At one time, I won a three months spa membership as a door prize and started to take part in aerobics classes on a regular basis. I was not able to keep up with the rest of the class but participated to the best of my ability. To my amazement, the sustained, regular exercise heightened my well-being more than anything else I had tried. Gradually I came to experience the occasional feeling of euphoria at the end of a class. Having grown up in Europe, my family spent every holiday on bicycles during my teenage years.
Cycling evokes fond memories.
I soon found that for me a stationary bicycle produced the euphoric feeling more readily than aerobics and it was less stressful on my injuries. That exercise also allowed me to work out by myself at times when the contact with other people was just too strenuous. Since I have learned to communicate with people again, I have gone back to my favorite aerobic exercise, aquacising. It is the easiest on me, because it is the least aggravating on the physical injuries.
