Back from China........I am back with a renewed vigor and an increased appreciation of what Tai-chi has to offer for me and my students....The good news is that anyone can get the benefits of Taiji/Qigong regardless of your age-health or abilities.....The bad news for some is that YOU have to do it daily and try to enjoy what you are doing...It is not a job to help your health.It is a privilege.The next time you are up and moving and breathing--take a moment and really appreciate that you are lucky that you can...the object of taijichuan and Qigong is to create a sense of well being and to feel good.......The masters say "be consistent for a 100 days and it will become a habit".....I wish all my friends could see all the people in China doing some kind of exercise every morning in the parks.(from 9 to 90)and they are having fun playing with all their friends...Remember discipline is the ability to obey yourself...As they say-try it you will like it,and its free.......Be safe and enjoy the holidays......
