Link McElvenny was practicing in an ashram, meditating and chanting, and offering service as a kitchenhand and later a manager of the kitchen.

Link took his role seriously - perhaps a little too seriously, pushing himself hard and burning the candle at both ends. With a combination of factors - his autoexigence, a parasite, and other imbalances - his health started to deteriorate. His weight dropped to under 110 pounds, severely underweight for his height.

He decided to leave the ashram, returning to Australia to recuperate - a difficult blow to his ego to depart in those circumstances.

He started eating well again, and his health improved with the support of his family. Unfortunately, that was not his only challenge on his return to health.

Listen to hear Link’s story in the first part of this interview!
