Gwyneth Paltrow 

Want to live like Gwyneth Paltrow?  Get to know the Gwyneth philosophies at her new website. 

Gwyneth Paltrow has launched her own lifestyle website, Goop.

Each of the sections, which include “Make,” “Go,” “Get,” “Do,” “Be,” and “See,” feature an essay written by Paltrow.

Describing it as ‘a little bit of everything that makes up my life’, Gwyneth’s site promises to deliver ‘some recipes, travel notes and fashion buys – and a few other surprises’ over the next few weeks.

“My life is good because I am not passive about it,” Paltrow writes. “I want to nourish what is real, and I want to do it without wasting time. I love to travel, to cook, to eat, to take care of my body and mind, to work hard. I love being a mother who has to overcome my bad qualities to be a good mother. I love being in spaces that are clean and nice.”

Some of her advice?

“Make your life good. Invest in what’s real,” Paltrow writes. “Cook a meal for someone you love. Pause before reacting. Clean out your space. Read something beautiful. Treat yourself to something. Go to a city you’ve never been to. Learn something new. Don’t be lazy. Workout and stick with it. GOOP. Make it great.”

What do you think about GOOP?

It could be an interesting read, if you can stomach Gwyneth’s slightly patronising self-help rhetoric.

We do like Gwyneth’s simple philosophies about life though.  We’re still torn about the idea.  The site is still under construction, so we’ll keep an eye out and see what develops.
