Hi There On this lovely Tuesday I want to talk about Balance. Here I believe we have no choice.Being balanced is what we strive for in everything. It is a way of life. A way you carry yourself. I believe this balance is the essence of perfection. I also believe in your struggle or strive to maintain balance we learn and become our best. We may not ever reach it in our humanity, but the journey towards it. Is absolutely amazing and an experience so personal; so gratifying and to be honest our life!! For this CHOOSEday there is no CHOICE. Also strive for Balance in every aspect of our being... Our Human beng!! What do you think? Is there a choice?  Keep Moving until  next  tim e 👋

Hi There This week's muscle is the Buccinator... It makes me think of the Terminator.... Although it is not pronounced like it.  But none the less sounds awesome!! It also helps me remember where the Buccinator is...Because the terminator loses his face. It is in the face where our cheeks are. In Fact it is the muscle underneath our cheeks! It helps us chew and keeps the cheeks in place. The Buccinator is also one of the  the muscle we learn to control at a very young age, because of it's function. It helps us chew and Suck when we are infants. this muscle helps us whissle as well Buccinator . Follow the link to see video of the buccinator Common Injuries to this muscle is usually dentures that are not fitted correctly or direct trauma to the cheek. I'll be back... Keep Moving!!

Hi There COOSEday! On this Tuesday I want to talk about Easy and Convenient. These are abstract concepts and can be seen and lived differently by all of us. What seems "easy" to me may not be "easy" for another. But I believe that both mean different things.

"an easy way of retrieving information" synonyms: uncomplicated , not difficult,  undemanding , unexacting,  unchallenging ,  effortless ,  painless ,  trouble-free ,  facile ,  simple ,  straightforward ,  elementary ,  idiot-proof ,  plain sailing ;  More 2. (of a period of time or way of life) free from worries or problems. "promises of an easy life in the New World" synonyms: calm ,  tranquil ,  serene ,  quiet ,

Hi There It is Chooseday Tuesday time!This time it is about choosing You or Others... For You or For Others!  Again we are focusing on abstract concepts. Which I love!!! I love it because it makes you think why you believe or behave the way you do!. Please feel free to also add to discussion by commenting below!  Firstly we need to decide what each of these concepts mean. What does for me mean? When do you do things for yourself purely for you. For me? What does for others mean? When and what do you do others? What makes you feel good? Doing things for others or yourself?  If you asked me this question a few months ago my answer would have been totally different. I would have said that you should do everything for others! They make you feel good. They validate you. Now I want to slap myself that I ever thought that!! I validate myself, I make myself feel good!! Not others!.  I believe that again do BOTH!!! Do things for yourself to grow and be healthy. If it needs be put yourself
