We all have them, days that we just don't make it to the gym and the expected walk around the park didn't happen either. Today was one of those days.
So here I sit thinking: What I can easily do right here and right now? I want to something that feels GREAT and something I don't have to think about. Something that "opens the door and flows through the whole place".
I LOVE body movement. Especially moves that stretch my muscles. Taking a stretchy band and starting with it in my hands held apart and stretched to the point of very firm tension. I just move my arms back and forth as much as I can without relaxing the tension. I can make the band one or two layers, it just changes the effort it takes to engage your arm muscles. Then I just move my body with the idea of "stretching" your muscles until it feels wonderful. Your workout follows your imagination - which makes it "free form". Just try it, I found moving with my stretchy band was really relaxing- nothing is right or wrong-just move and stretch. Your body will let you know what feels good.
Wow...it really felt great!! Good idea Mary!!
I can, I will!!
P. S. In all honesty, I have found stretching with a stretchy band is a real "turn on" if you do it front of your loved one. I don't necessarily mean right in front of....the same room works!!
I really can, I really will!
