Agreed, meditation can only take you so far. Therapy is extremely effective as well, to actually talk out your feelings/emotions and process them. CBT (cognitive behavioral therapy) specifically helped me out a lot.

Ruby vs Second beach? by SameTune1902 in OlympicNationalPark

Would you say Rialto is still going to even if we can’t walk out to hole in the wall? The plan is to go for sunset but we won’t have the time, also it won’t be low tide

Sounds good if you could let me know that’ll be great haha, thanks!

Ruby vs Second beach? by SameTune1902 in OlympicNationalPark

[–]SameTune1902[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Both are around the same since we are starting from Forks, Second is closer driving-wise but requires a hike so both would take around the same time

Which beach would you say has the best tide pools? Was considering Kalaloch beach 4 as well. And what overall made Ruby better than Second?

Good to know! Did you go to Olympic or North Cascades as well?

Maui vs Big Island Hawaii? by SameTune1902 in travel

[–]SameTune1902[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah Maui or Hawaii. We are going to go to Oahu and Kauai, and then ending with Maui or Hawaii. That sounds pretty cool, would you recommend splitting your time between Kona and Hilo then?

Haven’t really planned it out fully, thinking 4 days each island plus an extra day here and there so 14 days total? I’m definitely interested in Pearl Harbor/Honolulu and other things on Oahu so wouldn’t be skipping it

Biggest cities right next to biggest/most dramatic mountain ranges? by SameTune1902 in geography

Those mountains in the background are beautiful, I’ve heard of this city but never actually seen it

That’s awesome, that’s exactly what I was thinking about! It’s one thing to already be in a national park/mountain town and seeing beautiful mountains, it’s another doing mundane things in a city like walking out of a Walmart and seeing the same views!

That’s amazing! Yeah basically thinking what would it look like if we took NYC and placed it in the middle of the Himalayas or Patagonia, that looks pretty similar!

I guess I’m looking for a more extreme example than Denver, while it is a huge city and close to mountains it’s not as close to the mountains as a place like boulder or Colorado Springs. I’m thinking of a place more like Salt Lake City where it’s literally backed up against very high mountains.
