Dear Joey,

I will think warmly for you  Grin hope the "energy" passes some heat to you.

Do you like raw ginger?

If you wash a piece of ginger clean and then use a knife to shave off the "knots, wrinkles etc..." but keep as much of the smooth skin as possible. Then wash it again.

Then you can slice it thin (~ 10 pages thick), and put a few slices in a hot cup of water. Then drink it, it will help you to stay warm and counter the cold inside of you.

If you feel you are catching a cold, sinus is stuffy or throat have mucus, then you can keep a slice in your mouth and slowly bite down to let the juice cover the inside of the mouth and throat (spit out the fiber/skin when it is no longer juicing, if you have a weak stomach, else swallowing it is fine). It helps sometimes. (but don't overdo it, and stop if you feel it makes you cough). And after 2-4 slices, take a spoonful of honey or a cup of warm water.


Yes, these 2 books complement each other. But I think we will need to find 3-5 more books to really complete this area (and will need to skip Buddhist symbols... they may have more then all the other areas put together...).

Stay warm,
David
