Feeling Physically Better

This morning I am feeling physically better than yesterday. I am not nearly as nauseous which is a big relief. It might explain why I have more motivation to do a few things. One thing I would like to do is some technology setup. I would like to get my desktop switch live and going so I can setup my desk phone as there are not enough ports on my router. I may do that this afternoon if boredom creeps in.

I wish I knew why Ozempic was really causing me so much grief because it worked so well. I will have to work with my doctor and the practice social worker to get qualified for something else. From what I understand, Zepbound or WeGovy could be better for me. Either way, it’s going to take some discussion first. I need to make an appointment to see my primary care doctor.

I did take an important step last night which I am proud of. I began shopping for a Zen meditation bench and found a likely candidate for $39 on Amazon. I know that I want to be serious about regular meditation because it is empirically proven to have profound physical and mental health benefits. So I am very happy that I began taking a serious look at what I would need to make this happen.

I had more time to process the documentary that I saw last night called E-motion 2.0. I might have actually gotten a little bit more out of it than I first suspected. It got me seriously thinking about regular meditation and working towards good physical health through eating better. It is entirely possible to eat more nutritiously without having to spend more money for premium foods. Something about the documentary got me over the inertia over routine change. I needed something exactly like that.

If regular meditation could help reduce the anger, depression, and anxiety that I feel, I hope years of my life could come back. I hope that I could reverse some of the damage done to my body. The body is, as the documentary correctly notes, designed to heal itself. It would be great if I could even get a small reduction in the amount of pain/discomfort that I experience daily.
