I'm going slowly but already feeling more relaxed.

Yep, he's brilliant, and Parkinson's won't take that away from him.

Just want to say I've been making an effort to practice yoga more. I am getting slightly more flexible but finding that each time, it calms my body faster. This is a wonderful thing. I wish it would stop the adrenaline/cortisol surges but at least it calms me. I'm noticing less muscle spasms as well as I've started to do yoga more. I use less magnesium now but still messing with that as I feel I still might need more than I am taking now but less than I was prior.
I haven't been paying much attention to the hot flushes. I will try to see if they are better when this cold I'm fighting passes.

Well done BB. I haven't done Yoga in years. Don't know if I could manage it now.  ;D

Keep meaning to do my Tai chi. Got as far as putting the DVD in the machine.

It's been a long while since I've done yoga. But my body has been a mess. I am far from the most flexible person (I might be able to touch my toes in a couple of weeks!  ;D) but it has gotten worse, especially with the muscle loss. I have found I am having less aches and pains and for the first time in a very long time, my hips were balance last night. I hope it helps with my mood as well.

I think I'll be giving yoga a try too. I used to do 'power yoga' using a DVD so I'll blow the dust off it and give it a whirl. It does become easier the more you do it and I've always had to remind myself that the reason it's called yoga practice is because that's what you're doing - practising it. So the more you do it, the better you'll get at it. I'll remind myself of this again when I'm crying my way through a chaturanga push-up!  ;) ;D
