The Wednesday Wellness threads are meant to encourage users to ask for and provide advice and motivation to improve their lives. It isn't intended as a 'containment thread' and any content which could go here could instead be posted in its own thread. You could post:
-
Requests for advice and / or encouragement. On basically any topic and for any scale of problem.
-
Updates to let us know how you are doing. This provides valuable feedback on past advice / encouragement and will hopefully make people feel a little more motivated to follow through. If you want to be reminded to post your update, see the post titled 'update reminders', below.
-
Advice. This can be in response to a request for advice or just something that you think could be generally useful for many people here.
-
Encouragement. Probably best directed at specific users, but if you feel like just encouraging people in general I don't think anyone is going to object. I don't think I really need to say this, but just to be clear; encouragement should have a generally positive tone and not shame people (if people feel that shame might be an effective tool for motivating people, please discuss this so we can form a group consensus on how to use it rather than just trying it).
Jump in the discussion.

Notes -
Ha. I took an old blanket down to start using my summer cabin early, and spent an hour sneezing and dribbling before going to get an anti- allergen. You don't realize how dusty stuff has gotten until you stick your face in it.
What's humid enough for you? It's usually 40-50% indoors here, which feels about right. Cold snap with a fire running gets it down to 20%, which is enough to dry out my everything.
I'm in coastal California so my humidity meter typically hovers around 50-60% most of the year, sometimes dipping into the 40% range when the regional climate shifts in the wintertime. A small desktop humidifier usually pushes it up about 15% maximum, depending on the setting, which means I'm covered for most of the year. I feel like 65% is the sweet spot between breathability and not having the room feel excessively soggy.
