Are you supplementing with Vit D3?

When you go to hawaii; do you go barefoot a lot? Like on the beach etc. I am wondering if "earthing" has made a difference for you. That is being electrically grounded to the earth. Wearing shoes prevents this. It gave me a boost of energy when I got an earthing sheet. I sleep on it everyday and it reduces inflammation.

Winter has just hit here. I can feel myself slowing down and being less happy.

I really, really hope that I just have a cold or the like. It'd be nice if the supplements I'm on overpower the winter blahs. (the SSRI i was on a few years back actually did do that)

I am most fascinated by this thread ! I´ve been trying to share info online for 10 years, regarding the location effect and ME (formerly Chronic Fatigue Syndrome) and Fibromyalgia.
I happen to live in Merida, Yucatan.

It may well be that most people with ME have Adrenal Fatigue.
So much of what you´ve posted here jives with what I´ve heard from people with ME (though of course, not all ME people are well in the same locations.)

Seattle is not generally good for ME people.

The desert is better than most places for them, but for them to be very very well, they seem to need to structure their lives around mold avoidance.

I hear mixed reports about Hawaii and there are variations from one part of Hawaii to another.

Most ME people I hear from go into remission while close to tropical seas. (IE: the Caribbean or the Pacific coast in that part of the world; also Philippines and Thailand - at least during dry season.)

My observations also give me the impression that location is the key factor for wellness for many ME people. As one poster here says, it seems to be a much bigger factor than supplements, stress, diet, ec., ec, ec.

I would love to hear more from you folks ! Please feel free to ask me about Merida !
