The best sic doctors anywhere!

This is a good way to learn a little about myself and the goals that I will be setting to improve my mental and physical health.  I have already met a few of these goals and then others I have re-introduce into my daily routine and make them habits once more.  The areas which I have already met is drinking water which is usually done through my water bottle and tea but know there should be some more improvement.  I am pretty close to have rest full sleep with between 8 to 10 hours but I am using medication to help me but hope to cut back to 1/2 a pill and then none by the end of spring.  I have a pretty good diet (following diabetic guidelines) and eating 3 meals a day with two snack periods which includes most of the food groups but lack in veggies most days.

The areas which I'm really lacking in because of anxiety are: sunshine (when we get it in Vancouver) but use a SAD light to help, air (stale inside air does not count) and exercise.  I use to go for walks a lot which helped me with sunshine, fresh air and moderate exercise because I use to go for 1/2hr or more.  I would like to improve my exercise by doing things that is greatly needed like stretching, chair exercises (to help with balance) and go to a community center to use facilities that I can use a stationary bike and go swimming.

I will have to tell you about some of the challenges that I have with seeing some of those great free doctors of mine that will help with my visits to my family doctor and Specialists.  Wish me the best! :)
