Wheatgrass in my eyes and nose
Upon leaving Haiti, I realized I'll miss little Wood so much. He has become my good friend. I would pick him up from his house, bathe him and take him around town all the people asking if he was mine. How amazing when little kids run up to you full of joy. Ah, I love him.
When I arrived in San Juan, I slept comfortably on the airport floor for the night with my thermarest, nestled in my sleeping bag. In the morning, I waited for my flight to Mayaguez. There didn't seem to be anyone around. I wondered if I was at the wrong gate. Suddenly someone called my name. "Your plane is ready to board" "My plane?, Am I the only passenger?" "Yes,in fact, you are!" "Can I sit in the front?" "Yes you can".
and so, I boarded my very own airplane. An entire airplane to myself!! Just me and the pilot chillin in the cockpit!! I became the co-pilot as we swooped below the clouds and he described the coast line to me. How lucky!!
Spending the last few days at the Ann Wigmore Institute in Puerto Rico has opened my heart, soul and mind to the incredible reality of life giving living foods. Upon waking at dawn, we stretch and indulge in relaxing yoga on the beach, listening to the waves crash - especially a little more furiously now that winds from Hurricane Issac are about to pass through. Before breakfast we juice our own wheatgrass and have a healthy 2 ounces, cleansing our system and nourishing our bodies the way Dr. Ann knew best. I have been awed by the studies we have learned here. About the body and how we assimilate foods. Our digestive systems and the tiny micro-organisms inside that are constantly trying to stay alkaline, constantly trying to stay in balance. Did you know that all disease is just a symptom of inbalance? Our beautiful, radiating teacher, Lalita Sales has bestowed upon us a gift. The unique revelation that eating living foods can cure almost any disease and that we can even grow these foods, such as sunflower sprouts and buckwheat lettuce and make saurkraut and fermented foods in our own homes all year round. We have the power to heal ourselves. You have the power to heal yourself.
