Awareness is Key By Iva Pearlstein

“By learning to become aware of our body, we are able to take control over it,” informs Jamie Brantley, Yoga Instructor for Fort Knox FMWR. Brantley has been with the Army since 1986, and she has been continuously involved in helping Soldiers and their Family members to heal invisible war wounds through mind-body therapeutic practices. “Yoga is an outstanding method – by definition it means union between mind, body, and spirit,” explains Brantley. Classical Yoga techniques date back more than 5,000 years. A quest for expanded personal freedom, health and longer life along with greater self-understanding, inspired this system of physical and mental exercise. Bringing together the body and mind into a single harmonious experience was the goal. Yoga comprises exercise, breathing and meditation, which help heal the body as well as relieve stress. Not widely practiced in the USA until the 1960s, it became popular in conjunction with the cultural revolution which occurred in that decade. Acceptance and respect for Yoga grew as it was recognized for its stress management and health benefits. Nowadays physicians commonly recommend it to patients with back pain, arthritis, depression and other chronic conditions. Although Yoga can lift your spirits and make you feel better, it is not a religion. There is no external being to worship. The core of Yoga’s philosophy is that the individual is in control. New to the 2015 lineup at Gammon Physical Fitness Center is Jennifer Warnock, who discovered Yoga thanks to a recommendation from a physical therapist. With her Yin Yoga Certification which she refers to as the “gold standard for certification,” she is teaching Sun Salutation Flow Yoga. Sun salutations are a series of Yoga poses linked by breath. Flow refers to the various postures which are coordinated with breathing – quickly flowing from one position to the next. Warnock prefers to do the movements barefoot, explaining, “Barefoot allows for better balance.” She is very enthusiastic about being able to instruct because, “Yoga is awesome!”

A trained instructor can observe and fix potentially damaging incorrect positions. Furthermore, practicing Yoga in a class or group environment allows for a subtle sharing of energy that enhances the training. Brantley believes Yoga can improve quality of life for almost anyone, and always ends her classes with honor!

Further information and resources: Jamie Brantley – Brantley.MindBodyFitness@aol.com Gammon Physical Fitness Center 850 Radio Street, Fort Knox, Main Number: (502) 624-4033 Course Iinformation: (502) 624-8180 http://www.yogabasics.com/learn/history-of-yoga http://www.americanyogaassociation.org/general.html

“The Military uses Yoga as a way to heal,” relates Brantley. Its health benefits are confirmed by the growing recognition and support from medical professionals. Both the Warrior Transition Battalion (WTB) and the Behavioral Health Clinic on Fort Knox include Yoga in their programs. Movements have even been incorporated into Army Physical Fitness Training (APFT). There are basic physical lessons that allow participants to strengthen their backs and lengthen hamstrings that both heal and prevent injuries. Brantley feels it is preferable for participants not to do the poses on their own or with a video.

Fort Knox Race Series A Fun Way to Run By Iva Pearlstein

2015 Fort Knox Race Series

Fort Knox Family and MWR works daily to Date deliver programs that help enable readiness and resiliency to the Total Military Family. March 6th One of the ways MWR does this is in the fitness category with the race series. In April 25th 2011, the race series was created to provide June 6th a series of walk/run events of different August 22nd lengths, themes, and difficulty levels. The October 30th Sports and Fitness Director, Austin Howell, December 5th said that “since 2011, the series has seen event times and dates are subject to change gradual growth, even with the change in demographic.” When asked about the interest level Howell states “there is a large demand for running events both on and off installations.” Howell noted that with the increased use of social media, runners are able to show off their times and distances easily and receive instant gratification. To help with that, most events are chip timed and results are posted online within hours after each event.

Event Time

Location/Start Time

GLO Run 5K TBA Army Ten Miler Qualifier Reverse Sprint Triathlon Zombie Trail Run Jingle Bell Jog

Landing Zone/ 7:00 PM TBA Gammon PFC/ 7:00 AM Anderson Aquatics/ 8:00 AM Eastman Park/ 6:00 PM Otto PFC/ 9:00 AM

Running, however, is not just for showing off. It not only aids in weight loss and getting into shape, but it also has several other benefits. Running helps to relieve stress, boost confidence and reduce depression. Running helps strengthen joints and is great for the heart. It can also be made into a social event. As spring approaches, going for a run outside may be tempting, and this race series offers the perfect excuse to do just that.

Families, children, and moms with strollers all are welcome to participate. These races are Family friendly and are surrounded by a fun, exciting atmosphere. The routes are safe, complete with road blocks and police escorts, and the entry fees are very affordable. Race times are always posted to allow runners to track their progress and improvements. Music is played throughout the day and upon completion of the race, snacks are provided to reenergize and refuel the body. T-shirts are also given to all runners. So, no matter your skill level, we would love to see you at one of the races listed below for a day of fun, socializing, and a little exercise!

