I liked the title of this weeks workout – I am not the kind of person who will say no to horizontally positioned activities (put that dirty mind away, I was thinking sleeping, reading or watching the telly).  I do find a good yoga breath very cleansing and uplifting but it is another one of those things that I forget to do, as life rushes by in it’s usual whirlwind fashion.

This week Wendy taught me a yoga breath to perform a few times a week that sot only makes you feel as though your body is full of fresh mountain air, but also has the added benefit of toning the pelvic floor area.It really is a lovely thing to do.

I’ve been a reasonably bad girl this week with exercise and food so it comes as no surprise that I’ve not lost any weight but I am still very happy to have a whole load of old jeans that ft me – I’ve still no worn every pair yet. Heaven!  I’ve also discovered that dancing to The Swinging Blue Jeans live in Switzerland album is a cracking alternative to skipping and jogging on the spot and can actually be better, because I lose track of time and go over the one/two minutes that I am supposed to be sweating it for.  Lovely.  Cub is not at all embarassed to have an un-coordinated Mummy lurching all over the living room to a swinging sixties vibe – he looks on with and expression of mild bemusement and wiggles his nappy-clad bum in support.
