Top 5 Midlife & Menopause Books You Should Be Reading per Heather Hirsch M.D.

 

In seeking out more book titles about menopause,

I came across the above video on YouTube!

I stumbled across Dr. Heather Hirsch's YouTube channel

while using the search term 'best menopause books'.

Since Dr. Hirsch's video was uploaded to YouTube 

relatively recently and was under 11 minutes in length,

I decided to watch it. I'm sure glad I watched the video as Dr. Hirsch provided nice information regarding each book 

and why she picked them.

The above video offers other books to consider reading when learning more about menopause.

Brick and Mortar Bookstores Are BOOMING Once Again!!

 

I'm thrilled to hear both brick and mortar chain bookstores and independent bookstores are thriving and gaining ground once again!! It's been so easy for us all to buy books online through Amazon and the like and have books shipped to us or downloaded to our e-readers.

 Plus, during the pandemic, people weren't doing much in store shopping. 

So, it's thrilling to see a resurgence of brick and mortar bookstores popping up around the USA.

Top Ten Tuesday - Non-book Freebie - Top Ten Favorite YouTube Channels

Top Ten Tuesday is an original feature/weekly meme hosted by Jana @ That Artsy Reader Girl. Top Ten Tuesday was originally created by The Broke and the Bookish in June of 2010 and was moved to That Artsy Reader Girl in January of 2018. It was born of a love of lists, a love of books, and a desire to bring bookish friends together.

My husband and I have become YouTube addicts over the past few years, ditching regular, cable television for YouTube instead. We don't always watch the same YouTube channels though. Below are ten of my favorite YouTube channels in no particular order of preference.

1. Dr. John Campbell PhD - I love Dr. Campbell's YouTube channel. He's a retired nurse teacher in England.

2. Dr. Eric Berg DC - you can find a lot of different health related topics presented on Dr. Berg's channel, including information on the keto diet and intermittent fasting.

3. Medicine with Dr. Moran MD - Dr. Moran's videos are on a wide variety of medical topics which include topics on diet, sleep and exercise.

4. So Woolly - A knitting channel with easy to follow tutorials! I am a knitter and this is one of my favorite knitting channels.

5. Studio Knit - Another knitting channel with easy to follow tutorials! I am a knitter and this is another one of my favorite knitting channels.

6. Marly Bird - Another knitting and crocheting channel that I also love! Marly Bird makes knitting and crocheting fun to learn.

7. The Mingled Yarncast - This is a newer yarn/knitting vlog! I love the enthusiasm of the host, Stephen aka Knitphen. His shows are never boring and his finished knitted items are amazing!

8. CriminOlly - Olly is a book tuber in the UK who focuses his vlog on crime, pulp, and horror genres for the most part. I don't read a lot of books from these genres, but I do like the content and how it is presented.

9. Brady Brandwood - I love his channel for his videos on Leon the Lobster. Leon is a lobster that was purchased/rescued from a grocery store and is now being kept in am aquarium vs being eaten. The videos are interesting as it is fun to watch a lobster in action. Who knew lobsters could be so entertaining?

10. Kuma's Kitchen - A cooking channel with original recipes. I've been watching this channel for quite a few years... I don'y even cook, BUT I love the host's (Kevin Riley) enthusiasm. Kevin Riley's tagline for his channel is "Make cooking fun again."
