A Daily Dose of Fit by Tara

A Daily Dose of Fit is both a guilty pleasure (once a writer, always a writer) and a supplement to my personal training business. My goal is to inspire you, my clients and my readers, with my thoughts, experience and expertise as they relate to living the fit life. I’ve always been a fairly active individual and as such, I’ve come to appreciate the exceptional way I feel after a good sweat session—and that’s something I want to help you appreciate, too.

Healthy Tipping Point by Caitlin

My name is Caitlin Boyle, I’m 28 years old, and I live in Charlotte, North Carolina with my Husband and my two dogs.  This blog documents my life as I strive to maintain health and balance.  By sharing my fitness tips and healthy recipes, I hope I can inspire you to live your best life as well.  In addition to blogging, I’m an author of three books, including one healthy living guide.

To me, the Healthy Tipping Point is when we stop “trying” to live healthy and centered lives and it just happens. For so many years I struggled to eat well and work out regularly, and then one day — all my little efforts culminated inside me, and I felt balanced in terms of my eating and running habits!

Carrots ‘N’ Cake by Tina

“I love food, and I love eating! While I try to fill my diet with mostly healthy foods, I have a number of favorites that are not necessarily nutritious, but are still delicious and fun to eat. If eaten in moderation, I believe that the “bad” foods can be part of an overall healthy diet. This food philosophy is the inspiration for Carrots ‘N’ Cake.”

Be sure to check out Tina’s book: “Carrots ‘N’ Cake: Healthy Living One Carrot and Cupcake at a Time.

Ground Breaking Organizations to Support

Operation Beautiful

“The goal of the Operation Beautiful website is to end negative self-talk or “Fat Talk.”  If this little blog only does one productive thing, I hope it helps readers realize how truly toxic negative self-talk is  — it hurts you emotionally, spiritually, and physically.”

 

Freedom to Marry

“Freedom to Marry is the campaign to win marriage nationwide. We are pursuing our Roadmap to Victory by working to win the freedom to marry in more states, grow the national majority for marriage, and end federal marriage discrimination. We partner with individuals and organizations across the country to end the exclusion of same-sex couples from marriage and the protections, responsibilities, and commitment that marriage brings.”

 

 

It Gets Better

“Growing up isn’t easy. Many young people face daily tormenting and bullying, leading them to feel like they have nowhere to turn. This is especially true for LGBT kids and teens, who often hide their sexuality for fear of bullying. Without other openly gay adults and mentors in their lives, they can’t imagine what their future may hold. In many instances, gay and lesbian adolescents are taunted — even tortured — simply for being themselves.

While many of these teens couldn’t see a positive future for themselves, we can. The It Gets Better Project was created to show young LGBT people the levels of happiness, potential, and positivity their lives will reach – if they can just get through their teen years. The It Gets Better Project wants to remind teenagers in the LGBT community that they are not alone — and it WILL get better.”

Happy Hearts Fund

“Happy Hearts Fund is a non-profit foundation dedicated to improving children’s lives through educational and sustainable programs in natural disaster areas. Globally, HHF has built/rebuilt 50 schools and kindergartens. Their programs have benefited more than 31,000 children and 335,000 community members.”
