Exercise
I started walking/running again last week. In the past, I’ve started exercise programs for my body. This time, I’m exercising for my physical and mental health. Let me just say, I hate walking/running. I think it’s the most boring exercise on the planet. This is why I can’t keep it up for more than a few days.
I’m using running meditation music now, and it’s made a huge impact on my motivation. I’ve mentioned before my fascination with brain wave technology. Running Meditation by Kelly Howell gets my mind to wander while I walk. I don’t think about the walking.
Vitamins
In April, I saw an alternative health specialist for my chronic fatigue and other annoying symptoms. He started me on supplements to improve liver function. The following month, he started me on vitamin b to stabilize my mood swings and blood sugar.
Since starting, I’ve seen an enormous improvement to my health in general. I lost a little weight, my ankles aren’t swelling, my tongue isn’t coated, my mood is swinging less, and my blood sugar doesn’t drop. Yay!
However, my fatigue is at an all time high. I’ve had to really push myself to get out and walk this past week. I had to push myself to sit here and write today.
I often talk about how I worry my fatigue is really just a sign of laziness. Right now, I know full well the fatigue I’m feeling is very real.
I’m playing catch up and from the looks of your entries, I might have a lot to catch up on. The good news is that you’re still here. I hope you get the chance to fill me in on what’s been going on with you.
