Culture To Grow

Episode 21: Birthday Culture Around the World Part 2

مینا و سامان در یک رستوران سنتی نشسته‌اند و وسطِ این همه غذای وسوسه‌کننده دنبال یک شام سبک و سالم می‌گردند. آن‌ها با حذف فسنجون و قورمه‌سبزی، به خاطر چربی پنهان و هضم سنگین، کم‌کم به انتخابی هوشمندانه می‌رسند: جوجه‌کبابِ سینه بدون کره، سبزی‌خوردن تازه، سالاد شیرازی با آب‌غوره و دوغِ پونه‌دار. 
!این گفت‌وگو یک راهنمای ساده برای انتخاب سالم‌تر غذاست، حتی وقتی منو پر از وسوسه باشد.


English Version:
Mina and Saman sit in a cozy traditional restaurant, trying to pick a light and healthy dinner from a tempting menu. As they eliminate heavy dishes like Fesenjan and Ghormeh Sabzi, they break down hidden fats, lost nutrients, and digestion problems. Their final smart choice? Grilled chicken breast without butter, fresh herbs, Shirazi salad with verjuice, and doogh with mint. A simple, thoughtful guide to choosing smarter meals — even in a restaurant full of temptations.

5 razones por qué “Yo soy Betty, la fea” es lo mejor

الرِيَاضَة تْسَاعِدْنَا نِبْقَى بِلَيَاقَة وصَحَّة جَسَدِيَة وَعَقْلِيَة جَيِدَة.
Sports help us stay fit and in good mental and physical health
مُمَارَسَة الرِيَاضَة مُمْكِن تْقَلِّل التَوَتُر و كَمَان تْزِيد التَرْكِيز فِي المَهَام اليَومِيَة.
Practicing sports can reduce stress and also increases the focus in the daily tasks
والرِيَاضَة تِلْعَب دَور مُهِم بِنَجَاح الإِنْسَان لأَنَهَا تْعَلِّم الإِنْسَان عالإِنْضِبَاط 
And the sport plays a main role in the success of the person because it teaches discipline to the person 
والرِيَاضَات الجَمَاعِيِة تْعَلِّمْنَا كَيف نِشْتَغِل كَفَرِيق.
Group sports teach us how to work as a team.
بِالإِضَافِة, الرِيَاضَات مُمْكِن تْسَاعِدْنَا نْكَوِّن أَصْحَاب جَدِيدِين
In addition, sports can help us make new friends
بِالمُقَابِل, مُشَاهَدَة الرِيَاضَة تُعْتَبَر طَرِيقَة جَيِّدَة للتَوَاصُل مع العَائِلَة والأَصْحَاب.
On the other hand, watching sports is considered as a great way to connect with family and friends.
بِشَكِل عَام, إِضَافِة الرِيَاضَة بِرُوتِينَنَا اليَومِي يْزِيد السَعَادَة بِالَحَياة.
In general, including sport in our daily routine increases the happiness in the life
