Don't grieve alone; 14,000 members and growing
I went to a spin class last night...my first time. I thought it would help to get some of this inner "whatever it is" out of me. It was a spiritually based spin class and really it helped alot. I found myself enjoying something for the first time since losing my husband and doing something healthy at the same time. I think my husband would be smiling about this. I somehow felt close to him while I was doing it. I will definately go back. I can highly recommend somehow getting some exercise in for those of us who have lost our loved ones. It works on that "physical" hurting that is so fustrating.

i mite try it sum time it sonds ok
Spin class is where you go to a gym or facility that teaches it (you can google it in your area) and you work out on stationary bikes with music and video to similuate different scenes and you feel like you are riding all over the world. It is challenging and fun. I go to a christian based one that really is nurturing and that is what I need right now. It is called N-Motion. I really like it. going this morning!
wot is spin class iv never hurd of it till now
Hi Debra,
I am dealing with a loss too, the love of my life. I'm going through this slow. Snoopy is an important part of it to me too! I got my babe a plush Snoopy for X-mas almost a year before she passed. She said it was the best gift she had ever recieved. She renamed to 'Noopy and found a little one called Lil' Noop. We were a little silly together. But now I have them as she passed and it helps me because her personality was like Snoopy. Most loving, patient, and outstanding! They still smell like her and that helps me.
I too find exercise helpful. I was a cyclist (was a pro racer that got into a life changing accident) but that's another story.
Keep on! I am thankful for this outlet.
what is spin class?
I agree. Speed walking it out was the only way I could get a handle on the panic attacks that started after my husband died. My neighbors got used to seeing me at all hours walking like crazy up and down our long street. With tears pouring, words and thoughts pounding in my head I would just walk and walk and walk until a certain calmness would come and allow me to come back inside. Im glad you found an outlet that works for you too.
