i bought some grounding sheets after reading about how connecting to the earths energy reduces inflammation and helps you sleep deeper. figured id try it for a month since my job has me sitting all day and my back always aches. the first week or so i thought maybe i was sleeping a bit better but now its been three weeks and nothing major has changed.

still wake up tired and my joints feel the same. they werent super cheap either. is grounding actually a real thing or just pseudoscience?

i started aiming for 10k steps every day for the past six weeks because all the health people say its the magic number for staying fit and living longer. my retail job keeps me moving but i added extra walks to hit the goal. at first it felt good but now my knees are bothering me more and im exhausted by evening without seeing much change in how i look or feel.

its free but the pressure to hit it every single day is getting old. is the 10k steps thing actually backed up or just a random number everyone repeats?
