Good morning Lori and thank you for sharing your experience. Someone with high blood pressure may find this information helpful! I am very sensitive to medication and herbal supplements but have found tremendous relief with some of the herbal supplements I have tried for physical anxiety-that flight or flight mode/stress response that I have experienced due to insomnia. I really wanted to respond to your post to commend and praise you for your 7 mile walks! Way to go!!! I have been a walker on and off my whole life (now 72 years young) and I normally walk 3-5 miles per day with my goal being 100 miles per month and 1000 miles per year. (Last year was 920 miles) Let me tell you, I keep Brooks Glycerin shoes in business! Walking is my meditation, personal encouragement and free mental health therapy!!
Between walking and my red light therapy machine (which is truly a miracle device for pain and inflammation) I keep at it every day. Thanks for being an encouragement to others and blessings to you.

Good morning, @1oldsoul. What a great, inspirational post to start my day with a fellow walker. Thank you for sharing your experience with walking! I’m always encouraging people to get outside to walk, listen to the birds, take in the beauty of the plants and sky, immerse yourself in nature. Really, Mother Nature is the best therapist. Walking is a mind cleanser for putting life into perspective, sorting through troubles, coming to conclusions, gaining clarity.
But more than that it is so beneficial to our bodies! ☺️

I’ll have to check out the Brooks Glycerin shoes! I’m due for a new pair of walking shoes. We just returned back to Wisconsin after 4 months walking the beach on the Gulf. My poor feet are experiencing culture shock having to wear shoes again! LOL.

You mentioned your red light therapy machine. I don’t have any experience in that area. Though I’ve noticed several discussions popping up in Connect on the subject. Most sound very favorable. I don’t want to derail this conversation by changing it to Red Light therapy but if you’d like to share your experience, here is the link to the discussions! https://connect.mayoclinic.org/search/
Maybe you can let others know how beneficial it’s been for you. How did you know which one the purchase?
