I need to be more mindful...
I need to be more mindful to get off my butt and exercise. I feel I've got the whole eating better thing okay. I'll also try to be even more mindful and eat even healthier. I need to cut down on the Coke. I guess I can have it for breakfast, because that's when I really need it. I need the caffeine and sugar and the…

I've done prescriptions, otc meds, warm milk, no milk, no tv, meditation, blackout curtains. You name it I probably tried it. I'm never really tired throughout the day, although I'm exhausted in the…

Restless Legs - how to stop?!
Hi All! I suffer from restless legs almost every single night. It even escalates to include other parts of my body. I tire myself out with exercise and hard brain work during the day and have a warm bath at night (often). I use a kindle to read and have created a regular time for bed. On bad nights I will only clock 2-3…

Headphones while sleeping
I actually sleep with headphones as a matter of principle. Sometimes with music (whatever), sometimes with "sleeping noises" like rain on a tin roof. Sometimes I just have the headphones on to minimise ambient noise. What experiences have you had with headphones? Which ones do you use? In-ear or over-ear? I had over-ear…

10‑Day “Dopamine Reset” to Tame Late‑Night Cravings
Hey MFP crew, Lately my will‑power’s been crashing after 9 p.m. scrolling, “just one more” cookie, random YouTube rabbit holes, or "gooning" as the youngers would say. Decided to run a quick dopamine reset and track how it affects my calories, sleep and workout consistency. What I’m testing Phone curfew – airplane mode at…

Manifestation of anxiety
I steadily tracked my diet for about two years. I’ve suffered with anxiety for a long time and recently, through various means, I am less anxious than I have ever been. Here’s the interesting thing. As odd as it sounds, I find now that my anxiety is under control I’m less motivated to track my calories. I still exercise…

Keep twitching in my sleep
Hi, I hope someone can suggest how to stop this as it's driving me + my partner nuts! You know the jolt you get when falling asleep? I get this several times while trying to get to sleep, mainly in my leg. I can feel the tension building in it and if I give it a wiggle it sometimes stops me kicking out. My partner says on…

An antidote from my therapist
If you can practice treating each day as its own contained effort - a chance to reinforce your standards without obsessing about outcomes - it might help ease that internal pressure. -- I constantly apply external validation on my victories.

Learning to relax, truly relax
So I've generally throughout life been pretty lazy when it comes to structured movement and exercise, and when I have done it, the results I've gone for are cardio fitness or building strength. More mindful exercise, yoga etc, has never really appealed. But after a hellish year or so, I've realised I need to start looking…

I overtrained
I just wanted to share my experience because some say that it's almost impossible for regular folks to overtrain. I'm going to start off by saying that my job was probably the main culprit. I'm seriously considering quitting my job because it's inhumane. I was probably being active close to 40h a week with everything…

Infrared Sauna = Sleep!
As a lifelong insomniac, infrared saunas have helped me sleep better than anything. I’ve tried and I’ve tried it all! I started using infrared sauna as a part of my Restore package in October. Then I started going to Hotworx and using the infrared sauna yoga. I go to sleep on time (for me) and wake up early refreshed. I…
