Hope last week’s goal went well and that you are water drinking machine by now! This week’s goal is to stretch. A regular stretching program can help lengthen your muscles and make daily living activities easier. Stretching does not have to involve a huge time commitment, but it can end up giving you huge results. There are simple stretches you can do while watching TV, on the phone, or getting ready for bed. Here are some of the benefits of stretching:

More energy (resulting from increased circulation)
Reduced muscle tension
Increased range of movement in the joints
Enhanced muscular coordination
Increased circulation of the blood to various parts of the body
