Food To Chew On:
Tuesday – Where Your Name Is Written
Isaiah 49:15-16 (NKJV)
I will not forget you. See, I have inscribed you on the
palms of My hands..
Thought For The Day:
“At the heart of the cyclone
Tearing the sky
And
flinging the cloud and towers by
Is a place of central calm
And so is the roar of mortal things
There is a place where my spirit sings
In the hallow of God’s palm.”-Edwin Markham
Teaching Tuesday, so very important that “each one teach
one and each one reach one.” We share what we are doing and as a result we are getting
stronger… Always remember a Teacher learns twice! J So keep on Teaching!!!
Your
lower back health
Abdominal strengthening exercises are important for the
overall health of your back. These include crunches and leg lifts.
Make sure to perform these with the knees bent.
Exercises for the shoulders, hamstrings and buttock are
also important in maintaining good core strength.
These would include arm lifts, bridging, hip extension,
and pelvic tilts.
Posture and stretching exercises are important for safety
and range of motion during lower back pain exercise.
Spinal extension exercises are a good choice in
strengthening the low back and have been shown effective in reducing symptoms.
Include a low-impact workout for your lower back pain
exercise to lose weight which can help reduce your lower back pain.
This generally involves proper diet along with regular
aerobic exercise 3 to 5 times per week for at least an hour.
Thought
compilation of the movement experience:
Release, jump,
run, laugh, sweat, enjoy, participate, try, and experience something new.
•Play, let go,
interpret, trust, bond, and be in the moment.
•Move, flow,
dance, unite, internalize, and externalize some power.
•Question, doubt,
reject, interact with others, and embrace new motion.
•Experiment, try
new things, enjoy the energy.
•It’s okay to find
our own dance interpretation and move to our own rhythms.
•Music is a
powerful motivator of both quiet and intense movement.
•Move, just move.
My personal take away is to remind myself of the value of
different forms of motion. For me dancing has always been joyful. Why haven’t I been challenging how I work out
and play? It’s so good to break free
from traditional exercise methods every now and again. The energy is different. There is power in movement when we allow
ourselves the freedom to play with it.
These classes are an excellent avenue for team building, small groups,
groups of friends, and even family groups!
Google what’s available in your corner of the fitness world (Try:
powerstrike.com, poundfit.com, surfsetfitness.com, gofigurestudios.com). Find
out where you can shake up your fitness routine. There are so many new fitness techniques
breaking the norm. Try a new class. Find a wave.
Move.
