Well when I listened to "Meeting Asciepius" the first person that came to my mind was my great aunt Sarah. She died about 10 years ago. She was 70 something and was not able to hear or talk. She had several brothers and sisters that were born that way. They had their own sign language that they made up for themselves. I always had a special bond with Sarah. She always seemed wise to me and she was good to everyone. She had the sweetest turn about her. During this exercise I saw her wading the ocean, happy. I could feel her spirit and it made me happy. I really enjoyed this exercise, it brought back some very good memories. I also feel lighter in spirit myself.

"One cannot lead another where one has not gone himself"
To me I think this means that you cannot show or tell someone to do something that you do not believe in or use yourself. If you are going to tell other people to practice integral medicine you should practice it yourself. I know with what I have learned from the lessons it has made me a better person and other people can see that in me. I have had co-worker's tell me that I look happy and sunny. It feels good when other people can see it in you.