Avid runners, occasional runners, and novice runners alike; the Fort Knox race series has a race for you. In this series, the Army Ten Mile Qualifier is the only one that is limited to Active Duty Soldiers, and the Reverse Sprint Triathlon is the only one with an age limit of 12 and older. The remaining races in the series are open to anyone who is interested. Soldiers,

Goodbye Winter! Hello Spring! By Jenn Dent

Spring is an incredible time of year. It’s a time of rebirth and renewal. Flowers are beginning to bloom and you can feel the warm weather settling in. What better way to dust off the winter blues and freshen up your surroundings than with a bit of spring cleaning. Most people cringe at the thought of this daunting task, but with these easy tricks and tips you can tackle it with ease.

• Make a list! – Spring cleaning can get a little overwhelming. Making a to-do list helps keep you organized and on track. Plus, there’s no better feeling of accomplishment than crossing those tasks off your list. • Prepare yourself – Not only do you have to get in the zone mentally, but you must also arm yourself with the proper tools of the trade. Make sure your arsenal is stocked, prepped and ready to go. There’s nothing worse than being knee deep in your cleaning cycle and realizing you’re out of cleaner or your mop is broken. (Moneysaving Tip: Go Green! A lot of surfaces can be thoroughly cleaned with white vinegar and/or baking soda.) • Take your time – Once your list is compiled you may feel like you’ll never get through it. Try the divide and conquer technique. Separating your list into controllable segments and tackling them over a period of time can help alleviate the stress and avoid burnout. • Recruit the troops – You might not have to go into battle alone. If there are other people living in your house, give them their own tasks off the list. Chances are you didn’t accumulate all that dust by yourself. • Declutter – Getting rid of some of that old junk can quickly clean up a space. If you haven’t used it in over a year, you probably don’t need it. Consider donating to a local charity or thrift store. Remember, one man’s trash is another man’s treasure. • Dust – Starting with a good dusting can make the deep cleaning part a lot easier. Don’t just dust the obvious areas. Dust accumulates everywhere. Ceiling fans, light fixtures, pictures, light bulbs, floor registers, behind appliances, on top of cabinets, behind and under furniture.

knoxmwr.com

• Wash walls, cabinets and baseboards – After dusting, it’s always good to clean these surface areas of your home. A clean sponge or cloth and a simple solution of warm water and dish soap will do a great job. Wiping down these areas will automatically make your home feel cleaner. • Deep clean carpet and rugs – There probably has been plenty of dirt and muck tracked onto your carpets and rugs over the last several months. You can remove that deeply penetrated muck by using a carpet cleaning machine. If you don’t own one, they are usually available to rent at your local discount store or home improvement center. • Wash windows – Using a squeegee is the best way to avoid streaks. Wipe your windows with a sponge and a solution of equal parts hot water and vinegar. Wet the squeegee and make vertical strokes from the top to the bottom of each window. Guaranteed for a streak free shine every time! • Swap out bedding/towels/linens/curtains – Changing out these fabrics after a long winter can really freshen up your space and make it feel new. Consider using bright colors to help transition from those winter blues. • Clean mattresses – A thorough vacuuming will help remove a lot of the ick that has accumulated on your mattress. You can also deodorize it by sprinkling baking soda over the entire surface. Wait approximately 2 hours then vacuum it off. This will leave your sleep area smelling fresh and clean. • Clean pet areas – Your 4-legged Family members bring a lot of joy into your life, but they can also bring a lot of dust and dirt into your home. These areas can be smelly and musty. Make sure you thoroughly clean and deodorize your furry friend’s favorite lounging places. They’ll appreciate it and so will you. • Clean doormats and entryways - Sweep them, beat them or wash them. Your doormat welcomes visitors into your home. Cleaning them will help cut down the dirt tracked into your house and makes your entryway more inviting. Sweeping your porches and walkways also improve your curb appeal.

If you are a resident on Fort Knox, the annual Spring Cleanup will be May 11-15, 2015. Knox Hills supports this initiative by providing free items such as lawn leaf bags to their residents to help clean up the post, and areas in their neighborhoods. For more information about where to pick up these items, please contact your respective community office: • Historic Community: (502) 799-6560 • North/South Dietz Community: (502) 799-6570 • Oak Park Community: (502) 799-6580

