Do your best! Don’t stress!

Do your best! Don’t stress!
The first and perhaps most important benefit from practicing any forms of QiGong is stress reduction. We start to yawn, breathe easier, slow down and open up to new possibilities. One of those possibilities is that life doesn’t have to be so difficult. We can enter into an experiment with the energy that sustains all life and discover it will sustain us too, today, in the middle of whatever story that has us all tied up.

So begin where you can, with whatever you know. Never been to a class? Don’t have time? Well thanks for taking the time to read this! Haola! (All is well, so be it!) Jump over to my YouTube channel (link on the left) and explore, see someone moving, try it yourself. Copy and experiment.

If you are practicing a form I’ve taught you, awesome! Don’t stress. Do your best. I was up in Oregon House teaching on Sunday and quite a large number of students there are dedicated daily practitioners. They are getting the kind of results we all wish for. AND we discovered that some of the folks who had gotten superior results were technically doing it “wrong”. Wrong form, right attitude. Wow, and now that we made the form adjustments, the chi (Qi) will be flowing even stronger.

The point is, the universe knows when you are doing your best. You can’t do any better than your best. If you’re not feeling well, your best may very well be to lie in bed and watch the video imagining you are practicing. Don’t give yourself a hard time (that thwarts the chi flow!), Relax! Enjoy! That’s the way the chi loves to flow!

Something is better than nothing, experimenting is better than nothing. Give your practice a sincere best effort and you’ll be stunned at the results.

The next ten days I will be assisting my teacher Mingtong Gu at an Intensive Healing Retreat in Sonoma. I’m hoping to capture some of what opens up for me here in the blog… If you’d like me to send you some healing energy from this powerful QiField, just ask!!
Haola!
