Every Wednesday, I share some interesting blog posts that I found around the web. Oftentimes, these collections are quite eclectic in nature, but there can be a common thread. Today’s selection is one such example, as they all offer some insight into how we can be healthier… just in different ways.
Dumb Little Man starts us off by describing five myths haunting your healthy foods. Organic food, for instance, isn’t always better. You also have to realize that “fair trade” products really serve no indication as to whether or not the food is healthy. Similarly, going gluten-free isn’t necessarily a good idea for everybody.
Raul Pacheco directs the conversation over to mental health, highlighting Let’s Talk Day 2012 by Bell. That happens to be today. There are many misconceptions about mental health and the stigma really has to be lifted. A person suffering from depression should be offered the same kind of compassion as someone with a physical ailment.
What about social health? For that, we turn to Neil Patel, who provides quite an extensive guide to Pinterest. Many of us are already on Facebook and Twitter, but this relatively new addition to the social media family is quickly rising in popularity. It’s another way to get social and, from a marketer’s perspective, it represents a great new opportunity.
Continuing with the online world, we find that Ed Lau has decided to return to blogging after a two and a half month hiatus. He once blogged daily, but that schedule has long since been thrown out the window. The good news is that while he may not continue with “clockwork regularity” like me, he is back and will try to update more often moving forward.
And finally, Free Money Finance asks whether you should move when you retire. Many people choose sunnier climes, but it may make more sense to just stay put. You’ve already cultivated community connections, for example, and that is just as much an investment
