"I am a veteran, Portsmouth VA- Norfolk Naval Shipyard. I have mild to moderate muscle and joint pain, plus depression. I feel so good right now, but I also feel joyous and calm. I look forward to continuing the exercises, the continued learning and experiences, and also the sharing in such a gracious and respectful community. What a lovely way to live life!" – Shelley
