Stand up straight

I returned to Pilates this week and thought Gertrude was leading the class! Gertrude always remind me to stand up straight, don't slouch and be proud of your height. Well, the Pilate’s teacher would have loved to have Gertrude in her class. As I looked at some old photos I see Gertrude standing straight and tall. Posture is essential for good health. To take a deep breath was important to her as well. Maybe Gertrude knew Joseph Pilate. So many of his beliefs in health and wellbeing were so similar to my grandmothers.
