I didn’t have a drink last night, not actually out of intention more I just didn’t feel like it when the time came. But I still woke up feeling a bit groggy and sniffly. Coffee, Sculpt and Qi Gong breathing exercises soon got rid of that feeling....

Very fortunate to have my favourite Sculpt exercise class being offered on Zoom by Lynsey. So, at 8.00 am I got my yoga mat out and did 45 minutes of movement and stretching. I felt fantastic afterwards, body alive and full of sensations....
