Do you you want to age healthily?

"Healthy aging" will make the process much easier if you make an honest effort connect to all the dots.
One of the critical missing links in fitness programs is the lack of  "Poise and Balance" as part of the programs. This can create a great risk due for injuries from falls. "Physical equilibrium = Balance". Physical balance and poise have profound effect on the dignity and grace in our lives.  These are some of the exercises  that  I do on my way to the bus in the AM.

  • Walk on curb edge for a reasonable distance
  • Training devices for balance such as partially inflated balls
  • Move along lightly
  • Be more subtle and delicate in your movements (Poise)
  • Yoga or tai chi
  • Stand on one leg at a time for a good period of time for "you ..

Choose 4 of the above listed exercises and begin training today-You will be much happier each day and it will lower your risk of injury from a fall or illness.
It will increase the amount of oxygen flowing to your brain thus improving you brain.

I will be back to blogging regularly from now on .....Hippo
