I had a great session at the gym today. Before I went in, I walked a mile in the parking lot and jogged the lap back. After workout, I took another stroll around the parking lot. I like that better than walking the treadmill. I know the importance of arms swinging free as you walk. The motions of us walking and swinging our arms help synchronize both hemispheres of the brain so we have more brainpower, Then I came home and cut oak branches and dead palm fronds mowed the front yard and re-routed 30 feet of giant pothos between the bottlebrush tree and the giant oak it’s hanging down from. I enjoy having an active day and working up a sweat. It lets me know my body is working!
