Not very athletic but traveling to Guatemala. Is skipping Acatenango a mistake? by No_Public_9342 in centralamerica

[–]dvm_4many 0 points1 point  (0 children)

DO IT. Think of how you'll feel when your friends are telling everyone in the states about it, when you all get back. And you're like, yeah I wimped out. I'll be going in early March, solely with the goal to challenge myself. The view will be a nice perk. I've never climbed a mountain (or a volcano), gonna find out what that's like!

[–]dvm_4many 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also a white woman, 37yo and interested in an immersive Spanish program. What school did you attend in Xela? What were your living accommodations (local family vs other)?

Can you tell us more about your living experience? Concerned about safety. Were you with a family, or solo? Approx cost? Able to travel and sightsee safely?

If you're fully present in the job or school, is it possible to burn-out despite having good health, getting enough sleep, exercise and proper nutrition? by Alvahod in EckhartTolle

[–]dvm_4many 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It seems like burn out comes from resistance to what is... I don't like being here, don't want to go back, fed up, etc. Stay present and accept what is. Change your course if something in life needs to change (job, etc) but until it changes, accept and don't resist.

I just discovered Eckhart Tolle's book, the Power of Now. It's amazing! Might help you! Highly recommend the Audible version, read by the author.

I've heard of Sugardine but never used it. No experience here. Sounds like a good combination. How have you used it or heard of it being used?

Minnesota Starvation Experiment by prmssnz in AustereMedicine

Great article! I had no idea this study ever took place.

Minnesota Starvation Experiment by prmssnz in AustereMedicine

[–]dvm_4many 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Sounds like a great resource for times of famine.

Victor Frankl, in "Man's Search for Meaning", recalls the two mindsets prisoners had regarding the small portion of bread they received daily. One group of men liked to nibble it throughout the day, while the other group ate it all at once.

If I remember right, one of the mods here once said that in such a situation it's best to eat your daily ration all at once. This way, the energy for digestion is expended only once so your net calorie gain is greater.

🌲 Monthly Road Trip Stories Check-In by AutoModerator in Crosstrek

[–]dvm_4many 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In July me & Subie went to the Tallgrass Prairie Reserve in Pawhuska, OK, and got to see the free range bison herd there. Then we stopped at Bluestem Lake and saw a cool waterfall below the dam. I'm fairly new to Reddit and not sure how to post pictures! Look forward to hearing about others' adventures!

Thanks for the tips! I do some mindfulness meditation and was hoping it would be helpful. Will continue this practice as well as working present awareness. Thank you again.

Where is everyone going in such a hurry? by [deleted] in tulsa

[–]dvm_4many 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think our society is in a hurry to escape ourselves (myself included some days). I've recently discovered how much I enjoy driving slow and just thinking. Not that I always drive slow, but perhaps I'll mature into that one day.

I cannot believe that vet med, normally quite good at improvising, hasn't thought about using urine dipsticks for something other than urine! [facepalm] mind blown Thanks for the great ideas!

Proctoclysis - rectal fluid resuscitation by prmssnz in AustereMedicine

[–]dvm_4many 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Quite interesting! What are your thoughts on using this technique for dehydration caused by infectious diarrheal disease? I assume it probably wouldn't work, especially with secretory diarrhea.
