PEOPLE ARE ILLOGICAL, UNREASONABLE, AND SELF-CENTERED, BUT LOVE THEM ANYWAY

The psychologist Abraham Maslow discovered that that human beings need love just as much as they need proteins, vitamins, and minerals.

Back From Atlanta

I had a wonderful time visiting my friends in Cumming, GA, Danny and Sheila Wheeler. Danny was a talented guitar player that played acoustical guitar with my former husband, George Betz. They met in the Air Force in Panama City. They were at Tyndall Air Force Base together. They bought electronic equipment like Electric guitars, Sound systems, synthesizers and started practicing to play out at clubs with their band. Danny and Geeorge had very melodic voices, pleasing to the ears.
I went to visit this couple again after 30 years. They are so much fun and very kind, nice people. They bought me some jewelry to remember Atlanta with.

Deep Breathing

I was doing my Tai Chi tape today called Tai Chi For Seniors by Mark Johnson, Tai Chi Instructor and Chi Gung Healer, and he was talking about the importance of deep breathing. It is very beneficial to soothe our nervous systems. It calms our emotions and makes us feel more relaxed. Seniors in general have stopped doing deep breathing, but they should try to do deep, diaphragmatical breathing all the time, every day. It replenishes our blood supply with oxygen and feeds our body. Shallow breathing does not help us like deep breathing, but I wonder why most people do not do it. For your health and well-being . All the Tai Chi moves should be done with deep, diaphragmical breathing.

Zumba is Spanish Dance That is So Much Fun

I tried out just what Zumba class . I was not at all sure what the Zumba class was, but it turned out to be Spanish dancing. It is pretty fast pace of exercise. I did the Rumba, Cha Cha, Salza, etc. The teacher called out all the moves like V step, march, swing your arms, go toward the right corner, go go forward, go backwards, turn to the right, go to the left. I could follow along, but it was my basic fitness teacher was a good dancer and especially knew Latin dances as she had practiced with her Colombian Mother-in-law. I was not able to attend yoga class today, but the class I happened on instead was wonderful for weight loss and learning a fun activity. I was trying to olse some weight on my body since celebrating Easter, my boyfriend's birthday. We bought a grill so we had grilling parties. The grill cooks large amounts of food and we stuff ourselves. Stuffing the belly is what makes a person gain weight. Traveling to visit a person and do Easter dinner was causing the friends to treat them with gifts of their homemade Chocolate Cookie. Friends feel compelled to treat you with their special fattening dessert. Desserts loaded with plus stuffing your belly, causes weight gain. Then become a regular of Zumba Class!
