Win a Subscription to Live Happy Magazine

Disclosure- We received the below in order to facilitate this review. All opinions are our own and honest.

Looking for a good read? If you are like me, the answer is “yes, always”. I recently came upon a new(ish) magazine, one that I had never heard of. It’s called “Live Happy” and it is all about things you can do to bring more positive energy into your life, ways to make positive changes, and how to be genuinely happy. Not one article about “keeping my man” or “how to drop 27 lbs in 15 minutes” or anything like that- it was all about making changes, even in how you think, to make your life better and more fulfilling to you.

Becoming more grateful, looking at things from a different light, and figuring out what really makes you happy can take work for some of us. It was inspiring reading others stories and thoughts on happiness, how to bring more inner peace and joy to your day. I really enjoyed the positive thinking and tips to give your mood a boost. There are also articles on food and meditation, getting ahead of stress, and interviews with interesting people.

My son with this month’s magazine

Over the next few months, we will be featuring a line of Cricket Media magazines. For our second feature we will be featuring Cricket’s science and arts magazine Ask. This month’s feature is Ask, geared toward 7-10 year olds.

The key feature of Ask revolves around arts and science to keep curious minds interested. With either answering good questions about the environment and creatures around them of explaining some difficult concepts in terms kids can understand Ask tackles some fun topics like what do to if you see a bear and even has some experiments such as making a field journal and comic strips too.

Some of Ask’s recurring sections include Marvin and Friends, which follow a case of characters who comment on the articles in the margins, Contests and Letters which is a section with contributions by readers, Scoops, Ask Jimmy and the Bug and many more.
