Yoga

Just a quick update for diabetes Blog Week, day 5’s topic:

Day 5- Let's get moving. Exercise . . . love it or hate it? Do you have a regular exercise routine? Or do you have trouble finding your exercise motivation? How do you manage your insulin and food to avoid bottoming out during your workout? Today is the day to tell us all about your exercise habits, or lack thereof.

Arden is of course only five years old but we wanted her to have an exercise regiment that she could carry with her throughout her life.  After much thought we decided to try yoga.  Yoga is fantastic for Arden, it is a high-return, low impact exercise that has very little impact on her BGs.  Yoga keeps her strong, flexible and moving.  I hope she does it for the rest of her life.

I think I may sign Arden and I up for the parent/child class when the next classes begin... I could definitely use it!
