Rishakesh-by tina

so we have been at the ashram for about a week and a half doing yoga and just really taking it easy. it has been really cold and there is no central heating so it def. sucks, but it gets really warm in the middle of the day so we soak it up as we can. we have also met some really awesome people here at the ashram, a girl from Sweden, several people from Canada, and there is this one guy from Monterrey but he grew up in Fiji so but we ar the only girls from SF and so everyone calls us the girls from cali!

we had a very relaxing christmas and new year and the restaurant that we went to eat at for christmas dinner actually had a tiny christmas tree with little balloons on it as ornaments! we have met so many amazing people here from all over as well, and it has been so great getting to know these diff. people and talk to them about all there diff. experiences and be able to relate ur experiences together. there is so much good energy and love here it is so refreshing. it is def. something u can't quite explain so i encourage u all, get to india at some point in ur life! i have also been receiving reiki healing from this amazing woman from texas who has lived here for the past 4 years and is a reiki master. and what it is, is basically energy healing for physical and emotional pain, and for all of u that know about my back it is unreal how much it is helping. i am so excited to learn how to do it myself when i get back and continue the healing and help those who want it!
