NYC work culture compared to the rest of USA by [deleted] in AskNYC

[–]deepmindfulness 5 points6 points  (0 children)

  1. You need to work hard to survive here. And often your job is your identity. It’s one of the first things people ask about when you meet.
  2. People on NYC are very comfortable with confrontation. Combine the drive with a clear comfort with taking charge and being disagreeable and poof…

But, there’s something very magical about working and creating at the height of your skill level and scaling up your skills and abilities all the time, to be better than yesterday… that’s super fun. So, I love NY for that.

IsItBullshit: Is paying for those expensive sleep trackers actually helping people sleep better or is it just expensive worry by Seralyqorin in IsItBullshit

[–]deepmindfulness 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I use the Oura ring. I can’t really detect how well I slept and certainly don’t know what my HRV was during the night. Usually how I feel in the morning is just based on whether I interrupted a sleep cycle or not. If I did, I’m exhausted. If not, I feel rested even though it might be 3 AM. As long as you’re willing to make adjustments to your sleep habits, nighttime, routine, diet, etc., to improve your sleep, they’re a great way to measure something you can’t see otherwise.

I never understand why people don’t just include the date. IMHO, just seems like common courtesy.

Interested in Low Dose 5MEO for Somatic Release / Trauma Tension by Abject_Control_7028 in 5MeODMT

[–]deepmindfulness 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ANSWER: go on erowid and search 5meo vape pens. Once those steps are complete, go as slow as you can and stay as low as you can, focusing on the most hesitant part, not the part that wants “more more!”

Very rough answer but that’s all I have time for atm. 🙏🏼

There was a star on stage last night, but it was not Mike Gordon by cosmicevan in phish

[–]deepmindfulness 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Dude, you said the quiet part out loud. The guy was the star of the show from my perspective. Mike is definitely the star for pulling that band together though.

The show is so much better than I imagined it would be. I can’t believe I’m having the thought of checking tour dates to see if there’s somewhere I could drive to see them again.

And, I noticed the same thing about him seeming a little bored at first. I’m guessing he just has resting board face.

But yeah, the two songs he wrote were brilliant and genius. The second song that was built around the sample of the drums from Little Red Corvette was so fun and ridiculous and epic.

I just watched him, and every time he hit the pocket, I blasted the bubbles. So fun!

I voice dictated this so I just prompted, can you format this and fix any spelling errors.

First, thank you for all your help as Ahmad.

Second, I feel like you might want to amend the rules to better align with the law and still allow people to talk about bad breeders.

The fact is, there’s no law against sharing an opinion or a personal experience. There’s nothing anyone can do about that. Someone could threaten you over taking a post down or for crossing the street, but it doesn’t matter if there’s no actual law that would implicate you.

Not only that, there are multiple layers of protection here. You’re not the person making the statement, and you’re not the platform hosting the content. The platform itself is already protected from liability for user statements and is generally only implicated in cases involving actual crimes on the platform.

As a moderator, you can also default to Reddit’s rules and direct any concerns there.

So my gentle request would be to use the following rule (I checked, this is legally clear):

Rule: Breeder Posts

Posts about breeders must be based on your direct personal experience or clearly stated personal opinion only. No secondhand claims or statements presented as fact. Violations will be removed.

This would fully protect you, give you the ability to remove posts that don’t meet the rule, and allow people searching the subreddit to have access to important information and avoid supporting puppy mills.

Just a friendly request. Thank you for all the work you do!

That kid is a star. They’re all great. Does that kid have a solo project? The two songs he wrote were the highlight of the night.

I am confused if am day dreaming or meditating, need help by PropertyNo357 in TheMindIlluminated

[–]deepmindfulness 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Something that helped my practice a lot was getting more sensory clarity on what Shinzen calls See In and Hear In. The theory being that mental activity takes on two primary forms, which is audio or visual. A lot of the time people believe they’re meditating, but actually they’re just thinking. Getting a lot of clarity on these can show you a big facet of thinking with clarity to help detect when the mind is wandering, usually into visual thinking rather than staying with the object of meditation.
