new exercises

Hi,
I'm battling a bad case of bronchitis, and losing. The cracked bone in my foot is better but still not great and it's been like this for 5 months. I'm falling apart quickly, age isn't helping. I can't swim with this cough or do any standing with this foot problem... but I have found a solution to my lack of exercise.

Yoga Housework.

I need to trademark this and get the patten going so that I can make millions of dollars and do infomercials at 3am. My new series of moves lets me get some exercise and Zen out while I clean. I use my "Ugai" breath to  calm before tackling the oven. Down Dog position is perfect for wiping the baseboards. Sun salutation help me reach new heights to sweep cobwebs away. Leg lunges are fabulous for getting under the tables and couches. Looking for dust bunnies has never felt so grande.

For all the hundreds of Yoga poses there are, I can find uses for them while I clean & scrub. At the end of a couple of hours I have bent, stretches, rolled, swept, wiped and worked every muscle in my body... plus I found 35 cents in the couch. I am a tower of power in my Yoga house cleaning practice. I haven't quite found a use for head stands yet but I'm working on it.

I'll need a name & a slogan for this new fitness craze, too bad they've already cornered "Zumba". I'm taking a poll on what you think the best. All suggestions are welcome. I'm thinking something along the lines of  "Yocle"... sounds jolly, fun to do and easy to pronounce. "Yocle your way to a clean body, mind and home". Are you still with me here?

Maybe this has all been brought on by all the drugs I am on to get rid of this bronchitis or the fact that I have been house-bound for over a week... I'm getting a little stir-crazy here and running out of things to clean. No, I won't come over to your place to practice my "Yocle" on your floors.... but I'm happy to offer lessons for those willing to join the craze.
