At the start of Lent (February 18), I decided to give up alcohol and quit Zyn. Over the last 2.5 weeks, I've seen a significant increase in my HRV and a decrease in my resting heart rate. These are the typical improvements people experience when quitting these substances, but I wanted to log my results for anyone considering similar changes for health reasons. I'll post soon about my sleep progress and my recent addition of sauna sessions to my routine.
One of my goals is to achieve a resting heart rate of 40 BPM. I hope to achieve this within the next 3-6 months.

@OmaniCarson Would be interested to see what kind of EMF’s are emitted from the cooler and frequency device. Also, I hope the grounding wire is connected into the actual ground and not outlet.
