In May 2012, I traveled thousands of miles from my home in North America to Brazil, to be a speaker at several different speaking engagements in the country.

“Mortal mind is the worst foe of the body, while divine Mind is its best friend,” wrote Mary Baker Eddy, the Discoverer and Founder of Christian Science, on page 176 in her seminal work, Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures.
