Meditation helped me tremendously, I took a class 3-4 months ago ust to see what it is all about. I would say it requires hard work &persistence, but considering ecen 3-4 minutes all one needs to spend each day(in the beginning may be) it is really sth we all could do. Selichan, I totally agree yoga is more than strecthing. Funny thing is that before the treatment, like 3 years ago or so, I did yoga3-4 months but never felt like this back then--it was more like streching for me--but now, it feels like home, really. I sometimes cry during some poses, oh my! I think it is a great way of being. Though, it is powerful, and I heard it here from others that it might be challenging. I tried Kundalini  once a week for about 2 months as well, and I must say it did make me dizzy, really. I do believe it is a good way of healing the body, but when we are under this protocol it might reverse sth, or become too powerful as we are very sensitive now. I do it once a month or so now. Sure, I can practice other yogas but sweating makes me feel good, and I will tell Matia next time I talk to her of course.
Walking is great, I remember Matia telling me one time to walk looking at the blue sky if I wasn't able to do any other exercise. Fresh air, as you said and moving the body a bit. Haha speaking up&diasgreeing are common I think, for those times we haven't spoken up for! It is challenging though, I found myself not recognizing myself often times, but I love living this way--respecting to own self. I hope you can move forward to list 3 as quick as you want, but enjoy list 2 while you can. It is sometimes boring to eat the same things but after being used to it, simple sounds good&delicious. I am not very familiar with the list, so I can't recommend any recipe (I have a different diet than lists) but really when you are in the kitchen just be creative and use whatever you can eat, I cook for myself, everyday. and sometimes just love mixing the stuff &experimenting as I am the only one eating it at the end.:) You might find really delicious recipes yourself. Just one example, I startd to eat lots of swiss&green chards: I cook them with olive oil and salt, and kind of cook a bit more until it gets a bit burned--sometimes add it to red meat, hmm it is really delicious, esp  with some quinoa!.
I hope the treatment's being slow desn't discourage you. It is so slow, but the body is way smarter than we think-sometimes we need to push a bit and it finds its own way; if we push way too hard, it pulls itself back-- when we listen we can understand this . So listening is good. And heartburns is something I used to have, and still have --I get anxious, and I breathe so deeply--or try to mediate. It helps, really. For me the hardest part was this last winter, emotionally. Now when I think back then, I feel like I was in a dark but peaceful tunnel, a place I did not even know it existed before--and when I think I can't believe how emotional I was!!! I am so grateful I had those feelings I didnt even know I could have. It is such a beautiful thing to have more experience in this lifetime, really. Of course, suffering is not something we want --though it makes us grow. Hopefully we al will get back to healthy way of life not forgetting what we have been through, and not forgetting the lessons we take.
