Good Evening!
...I bought two little yoga balls to help me with my stretching routine - my right hip has been locking up again (that IT-Band thingy). I did my second round of "gravity-aided stretching", and.. WOW!!! What I'm most amazed at is the amount of tension and tightness in my shoulders and upper arms. I mean, I've always held some tension there, but after doing some relaxation exercises and realizing that I was having difficulty just letting my arms lie flat on the ground... Whew!
-And my right hip is feeling a lot better already too.
