A Gentle Wellness Challenge? Say Less.

Plus, we're celebrating 20 years of "Twitches."

Today's newsletter was written and curated by Popsugar editor Taylor Andrews. Thank You, "Twitches," For Showing '90s Black Girls That We Are Magical Growing up in the '90s, the concept of "Black girl magic" didn't exist, health editor Alexis Jones writes. Not as a mindset, and certainly not as a representation in pop culture. "When Halloween came around and my peers were watching Marnie Piper unearth her Cromwell gifts, I wondered what magic little Black girls from New Jersey could possess," she continues. "I found it difficult to picture — the whole wand and magic combo. Even pretending to cast spells felt unnatural and discouraged in my church-every-Sunday Christian household. That was, until 'Twitches.'"  The film premiered 20 years ago, and to mark the anniversary, Alexis has some thoughts about what it taught her about Black girl magic.  Read More Editor Picks: Buzzy Products TikTok made us buy these, and we'd do it again.

The only catch is that you must pick one goal for each of the three categories: movement, avoiding avoidance, and practicing creativity. In an effort to pursue growth in a way that requires consistency, but not a strict "lock in," I decided to set some goals for my own personal 75 Grow. As a person with a chronic illness, I've spent the past few months in and out of hospitals and doctor's appointments, making it hard to maintain a consistent fitness routine. Now that I'm on the mend, I wanted to get back into a good routine of any kind. — Chandler Plante Read More PS . . .
