As I’m working on a proposal to possibly deliver my new Chair Chi Training Program to a major educational institution, I’ve discovered I’ve delivered over 180 workshops in 12 months.
That’s alot of workshops!
Tai Chi: A Sense of Achievement
Six days a week I practice my ’embrace the tree’ posture for 20 minutes and as soon as I finish I always feel I’ve achieved something worthwhile. From Monday to Friday I start practicing at 6.30am and on a Saturday, practice a bit later in the morning.
Chair Chi: Bravo! Bravo!
Well, that was a nice response I received after finishing a Chair Chi session for an aged care centre today.
One elderly lady, who has limited English, and of an Italian background, applauded and shouted ‘Bravo, Bravo’.
It felt good to be able to help her feel energised, as well as the other residents who attended my session. I feel if I can make a small difference in their lives then it is well worth running these sessions.
Tai Chi Relaxation: Scan and Breathe
Here’s a way of relaxing the body when you are practicing standing postures such as Embrace the Tree.
- Scan your entire body and check for any tense muscles
- If you discover a tense muscle direct your attention to it and then breathe into it and exhale
- As you exhale, feel the muscle completely relax
Tiny Tai Chi
I was standing in line at a supermarket and decided to do some Tai Chi training while waiting to be served.
Obviously a weapons form was out of the question so I decided to do some tiny Tai Chi practice. I bent my knees slightly and adopted a standing posture. No one could see what I was doing as the posture was high and it looked like I was just standing there like the others in line.
