Recovering from Carcinoid
Patricia Valencia, Ridgefield center, NJ
I was diagnosed with a Carcinoid tumor and a large hiatal hernia. The news was devastating. Not only that, I had other disabilities from prior accidents and I had also been dealing with depression for several years. After a month of depression and self-pity, I decided to go back to practicing Dahn Yoga. I came back to the Ridgefield Body & Brain Center, where they remembered and welcomed me. I started taking Private Sessions, doing the intestinal exercises they teach, and following a macrobiotic diet. It all helps! As of February 18, I had lost a 25 pounds, and some of the Carcinoid symptoms have diminished or virtually disappeared. There is a lot more progress to be made, but I am sure that my daily practice of Dahn Yoga and a new mindset will continue to help me even more. I am so thankful that I have guidance on how to manage my physical, mental, and spiritual ailments.
