Fantastic Lealee.....so glad to help. Now, I am actually going to do that myself right now as today has been a long, busy workday and I'm 'feeling it' a bit. Think I'll do my half hour cd instead of...
Sorry Sherrine...I didn't realize that. I am not connected with the Company at all, I had purchased the CD's a few years ago at a store in Toronto and they help me so much so just sharing but I...
Hi Jewelrylady. I remember being where you are with my post polio syndrome (13 yrs ago). It was aweful so my heart goes out to you. I crashed so often, cried so often and sometimes wanted to give up....
Lealee......I get that too with my post polio syndrome. It's hard to know when you have done too much. Sometimes, I walk my dog too far or don't rest my mind (meditate) or play too hard with the...
