Day 32 of Sadhana, did Qi Gong For Seniors.
Don't laugh - I'm not a senior yet, but this is an incredibly relaxing feel good practice! It includes stretching, range of motion exercises, balance exercises, Qi self massage, and a gentle flow segment. There are three ways you can do this workout - you can choose to do the routine standing or modified - either seated (as demonstrated by Lee's mother, Karen) or standing with a chair for stability. I could not stop yawning through out -I felt so relaxed during and after!

Day 37 of 40 day Sadhana. Today I did Qi Gong for Upper Back and Neck Pain. I had a lot going on today and really had to make an effort to put myself first and do the workout despite having a bunch of things to do. I think often I forget to make time to do something healthy for me. Feeling good inside & out that I did Qi Gong today!!

Day 38 of 40 day Sadhana. I did Qi Gong for Low Back Pain, since I woke up with my lower back tight. Feeling warm and stretched out.

Day 39 of my 40 day Sadhana and I did Qi Gong for Stress. I don't know why I don't do this each and every day - it simply feels wonderful!

40 Day Sadhana

I purchased the newest set of Classical Stretch a few months ago and that is about all I have been doing since I last checked in. There is a fantastic episode for PF (Plantar Fasciitis) that I can't stop doing!



Since tonight is the Autumnal Equinox and the start of fall, I am committing to a 40 day Sadhana of Yoga & Qi Gong. Today I did Yoga for Stress Relief and was a big pile of mush - it felt so wonderful, warm, needed.

Workouts

After all the snow yesterday I am hurting from shoveling multiple times. My knee is still weird - feels off/out of alignment, but I am taking it easy and being careful when I walk or do anything. Despite being sore from shoveling the snow, today I did:

~Happy Thanksgiving!~

I thought todays workout of the day was appropriate being Thanksgiving and all, I know I will overindulge!  lol ...

 

 

I have so much to be thankful for this day and every. I’m especially thankful for my husband, our fur & feather babies, our first house and all the luxuries a house affords us, our health, extended family, life.

 

I am spending today with loved ones and cooking our first holiday/Thanksgiving dinner in this house. 

 

Wishing everyone a holiday filled with love & comfort.

 





Update & Workouts

I have been recently diagnosed with a condition that unfortunately has no cure or medicine to treat it. I feel as if the rug has been pulled out from under me. At times over the past couple weeks I have felt relief, curious, sorry for myself, depressed, angry at doctors and my parents, sad, frustrated, and overwhelmed. Sometimes I feel like ignorance was bliss and perhaps not knowing would have been better, but other times I feel hope that maybe I'll be able to find some relief. Holistic doctors recommend Qi Gong and improving posture to unblock chi, so I’m sure you will see me posting a lot of Qi Gong, stretching, and Yoga workouts to see if they help. I will be seeing a specialist soon, so occupational therapy may also be another avenue I try.

I’ve been told a gluten-free diet may also help. I admit I do not know a lot about it other than to avoid wheat; common in bread, pasta, and faux soy meats. I am learning more and will try this route to see if it helps. My husband picked up some gluten-free bread this morning and we were shocked by the price - $6 for half a loaf. Why is it if a product has something removed from it, it costs more?? Anyway, so long pizza, pasta, fake meats – I know they weren’t healthy anyway, on the bright side, maybe this will help speed up weight loss efforts.
