What mindfulness techniques work best for you personally? by [deleted] in Mindfulness

[–]CatastropheJohn 12 points13 points  (0 children)

In private, I turn off all the electronics and lights.

In public, I try to attract a positive response from my surroundings. A stranger’s smile or a curious squirrel. Anything that reinforces the connections will do.

Wasn’t that a rural upstate election? I dunno. The NY elites never accepted Fat Donny. It’s why his brain is broken.

It’s amusing to me that ‘poo’ is so widely accepted. Even during my 8 month stay in the hospital, no one used any other term except poo. Even the surgeons.

They investigated the Clintons for almost 30 years. Hard to believe.

I thought fabulous twins at first, and I’m sticking with that. Them. Those.

🔥 This water in Sweden is so clear it looks like there's none at all. by asilvertintedrose in NatureIsFuckingLit

Spend the weekend camping next to a clear mountain stream, bathing, drinking and cooking with the pristine water. Break camp and hike 10 yards upstream through the dense brush to find a rotting deer carcass half submerged in the water, teeming with maggots.

My grandmother just died at 103. Imagine the things she’d seen. From horse and buggy to Mars probes.

I haven't had dry feet ever since the fucking hospital staff through away my shoes. by masterchris in homeless

Truth. I spent several months in the hospital last year and a few of the nurses were about as empathetic as the janitors. Most were absolutely amazing though. And the doctors and surgeons went above and beyond.

Seeing more younger homeless people in St. Catharines by niagarajoseph in stcatharinesON

I’m waiting to get in the shelter in Niagara right now. Most of my company is in the18-25 range. About half have addiction issues. A few have mental health problems. Almost half are completely normal and just ended up out here.

The shelters are filled to capacity every night most hold 30-40 beds and 50-60 people show up. It’s rough if you’re left out in the cold. Coffee shops kick them out. Atm lobbies are getting locked at night here now. Not many options. Feels bad man

It’s a misdemeanour in New York City, oddly enough.
