A mí la meditación me permite conectarme un poco más conmigo mismo, saber un poco quien soy.
A inicios del año pasado pasé por unos problemas bastante difíciles que me debilitaron física y emocionalmente, me deprimí y me estresé mucho. Tenía dolores insoportables en el cuerpo, sobre todo en la espalda baja, cervicales y dolores de cabeza, que no me pasaban con ningún medicamento.
One year ago I was a totally different person, who was easily affected by her environment. I let myself absorb everything that was surrounding me, both the bad and the good.
