  • SHOUT TO THE VOID (pt 6)🪐

    A day late but here we are!!! You know the drill, what’s a complaint (no matter how big, small, silly, dramatic, etc) you need to shout to the void?!

    Body Electric: The Hidden Health Costs of the Digital Age and New Science to Reclaim Your Well-Being

    Body Electric: The Hidden Health Costs of the Digital Age and New Science to Reclaim Your Well-Being

    Manoush Zomorodi

    From the award-winning journalist and NPR TED Radio Hour host comes a timely investigation into how screens and sitting are reshaping our bodies—and how a simple shift can change everything. In today’s world, a normal day means sitting in front of a screen for eight to ten hours. Meeting after meeting. Email after email. We leave our desks drained, overstimulated and unfocused, only to go home, sit down again, and scroll some more. The result? Headaches, back pain, restless sleep, and rising rates of preventable disease. We know technology is breaking us down—so why can’t we break away? It’s a question that Manoush Zomorodi has always wanted to answer. As the host of the NPR's TED Radio Hour and Body Electric podcast, she has interviewed experts, conducted citizen experiments, and sought out research about how our digital lives are changing the way we think, learn, and feel. Now, in Body Electric, she presents an eye-opening investigation into the impact technology and sedentary living has had on our bodies and brains, from breath and eyesight to blood pressure, posture, and productivity, and shares what science (and tens of thousands of participants in a groundbreaking study with Columbia University Medical Center) have taught her—it’s the small shifts, not the digital detoxes, that will make us healthier. And all we need is five minutes. Filled with perspective-shifting data and real-life applications and tools, Body Electric is the next must-read for fans of Four Thousand Weeks and The Anxious Generation, and anyone else feeling trapped by their technology.

    A true masterpiece from beginning to end! Rich with beautiful prose and deep symbolism. Going to be thinking about this one for a while.

  • Show off you Bookish Merch/Art/Special Editions/Etc.

    Like the title says, I just really want to hear about everyone's favorite book/series and the kinds of merch/art/special editions/collections/etc. that folks have related to said book. Was having a conversation with someone and they showed me art they've bought for the Red Rising series, so now I'm curious to see more🙂

  • Happy Eastern Orthodox Easter.

    Happy Easter for all those who celebrate today forgive the title because like me if you celebrate today it’s just Easter but I don’t want people confused by the title. Since I am part of the Greek diaspora

    Χριστός Ανέστη!!
