[QUOTE="Juicyj, post: 1617474, member: 53162"] Hi [USER=132520]@McOwarth[/USER] I haven't tried a Gong Bath - but a few years ago I used to practice meditation with a Buddhist group and the sessions lasted 1.5 hours, a few times I had to treat for a hypo without any novorapid on board (sessions were before lunch) - I simply put it down to being in such a relaxed state of mind that I didn't have any 'stress hormones' in play, so without any resistance my levels would tend to run lower. The only way to successfully manage it is to either snack before the session and reduce your bolus, or to test every hour -which kind of defeats the deep relaxation experience but it's best to be safe than hypo.
