I am in Atlanta (actually a suburb south of the city -- Peachtree City area). Anyhow, I was officially diagnosed back in December, although I have been challenged with this for about 3 years. I am currently on MTX, Lunesta (LOVE IT FOR SLEEP!), Davocet as needed, Aleve, Prevacid, Zocor, Estradial, Lisonopril ... and some other stuff. It's like a pharmacy here! Anyhow, I am working hard to stay active. I used to swim a lot and the water is wonderful. So kind to the body! I am just about to get back into that again with the warmer weather. I joined Curves because I figured 30 minutes is doable and I just use the machines that are working best for me that particular day and then skip the others. I do a yoga DVD called Yoga for Inflexible People and it is great (see _www.bodywisdommedia.com_ (http://www.bodywisdommedia.com) ). I feel like I need to walk a bit in the evenings but am usually too pooped by then to bother with it. I would like to start taking a little walk at least around the loop in my neighborhood. Like you, I recognize the need to keep moving! I also like to use meditations, visualizations, prayer, relaxation, journaling and quiet time. I find that turning OFF the TV and tuning IN to my body is just about the best thing I can do for my overall well-being given the circumstances I have. I do work, but I am incredibly blessed (like over the top blessed, I know!) to be self-employed and work from my home. It's a real luxury, I know, and I am really grateful. I work as a professional life and biz coach so most of my work is via phone and email (except when I work with groups in businesses or if I were to give a speech or something) Fortunately, today's technology allows us many more options from home. Tell me more about you! I know each of us has our own unique path to healing ... Love and Prayers, Beth ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* RA, or any other health challenge, is NOT a show-stopper!!! ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
