    Just like any other part of your body, your eyes need exercise.

    Ever hear the term ~ repetitive motion syndrome? We usually equate that with wrist and/or elbow problems. With spending so much time on computers, reading and, for many, watching t.v., our eyes don't get the exercise they used to unless we do something to get them moving outside the little box we've put them in.

    There are so many factors when it comes to aging well.

    The basics of course, food, rest and movement.

    Today, I'll be talking about movement.

    Playing off of my "use to" (I've been corrected that it should be "used to" )~ blog, it's really been made clear to me that there is a LOT to consider if one wants to age gracefully.

    Good morning Sunshine!
