To Chew On:
Tuesday
– Living Without Fear
Isaiah
41:10 (NKJV)
Fear not, for I am with you; Be not dismayed,
for I am your God.
I
will strengthen you, Yes, I will help you, I will uphold you with My righteous
right hand.’
Thought
For The Day:
What
would it be like for you to be fearless? Do we have a clear image of that? Ask
Christ to reveal it to you and them live it today….Amen
On
this beautiful Tuesday, our title is “Togetherness Tuesday.” Even if you are
single you are never alone… Togetherness is with family or friends, what I love
about togetherness is that we build and bond that is hard to break and something’s our
friends are closer than our very own family…. So Let’s Come Together and Exercise
& Eat to Live not Live to Eat…

Hand
exercises for seniors and the elderly are a wonderful component to your daily
stretching routine.
Our
hands are usually the first thing we notice in the morning that has stiffened
up overnight.
Hand
exercises like the hand stretch below will help loosen up the fingers and
palm. See the flexibility page for more
tips and information on flexibility.
A good idea for warming up your hands is to
use a microwave hot pack before stretching.
This
will increase the temperature of the tissues under the skin including ligaments
and tendons, which will make them much more elastic.
Try
it and see how much further you can open and close your hand.
