Highlights this week - Aug 8th to 14th - back to a fairly good balance
Symbol & emoji of the week: 
- Self-discipline: Instead of procrastinating breakfasting, I now just do it first thing when I’m hungry.
-
Supps: Back on track.
- Balancing serotonin & dopamine is the challenge; amounts, times & selectivity tough.
- 600+600 GABA is OK , incl. bp/pulse. Less compulsive fw, more housework.
- Theanine to 400mg took sleep length down. Back to 300mg is OK, but not lower now.
- Glutamine at 2:00 helps. But next down a bit, then up with glycinate. +Taurine.
- drjockers recommends what I’m doing, but his doses are strange, so I wrote…
- Bladder pain has been as good as before the GABA overdose.
- Activities & actions were pretty good.
- Back mobilization was good, neck & back group gently was good, but slightly too much.
- The linseed oil I’d started using was off, came across a caveat on the web.
- My docs’ “Mediterranean” diet is actually ‘Nordic’: canola oil, joghurt, skyr…
-
Symptoms: GI (0-1) , bladder (0-1) , jaw , energy great . Exhaustion isn’t.
- Yoga Nidra videos help substitute sleep, sometimes intenser than AuTr.
- Reacting flexibly & quickly to cold & hot flashes is helping.
-
Stiffness: watching, counting how long (30’’-1’), pain if I don’t wait (5), if I do (1-2?).
- Right loin returned, so need to
go to gym again.
- Got pee frequency down at night by more drink discipline & dry mouth gel/lipstick.
- Adding a 2nd (30’’) cold shower to the 1st before sleep at night improves sleep. Cream OK too.
- Sometimes lying too long seems a problem, sometimes not.
-
Sleep techniques are getting clearer: positions, sequences, hacks.
- Sitting on bar stool better: I’ll try to do it similar everywhere, esp. work!
- Researching amino acids deeper as well as interesting deep & lengthy forum work this week.
