Hi Walter:
I like your spunk getting those masters to finally pitch in and help you. I think you have potential to be an apprentice for Donald Trump!
You've got plenty of good advice here from Gallen and Anita and that Level I manual. Just sit with the manual from time to time and enjoy re-reading it. There is so much there which changes the way you understand it over time as you progress.
I was in Peru last week with a team of people and we all came down with gastrointestinal problems from bad food or water. Since we were in the land of the Incas, who worshipped the sun, I visualized the sun coming into my lower Dantian and I was the first in my group to bounce back. I then visualized the sun helping my team mates and we were all fit as fiddles in no time.
I would only add to keep it simple, stick to the basics and put in the time each day. You are on your way and don't forget to help others as you go.
Love,
Agent B
