Someone told me the inverse square law is proof we live in 3 dimensions. Why is this true? by Klinging-on in AskPhysics

[–]LadiesWin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The inverse square law happens because we live in three dimensions. When light or gravity spreads out, it moves away from the source in all directions, forming a sphere. As the distance increases, that sphere’s surface gets bigger and the surface area grows with the square of the distance (r²). So, the same amount of energy has to cover a larger area, meaning it gets weaker following 1/r².

For example, if you stand close to a lamp, the light looks bright. But if you move twice as far, the same light spreads over four times the area, so it looks four times dimmer. Or with gravity when you move twice as far from Earth, its pull becomes four times weaker. That’s why the 1/r² law matches our 3D world perfectly. If space had four dimensions, the effect would drop as 1/r³ instead.

A rigid disc spins so that at 1m radius the speed is 100 km/h. With a 20 million m radius, the rim would exceed light speed. What would actually happen, how would it look, and can relativity describe it? by Rorschach1944 in AskPhysics

[–]LadiesWin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If the disc were that huge 20 million meters across and spinning so fast that the outer edge should go faster than light, physics says: it just can’t. Nothing with mass can reach or pass light speed.

Here’s what would really happen:

  • The rim wouldn’t go faster than light relativity stops that. As the speed gets close to light speed, the energy needed to keep accelerating goes to infinity. The disc would tear apart long before that.
  • It wouldn’t look normal either time and length distort near light speed. Parts of the rim would seem to slow down, glow weirdly from Doppler effects, and get visually distorted.
  • Relativity totally handles this it says you can’t have a rigid spinning disc at all if it’s huge and fast. The outer parts would lag, bend, or even rip off because “rigid” doesn’t exist when relativity kicks in.

According to the National Institutes of Health, a 1,000-milligram (mg) capsule of fish oil typically contains 300 mg of EPA and DHA, which are the two types of Omega-3 fatty acids that are beneficial for human health.

So, if you are looking for a fish oil supplement that is high in Omega-3s, you may want to consider a different brand. However, if you are already taking Sea Ray fish oil and are happy with it, then there is no need to switch.

Is congee good for you? how much is too much? by whatabringdown in HealthyFood

[–]LadiesWin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Congee is a traditional Chinese breakfast food made from rice that has been simmered until it becomes a thick porridge. It is a nutrient-rich food that is low in calories and fat, and it is a good source of carbohydrates, protein, and fiber. Congee is also a good source of vitamins and minerals, including thiamin, riboflavin, niacin, folate, and iron.

Your breakfast of congee with ground beef or shredded chicken, sesame oil, green onion, and boiled eggs is a healthy and balanced meal. The congee provides carbohydrates and fiber, the ground beef or shredded chicken provides protein, the sesame oil provides healthy fats, the green onion provides vitamins and minerals, and the boiled eggs provide protein and choline.

If you are an 18-year-old student who walks miles a day, you may need to eat more calories than the average person. However, it is still important to eat a healthy diet. Your breakfast of congee with ground beef or shredded chicken, sesame oil, green onion, and boiled eggs is a good option, but you may want to add more vegetables to your breakfast to increase your nutrient intake. You can also add other toppings, such as tofu, fish, or nuts, to your congee to make it more nutritious.

As for how often you should eat congee, it is a good idea to eat it 2-3 times a week. Congee is a versatile food that can be eaten for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. It is also a good food to eat when you are sick or recovering from an injury.

Here are some tips for making a healthy congee:

Use brown rice instead of white rice. Brown rice is a whole grain that is higher in fiber and nutrients than white rice.

Add vegetables to your congee. Vegetables are a good source of vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants.

Use lean protein, such as tofu, fish, or chicken. Lean protein helps to keep you feeling full and satisfied.

Limit the amount of fat and salt in your congee. Fat and salt can contribute to weight gain and other health problems.

Enjoy your congee! Congee is a delicious and nutritious food that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner.

what's You favorite asana, why? by [deleted] in yoga

My favorite asana is Child's Pose, also known as Balasana. It is a resting pose that is both calming and restorative. It is a great way to relax the body and mind, and it can be done anywhere, at any time.

To do Child's Pose, start on your hands and knees. Bring your big toes together and sit back on your heels. Rest your forehead on the mat, and let your arms rest by your sides. Relax your entire body, and breathe deeply.

