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?

Lori, I will share my positive experiences on that other link later today, but in answer to your question, I read a blog by Ari Whitten on red light therapy and one of the machines he recommended was from the Red Therapy Company. At the time I was suffering from Plantar Fasciitis with a heel spur on my left foot that did not respond to an injection and was so painful that it was preventing me from my walks which was breaking my heart so I was desperate to try something. I settled on the Red Rush 400 which I was able to purchase a refurbished one (probably a 60 day guarantee return item) for considerably less-($400 I believe with the discount code Ari provided “Energy Blueprint” which is his website.) Within 2 weeks of using the device 5 days a week with my heels pointed toward the device 4-6” away for 10 minutes a day, I was back on the road and absolutely a believer. It took another week or so to know the plantar fasciitis was completely gone and I continued to use it for another month or so to make sure. I will detail my other uses for the machine when I share my experiences on the other link. To be continued!
