Weekly Links: some good reading from around the web

walk your way through the wilds of the Internet...

SOME INTERESTING LINKS FOR YOUR SUNDAY AFTERNOON, SET OUT IN MY USUAL CATEGORIES OF FAITH, FAMILY, AND FICTION...


Faith  

-"My 7 Tips to Better Self-Care": The author behind this wise article used to go to our church (and moved - sniff! we still miss you, Raven!), and she has some good words for all you busy people out there.

-"Lectio Divina and the Facebook Newsfeed": a call to read less and think about it more.

Family 

- "How Can I Get Rid of Belly Fat?" - okay, it's a clickbait title, but it chronicles an actually interesting little science experiment. (And, like most of my health links--indeed, this and the next, IIRC--I have to thank my friend Becca for sharing this one with me.)

-"Why One Neuroscientist Started Blasting His Core": and I thought this one was fascinating because it talks about the links between posture, the adrenal glands, and mental health. Turns out we're complicated, well-connected creatures.

Fiction 

-Brandon Sanderson (of Mistborn fame) has been putting up new recordings of his college-level speculative fiction writing class. I got a lot out of these last time they went up online, and have started watching this new batch. He's a such a good writer, but also a really good teacher. You can find them on YouTube, here.

-"There is no That": What's behind the work? The work. 


Peace of Christ to you,
Jessica Snell
