Qi Gong

It is officially summer. I welcome the picnics, barbecues, and back yard gardening. This is wonderful.

A couple weeks ago I attended a weekend workshop on Jade Woman Qi Gong. This is the first class in the two year teacher training. The class was taught by Madame Liu He, who is truly amazing. I took a few classes from her when I attended the Oregon College of Oriental Medicine and she blew me away then. Now I begin the journey to make Qi Gong part of my life. My goal is to be able to teach classes with in the next year. The Jade Woman form will definitely be in my tool bag. This form is particular for helping women and the female system. It is not limited to women though. It can also be beneficial to men and prostate health. In just a few weeks it has changed my lift. I feel more calm, centered and able to pay attention for longer periods of time. Now I am curious what will happen after a year then two years.
I will keep you posted on my Qi Gong journey.

To your health,
