Dedicate An Hour Of Your Day Today

Here's Your Healthy Tip of the Day:  yesterday, I dedicted my hour-long yoga practice to a friend who always is there for me with love, kindness and wisdom.  All my good intentions during that hour went to my dear friend; a small way to give something back to her.  Today, dedicate an hour to someone who has been kind to you, or send your thoughts to a person in your life who needs positive energy.  Organized religion would call it prayer....I call it paying it forward.

Yoga Shmoga

Today, I did an hour class of Vinyasa (flow) yoga.  Having mangled one of my knees dancing for hours in 4 inch stilettos, post physical alignment and acupuncture lent to a yoga class to strengthen, lengthen and relieve the swelling of the painful joint.

Here's Your Healthy Tip of the Day:  Do some yoga.  It's good for you!  Yoga improves blood and lymphatic circulation.  It helps rebuild nectrotic myofascial tissue, helps lower blood pressure, lengthens, strenthens and tones muscles.   I don't do yoga because I think it's such fun, fun and more fun.  I do yoga because it allows me to continue doing the other activities in life I love...but, maybe I oughta lay off the dancing in the 4 inch heels for a while.
