But I have enjoyed PT in a highly heated pool - great for arthritic aches and pains. I used to love hiking in the Sierra, but not for the exercise - for the bird watching opportunities.

Like running up a flight of stairs and not getting winded. The actual doing of the exercise is just meh, though I have actually gotten that 'runner's high" they talk about. Twice. In 48 years. Big woop. It was cool, but not THAT cool. Must be doing something wrong.<br /><br />I love Moth, and TED talks. I need to remember to look them up and listen more often.

And I've listened to and enjoyed The Moth too.

I started with 15 minutes a day and it was pure torture. For 4 months. After that I really started to feel the benefits. It's been 8 years and now I do yoga and ride a recumbent bike (and read blogs) for an hour every morning. If I have to skip a day I feel it. It was directly responsible for me being able to cut down on the asthma and allergy medicine I take. Keep at it. I promise that it gets better! It will first become routine and eventually necessary.

I'm not vain enough anymore to care about my weight. If you run out of stories on the Moth, you can try Freakonomics and Radio Lab, my two favorites. I have become a podcast junkie. I listen to them at night when there is nothing on TV, which is almost every night.Janethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08532721287686146185noreply@blogger.com
