Re: Wading in, sometimes fast, sometimes slow

...I remember once in my 20s thinking, ‘The slower I go, the further I get, and the faster I get there’. Thanks, Circular, I just saw this. Funny, I have been talking about that very thing with a friend this weekend. You might want to look up the movie Remember the Goal about a cross country coach ...

Re: Brain HQ

I joined and bought a year at $66, their Holiday special. I thought if I am going to do it I would get the package where they make suggestions and make sure I take it seriously.

Orangeblossom, rooibos is one of my favorites. I used to buy it at Barnes & Noble bookstores but saw that theirs has sugar in it. Still tempted to buy it, though. Most tea I drink without sweetener but that one not so much.

How about that! Does blue tint block blue light?

Re: Lemon juice in warm water to break fast questions

I enjoy having chilled water with lemon during fasting, it helps to drink with any hunger pangs I find! Also cucumber is nice. (not to eat in the water I mean!) I drink chamomile tea first thing in the morning. (Too much lemon makes me fear for my oversensitive, not-so-well-enameled teeth.) Orangeb...

Re: Lemon juice in warm water to break fast questions

Hi drae, You are off to such a good start with the ste’ps you are taking with doing intermittent fasting for 12 hours, eliminating nighttime snacking, and getting 8 hours of sleep. Those are major changes. And your poco a poco motto is a wise approach to Dr Bredesen’s Protocol. As I understand it, ...

Re: I guess the overwhelm has begun

Drae, I totally get it. Anne I totally get what you are saying. Yes, it is just like that sometimes. I think I am much better now, able to start back poco a poco and keeping my eyes on the ground right in front of me. I learned that once hiking when looking ahead at the mountain I was on put me in ...

Wow! What a difference blue light filter glasses make on sleep!

My sleep cycle has always been iconicly (new word) bad. Part of my beginner plan was to get the Consumer Reports tested Uvex Skyper Blue Light Blocking Computer Glasses with SCT-Orange Lens (may have been a different model, but they were $10.16. I put them on after dinner and took them off at bedtim...

Re: EveryWell Food Sensitivity test

If memory serves... =) My mother had severe asthma brought on by allergies, and, I feel certain, sensitivities, mostly to foods. She was given 6 months to 2 years to live in 1965. She learned from a doctor that if she was feeling well when she woke up she could get up calmly, sit down, take a restin...
