Two Lefts Can Make a Right I’ve been writing this Two Left Feet blog for a year now – 52 different DVDs reviewed for uncoordinated exercisers like me. Now I feel like it’s time to […]
Relaxation
Momentary Meditations
Got a Moment? Sometimes you really need to relax, and at those times, you usually don’t have time to relax. Cue intro to this week’s DVD, Momentary Meditations. I’ve tried a lot of meditation CDs […]
