💭 Diary Entry: Testing, Tweaking… and a Tiny Vibration Friend?

“Okay, confession time: I’ve been leaning on Mag 07 for far too long to keep things moving 💨 (if you know, you know). But it's really not meant for everyday use—so I'm testing out acacia fibre as a gentler, more sustainable replacement. Early signs? Promising! Less drama, more regularity.

And then there’s this new little gadget I’ve strapped to my wrist: Apollo Neuro. It gently vibrates to calm your nervous system—basically a wearable hug telling your body, “Shh, it’s okay, you’re safe.” 🧘‍♀️💓

I think it’s helping—I’ve slept better this week and love how it feels during the day. But let me be honest: the app is confusing, the modes never seem to match what I scheduled, and—wait for it—they want a subscription for the upgraded features. After nearly £300?! No thank you. It either works out of the box or it's catching a one-way trip back.

Still testing... stay tuned!” 🧪💤🌿

Had a dance marathon with hubby Saturday night... and now my histamine is throwing a tantrum. 2 day headache? Oh yes. Thanks, sneaky tomato, chocolate, sourdough, gin and late-night chaos.🤢

On the bright side, acacia fibre is my new BFF — two big scoops a day and my gut is happier than I am on the dancefloor!

Apollo Neuro is still a total mystery. I seriously need to contact them because I have no idea how it actually works!
Today, some random 'Recover' mode started buzzing — not even one I scheduled. Maybe it just knew I needed rescuing?😂
