Yoga online

A few years ago I followed a course of yoga.
But even though I liked it very much, I couldn't continue the lessons, because they were at a time I was needed elsewhere.

Todat I had some time between two children and decided to look around online a bit.
There I found betwene the missed TV programs a series of yoga lessons.

They were good.
Even though I was not physically participating, I relaxed and when it was time to go back to work I felt refreshed.

Might be a good idea for you too?

Ballet or fitness

I remember the moment when my balletteacher asked another pupil if she was fitnessing.
The girl was amazed that the teacher knew, but when she asked "why" the teacher said: it's your shoulders.

I've never had much interest in fitness, even though we have a large fitness studio/hall at uni.
The pain in my shoulders and neck after working out made me go to the doc who told me to stay away, unless it was done under individual guidance by a physiotherapist.
My shoulders are a bit bended and fitness puts too much of a burden on it, whereas ballet and the attention for a straight back and lift overs of the head, firms the muscles I need more.

I don't often go to ballet anymore.
During the past year and this year I had so much to do and so little money to spend.

Do you like those broad male shoulders for a woman?
I don't.

Q fever

It seems like people are tired of bad news.

Reports about Q fever in this country reveal that already years ago it was known that Q fever was widely spread.
For all sorts of reasons the population wasn't warned, so for over three years people were exposed to the dangers. Like pregnant women.

The last report makes clear how many mistakes were made and that the economical risks for farms were put above health risks.

Yet there are only a handful of people who stand up and speak against it.

That worries me.
