Joyful Hands

 

When we think of fitness, the hands tend to be off our radar, and it is time to focus on them and make them happy. Use these fitness tools to help your hands be healthy and come alive.

Week 1

 

Find a hand stone, and keep it with you.

  1. Pick a time, usually before bed or waking.
  2. Crulse using hand stone.
  3. Do daily and take days off when needed.

Remember, rest is a form of giving your body what it needs.