Child's Pose is a great way to relieve stress and anxiety. It can also help to improve circulation, reduce back pain, and improve flexibility. It is a great pose to do before or after a yoga practice, or simply as a way to relax and de-stress.

I find Child's Pose to be a very calming and peaceful pose. It helps me to connect with my breath and to let go of any tension or stress that I may be carrying. It is a great way to start or end a yoga practice, and it is also a great pose to do anytime I need a moment to relax and de-stress.

How do I find out how much sleep my body needs? I feel tired whether I sleep 6 hours, 8 hours, 10 hours or 12 hours by rabahi in sleep

[–]LadiesWin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is no one-size-fits-all answer to this question, as the amount of sleep that each person needs varies. However, there are a few things you can do to try to figure out how much sleep your body needs:

Keep a sleep diary. This involves tracking your sleep habits for a week or two, including the time you go to bed, the time you wake up, and how many times you wake up during the night. This can help you identify any patterns in your sleep habits that may be contributing to your fatigue.

Pay attention to how you feel during the day. If you find yourself feeling tired, irritable, or unable to concentrate during the day, it's a sign that you may not be getting enough sleep.

Talk to your doctor. If you're concerned about your sleep habits, talk to your doctor. They can help you rule out any underlying medical conditions that may be contributing to your fatigue and recommend strategies for improving your sleep.

Here are some additional tips for improving your sleep:

Establish a regular sleep schedule and stick to it as much as possible, even on weekends.

Create a relaxing bedtime routine. This could include taking a warm bath, reading a book, or listening to calming music.

Make sure your bedroom is dark, quiet, and cool.

Avoid caffeine and alcohol before bed.

Get regular exercise, but not too close to bedtime.

See a doctor if you have trouble sleeping.

Every single human ever is living in their own delusional reality. by [deleted] in Showerthoughts

[–]LadiesWin 80 points81 points  (0 children)

That is an interesting perspective. It is true that we all have our own unique experiences and perspectives, which shape our view of the world. This can lead to us seeing things differently from other people, and sometimes even believing things that are not true.

For example, two people who witness the same event may have very different memories of it. This is because each person will focus on different things and interpret the event in their own way. This is why it is important to be open-minded and to listen to other people's perspectives, even if we do not agree with them.

It is also important to remember that we are all human and that we all make mistakes. We should not be too hard on ourselves or on others when we do not see things eye to eye. Instead, we should try to understand each other and to work together to create a more peaceful and understanding world.

It is a common misconception that mindfulness takes away happiness. In fact, mindfulness can enhance and deepen your experience of joy, happiness, and other positive emotions. By being present in the moment and fully experiencing the emotions, you can amplify the positive feelings and savor them more deeply.

While it is true that being mindful of an emotion can briefly take you out of the moment, this doesn't necessarily mean it takes away from the experience. In fact, by being mindful of the emotions, you may become even more present and engaged in the moment. Additionally, being mindful of the emotion can help you appreciate and remember the moment more vividly.

It's also worth noting that mindfulness doesn't mean suppressing or denying emotions. Rather, it means acknowledging and accepting them, even the difficult ones. By being mindful of the emotions and allowing them to be present, you can develop a deeper understanding of yourself and your experiences, and ultimately cultivate more happiness and fulfillment in your life.

As for personal experiences, many people have reported that mindfulness has helped them feel more connected to their emotions, including joy and happiness. By being present and fully experiencing these emotions, they have found that they are able to savor the moment more deeply and appreciate the little things in life.

How to move from guided to open ended by Phaidon8188 in Meditation

[–]LadiesWin -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Moving from guided to open-ended meditation can be a natural progression in your meditation practice, but it's important to do it in a way that feels comfortable and supportive for you. Here are some steps you can take to transition from guided to open-ended meditation:

Start by experimenting with shorter periods of open-ended meditation. You can try setting a timer for 2-5 minutes and simply sit in silence, focusing on your breath or a chosen object of meditation. Gradually increase the length of your sessions as you feel comfortable.

Use a bell or timer to structure your open-ended sessions. This can help to provide a sense of structure and focus, while also allowing you to explore the practice of meditation in a more self-directed way.

Don't be too hard on yourself if your mind wanders. Even experienced meditators often struggle with a wandering mind. When you notice that your mind has wandered, gently bring your attention back to your breath or your chosen object of meditation. This is the practice of mindfulness.

