Both sides are better than one

This one’s great.  I have been working with it conscientiously for the last month and it has been fantastic!  Do things with both sides of your body.  That’s it, just be aware when you are doing something with one side of your body and then try doing it with the other side as well.  I first started doing this while picking up horse manure.  But then I started swapping between arms when I vacuumed, brushed my teeth, stirred cake mix in a bowl and carried my little girl on my right hip as well as my left.  One of my physical struggles has been an imbalance in my waist and hip muscles, most of us have this, one side stronger than the other, and it used to cause me a lot of discomfort.  Pilates has changed that, but what I found was that even when I wasn’t able to work regularly, I have been able to maintain the strength of muscle balance in my waist just by doing things with both sides of my body!  Give it a go, you will probably feel awkward and a little silly in the beginning but your body will love you for it.
