I just finished my first cycle with paragon I used it 3-5 minutes and I listened to it once at 15 mins.
Last week I found that my resting pulse was 100 bpm. It was staying steady there the next day as well. So I immediately stopped caffeine. I started walking 20 minutes every day- I plan to get to 60 minutes. I don’t even consider that a workout. I also do probably 1 or 2 times a day of boxed breathing, definitely in the morning before my walking. Then I do 2:1 breathing for 5 mins after walking. Then sometime later in the day. I also do it while I drive to work, or if I gotta drive to the store or something. I also have been drinking hibiscus tea. Also some liposomal vitamin c before bed.
I looked it up and the things I’m doing probably aren’t going to help in 1 week. It takes time and consistency they say. Well today my resting heart rate is 85bpm, that’s 1 week later. So I’m definitely going to keep up with all the other things I’m doing. At this rate I think a much lower resting heart rate is possible especially when I get to 60 minute daily walks, just a nice and easy pace not breathing heavy.
