Namaste Lovely Teacher Ananda,
Greetings from London� the place I�ve always dreamed of living in. It�s been 6 weeks since I arrived, and suddenly I feel like a child again. New place, new environment, new culture, so many unfamiliar things happening at once. Sometimes I feel so happy for living my dream, other times I feel like packing my bag home to where I feel so comfortable and familiar with.
But I remind myself the reason I left h(om)e was to practice Yoga. There are many �dragons� inside me which I need to face and I�m chipping at them, one step at a time. Some days my mind seem so crystal clear, and next it�s playing tricks on me by mindless chattering. And I keep telling myself, �one step at a time�.
Your last e-mail to me kept me strong. I THANK YOU for your blessings and unconditional love � both you and Coach. Please know that your Grace has not gone unnoticed or dismissed. I don�t say this often enough, but your teachings and practices really are torching the blaze towards enlightenment for many of us. Ripples make waves.
I have something amazing to tell you. I have been eating SR Herbs consistently as I have promised. Although I have not rocket into Phase 2, I know the herbs are working their magic. My body has coped with the English weather much better than my BF and I had expected. I did not experience cracking skin as I did in May when I came for a short holiday, my weight remains stable, no runny noses or swollen eyes and the best of it all, I had my first menstruation yesterday (without the aid of drugs) since October 2004!!! That was nearly one and a half years ago. I literally jumped for joy, I really did.
As Coach said in DL, �That is a classic, classic example of what Dr. Chen means when he says, “Just eat the herbs and the point of weakness in your body will eventually become strengthen by the holistic effect of the herbs.” This is precisely what you experienced. Instead of specifically trying to “fix what was wrong,” you just kept Cleansing and Supporting until the weakness left.�
I just wanted to share the g(o)od news. I must go now, my time on the internet is up. Thank you for loving me. I love you too.
Blessings,
