Top 50 Blogs to Help You Lead a Healthy, Meaningful Life

The blogosphere provides an opportunity for people with specific life experience to reach out to the world and find others who are dealing with the same issues and need someone to connect with. This is the most apparent when reading blogs that write about health, addictions, stress, nutrition, weight loss issues, meditation, yoga and wellbeing.

Like all of these bloggers, here at Bioresonance.com our aim is to heal people and empower them to become the best version of themselves.  

Here’s our top list of 50 blogs to help you live a healthy, stress free and meaningful life.

Fit Bottomed Girls

Fit bottomed girls (FBG) started when Jennipher Walters and Erin Whitehead met in a publishing company in Kansas City. Two of them shared a carpool and an interest in living a healthy life and exercising regularly. The blog came about out of these kinds of conversation and the desire to keep each other motivated when it comes to diets and exercise. Kristen Seymor, who edited an AOL fitness blog, joined in a couple of years later and became a full partner in 2015. FBG prides itself on the fact that it proves that being fit doesn’t mean depriving yourself of life pleasure.

Dai Manuel - Whole Life and Fitness Manifesto

Dai Manuel is a fitness instructor who has made fitness into a lifestyle. As with so many other bloggers, his professional journey is linked with a personal one. He was an obese teenager, dealing with health issues and social stigma that comes with it. At age 14, Manuel turned his life around with a strict regime of physical fitness, carefully regulated nutrition and a change in attitude. The blog is based on the principles learned from this experience and it comes in form of both practical advice and psychological help and motivation.

Peas and Crayons

Jenn Laughlin started a blog about food and art as a hobby when her Marine husband had to “move to a middle of nowhere”. Her expertise in nutrition and a simple but effective recipe blog (What I ate Wednesday) that she ran gave her a nice head start. The blog tries to take out all that boring planning and calories counting out of the equation and focus on healthy diet in more general terms (hence the peas). There’s also a personal part of P&C called story time in which the author shares personal stories in a lovely, quirky, and intimate tone.

The Sobriety Collective

"The sobriety collective is a recovery hub, founded and run by Laura Silverman. Laura was hospitalized for alcohol poisoning in 2007, which was a culmination of her 6 years long battle with addiction. She is not currently an active member of any 12 step program (and hasn't been for years) and while AA was helpful in various parts of her recovery, it is just a small part of a large/diverse recovery menu.

The blog provides advice, personal testimonials and most importantly it deals with asking for help and acknowledging the existence of the problem, which is the first (and hardest) step in fighting alcohol abuse. It features a lot of guest bloggers writing about personal experiences and the lessons learned from them.

Laura also created a community for creatives in recovery with a program-agnostic approach - she wanted to provide a 12-step alternative, because when she was getting sober in her early days, all she saw was Alcoholics Anonymous and that didn't resonate with her."
