I can’t remember where I came across this book, but it’s a unique take on starting new healthy habits. Galina and Roland Denzel are health/life/movement coaches who selected the top 52 healthy habits that make for better health and better life in general and outlined a plan to try just one new habit a week. The explore the hows and the whys of each habit and explain what steps to take in order to begin and maintain this habit in our lives. Some of the […]
Who knew you could have sugar withdrawals?
“10-Day Green Smoothie Cleanse” is pretty much self-explanatory. Author JJ Smith starts the book with a questionnaire to reveal to readers how much they may or may not need to detox. Then she follows this up with an explanation for how green smoothies can accomplish the detox and remove some of the results of a stressful, poor-diet lifestyle. Before the first chapter closes she outlines what the 10-day green smoothie consists of. Obviously it’s for 10 days and you drink green smoothies, but she goes […]
Y’all…. This one’s gonna be a bit different
Lemme tell you a not-so-secret-secret about ‘adulthood’: Nobody knows what the f they are doing. So much of being an adult is dealing with sucky situations – all the sudden a lot of your friend’s parents are dying, or your sister-in-law gets cancer (again), or this one has an affair that devastates that one, or your cousin suffers another miscarriage while her sister is expecting twins. Literally, life just becomes chock full of situations that you are not prepared to face, and suddenly you […]
And not a duck to be seen!
Quackery: A Brief History on the Worst Ways to Cure Everything is indeed what it says on the box. We have an intro into what each method is, and then how awful it was and why. It’s very informative, but for each thing it comes across as a Very Big Deal. Each of these methods were indeed used, but it seems like the authors over-inflate their importance. Mercury (I’m sure everyone knows by now that medically, Mercury is a Very Bad Thing) Antimony […]
#CBR10Bingo: Not My Wheelhouse – Running Like a Girl (Bingo #2)
#CBR10Bingo: Not My Wheelhouse (the book is a) non-fiction and b) about running – neither of these things are in my usual wheelhouse) I was at a bit of a loss as to which genre or book to choose for the “Not My Wheelhouse” square on the CBR10 Bingo card, because while I primarily read romance, paranormal fantasy and YA (especially at the moment), I do try to branch out into other fiction genres every so often, and while I don’t read them as often any […]
Sadly, This Was Not the Book That Made Me Redefine My Wheelhouse
Bingo Square: Not My Wheelhouse Originally, I was going to use this for my Listicle square but the more I read it, the more I realized how much this book was just not my style! I saw it on Bill Gates’ summer reading list, and I really need to learn my lesson that when people use the word faith they usually mean religious faith specifically rather than some general faith in the universe. So you know, my bad! The author is a religion professor at […]
