Dear Friends,
Sooner or later I had to introduce you to my sister.
Earlier today, we had a heated discussion that brought up all kinds of long-standing sibling rivalry issues between us.
I caved in to her demands and decided to let her share her message with you, (though this is my newsletter.
As you can imagine, it is not easy dealing with a know it all.
Marital experts say it is better to be kind than to be right. And in this instance, when dealing with my sister, though we are not married, it seemed wise to heed this bit of advice to promote harmony in our family life.
So rather than seek to assert my dominance in our tenuous sibling relationship, I decided to let her have a go at sharing her love of disco music, thinly disguised as a form of exercise.
I know there are some serious musicians among our subscribers - including a professor of musicology, at least three professional pianists, a music composer and song writer, and a vocalist.
There is also an epidemiologist among our subscribers.
My apologies to all of you.
Rx: If you sit for long hours at the computer, be sure to get up every hour and stretch and move. And if you are a dentist or dental hygienist who spends endless hours in what my sister calls “the curved shrimp” position as you peer into people’s mouths, please be sure to also get up and stretch like she demonstrates in the video.
Please remember to move your upper body as well during these periodic breaks.
Get creative. Use Risk Factor Mama’s moves as a starting point - and may you be inspired to move to any music of your choice.
To your health!
