Hello world!

Just finished meditating for 24 hours. Yes, me chatty Cathy. The spiritual surgery took about 45 minutes and involved sitting quietly in the current room with our bare feet on the floor, left hand open, and right hand over the heart. There were a bunch of prayers said in Portugese.
Taxied back to pousada and meditated/slept all day and night. I did eat meals but alone in my room. Kept looking longingly and lovingly at my blackberry and iPad. It was so tempting I had to put them away. Missed my scrabble games with Shelley! Keep trying to see if I feel different or have shafts of light streaming out of me but I don't. Some people really feel different. I can only say that I feel energized. But u would too if all u did was sleep and eat for a day in a cell-like room. I am so freaking happy to be out of my room and talking! Perhaps I need to put my whole foot in the Kool Aid instead of just my big toe.

After lunch today I have to sit in the "current" room for 3 hours. That's gonna be a tough one for me. They refer to it as the spiritual washing machine. Start bringing some of ur photos today so be open and aware! Love ya! Xxxxoooo
