Food To Chew On:
Tuesday – Free Indeed
John 8:36 (NKJV)
Therefore if the Son makes you free, you shall be free
indeed.
Thought For The Day:
What distorted ideas of life keep people from being free?
Am I less than person Christ wants me to be because of any of these
debilitating ideas?
Along this life of ours we are going to go through the
“Tides of Life.” Some of the storms we will sale through and some looks like
there is no way we are going to make it … but God brings us through each and
every one of them …. And if you are in a storm right now just call on the Name
of Jesus… and it is the same way when we are learning a new way of living for
life…it looks like a storm but guest what you can make it…if you want to live..
so the question is how bad do you want it? And only you can make that choice,
so choose wisely!!! J
Fall Prevention In The Elderly
Single Limb Stance
Purpose of this exercise
•This exercise
will help train your brain to become more aware of just where your center of
gravity is located.
•It will also strengthen your ankles and hips for improved
stability.
How to do it:
Step 1
•Stand with feet
together and arms at sides.
Step 2
•Lift one leg and
balance on the other.
•Hold for 10 seconds, then repeat with the other leg.
Breathing:
•Keep breathing normally, in through the nose and out
through the mouth..
Tips:
•Use a chair as a place to not only perform seated
exercise but also to hold on to while standing. Hold on with your finger, one
hand or two hands.
•Don't close your eyes or hold your breath.
•Raise your arms out to the sides if you need more
balance.
Take it up a notch:
•Lift chest and
look straight ahead to make standing more challenging.
•Try adding a one pound ankle weight to one ankle.

To contrast true physical hunger that fuels our body with
nourishing food:
1.The hunger comes on gradually
2.You feel it
below the neck (belly hunger)
3.Occurs several
hours after your last meal
4.Can be satisfied
with an apple, carrot or any number of foods
5.You stop eating
when you are full
6.You feel
satisfied after eating
7.Does not leave
you feeling guilty or ashamed
So where do you
fall in your eating response? Are you an emotional eater or do you eat to fuel
your body? Life comes at us every day with all of its demands, so having a
toolbox of self-soothing techniques is important to our health. How do you
soothe yourself and relax?
