Summary
Glacier 93275 developed long COVID after a COVID-19 infection, with insomnia that followed a brief better spell after the acute phase. A low-histamine diet with quercetin cleared the insomnia. They also credited eating and drinking plenty and avoiding gluten, dairy and high-histamine foods. By mid-March 2021 some muscle tension remained that meditation could no longer fully release.

In context ↗ - Jacobson's muscle relaxation · Helped
Performing Jacobson's muscle relaxation to fully relax my muscles still works pretty much though, although some muscles seem to be a bit tense anyway.
