Tiffany! So great to read you again. I have a photo of the two of us after a class with Jackie Prete -- years and years ago! Remember it? If not, I'll try to send it.

Life does indeed get complicated. I knew about the first kid -- but wow, you did it again!

Sometimes yoga just have to wait.

I find the Benagh breath stuff is really helpful for my asthma -- it's mostly mild as well, except when I have a respiratory infection.

Hi Dabbadoey!

Sharon already knows I'm in her fan club but it's nice to see what great company we have there! Experiencing an asthma flare myself the last couple of days and agree with the Benagh recommendation.

And Tiffany!! Wow, great to see you again and congratulations on the bigger family. I'm terrible about keeping up with different online venues I'm afraid.

Jen, sorry about the asthma. Really cramps your style doesn't it! And Jen, you are so knowledgeable and have been so very helpful to me over the last many years. Thank you!

Has anyone tried the Suzanne Andrews Functional Fitness: COPD & Asthma? I'm getting it from the library, and it looks really interesting. The description:

COPD /Asthma Session 1:

This 22 minute COPD workout features an exercise routine focused on
increasing lung strength and capacity. While the need to learn breathing
techniques may be obvious, exercise is just as vital a component to
living; failure to regularly exercise leads to even weaker levels of lung
strength! Suzanne Andrews, Occupational Therapy Practitioner with the
popular Functional Fitness Public Television series, guides you with
breathing and body exercise routines that combine efficiency with
simplicity of execution, leading to improved breathing. Suzanne also
includes an additional 10 minute energy conservation techniques to improve
your ability to cook, dress, play with your pet and more to help you stay
active and get more enjoyment out of life. Light hand weights are used or
substitute with soup cans.

BONUS! COPD / Asthma Session 2:

By focusing on progression of strengthening your breathing muscles through
a combination of medically proven leg strengthening and walking moves
integrated with arm strengthening and breathing exercises, COPD 2 helps
restore and maintain your quality of life. Filmed on a beautiful Florida
riverfront, this 36 minute bonus workout features guided pulmonary therapy
breaks to check your oxygen level and heart rate. Light hand weights are
used.
