If lifting the left leg off the ground is too intense, keep the foot planted and gently press the right knee forward. *Repeat on opposite side Now these are just a few of a plethora of stretches you can do for your body, but they are my favorites. I recommend performing each stretch for a total of 2 minutes if you can. Be kind to yourself and take breaks if needed. Be sure to focus on solid, deep breaths as you perform these to send oxygen to your brain and muscles. The deeper you breathe, the deeper the release will be in each position. So often we hold stress and tension in our bodies without even realizing it. Try out one, a few or all of these stretches and see how you feel after. Do you feel a bit lighter? A bit looser? Do you have better mobility throughout your body? I promise taking a little bit of time each day (all you need is about 30 minutes, if that!) to stretch will bring about a world of change to your physical, mental and emotional health. You will release endorphins, relieve stress and be able to go about your day with less tension in your body. Now…who’s ready to stretch it out?

While most City employees have agreed to waive their salary increases including fire and police officers, how about the members of the City Council and Mayor’s office waive some of their salary? There is that old saying. lead by example. Time for the members of the Council and Mayor to try leading by example. The new way to complete crime reports in the City of L.A. Serve yourself. Due to reduced resources in funding from City Hall, the LAPD has changed the policy on responding to calls for service. The new way to service the people of L.A. is for them to serve themselves. The new program is called “The Community Online Reporting System.” Drivers and passengers who suffer minor injuries during a traffic accident, now must complete a report online rather than calling the police. All minor traffic accidents, hit and runs, thefts, vandalism, lost property, and harassing phone calls will now be reported online. No response by the police. Chief Moore stated that the reports will be followed up as necessary. In other words, your report will be a nice piece of paper for your insurance company. You can find the reporting program at lapdonline.org. I suggest you keep this information handy to report the next time you are the victim of a crime in Los Angeles. More serious crimes like , rape, robbery, burglary and arson will require an investigation at the scene of the crime by police personnel and when appropriate an investigation by detectives. You are encouraged to call 911 on those more serious calls for service. Recall Governor Gavin Newsom and DA George Gascon Many of us are fed up with the lack of leadership by Governor Newsom and the policies established by newly elected L.A. County District Attorney George Gascon. There are petitions circulating to recall these elected officials that have lost the trust of the public they were elected to serve. I encourage you to obtain and sign the petitions to recall Governor Newsom and D.A. Gascon. Their removal from public office will help make California and Los Angeles a better and safer place for all people. Petitions can be obtained online to recall Governor Newsom at “RecallGavin2020.com.” Information on the recall District Attorney George Gascon is available at www. Recallgeorgegascon.com.
