Sylvester McNutt – Care Package

I’m sure everyone has her or his troubles in life, has been wronged or hurt.

This book helped me to realise a lot of things. It began the healing process for me and gave me strength.

It’s a collection of excerpts and short poems. So whenever you need a reminder or a pick me up, you can easily grab it again. I highly recommend it!

His Insta (a lot of the poems are the too!): https://www.instagram.com/sylvestermcnutt/

Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie –
We should all be Feminists

A quick read, yet packed with on point statements and explanations on how and why we all should be feminists.

Brilliant and wise woman.

We should all read it. Men and women.

We can learn a lot from it.

Marieke Eyskoot – This is a good guide

Want to learn about sustainability in all its facets? This is your guide!

From A-Z every topic, from fashion, food to work and travel, everything is included.

All the information are well researched, easy explained (with some shocking numbers!) and the book is well designed.

Well done Marieke!

Lina Jachmann – Einfach leben (GER)

Wer einen Einstieg in das Thema Minimalismus möchte, wird viel aus diesem Buch ziehen können!

Ich selber schnuppere neben meiner anderen Lektüre immer wieder rein und entdecke nützliche Tipps. Auch hier sind, wie in Mariekes Buch (s.o.) alle relevanten Themen abgedeckt und mit spannenden Interviews ergänzt.

Ich bin auf dem Weg zu einem minimalistischerem Leben. Ich möchte mein WG-Zimmer und mein Leben nur mit Dingen füllen, die einen Nutzen haben oder mir Freude bereiten. Der Rest kommt von allein. 🙂

I probably prefer Pie’s second channel to his first, even when he’s a top notch photographer in general.
The quality, depth and stories he tells through his pictures are next level!

can you guess which photo of @itsjustjasy was shot by an amateur and which one was shot by a professional? if you watched our video we posted on @youtube dot com today, the answer would probably be “yeah.”

WHAT COULD POSSIBLY BE MORE IMPORTANT THAN HAVING A 6 pack? Well, a f***-tonne of things really, but the sheer quantity of ab photos we see in the media (be it digital or print) would suggest otherwise. – . The amount of ab photos I saw as a girl growing up reading ‘health’ magazines would suggest that having visible abs was quite high up on the hierarchy of HEALTH MARKERS – and yet, you can have visible abs and STILL HAVE HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE. – . I’ve just written a blog on blood pressure and I’m hoping that some skin exposure and this @twosixswim number will lure you into reading it. – . Truth be told that if I posted a picture of myself in a turtle neck and some high waisted jeans, wearing a blood pressure cuff this post would probably have a lot less engagement. Sex sells and unfortunately healthy blood pressure isn’t really sexy, but is essential for life and reducing the risk of death and disease. – . anyway I hope you enjoy it – it’s not overly complex but I have linked in some important sources if you want to learn more (and you kind of should want to learn more because you have a heart). – . Head to my stories for the swipe up link or go to my website: www.shonavertue.com/blog Tag someone with a heart. – . Happy Monday Vertue Crew.

Double tap if you hate plastic waste🙅‍♀️🙅‍♂️ . . It’s pretty amazing that our society has reached a point where the efforts necessary to extract oil from the ground, ship it to a refinery, turn it into plastic, shape it appropriately, truck it to a store, buy it, and bring it home is considered to be less effort than what it takes to just wash the spoon when you done with it 🤔 📷 @sustainablecorner

Just starting my journey to live with minimum plastic waste, even if I was consciously raised. So far, it’s fun to purposely look for the plastic free version of things, swatch things out (if used up) and learn to make your own products.
Are you on the ‘save the oceans’-train with me?

I hope some of the things and links are helpful for you. Let me know. 🙂
