Food To Chew On:

Saturday – Strength from The Changeless One

Malachi 3:6 (NKJV)

 “For I am the Lord, I do not change…

Thought For The Day:

But God hath promised

Strength for the day,

Rest for the labor,

Light for the way,

Grace for the trials,

Help from above,

Unfailing sympathy,

Undying love.

--Annie Johnson Flint

Arthritis Exercise Precautions

• Short exercise bouts are better tolerated than longer ones. Try breaking up your exercise into 15 minute sessions. Don't overwork your joints.

• Stretching exercise for arthritis can be safely performed every day, but strengthening exercises should be limited to 3 days a week.

 

MOVE…Shake Up Your Workout Routine

This was the title of the 4 hour workshop I signed up for “MOVE” with a picture of a beautiful wave of water rolling across the promo ad.   What made this die-hard, weight training professional decide to participate?  Curiousity,  regime boredom, and a need for personal inspiration.  

There we were.  Twenty participants staring at each other in the midst of this huge space.  Some of us were dressed for a workout and some of us were dressed for a yoga experience.  Some of us had our shoes on and some of us didn’t.  Some of us were open to conversation and some of us weren’t.  Every shape and size, every fitness level and adult age group were represented.  Our common bond to the moment – adventure to “MOVE”.  The music started and three instructors began to do what each of them does best, move.   Not the typical movement from my gym experiences.  One began Thai Chi moves, one began Free Moves, and one began Modern Dance.
