Looking after ourselves

Re: Physical Activity and Mental Health

I lived in Kona for a couple of years @bipolarbunny  that’s as close as I got to doing the Ironman!!!

Re: Physical Activity and Mental Health

@Eve7 Did you ever go and watch the race? OMG I would LOVE to live in Kona! 🙂 xx

Re: Physical Activity and Mental Health

Yes, I watched it @bipolarbunny and I love Kona.

Re: Physical Activity and Mental Health

Sounds great @Determined we could start a thread like Group Virtual Ride and then tag in anyone interested and work out a time to get together for a virtual ride. That would be awesome. 🙂

Re: Physical Activity and Mental Health

Well done @Shaz51 for continuing the conversation. All of you are inspiring me!

@ethI have thought about tai chi for a while. Is it something you can do at home on your own, or do you need a teacher? I'm guessing it's both.

I do yoga, almost everyday. If anyone's interested The-great-yoga-adventure 

Hello @Poppyfriend543 gardening is a good one. I feel like I've been hibernating a bit but will get out into the garden this weekend. We have The-Community-Garden here!

Hope everyone has time for some activity today, even a little bit!

Hi @Eve7 @Determined @bipolarbunny ...

Re: Physical Activity and Mental Health

Hi @frog  sorry for the delay replying.  Yes you can do tai chi at home, tho' I prefer doing it in a group.  You can also learn it from youtube or check out the Australian Academy of Tai Chi and Qi Gong for Gary Khor's videos.  It's so good - I'm quite hooked on it.  Aside from fitness, strength, stamina and balance and mental health (finding that zen zone) it has all sorts of internal physiological benefits.  I can't recommend it enough!
