I got a desk treadmill to relieve stress — instead, it stressed me out

The $ 240 Mobvoi Home Walking Treadmill pairs with a smartwatch so all your steps are counted.

You can download the app from the Google Play Store onto any Android smartwatch.

It connects to the walking pad when you turn it on and voila. Your metrics are right there on your wrist.

I was so concerned about doing something “the right way” that I ended up not doing it at all.

My experience improved once I chucked the smartwatches into a drawer.

As a result, my mental health improved, and I take far more walks now. My life isn't any less stressful — I just have more endorphins.
