Walking more

I'm trying some of the things from Andrew Weil. Can't hurt. A lot of the same stuff in there I see elsewhere.

I downloaded a new pedometer for my phone from the Cleveland Clinic. It's a total failure as a program. I took a 15-20 minute walk today and the pedometer registered 35 steps over 2 and a half minutes. Back to the pedometer from the Black Dog Institute. They may be on the other side of the planet from where I am, but their app is helping me. It's pretty basic, you can't save your progress or set multisession goals. But it works as a pedometer.

Slowly increasing my walking distance as well. My goal is to make it to the end of our street, something that would be a 18-20 minute walk. I got 5-6 houses from it today, and on the way back detoured a bit to the next street over (which is not very far). Almost there.


Found this Stanford Prof talking about depression, very informative

Also got some decent leads on new jobs. Things I am qualified for. Keeping my fingers crossed.
