Lunch

This was lunch today, dinner is smaller. Sometimes one has second helpings though. All the food is vegetarian Ayurvedic. Not vegan as one is encouraged to drink hot milk in the morning and before bed. The good is quite bland but meant to be good for detoxifying. All the food is cooked, but one can have fruit. No alcohol or coffee of course!!

Today I saw Dr Raju again and came back feeling as good as I have in ages. He was sitting cross legged on a cloth covered bench in a tiny waiting room lined with cane chairs. You just moved along as it was your turn. A few days ago he gave me a special medicine that he devises especially for each individual called smriti. It is a kind of a pleasant tasting paste of which you have a teaspoon each morning first thing. It is designed to take your body back to the memory of when you were born so the body knows what it is like to be healthy. I have to take it for as long as I can afford it (just over $100 month). I like this sort of approach as I've long thought that my blood pressure was to do with very early anxiety. I recently downloaded a book by Robin Karr-Morse called Scared Sick. It is interesting to join the dots and see how the Smriti makes so much sense.
