Pilates is a method of conditioning the body. It strengthens and tones muscles, improves flexibility and posture, and develops coordination and balance.
Everything I learned about taking care of myself,
I learned from my cat.
Stretch when you first wake up (Especially your neck, back, and
shoulders).
After you have been sitting down for a while, get up and move. This
keeps you more alert.
Keep your spine flexible ( It helps you to land on you feet when you are
in trouble).
Take time to relax a little during the day, especially if you plan on
staying up late at night.
Eat small meals during the day and drink plenty of water.
If people around you are stressed, remain calm. It's not your
problem.
If you feel stressed, find someone to give you a great neck and back
massage and make sure they don't forget your neck and ears.
If you feel the urge to climb the drapes or claw the furniture break the
tension by chasing your tail, or going for a walk (exercise makes you feel
better).
Remain cool and in control, it drives everyone else crazy!
