*Strength exercises build older adult muscles and increase your metabolism, which helps to keep your weight and blood sugar in check.

*Balance exercises build leg muscles, and this helps to prevent falls. According to the NIH, U.S. hospitals have 300,000 admissions for broken hips each year, many of them seniors, and falling is often the cause of those fractures.

*Stretching exercises can give you more freedom of movement, which will allow you to be more active during your senior years. Stretching exercises alone will not improve your endurance or strength.

*Endurance exercises are any activity—walking, jogging, swimming, biking, even raking leaves—that increase your heart rate and breathing for an extended period of time. Build up your endurance gradually, starting with as little as 5 minutes of endurance activities at a time.

POWER.

You can create it with just one degree of change.

211  to 212

On a hot burner, a one-degree change in temperature will cause water to boil.  Boiling water produces steam and steam powers a locomotive. 

A one-degree change in your routine will cause muscles to respond to your effort.  Responding muscles build strength to create change…to create POWER.

YOGA

What exactly is yoga? The Sanskrit word “yoga” means to yoke, to join, or to unite. When we practice yoga, we are learning or relearning the state of unity, harmony, and bliss in the body, mind, and the spirit. Over thousands of years, the science of yoga has proven itself an effective way to cultivate physical health, develop concentration, and experience a peace of mind.

Yoga is also a science of personal development. As you develop into the person you are intended to be, you’ll attain unity of the mind, body, and spirit through exercise, breathing, and meditation.

Yoga is a way to attain a healthy body and mind. A balanced yoga practice includes the following 5 principles that lead us toward good health:

1.      Proper relaxation

2.      Proper exercise

3.      Proper breathing

4.      Proper diet

5.      Positive thinking and meditation

              Yoga is a discipline. It is a skilled activity, and will take time to attain competence in any skilled activity. It takes practice, repetition, commitment, and dedication.
 

            Yoga leads us toward integration. Whether the yogic technique you practice be physical, mental, or behavioral, they will gradually bring together the inseparable body, mind, and spirit.
 

            Yoga is about consciously living life to the best of one’s ability. Ultimately, yoga is about learning to access, modify, and direct our physical and mental faculties. It’s about taking control or our lives and accepting responsibility for our behaviors, actions, and reactions.
 

            Wow! Did you think yoga was all that? Speaking from my own humble experience in teaching and practicing yoga, it is even more than that. It’s more than words can describe especially if you are able to learn to relax or even meditate. I would love to sit and tell you all the wonderful things yoga is but, you really just need to experience it yourself. I don’t have to prove to you it works, because it has been on earth for more than 5,000 years, I couldn’t possibly do it justice with my own experience to tell you of the many benefits I’ve had. Please if you care at all about your journey and your well-being, you’d want to at least try or retry yoga.    

 

Sincerely,   Angie
