Magazine Genre Research pt1 - History

 

 

                                 WELCOME TO PART 1 OF MY MAGAZINE RESEARCH !

Today I will be discussing the history of the magazine genres and styles that I am interested in utilizing for my final magazine product. The genres that I am interested in are spirituality and health and fitness. Researching and learning the history of these magazines can help me perfect the production and outcome of my magazine.

Firstly, magazines with the main talking point of Spirituality and Health focuses on providing inspiration for a sustainable living filled with healthy diets , awareness and spiritual practices such as meditation, breathing exercises, prayer and yoga. The " Spirituality and Health" magazine was primarily influenced and founded by T George Harris. Spirituality and Health was not always a prominent genre in magazine content and still has grounds to grow. Spirituality, is of course not a topic that is widely celebrated or talked about on content as big as magazines. However, this is clearly coming to change with magazines such as "Spirituality and Health" and " ConciousLifestyle" and many more coming to a rise. As scientists and officials come out with new studies promoting the ministering of spirituality and its importance, this genre continues to evolve and gain a stronger hold in the media and is indeed giving its fair contribution to society.
