2022-08-22, Monday - Energy 25% / Sleep 85% / Feeling 85%-ish
Successes:
Due to making it a habit to turning front down and use elbows & knees to get up I only need a few seconds rather than minutes.
Meal before supps in the evening makes it earlier.
2 cold showers inside an hour not successful, drained heat and strained a back muscle.
Hot water bottle, incl. under “hunchback” balanced heat and strain.
Double pillow & acupressure allowed supps before getting up.
Kept all heartburn & burning stomach down.
Learnt:
My low fT4 means my thyroid is nothing to worry about, like my docs also said. T3 and TSH Normal but T4 Slightly Low
Realized acupressure under the sternum is of course targetting the lower esophagus sphincter.
Food-names like chicory occasionally mean something different US / EU…
