Peru a Divine Appointment

A spiritual journey to reclaim and reconnect with my spiritual self, one of rediscovery, one of search of wisdom and enlightenment and an opportunity for growth.

Why Peru again? As you can see from our old pictures we visited Peru in 2009. It was great family vacation except that Alejandra our older daughter could not accompanied us. Her duties as a performer on In the Heights on Broadway precluded her form making the trip.  Peru is an amazing country. Full of history, art, architecture, plazas and rich multicultural traditions. It also has progressive cosmopolitan sites in Lima the capital. It is a beautiful and organized city. They have great restaurants with outstanding cuisine.

We had an opportunity to visit both the city of Cuzco and The Ancient City of Machu Pichu. This was majestic and exceptional. Both cities are very unique and rich in indigenous Inca’s traditions. The train ride to Machu Pichu was breathtaking. We were surrounded by snow covered Andes Mountains.  The train was following alongside a majestic river. All along the trip we could see some of the ruins from old Inca cities and structure.  Needless to say we were mesmerized by this trip. We promised ourselves to return in two years , in time to be part of the 100 hundred years of the discovery of the lost city of Machu Pichu.

As 2011 approached,  I was contacted by my best friend and male soul mate Dirk Magdahl  to make the trip  with  Carol Master’s group.  Carol is Reiki certified massage therapist. In addition she is an Iron Woman , Tri-athlete, a cyclist a runner a swimmer, a great woman ,friend , mentor an above all a great healer. After meeting her and the beautiful connected ladies in her group it was easy to say: “I am going with them.”

Since January I have be blessed by joining their group to train for the trip. We have met several times to hike and bike. I by myself started to be more committed to my exercise program and better eating habits. I have lost some of my belly weight and reduce my fasting blood sugar from 115 to 84.  I am devoted to develop healthier life styles that we help immediately with controlling my insulin resistance. In the long term I am looking for an happier, healthier and joyful life. Hopefully one with many years to come around my family friends and BFHC patients and staff.
