a stronger valentine

keeping my heart red and strong

for Valentines

walking 20-30 minutes 6 days a week

taking Kyolic Aged Garlic Extract for cholesterol health

changing my lifestyle and foods to lower cholesterol

my blood sugar is under control with Metformin

I have been taking high blood pressure medication for many years ..

this all adds up to a program to reduce my risk of heart disease

When I got to Yorkton and we were getting settled in I noticed my blood sugar was erratic and my digestion of foods

was not good.  I went to a new doctor and signed up with her as my family physician,

I am now being checked regularly every 3 months for good blood lab results.

a heart healthy sip of wine at bedtime is good too (perk)
i get a bottle of free wine when I assist my friend in
bottling her wines.

My shoulder/neck is much better and I have persisted every morning with

my shoulder rolls (Alexander).  It was very difficult and  shoulder stiff while doing these shoulder rolls but I went slow and stopped every time it stabbed a sore muscle at me.

I am doing yoga leg stretches and a quarter downward dog pose every day

and I attend a basic flow yoga class once a week.

(see this post-shoulder/malfunction)

This is the best phase in my life and I want to 

enjoy it!
