Ask HN: Who here would be interested in a burnout center?
I'm wondering how prevalent this is and if anyone here would be interested in a kind of burnout recuperation center/getaway/retreat.
This is something I've been giving some thought to and it would involve something similar to the Vipassana Meditation retreats that get posted here at times, except it would be designed and geared to recovery from, and preventing burnout. And you'll be able to talk, of course.
It would involve a structured daily schedule(but not mandatory) of activities, researched and selected based on empirical proof of their benefit towards dealing with stress, burnout and creative blockages. These activities would be daily meditation sessions, light exercise(hiking, yoga, weight training), and a scientifically-designed diet plan to reduce stress and anxiety(in as much as that's possible).
Also, I'm playing with the idea of including a 5-day hike in one of the most beautiful natural parks in the world.
Any thoughts, ideas or suggestions?
