Re: Hello
gratefully, I have not had physical ailments which brought me to mb (but that is not to say I am 100% healthy!!!!!!) came from Fit for Life, was looking for new recipes, found a cooking class, didn't care that it was mb, but during the course, fell in love with the food and the philosophy. and been looking for more and more growth ever since - found different teachers, books, created a support group that met every week with potlucks and discussions for three years, and been on several discussion sites - been discouraged, been elated, great adventure.
and talking about adventure, last night we had the privilege of having a guest mb teacher and counselor come to our area and gave us a talk - a very enlightening talk on Chinese medicine - and he ails from Asheville, NC - now I realize all states in America are not tiny, but at least he's from the same state. Would be amazing if you live near him. I would defintely check him out - Michael Rossoff - www.michaelrossoff.com He's written a very controversial article in Macrobiotics Today a few years back - and in my opinion, he's got his feet well grounded and a pleasure to learn from.

Re: Hello
That's too cool, Klara. Check it out, I will.
Asheville is not really far from me, about 1 1/2 hrs I think. A mountaintown well known for mothernature types. Where I live it is all fried chicken, bbq, & Bud Lite but things are changing.

Re: Hello
I spoke to Michael - he's going to Italy from here, and will be back home on the 16th. He says you can always call, there's always someone who can take your call, but you can talk to him on the 16th.
Let us know how it goes. His explanation of energy flow and the Chinese take on health made a lot of sense. Klara

Re: Hello
This morning I read the first two of Michaels posted articles and most of the 3rd one titled Macrobiotics at a Crossroads. I found the last one invaluable. He addressed alot of thoughts I had-- from fear , restrictions & "guidlines", These are really good articles, balanced and undogmatic.
I appreciate that he is near by. At present I haven't any questions really. I will wait and maybe I'll visit them sometime.
