Hi saranda.

I was thinking the same. My doctor said minimal symptoms, so i thought maybe yoga would be enough (bc work, kids and everything) Now im not so sure. Any thoughts anyone?

Hi, I try to do something everyday, yoga, Pilates, walking and I run once a week. Albeit it I run pretty slow and don’t go too far but I have found exercise is the best medicine. I can be completely exhausted on the way to workout and feel completely energized afterwards. I think yoga is great for us with lupus to keep our joints flexible. I also force myself to take a walk on my lunch breaks.
