The Boomer Chronicles

Rhea is a middle-aged blogger who uses lots of adjectives and identities to describe herself. When one of those identities was called into question (namely the one that formerly did NOT have a driving interest in RV’s), she began her research into “Youthiness Studies”…”otherwise known as The Boomer Chronicles, a blog for baby boomers and others.”

The Boomer Chronicles - Why You Should Go

The Boomer Chronicles takes up the many quandaries surrounding middle age and mid-life crises, as well as the general sense of “ennui” affecting Americans today (presumably not limited to middle aged Americans); wearing her politics proudly on her sleeve, Rhea offers up posts on a wide array of subjects, some practical, some poignant, and some contemplative and observational.

Summing Up Boomer Chronicles

Rhea admits to an interest in wide-ranging topics, most of which seem to end up on her blog. It’s hard to know what Rhea will be discussing on any given day, but you won’t be disappointed to stop in and consider her posts and her views as Rhea proves that boomers have blogging voices, too.

Unplugged Living

Going Green and the environment are all the rage. They’re [very worthwhile] topics with a level of popularity rivaled only by the latest technological advances. So if there is one thing better it could only be a blog that combines the two, couldn’t it? Unplugged Living is that blog.

Unplugged Living - Why You Should Go

If the tagline doesn’t get you, nothing will. Unplugged Living is designed for the purpose of “helping you freeload off Mother Nature.” Of course, this is one type of freeloading that nobody minds, and in fact most anyone can appreciate.

The blog was started by Kevin Humphrey as a sort of journaling resource as he worked towards living “off the grid;” today, it continues with Noel Bautista, who is continuing the general mission of the blog—to highlight the best of unplugged living, including the best technologies and ways to achieve it, and take you miles beyond saving energy to an existence that is greener, but also by default a more independent existence, too.

Summing Up Unplugged Living

Unplugged Living is becoming a real and true lifestyle choice, one that is gaining in popularity (although it cannot be said that it is completely new) and gaining attention as the world moves to greener, cleaner living. This is a blog that describes that life and the many paths to it in detail, educating you as to how you can do the same. No matter your motivation, if an unplugged lifestyle is of interest to you, this blog is a place to get the goods and learn how to achieve that goal first-hand.

GenBetween

At times it can seem like the generations in the extremes of life are the ones who get all the attention (young children, for example, or the elderly); either that, or the generation caring for respective generations do. What often goes unnoticed is that not all people fit into these nice, tidy categories, leaving an entire generation of people straddling the in-between, dealing with the care and responsibility for both sides. It’s a group of people coming to be known as the “sandwich generation;” one that comes with their own set of very unique, and often contradictory, needs and obligations. GenBetween is a glimpse into the life of people living the great divide.

GenBetween - Why You Should Go

There are many resources to help parents of young children, and many to help children of aging parents. In the past there was little to be said for the people who were doing both simultaneously. As the average life expectancy continues to rise, however, and people start families later into adulthood, this new generation of ‘tweens continues to grow—and so, too, do the challenges that duality creates. Fortunately, the attention upon it continues to grow as well, and resources like Elizabeth’s GenBetween blog continue to emerge. This is a blog for people in the middle to share the unique trials and triumphs of the sandwich life, sharing what is learned along the way.

Summing Up GenBetween

GenBetween is a real-life resource for the people dealing with parenting and parent care all at the same time. Elizabeth shares her experiences and insights, tips, tricks, news and information. Come to this blog to learn what may be in store for you, learn some good ways to cope, or just to find a supportive voice.

Splendor Of Yoga

Our international blog reviews take us today to Chennai, India, where Satyanarayana C. maintains his blogs with a focus on wellness and healing. Splendor of Yoga is one of those blogs, focused on clarifying Yoga and situating it as a more understandable, beneficial form of wellness therapy.

Splendor of Yoga - Why You Should Go

There are plenty of exercise blogs, and even plenty of bogs focusing on Yoga. Many of these, however, give only a superficial explanation of what Yoga is and how we can benefit from it. Often times, even those superficial explanations are riddled with language that is difficult for the layperson to understand. Splendor of Yoga seeks to help people build that firm understanding of this beneficial health and healing practice so that people can learn to maximize their results and gain a better understanding of what it is they are engaging in, and how specifically the practice is helping them.

Summing Up Splendor of Yoga

Satyanarayana saw a need in people interested in Yoga practice, and recognized that he could help fill it. That is what he does with his blog, by breaking it down and detailing the finer points, while explaining the benefits, purposes, and practices of yoga. Much as we may understand that Yoga has provided some real health and wellness advantages, few of us know why that is so. To learn more about the actions, advantages, and mechanisms of yoga, visit this blog.

Red Pine Mountain

In the quiet of the Red Pine Mountaintop in the US Northeast Kingdom, more commonly known as the US state of Vermont, is a transplanted southern girl who writes about finding love and a new life on the world wide web. That girl is Mountain Woman, who uses her blog as a place to show that love really is possible on the internet, and that healing from the past is possible, too.

Red Pine Mountain - Why You Should Go

Red Pine Mountain is best categorized as a personal blog, but it is also in part a lifestyle blog, as many posts illustrate the way of life of the northern mountain-dweller. The blog is more than, that, too. It is also Mountain Woman’s place of positivity and expression; “I focus on issues that are important to me and my personal growth. I try to be positive and this blog is a reflection of my point of view. I do know there are people who find this way of thinking unrealistic; syrupy, I’ve even heard it called, but if I allow myself to get mired in negativity, I won’t accomplish my goals. Every problem becomes insurmountable and the smallest step forward impossible.”

To this end Mountain Woman writes about topics such as faith and religion (including her journey from forced-childhood religion to disbelief and back to true faith again), love, the effects of negativity on the world, the stories of her life and reflections on life in general. These are stories that are offered in the spirit of camaraderie and sharing, not to preach or teach, but simply to discuss.

Summing Up Red Pine Mountain

Mountain Woman writes with care. She is open with her readers and respectful of opinions, truly welcoming her community into her life. Hers is a blog to read if you find yourself in need of a place to enjoyably contemplate life, or are in search of a friendly spirit to connect with on the web.
