Stretching and Writing. Yes, do BOTH. Today!!

HI All!!!

Just wanted to check in.  I've been super busy writing some new books.  Well, I should say  "putting together" some new books.  A couple of them are children's books "written" by my Cat Lily.  They are photos for the most part.  Educational and fun type books.  They don't have a lot of text, but they are still very time consuming.   No matter!  I still need to get better about checking in here.  One of my new books is an informative book and I intend to list my blog address so if anyone has questions after reading my book, they can ask me here.  We'll ALL learn something that way.  I'm all about Learning, and fun.  Having fun WHILE learning................ Bonus!!    This newest book is taking a toll on me.  Too much sitting.  I have to get up and Stretch off and on...   That is VERY important.  If I go a day without my stretches, I surely feel it.  Makes for less restful sleep, and therefore orneriness and therefore moodiness and therefore sadness and therefore less productivity and therefore ---Just stretch, ok?  A lot.  All thru the day.  It only takes a moment here and there and it will make a HUGE difference in your health.  Your energy.  Your flexibility.  Your mood.  Your... everything. 

But which stretches exactly, NitaB?  I hear ya out there!!!  You can research on the web to see which stretches are best for YOU.  Or what I do is basic stretches.  Just stand and reach for the ceiling.  Really reach, as if there is really a chance of you touching it.  Reach with one hand, then the other, then both.  That really helps Me.  Toe touches are good... but only after you are warmed up by moving around some.  Cold toe touches can pull a hamstring.  However toe touches upon a warmed up body... stretches the hamstrings and takes a load off your back. 

And SIT UP STRAIGHT!  I got me this little seat thingy, called a BackJoy.  It is a simple little thing, but it is shaped in such a way that if you don't sit up straight, it isn't comfy to sit on.  So --- Sit up straight already!  It makes a world of difference.  Especially if you are sitting a lot to write.  Yes, you!  WRITE!  Everyone has a book in them.  EVERYONE!  So write your book and then get with me, and I'll help you go to the next level.  Nothing to it really.  It just SEEMS time consuming and difficult.  I promise you.... I am about as flighty as they come.  If I can put together a book, or 6... YOU can too.  Get on it!  And then get back to me. 

Alrighty then.  NitaB out!!  :)    Have a GREAT DAY!  I mean it!!
