These subscriptions are game-changing for my daily life.

Hi everyone, and happy newsletter day! I'm rushing to publish this blog post today because my agenda just got crazy, and I'm going with the flow. Today I want to wrap up with you my favorite subscriptions because they are game-changing for my daily life. 

I have decluttered even this part of my life and saved only the subscriptions I love and use daily. 

Entertainment

Audible

I started my Audible subscription when I got my eye surgery because I needed something to entertain me when I couldn't watch films and series or read. 

I love listening to books, especially when driving or doing my chores at home. It's different entertainment from music, but I love listening to novels or self-development books. It all started with the last Harry Potter book, and it reminded me of when I was a kid and I was listening to fairytales because I couldn't read yet. 

Streaming apps

I don't have a TV in my apartment, but my boyfriend and I subscribed to three streaming apps: Netflix, Amazon Prime Video, and Disney+. 

We love them for different reasons because their offers are particular and unique. For example, Amazon Prime Video is included in my Amazon Prime. In addition, Netflix has an extensive catalog of Christmas movies that I love and rewatch every year. But, then, Disney+ is my favorite when I need to feel like a kid again. 

Speaking of streaming, I have a subscription to Spotify Premium too. It's my favorite app for listening to music and podcasts. I chose to upgrade because I couldn't cope with the advertisement on the free version. 

Fitness

I switched my gym subscription to an app because I needed to save money and didn't want to go to the gym anymore. So, I found Balley, a platform to work out like a ballerina with a mix of pilates, yoga, and ballet training. I love it so much. I'm so motivated by these workouts and feel like a new person. 

Then, I use Apple Fitness+ to create some variety in my workout routine. So many disciplines have short and longer workouts, so fitting them into my agenda is perfect. 

Website management

Last but not least, I have some subscriptions to manage this website. 

Squarespace is my favorite app so far for building a website. It's perfect because I have everything in one place, from web designing to newsletter management. 

Then, I use Grammarly to write and proofread everything. Again, the paid version is game-changing.
