I would say most people do not like to do squats, but some people probably do. The other day I was reading an article on bone health and preventing Osteoporosis.

Tomorrow, March 1, 2021 I will be sharing a very exciting kidney update. Be sure to come back to check it. Welcome back to Sweating on Sunday! I can’t even work up a sweat it is so cold right now in Florida. If I get warm I am happy, lol. It was 27 this morning, […]
Happy Sunday! It is another cool, dreary day in Florida. I do not mind the cool weather, matter of fact I welcome it. But, the gray, damp, dreary I could do without. I am a sunshine girl! Part of my self care routine is gardening and yardwork. Yes, yardwork! I find yardwork soothing even if […]
If you have ever visited a doctor then you know one of the things they are regularly going to ask, or advise is to move more. To get more exercise, be more active, be physically fit.

But, Mindful Walking will not focus on the exercise but rather experiencing everything about the walk, in the moment. If you think of who, what, where, when, […]

I am back from vacation, and feeling revived! We didn’t actually go anywhere, but we did have family come visit, and did a lot of relaxing. I love to relax, especially since it never seems to happen very often, lol. My daughter is officially done with the homeschool year, and it was perfect time to […]
