Toning your body

So today is the first time I let my mother try out Wai Lana Yoga's Toning workout with me. She's been practicing a bit of yoga with me now that she's been around. I was pleasantly surprised at how much she loved it. She said, "My I haven't been challenged like this in so long." It's hard to think of her as the gymnast that she was as a young girl now! The funny (or sad) thing is that her back, at her age, is still more flexible than mine.

After these few days of her trying out yoga, she's asked me to get her a Wai Lana Yoga Mat. How could I refuse such a healthy request, right?

In the meantime, I have all these beautiful summer flowers just like these ones growing so wonderfully in my garden:

Gem of the week

I am very tired today. I just finished fixing our garden. I trimmed all the bushes and trees and watered, dug some beds.

Here is a beautiful Gem from Wailana's Medstation:

A bit of fragrance always clings to the hand that gives roses.
Chinese proverb


Do enjoy. A thought to ponder upon.

Tight shoulders

I've had a stiff neck and tight shoulders for the past couple days. I've been doing a lot of gardening, so it's been tiring. I'm just excited, I can't wait til my garden comes fully alive... and my compost will look like this: And my veggies?


Anyhow, here's a short video clip of Wailana's exercise which never fails to loosen and soften up my shoulders and back. It's great stuff.

All healthy.. all happy
