English to Spanish: 4 Tips for Slowing Down to Reduce Stress Detailed field: Psychology
Source text - English 4 Tips for Slowing Down to Reduce Stress
Reduce anxiety by embracing the spirit of The Slow Internet Movement.
In April, NPR ran a story titled, "The Slow Internet Movement."
It reported that hipster cities like Portland, Oregon are sprouting Internet
cafés that only offer dial-up access to the web. In these cafés you can order
your coffee and spend four hours checking your email, all for .99 an hour."
But the story didn't just run in April. It ran on April 1st and was NPR's little
April Fools joke at the expense of gullible people like me.
It got me thinking though. Life would be less stressful and my anxiety levels would be greatly reduced if I embraced the spirit of The Slow Internet Movement. So here are four tips for slowing down.
1. Double the time you think it will take to complete a task. How often do you clock in at or under the time you've allotted for a task? I rarely do.
2. Consciously perform tasks in slow motion. Whatever you're doing at the moment, slow it down by 25%, whether it's thinking, typing on a keyboard, surfing the Internet, running (excuse that unfortunate word) an errand, or cleaning the house.
3. Stimulate your parasympathetic nervous system. When the sympathetic nervous system is aroused, it puts us on high alert, sometimes called the "fight-or-flight" response. The sympathetic nervous system is necessary to our survival because it enables us to respond quickly when there's a threat. By contrast, when the parasympathetic nervous system is aroused, it produces a feeling of relaxation and calm in the mind and the body.
4. No multitasking. (Okay, okay: less multitasking.) Korean Zen master Seung Sahn liked to tell his students, "When reading, only read. When eating, only eat. When thinking, only think." (…)

Translation - Spanish 4 Consejos para desacelerarnos y reducir el estrés
Disminuir la ansiedad adoptando el espíritu del “Movimiento de Internet lenta”.
En abril, NPR emitió una historia titulada “El movimiento de Internet lenta”.
Hablaba de que ciudades “hipster” como Portland u Oregon están sembradas de cibercafés que solo ofrecen conexión telefónica para acceder a la red. En estos locales se puede pedir un café y pasar cuatro horas revisando nuestro correo electrónico, todo por USD 0,99 la hora.
Pero la historia no solo se emitió en abril, sino el 1ro de abril, y fue una pequeña broma de “Día de los inocentes” de parte de NPR a costa de incautos como yo.
De todos modos, me dejó pensando. La vida sería menos estresante y mis niveles de ansiedad se verían enormemente reducidos si yo adoptara el espíritu del “Movimiento de Internet lenta”. Por eso, aquí van cuatro consejos para reducir un poco el ritmo:
1. Calcule el doble del tiempo que cree que le tomará una tarea. ¿Cuántas veces ocupa el tiempo justo o incluso menos para realizar una tarea? Yo lo hago muy raramente.
2. Haga las cosas en cámara lenta, deliberadamente. Lo que sea que esté haciendo en este momento, reduzca la velocidad en un 25%, ya sea pensar, escribir a máquina, navegar por Internet, hacer los mandados o limpiar la casa.
3. Estimule su Sistema nervioso parasimpático. Cuando el sistema nervioso simpático se activa nos pone en un alto estado de alerta, llamado muchas veces “lucha o corre”. Este sistema es necesario para nuestra supervivencia ya que nos permite responder rápidamente cuando existe una amenaza. Por el contrario, cuando es el sistema parasimpático el que se activa, produce una sensación de relajación y calma tanto en la mente como en el cuerpo.
4. Nada de multitarea (Bueno, menos multitarea) El maestro coreano zen, Seung Sahn, gustaba de decir a sus alumnos: “cuando estén leyendo, solo lean”, cuando estén comiendo, solo coman”, “cuando estén pensando, solo piensen” (…)

Bio
As a dedicated student pursuing a degree in translation, I am eager to apply my language skills and knowledge to a professional setting. While I may not have direct working experience in the field, I have actively engaged in translation projects during my studies, refining my linguistic abilities and cultural understanding. Through coursework and extracurricular activities, I have developed a strong foundation in translation techniques and have consistently demonstrated a meticulous attention to detail. I am confident in my ability to quickly adapt to new challenges and deliver accurate and culturally appropriate translations.
