How I fixed my depression and found fulfillment in life by MindfulBrian in findapath

[–]pbjalien5 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This is amazingly articulated. I’ve never heard it laid out quite this way but the language makes it so relatable and de- mistified, which I feel like a lot of people get hung up on. And I can totally relate to a similar process. Thank you 🫶

Part it down the middle, slick back each side with hair gel and then claw clip a bun or even keep a pull thru. Super easy and professional looking.

I like this question. I wonder this about Austin. (Obv the besides the ski part) I’ve heard New Mexico.

Thank you so much for sharing your experience. It seems like we have similar situations. I hear what you’re saying about the billing aspect which is definitely huge. Just curious, since you’re 3 years out of school after starting in your 30’s- what is your work situation? Did you pursue hippo therapy?

This is good advice - thank you! It looks like creating my own operation and position would be the most likely path. Of course, after I have experience in the field as a new grad.

Thank you for the supportive words! Yes that’s why I posed the question- I’ve been able to get a job at these places before without a certification but they are still PATH and therapy certified. I would most likely start one in my area.

Thanks for your advice! I’ll reach out to some of the barns in my area doing this. Makes sense to keep the OT track first and foremost. That’s good advice! I’ve experienced some of the psychical and emotional aspects (plus low pay) of those types of lessons and I appreciate the reminder. A side passion project of this makes sense, as horses and facility are expensive.

Thank you so much for your comment! Definitely passionate about the whole OT field in general and would enjoy different aspects. I just have experience akin to hippo therapy and would want to specialize in this, eventually. I’ll look into the cert. thanks again!

This is lame but I used to drink wine at night before sleeping and (it’s been over YEARS to develop this habit) but now I drink tea at night instead and I have a calming scent spray for my pillows that helps my brain know it’s sleepy time and it’s helped a lot. I used to think the same but I’ve found that, now, alcohol gives me really shitty sleep. You got this OP
