I have only popped in for a quick look, will return later. Again thank you for the video links, I looked at them twice and will again. They bring everything so to life, one feels there with you Sylvia.
Great descriptions of your environment, and that you have felt no need to attend the yoga and meditation classes. Because everything around you is the very essence of both. Truly a retreat.
You are doing well to be adjusting to the dogs. I love dogs, have had them most of my life - until recent years. But my daughter’s friend (since school days) is terrified of them. I saw her fear when she was here with our very friendly dogs, so I have some understanding of your dislike of dogs. Must confess I would be a bit wary of stray dogs wandering around though…
How good to hear that you didn’t need the cushion for under your knee, and that the walking is so beneficial. Hopefully Spring will have arrived once you are home and you can keep that up. It is wonderful that this Indian holiday is so beneficial to both of you, in so many respects.
Helen, I am fascinated by your sense of walking on the surface of the earth. Hope you enjoy your Ayurvedic massage as much as last time, or even more so.
I would also love to see a tiger in a natural environment. But only well away from it while high up on a balcony! Perhaps you will do so before you leave.
I hope you have both had a lovely day. It is actually a beautiful sunny day here and not too cold… Hopefully it continues so for the Edinburgh gathering of TPers - especially cauldrifed Saffie! (ie: someone who is prone to feeling the cold easily)
(By the way Saffie, if you read this I sent you a PM but perhaps your file is full???)
With love
