I learned something interesting yesterday.

But first more aids.

Figuring out a method of carrying things. Honestly, having a pram has been the best thing for me. I don’t know why they’re not used all of the time. Before I used a backpack because weight was distributed evenly. But there are other carriers with two wheels that people use.

Massage oils and massage rollers/guns can be beneficial.

Progressive muscle relaxation is an excellent method.

Yoga and Qi Gong are excellent because they both focus in relaxation as well as exercise.

Low impact exercise is great for people with health issues. Walking and cycling.

Seeing a physiotherapist can be beneficial for working out muscle imbalances.

Pelvic floor exercises are helpful for low back pain.

Breathing exercises are an underutilised resource.

Okay, now the interesting thing.

Lactate can build and cause panic attacks. This occurs during at least 3 situations. Exercise, hyperventilation and breathing issues. Fascinating stuff. So the idea is that if you are feeling particularly anxious, ideally to focus on relaxing before doing exercise. Anxiety on top of exercise can be too much and increase anxiety sometimes.

Fascinating stuff! I didn’t know this.
