Bring on the squats and deadlifts. Especially for us ladies.

Building power at the base of your body can spark benefits higher up.

Get up and move!

And other good advice.

What you *don’t* do matters for your thinker too.

This is my new thing.

And our brains love new things.

I brush my teeth in tree pose. AND, I switch up my hands.

So one minute on one foot, brushing with one hand, and one minute on the other, brushing with the other hand.

And here's what's happening:

1) My brain has to focus, especially with that opposite hand! I'm building new neural pathways by changing my routine.

2) I'm working on balance which is also increasing my concentration.

3) Bonus, I'm getting some hip opening, my bones like the weight, and I'm strengthening my feet, ankles, and legs.

You can try it with your foot at your ankle and your toe on the ground. Or try one part (legs/hands) a few nights and then put them together.

Try it! And let me know how it goes.