Please Take Care of Yourself, Society Depends on You! By CH (MAJ) Raymond Folsom When I think of dependency, I think of the body, specifically the blood. Our blood has this phenomenal symbiotic relationship with our body that requires (-/+) 1.2 gallons of blood to be pumped throughout the 60,000 miles of blood vessels to sustain life! The blood is responsible for transporting vital nutrients and removing the waste, 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Our body provides a source of wisdom and rich illustrations of how important balance and function is for a system. Paul of Tarsus wrote to the Church of Corinth, making mention of the body as a way to underscore the significance of working together benefits the whole. Each member (you and I) working together to support the whole (Family, community and country) is such a symbiotic relationship. The whole depends on its parts. The stronger the parts, the stronger the whole. In other words, the strength of our society always defaults to the individual. That is why we first must take care of yourself, because the health of society depends on us. What happens when a part of the whole stops working? Does it affect the whole? It most certainly does. I think the point can be made with a broken foot. If you were to break your foot, the rest of your body would automatically compensate. You would feel pain; you may limp, or may not move at all. Maybe you would move, with crutches, but your whole body will have to compensate for that one member not functioning as it was designed. Life goes on. The broken foot will only make things harder.

knoxmwr.com

The same can be said as true when we consider our society. Every member of our society has a part or role. When one member of our society is unable to fulfill their part, others will make up the difference. The whole will always have to compensate for the one, or two…in an effort to keep operating. Things will get done but it is much, much harder to function “normally” when a member is unhealthy or dysfunctional. If the problem is not addressed, it will soon wear out the other healthy members, further degrading the quality due to an already strained system. That is why it’s so important for you and me, to take care of ourselves; society depends on it. It means taking care of every aspect of our life. The quality of life depends on your ability to master the life skills like health, our spiritual well-being, our interpersonal skills and our social skills. We are all connected and built upon one another because we are social beings. Our spiritual health is directly connected to our understanding and commitment to an ethical lifestyle that socially enhances our Family, the local community and our culture as a whole. Therefore, our society depends on each of us to be intentional in self care and the support of one another through social, Family, emotional and spiritual opportunities.

Be Water Smart This World Water Day … and Everyday By Vanessa Shoenfelt

Water, water everywhere, but not a drop to drink. That age old adage is one that seems to get more important as time goes on. Most people don’t give a second thought to the water coming out of their tap and down their drain. We turn on the faucet and expect water to come out instantly. It’s one of the cheapest utilities for most people. It is expected immediately and to be of good quality. It is striking to think that we don’t give much thought to one of the world’s most precious and irreplaceable resources. What if you couldn’t use your tap for 24 hours? You’d probably appreciate the convenience and worth of it a little more, maybe even be more conscious of it - when you do have access to it. That is the goal of World Water Day, a day of observation established by the United Nations General Assembly more than 20 years ago. According to UN Water, it is “a means of focusing attention on the importance of freshwater and advocating for the sustainable management of freshwater resources.” Each year there is a theme/focus for World Water Day; this year the theme is “Water and Sustainable Development” in hopes to highlight water's role in the sustainable development agenda. We are living in a world that is constantly and rapidly changing, whether it is purposefully or in ways that are unpredictable and out of our control. According to UN Water, when our water is managed efficiently it “plays a vital role in strengthening the resilience of social, economic and environmental systems” in our ever-changing world. We can each do our part in efficient water management to better our current and future resources. Here are some facts to keep in mind, and tips to help conserve and preserve our freshwater resources: • More than 96 percent of the Earth’s water is held in the ocean, leaving just over 2 percent being freshwater. Of this small percentage, more than 2/3 is found in glaciers and icecaps and almost 1/3 in groundwater. This translates to just 1.2 percent of freshwater being surface water, which serves most of life’s needs. (USGS) • Demand for water will increase by 55 percent by 2050. (UN Water) • Agriculture accounts for 70 percent of water withdrawals worldwide. By 2050, there will be a need for a 60 percent increase in food production globally, and 100 percent more in developing countries. (UN Water) • 90 percent of all power production is water intensive. (UN Water) - This is important because it’s not just about turning off the tap; it’s also about

• •

• •

turning off the lights and unplugging things that aren’t in use. A Family of four uses approximately 400 gallons of water every day. (EPA) Turn off the tap! Turning off the water while you brush your teeth in the morning and evening can save up to 8 gallons a day, or 200 gallons a month. This goes for dishwashing, too! (EPA) Save time and water by showering, instead of bathing. A shower uses about 10-25 gallons and a bath takes up to 70 gallons. (EPA) Keep an eye out for leaks and fix them fast. You can easily test for a leak by placing a drop of food coloring into the tank of the toilet. If the color shows up in the bowl without flushing, you have a leak. Toilet leaks can waste about 200 gallons of water a day. (EPA) Instead of running your water to get a glass of cold water, keep a pitcher of water in your fridge. It’ll be cold and ready to go when you need it. Wash only full loads of dishes and clothing or utilize load size options.

These small changes can make a big difference in everyday usage, and in securing our precious water resources, locally and globally.
