feminine, as long as being strong, capable, and fierce are included in that definition.” —Emily Saul, co-leader of November Project Boston
- The Power of Embracing Your Messy, Beautiful Life (Podcast with Glennon Doyle from Oprah’s SuperSoul Conversations)
- 5 Steps to Practice Mindfulness with Your Child (via Athleta’s Chi Blog)
