Feel A Lil' Better: Because You've Got To Get Those Greens

No matter how good (or bad) you'd describe your health, one thing is for sure: a little boost is ALWAYS a good idea. Whether that's reading a new, motivating book, or listening to a song that speaks to your soul, there are plenty of resources to help your health thrive on any given day.

We all know that leafy greens are a key aspect of a healthy, balanced diet. We see the influencers with their smoothies and restaurants boasting of their new superfood salads — is that what we're left with? Some sad, predictable salads at lunch for the sake of our health?

While that may have been your mother's plan of action, it doesn't have to be yours. Incorporating green nutrients into your life is so much easier (and tastier) than a few wilted lettuce leaves.

Each week, we're bringing you the best resources and influencers to give you a health boost. Here's what we're following this week regarding leafy greens.

Book: "The Book of Greens"

While you may think that incorporating greens has to be bland, Jenn Louis is here to prove differently. She has the solution (175 of them, actually) to tasty, nutritious meals that give you all the green gusto your body needs.

Podcast: "The Bon Appetit Foodcast"

"The Bon Appetit Foodcast" is full of knowledge for transforming the ingredients in your life. In this episode, they talk about getting picky children to eat greens... the same methods can easily be applied to adults, too.

Instagram influencer: Megan Evans

YouTuber: Healthnut Nutrition

BONUS: Ninja

All in all, when you're on-the-go and need those greens NOW, a smoothie is the quickest, easiest choice. You might as well invest in a good blender.

Anyone who was born and raised in New Jersey (or anywhere really) knows of Bruce Springsteen, whether or not they like him is a whole other situation. I hope that his hundreds of classic rock songs and famous high energy performances, even in his sixties he can put on better concerts than people half his age, are at least recognizable to people of all ages. Love him or hate him (I identify with the former) you have to admit that some of his songs and interviews have inspirational quotes and lyrics.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.
