Off Book: A Center Stage Nutrition Podcast

Today's episode is covering a really cool study covered by the Alzheimer's Reading Room (https://bit.ly/2pyZQn0) about a possible association with exercise and dementia. I also briefly mention the Washington Post's article on healthy living (https://wapo.st/2pBIfdW) Of course, I have a bunch of other thoughts about it, but I want to hear from you!

Today's tidbit is about exercise addiction and how to spot it. While I was researching this episode I decided I'd give you guys 3 quick red flags that your hobby might be more taxing on your life than you notice. These signs are also easy to spot in others, making it easier for you to decide if it's time to see a healthcare professional.

As a "sequel" to last episode, today's podcast is all about how to start talking with teens about exercise. I specifically share ideas on making exercise habits stick by talking more about the mental ("unseen") benefits of exercise, and how to take note of your view of exercise and how it could shape your teen's view. Here's the article I mentioned in the podcast: http://bit.ly/2HBA87U As always I'd love to hear from you! Call in, tweet me @citymousewrites, Instagram me @centerstagenutrition, and have a great rest of your day. :)

Inspired by GRRRL clothing and my post about teen athletes, today we talk a bit about why your teen daughter might be hesitant to work out, ways you can start the conversation, and the benefits of exercise (none of which are weight loss). GRRRL clothing is a female empowerment brand all about taking the shame out of doing anything "like a girl". All of their clothing is sized by athletes & measurements, not numbers, to remove the stigma of clothes shopping for women of all sizes. I love this clothing brand and think it makes an excellent addition to anyone's wardrobe!

In this episode, Em nerds out over why theatre is perfect to get conversations going about politics, muses over why Ragtime is a great show, and then proceeds to geek out over how amazing the Marriott Theatre's production was and why you should see it ASAP. The show itself is PG-13 and runs through March 18th, 2018.
