Spotlight

Get Your OM On

Summer is the best time of the year to dive into a new yoga practice. The days are longer, you have more energy to burn and those poses help make your fave outdoor activities that much easier. Even better, MyYogaWorks is offering Swirled readers one free month of unlimited access to its 1,000+ online yoga, fitness and meditation videos so you can zen out anytime, anywhere. [Swirled]

Life Hack Of The Day: Menu Edition

Wash your hands immediately after touching a restaurant menu. It can be one of the dirtiest things in a restaurant.

Power Up

Feeling Thirsty?

You may not know that you’re not drinking enough water. But if you have bad breath (oops), you’re always hungry (hello, munchies) and you’re feeling seriously grumpy, you may be dehydrated. Add a couple more 8-ounce glasses of water to your day just to be sure you’re getting enough H2O. [Swirled]

Squad Goals

Your positive friendships could help you live longer, due to the way we mimic the behaviors of people in our social networks. It’s almost like healthy lifestyles are contagious — if your friends eat healthy, exercise and laugh a lot, you will, too. And that’s great for your physical and emotional health.

Live Like A Boss

So Prime

Amazon Prime Day deals run out today, so now’s your last chance to snag $10 off your Prime Pantry grocery delivery purchase, 66 percent off your Audible membership and three months of Kindle Unlimited for $3. Just make sure to check out by 5 p.m.! [Swirled]

State Of Employment

When it comes to job searching, where you’re looking really matters. According to new data from WalletHub, Washington, Colorado, Minnesota, Utah and New Hampshire rank as the top five states for job opportunities, while West Virginia and Mississippi are the worst. [Swirled]

The Best Beats
As far as music streaming services go, there are two big dogs in the game (sorry, Tidal). The folks at Business Insider compared Spotify and Apple Music and found that Spotify beat Apple in sound quality and recommendation algorithms. That means Spotify will help you find new music that much easier. [Business Insider]

Savor Each Bite

Save At Starbs

We know you probably have that go-to Starbucks drink you order on the reg, but if you switch it up a tad, you can save a few bucks in the process. Ask for light ice, bring your own cup (that earns you $0.10 off the total price) and become a Starbucks Rewards member to rack up freebies. [Swirled]

Gimme The Good Stuff

So long, Hershey’s. It’s time to try some delish, under-the-radar chocolate brands. Want something ethical? Try Tony Chocolonely’s fair trade bars. All about style? Omnon’s graphic-wrapped bars are for you. Feeling fancy? You want Vosges truffles. [Swirled]

Recipe Of The Day

Enjoy all of those fresh Southern peaches in your summer dessert with these caramel peach snickerdoodle bars. They’re like your fave cinnamon cookie topped with gooey caramel and sweet peaches, all cooked in a cast-iron skillet. Yum. [Handle The Heat]

Pack Your Bags

Travel-Size Wins

Your skin still needs love when you’re on the road. From sunscreen to face wash, you want to find the perfect travel-size bottles for your next trip. We love Neutrogena Pure and Free Baby Sunscreen Broad Spectrum SPF 60+ and Simple Cleansing Facial Wipes to keep our skin protected, fresh and clean. [Swirled]

Tour It Up

If planning a vacation makes you more stressed than excited for your upcoming trip, you should take a group tour. For the adventurous traveler, there’s Under 30 Experiences or G Adventures. For the social butterfly, Contiki’s got your back. And newbies should give Intrepid Travel a try. [Swirled]
