2. Bike Riding. Oh the joy of pedaling out in my rural town. I almost feel giddy riding my bike. It's a simple cruiser, but it gives me quite a work-out. Yep, I even have a bell and a basket.
3. Yoga. This simple stretching, breathing, and meditating form of exercise has helped me through many phases of my life. I've developed a bond with my yoga mat. And I'm not in competition to create the perfect pose either. I tossed out the saying, "No pain, no gain," decades ago.
4. My Garden. Trust me, tending to my herb, vegetable, and rose garden is a great form of healthy exercise. I've been known to spend several hours, especially in spring. Bend, stretch, breathe...
