Gratitude changes the mind.
When we are able to harness this power, we become an unstoppable force đȘđ»
đ„° I am thankful for my insanely supportive, brilliant husband and for the pitter patter of little feet everyday đ„°
What is your gratitude for today?
Need a custom orthosis (splint) post surgery - at your work space, at your convenience? Yep, I can do that!
Keep everyday an Independence day - independence while aging, that is!
Daily squats will keep your muscles strong while aiding in joint mobility.
Squat strength assists in walking, using steps, playing with kids/grands, being able to sit then rise from your seat, and most importantly (at least for me as I age) - to be able to get myself on and off the toilet without assistance!
Start with 10 a day! Do the 100 squat challenge! Whatever you choose, choose promoting independence!

Pro Tip: My personal fav, and always in my freezer - the No Fail Ice Bag!
Costing cents to make and ready to use 12-24 hours.
What you will need:
2 gallon size freezer bags
1 cup rubbing alcohol
3 cups tap water
Directions:
Combine water and rubbing alcohol into freezer bag, seal. Place sealed mixture into second freezer bag (just in case if holes), seal. For optimal freeze time, lie flat on cookie sheet and place in freezer.
Thatâs. It. ... Boom! The frozen bag is pliable and gets colder as it warms.
**to ensure safety NEVER place ice/ice bags of any kind directly onto skin. Always use a thin towel or sheet for protection of the skin**
Use bag for 10-20 minutes then place back in freezer.
