i only check mine if dont feel well @Shaz51 dr changed meds, that helped. was on dift meds before thyroid op, they didnt seem to work the same after that. when ever dr takes bp now they say 'fine' but 5 years ago would have said bad for same reading .. lol

You'd need to be extra careful with kidney disease @Shaz51 

I prob should talk to gp about stronger BP meds. Haven't meditated or done yoga nidra for a while,  should go back to them.

Shorter walks more often might help @TAB .

Hi @deshift  guessing you are a walker ? hope things not too bad for you today. think going back to bed here lol

@TAB  When I am doing really well, I walk at first light every morning and do some gentle meditation exercise too at the parklands. It's been so long I forgot how good it made me feel! 😁

That sounds ideal @deshift . I'm not an early riser but often walk at sunset.

Hello @Oaktree @SmilingGecko wondering where you're at with walking and other exercise.  I'm still walking every day but often break for a few minutes halfway on a handy park bench. I've dipped out on resistance bands but am doing exercises for a dodgy back. Overall I'm making an effort but wish I was doing more. 

I'd love to hear how you're going.
