What Is LIFESTYLE?

The term LIFESTYLE came into use during the middle part of the twentieth century. The origin of the word is from the French word leggestier (meaning less fortunate) in reference to the youth of that era. Lifestyle is the attitudes, beliefs, behaviors, and orientations of a particular person, group, or society. The word was first introduced by Austrian psychiatrist Alfred Adler in his famous article, The Case of Miss R. in his 1929 book.

For example, in The Case of Miss R. many people criticized Adler for being too lenient on prison offenders while at the same time punishing overly zealous church goers and other citizens who exhibited religious views contrary to State policy. The word “blog” first appeared in the print media in 2021 with its online version. Today there are many different types of LIFESTYLE blogs. Some are in-depth reviews of products and services, while others simply are personal reflections of the blogger’s life. Regardless of the blogs focus however, there is a basic similarity in that every LIFESTYLE blog is primarily about a single lifestyle.

In the case of the 21st century, the writer may be a single person with a home business and a variety of LIFESTYLE blogs to share his/her adventures and experiences. The lifestyle blog could be a reference to the single life of a dating and relationship blogger or could be a personal reflection of the dating and relationship blogger. It could also be a work at home business or simply a way to earn an income. Whatever the blogger’s purpose, the blog shares a common theme: discovering what makes people happy and pursuing happiness.
