I used to work as a technician of Ayurvedic therapies at an Ayurvedic medical center in Potomac MD. I did massage, Shirodahrah, colon cleansing and much more. Because I was sensitive I was very lonely. It seems that the work one does on a path of self discovery can be exceedingly alienating… and people tend to keep to themselves as they engage it on deeper levels. Learned tons!
That is awesome! What sort of things did you learn, and what techniques did you find worked best for you?
