AARP Video: Real Men Do Yoga!

This video is very inspiring to me, as I am climbing over all sorts of temporary obstacles in life right now. Not enough money, certainly there was a huge lack of friendships in my life for a long time. What I have done is hand-build a history of personal accomplishment; grafted a new limb on the family tree, the results of which are now embodied in my young adult daughter.

As I return to a life of my own in the world, I have missed those parts of me that have had to go on hold for years, while I did my own solo task of leaving dysfunctional unconsciousness, rooted in mental illness in a parent & the denial that continues to sustain avoiding change-for-the-better_ behind.

Right now, I am fragile and strong. Out of shape, yet with a lifetime of choices in my own foundation. Tonight, I watched this video on the AARP website. I am turning 55 soon. It really inspires me to get back out there in my own health commitments again and enjoy this life I am living right now!

The video code is not available to embed and thus spread around, but the links are in here, so you can click on them and watch it for yourself. Enjoy and good health!
