I thank you from the bottom of my heart, with all of me
for all of your amazing recommendations and 'sungguh berkesan' remedies!
The 'belakang pisau' and 'mandi dengan air basuhan beras' worked magic!
I see them more of, 'after I do this, I will no longer suffer and the pain will leave me. After I do this..' affirmations.
I did not get any attack yesterday and today, alhamdulillah
and I'd like to believe that the day before yesterday was the last attack. Insyallah.
Maybe the six weeks duration is finally over.
Maybe it is really the 'believe in the power of belief'.

Just like some F1 drivers who crash and doctors who fall sick at times,
I am just a yoga instructor who has her issues, who has her bad days, who gets perplexed at times too and who has to 'face the music' like every other responsible human being.
For those constantly leaving toxic comments I did not approve,
if this is your way of venting out your stress (God have mercy on your soul),
I hope you are already feeling better.
If I can state the obvious difference between you and me,
you might always point out the flaw of even the nicest girl or the most beautiful celebrity but I tend to always see the beauty and kindness of a far from attractive person or someone everyone seems to hate.
Toxic people might find me arrogant,
when I am just comfortably confident.
A very positive person I am lucky to have as one of my bestfriends, Juliana (read her beautiful insights in her blog and you'll agree with me) reminded me last week, "Everytime we meet, we always share stories about ourselves. I don't think there is anything we don't know about each other. Are we just full of ourselves? But most importantly, we don't talk bad about other people, that is a good thing right?"
It's only logic.
I choose to spend most of my time around positive and successful people to be affected by their energy. If you choose to be around sick and angry people, you will get sick too and become more angry (to my defense ;), I have been avoiding the phone and almost EVERYONE for the past few weeks to not let them precious people get stressed witnessing me getting stressed. Dailymuscle, I miss our sessions too! Anna-Rina, Henry and Supertall who cannot not live without me around, I wish you a long healthy happy life).
I enjoy teaching yoga and guiding people to extend their mind and body's limit.
I honestly give and share pretty much everything I own and feel.
I celebrate the gift of constantly being strong, balanced and flexible - physically and emotionally.
I see a disease in my body as a billboard to the health of my organs, brain and belief.
I see your anger and hatred as processes you need to go through from what injustice world has done to you or your loved ones.
Really.
I keep stressing this throughout my classes,
'the ultimate goal of yoga is not pain,
but to feel at our very best at every pose, in every breath.'
Holding on to a pain and keep feeling angry during yoga AND life
(since yoga is a lifetime journey and your yoga class doesn't end after Dead Body)
will only you make you sick (in the mind, in the heart), will only attract more negative energy.
Ninie's theory: Pain + Anger = Disease

So (I) learn to keep letting go and to keep forgiving.

Hi Ninie
Great to hear that you are feeling better. Hope everything goes well from now on!
Hugs.:)
I have never yet commented here but I just felt I had to at this point.
This is not me 'venting my stress' because I am probably as calm and enlightened as you say you are but aren't you being just as judgemental as those people who sit in judgment of you when you label them "toxic" just because they don't agree with you? Everyone is entitled to their own opinion, aren't they?
Your post was supposed to reflect how 'enlightened' you are but statements like those point to the exact opposite. IMHO you still have a long way to go.
shiva rea,
i think ninie is responsing to those who sent her all those nasty comments.. it's okay to dislike someone but not to the extend of using harsh and impolite words purposely. and as this is ninie's blog, she has the right to voice out her thought, don't ypu think?
to me, those who came up with bad and negative comments are not only toxic but they are also full of trash. if they think ninie can improve herself, why don't they show her the way using the right method?
but then again, u can never please everyone right? :)
Dear Shiva Rea:
I have n e v e r stated (and felt!) I am 'calm and enlightened' (unless I left the impression hence the assumption?) because I know myself. I know this very yoga instructor, this very Ninie Ahmad who DOES get stressed at times and for I know I have a looooooong way to go: in my yoga journey = life. Doesn't everyone?
If you did follow and read every comment box in my humble blog during the yoga fatwa fiasco in Malaysia late last year, you will know that I did approve every single comment back then, nasty or nice; but as a blogger, I ahve to be responsible over everything I publish. Not only of my blog postings but with my comment box too. Had I continue letting the over-the-top spiteful comments flood; it would have contributed in partly destroying my happy country.
The comments that I do not approve are not simply comments that do not agree of what I blog about, but of comments that reveal my private and personal informations (oh, someone did try to post up my handphone number and house address here, thank Blogger for comment moderation!), comments that use vulgar words and ugly name-calling to yours truly / friend / any name mentioned in my post; and I believe, by moderating them, I have reduced the attraction of more angry and 'toxic' comments. Isn't preventing ourselves to be angry / hate others part of ahimsa (non-violence to the body)?
I myself believe in and live by:
'1. if I don't have anything nice or constructive to say, don't say anything at all'
2. if I don't like something, I will try to change it. If I can't change it, I will change my attitude - that is, stop complaining.'
and I myself apply that when speaking and commenting in other people's blog.
So within this territory, I know it is my calling to pull which energy I want to publish, be read and spread. Energy (prana) is ndestructible. Anger is contagious but so are kindness and good words :)
And just so you know (if you are the real 'calm and enlightened' Shiva Rea), I must say you are one of my biggest inspirations.
Both anonymous:
Surprisingly, I got the loveliest compliments from unnamed commenters this time around.
Relating to what I said in this entry, 'if you can see the beauty and good thing about someone; you are that beautiful and kind yourself because you identify with those familiar qualities with what you own :)'
Anonymous No 1, yes that was me :) (mostly walking at bsc, partly the amazing figure, he hee..)
Anonymous No 2, may someone else say unexpected nice things about you in the nearest time too. We pay it forward ;)
.:rainbeau:. & izza farihana:
Thank you for feeling relieved for me, sayang-sayang. May God bless you with good health dan semoga dipanjangkan kemuliaan hati kalian.
Kalau I cakap tu baby I, percaya tak?
yoga and wellness:
Karin, you always always always wish me health and provide me with the most effective remedy!
I feel your hug really! I hope I can see your beautiful smile again very soon!
hye ninie...

welcome back!
the 'belakang pisau' guy :D
sgt tak percaya !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
*dengan jeritan kuat kerana kedengkian!!!!!*
Great to hear that you're alright & hope u would have peace henceforth. As an yoga instructor it's amazing to hear such things from your side. At the same time, great to hear that you've recovered sooner & faster.
I might add that over the summer and into fall I was majorly into running, and I got up to around 12 miles. I ended up injured (related to running) and ill (unrelated to running) and oddly enough, it was yoga that sustained me during this time. I had to return to full primary, and stick to it daily (I'd been lax about it for awhile, especially while on such a running kic.), and my illness (a life threatening one, actually) retreated, and I defied the doctor's predictions. Now did my recover relate to yoga--who knows. What I do know is that it made me feel sooooo much better, and it was there for me while running wasn't. retreat yoga So just my own story--doesn't necessarily apply to anyone else. I just thought I'd put that out there.
