While juggling work, school, hobbies, and any other activities that may be draining your time, online grocery shopping can be a godsend for busy consumers. After all, the convenience of having your groceries delivered straight to your door or packed into your car curbside is unmatched, especially when it saves you from having to maneuver a rickety shopping cart through crowded grocery aisles and checkout lines. However, one of the largest retailers in the world–Costco–is surprisingly lagging when it comes to the online shopping scene. While the company saw a 3{1293bd4ef25ca86a622f6d9512ec3310653175851a143bae989351f0db04aea4} increase in sales in April compared to the prior year,…

Quiet quitting relies on finding a successful balance between work expectations and personal boundaries. Forbes shares this insight, “Quiet quitting your job, also referred to as “acting your wage,” ensures that your professional life stays within the bounds of working hours and assigned duties.” Quiet quitting is not quitting your job. Quiet quitting is described as doing your job without your job taking over your entire life. Quiet quitting was coined in a March 2022 tweet, and the idea has gained popularity as a work option. Employees have embraced this movement to set work boundaries, prioritize their interests outside the…

Below is an approximation of this video’s audio content. To see any graphs, charts, graphics, images, and quotes to which Dr. Greger may be referring, watch the above video. Anyone can lose weight eating less food. Anyone can be starved thin. Starvation diets are rarely sustainable, though, since hunger pangs drive us to eat. We feel unsatisfied on low calorie diets; unsatiated. We do have some level of voluntary control, but our deep-seated instinctual drives may win out in the end. For example, you can consciously hold your breath. Try it right now. How long can you go before your…

It’s time for a little reflection and review. Each December, I conduct my Annual Review (this is my sixth year) and I’ve found the process useful every time. As always, this Annual Review will answer three questions. What went well this year? What didn’t go so well this year? What did I learn? Before I begin, I should mention one thing: It’s always a little weird for me to share these Annual Reviews because when I talk about the good stuff it feels like I’m bragging and when I talk about the bad stuff it feels like I’m being strangely…

When body size is viewed as a referendum on beauty, we lose sight of this complex, harrowing reality; when we’re told that a body size is a trend, we naturally react to that information by competing—to take “in” or “out” sides. This dooms us to the cycle of body dissatisfaction that keeps us trapped in diet culture and, more urgently, shifts our focus away from creating a world where it’s safe for everyone to have the body they have. “Thin is in” glosses over the racist history of our cultural obsession with thinness.  We’ve witnessed exciting representational wins for people of color and fat people…

In zombie movies it typically starts the same way — the character is acting completely natural one minute — then somehow either they are infected by an unlucky scratch or bite.  Within minutes this individual is transformed from a rational human being into a terrifying monster.This quick, frightening transition is how I think about my obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD) related anger outbursts. Ironically in one zombie movie (28 Days Later) the infection is actually called the “Rage” virus. That is exactly what it feels like when my “OCD Rage” takes over.AdvertisementMy spouse and I may be having a completely normal…