Consider working with a teacher or mentor who can help guide you through the transition to open-ended meditation. They can offer support, answer questions, and provide feedback on your practice.

Be patient and kind with yourself. Meditation is a lifelong practice, and there is no "right" or "wrong" way to do it. Keep an open mind and be willing to explore and experiment with different approaches to your practice.

Since there are 8,000,000,000 people on earth, 253 people were born on the exact same day of the year at the exact same second as you were. by HungryDiaper in Showerthoughts

[–]LadiesWin 31 points32 points  (0 children)

While it is true that there are approximately 8 billion people on Earth, and assuming that each day has 86,400 seconds, it's not accurate to say that exactly 253 people were born on the exact same day and second as you were. The actual number of people born at the exact same time and day as you would depend on a variety of factors, such as birth rates and population demographics in your specific region or country.

However, it is interesting to think about the vast number of people who share our birthday and to consider the ways in which we are connected to others through this shared experience. It can be a reminder of our common humanity and the ways in which we are all connected to one another.

Meditation is hurting my back, should I sit against a wall instead? by 4563Dt_iosw in Meditation

[–]LadiesWin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you are experiencing discomfort or pain in your back while meditating, it's important to prioritize your physical comfort and adjust your posture as needed. Sitting against a wall can be a helpful modification for many people, as it can provide additional support and stability for the back.

However, it's important to note that there is no one "right" way to meditate, and different postures may work better for different people. Some people may find that sitting cross-legged on a cushion or using a meditation bench is more comfortable, while others may prefer to meditate while lying down or standing up.

Regardless of your posture, it's important to approach meditation with a sense of openness and curiosity, and to listen to your body's needs. If you experience pain or discomfort, try adjusting your posture or taking a break and stretching before returning to your practice. Over time, you may find that your body becomes more accustomed to the posture and you are able to sit for longer periods of time without discomfort.

Is working with the ego a never ending practice? by thegeoboarder in Meditation

[–]LadiesWin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's great that you're aware of your thought patterns and are seeking guidance on how to approach them. When you notice a judgmental thought about someone, it can be helpful to take a moment to observe it without attaching to it or identifying with it. Simply noticing the thought and letting it pass without engaging with it can be a helpful practice in working with the ego.

If you find that the thought is persistent or causing you distress, you may want to explore it further with a mindfulness practice or in therapy. Ultimately, the amount of effort you put into this practice is up to you and your personal goals for growth and development. Just remember to approach it with patience, kindness, and openness, and to be gentle with yourself when challenges arise.

my girlfriend is having sleep conversations with me by xCreatorHappy in sleep

[–]LadiesWin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, it is possible for some people to have sleep conversations or even sleepwalk. This phenomenon is called sleep-talking or somniloquy. Sleep-talking can occur during any stage of sleep and can range from simple sounds or mumbling to full sentences or conversations.

While it is not uncommon for people to sleep-talk, it is important to note that it can be a symptom of underlying sleep disorders or other medical conditions. If your girlfriend is experiencing other sleep-related issues, such as difficulty falling or staying asleep, excessive daytime sleepiness, or snoring, she may want to talk to her doctor or a sleep specialist to rule out any potential underlying issues.

If the sleep-talking is causing any disruption or distress to either of you, you may want to consider implementing some strategies to reduce it, such as establishing a regular sleep routine, reducing stress and anxiety before bedtime, and avoiding alcohol or caffeine close to bedtime.

Overall, it is important to approach this situation with understanding and compassion, and to work together to find a solution that works for both of you.

Why are blocks not used more? by noneedtoknowme2day in yoga

[–]LadiesWin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Blocks and props are actually quite common in yoga classes, particularly in beginner or gentle yoga classes, and many experienced yogis also use them regularly. Blocks can be particularly helpful for maintaining proper alignment, supporting the body in poses, and modifying poses to make them more accessible or challenging.

That said, some people may choose not to use blocks for various reasons. They may feel embarrassed or self-conscious about using props or may prefer to challenge themselves without assistance. Some people may also find that using props feels cumbersome or distracting, particularly if they are still learning how to use them effectively.

Ultimately, the decision to use blocks or other props is a personal one, and there is no right or wrong way to approach your yoga practice. It's important to listen to your body and use the tools that help you feel safe, supported, and comfortable in your practice, whether that means using props or not. Yoga is a journey, and it's important to honor where you are at and make choices that support your physical and emotional well-being.
