bibliomonk is on a distinguished road
It's been a short while, but I have drastically cut down on the fruit and tofu products -- there's been somewhat of a positive improvement. I've been really enjoying a rice cooker (with steaming tray) that I bought myself, which makes staple meals easy and delicious.

Quick question: What is the macro philosophy about the taking of supplements during the healing period. I'm particularly thinking of fish oil supplements to hit upon the things you [Nancy] were talking about. I think it would be a great help but I would never want to cook an animal product and eating out on a regular basis doesn't fit into my budget / scheduele. And I guess this question extends for general multivitamins, calcium & magnesium, and the B complex which are said to be helpful for people with an emotional imbalance. (I suppose a follow up question might be - are there any macro friendly brands one could recommend?)

Thank you all for the encouraging words, kindness, and practical advice. I came upon some sort of conclusion the other day that aside from all the spiritual and dietary paths you can follow the one thing everybody needs to nourish themselves with is a sense of closeness, love, and connectness with other people; all the meditating in the world isn't worth anything if you still don't smile and enjoy yourself now and then!

I imagine that people with a proclivity towards timidness have problems in those areas, too, so when I come across some genuine support like I've received here I'm really appreciative and touched.

Thank you very much.
