Rave ReviewsWe receive feedback, kudos and thanks for Experience Life everyday. Here are just a few we'd like to share. What readers say ...Wow! I bought your magazine on a whim today, enticed by Dara Torres. I thought she was in her 20s ans was wowed when I read the article and found out that she is 41! Go for the gold, Dara! Your magazine is the first magazine I have ever read from cover to cover in one sitting. It has everything I need to help me with my fitness goals and my personal and professional goals. Thanks! Outstanding magazine! The information is invaluable to those of us who want to grow strong both mentally and physically. It's packed with common sense, and to me that's what makes a solid foundation for a balanced life: instructive, educational and reliable facts. I'm looking forward to the next issue and beyond. I wish you and your talented staff continued success! I was just browsing your site and found your mag's "digital edition." Wow! Finally, online editorial content that presents information as it was meant to be consumed! Extremely progressive! Love it! I'd like to compliment you and your entire staff on your magazine — it is
really outstanding! I find the content to be wonderfully varied, speaking to
readers who may be avid athletes to those who are just getting started. Your
integration of mind-body concepts has been eye-opening for me and my family, and
the layout is attractive and easy to read. Thanks for continually producing a
great magazine — you've done a terrific job. This is my very first letter to a magazine ever. I just want to thank you
very much for what you're doing. I've been receiving Experience Life
for about three years now and I read every issue cover to cover. I really,
really enjoy it, and I've brought many ideas from it to my life and my family.
I love your magazine. I've been reading a garden variety of health
publications for years. Experience Life offers a unique collection of
articles that are interesting, informative and have a great way of sparking
interest in old and new areas. I even found myself causing a buzz at work about
quinoa after reading your article ("Quinoa," March 2008). Keep up the good work!
I picked up your publication for the first time at my hair salon — what a
great magazine! Most magazines that focus on holistic living, while I
love
them all, don't speak to the average person easing him/herself
into a clean
living lifestyle. Kudos to you for bridging the gap!
Your magazine is the best around! I am like so many other readers who read
your issues cover to cover and enjoy aspects of each issue. I especially want to
thank you for the noticeable absence of prescription drug advertisements. I
don't know if this is a conscious decision or simply a happenstance, but with
the overwhelming majority of doctors, public health officials, news media, TV
shows, magazines and other advertising sources urging us to consider drug
therapies as a requirement, your magazine is a breath of fresh air. Not only do
your articles promote helathy alternatives (including the all-important
preventative care), but your advertising content seems to support this. What a
brave and refreshing choice! One year ago I visited my sister. I was feeling lost in my workouts and went
with her to Life Time Fitness saying, "Show me what you do." After an hour of
working out and catching up, I had a new cardio plan that contributed to a new
path for my life. As we were sipping a postworkout drink in the cafe, I noticed
your magazine; a month later, I had my own subscription, which has pushed me
along my journey with ideas for training, eating and achieving goals. In a few
months, I lost 10 pounds, became the fittest I've ever been in my 35 years,
changed my diet and hired a coach to help me prepare for my first competitive
season in beach volleyball! Your articles support our choices to truly
experience life with plenty of food for thought as we navigate our own paths.
I am just now getting to your November 2007 issue (I got
a bit
behind last year — oops), and I just finished reading a
letter you
printed from a woman who refers to Experience
Life as "a
glossy,
superficial magazine" and who ends her
comments with "I am
insulted by the
patronizing, superior tone
of this article, but I have
to say it is
characteristic of
your publication." I have been meaning
to write to you for
some time, but this letter finally pushed me to do
it. I don't
know why this
woman is so angry, but I have to say that I
have
never found a magazine that is
less superficial or patronizing
than yours. I used to read other fitness
magazines, but I was
really
tired of all the articles about how exercising will
make your sex life
better and how you can eat all the crappy
food you want as
long as you
don't go over some ridiculously
low — not to mention unhealthy — number of
calories.
When I first stumbled upon your magazine, I was
immediately drawn to
the cover, which featured a woman who
radiated
health and beauty (I
believe it was the
January/February 2006 issue), rather than the
typical
toothpicky, no-muscle-tone models that are on the front of all
the
other
so-called fitness magazines. I read that first issue from
cover to cover, and
then I couldn't rest until I figured out
how to get
a subscription. I have thoroughly enjoyed every issue I have
read since
(including the
article entitled "A Better Birth,"
which this woman
seemed so upset by — it was
truly informative
and helped me to decide
how my children will be born when that
time comes for me). I want to
say thank you, thank you,
thank you, for such
an outstanding
publication! I
think you people are doing a very wonderful thing
with
this
magazine. I have become so much healthier due to the excellent
nutrition and fitness articles you write; I have become more
aware of
environmental issues (more "green" if you will); and I am now
looking
into a
major career change from CPA to Life Coach due
in part to the
inspiration I have
received reading your
magazine. Once again, thank
you so much for all you
do! What the experts say ...Experience Life magazine offers a refreshingly new approach to whole health. The look is sharp, the content is cutting edge, and the articles tell the truth about what it takes to build a great body and a great life. So if you're tired of the same old fads or "quick fix" gimmicks that most fitness magazines offer, pick up a copy of Experience Life and see what it takes to create real, long-lasting success!
