 "As a doctor, I am continuously concerned about the health of others.  Jackie helps me pay attention to my own health.  I recommend that for EVERYONE."  ~ 

Dr. Michelle Montpetit Lemp


I love that local Cardiologist Dr. Michelle Montpetit Lemp practices what she preaches. She's trained with me weekly since May of 2013, participated in my boot camps and Power Yoga classes, and will be participating with her daughter in my Two Hearts Yoga Workshop on Feb. 21st.  Do you have a special girl in your life you want to inspire to live a heart healthy life  mind, body and spirit?  Follow this good doctor's lead and bring her to the Two Hearts Workshop too! Just a few spots left! See the article below "Yoga this Week" section for details and thanks doc for the testimonial~Jackie
JKFY -- Yoga This Week !
Please Note: No Friday Yoga Sculpt this week only.

This week's classes feature a gratitude practice to warm your heart and postures to help necks, shoulders and backs.  If you spend a lot of time sitting at a desk or behind the wheel of a car, the trapezius muscle can shorten and tighten, which affects mobility in your neck.  Yoga poses like this series will be employed.  Why?

This Week's Main Article

Stiff Neck, Shoulder or Back? - if you drive or sit a lot it could originate in your trapezius - here's help! 

Plus -- A Body Weight Exercise You Should Be Doing for A Balanced Physique and to Strengthen Those Traps.

The trapezius muscle covers a large area of the back, neck and shoulders. Its main function is to move the scapula, or shoulder blade, and help support your arms. If you spend a lot of time sitting at a desk or behind the wheel of a car, the trapezius muscle can shorten and tighten, which affects mobility in your neck. Stretching this large muscle keeps it loose and pliable, relieves tension and preserves or restores neck and shoulder health. 

Did you know...there's an important body weight exercise for helping strengthen your traps and build a balanced physique. This is important not just for how you look, but for your overall strength and injury prevention...

and get helpful stretches and strengthening exercises like this one!  Learn them firsthand see Yoga this Week, left!
