ChiKungPlayI consider myself a Tai Chi / Chi Kung wayfarer...
way�far�er Traveling slowly, on foot, taking in the local sights and sounds, I often happen upon fellow travellers. Our paths meet, and we walk a few days together before we part company and continue our individual journeys.
I would appreciate hearing directly from the participants or observers any impressions and take-aways from the Chi Kung play. I would also be grateful to anyone willing to elaborate on the observations I made above.
* I learned that I am capable of early rising for Chi Kung and Tai Chi. Usually I play at night. I appreciate your early rising. I don't think I would have been able to participate in evening sessions. I WILL bring warmer cloths for morning sessions if we have them next year. Again I puzzle, how can the calming effects of Chi Kung play be so immediate? These experiences have happened to me often enough that I just accept them. I used some of our practice at 0415 today. I was having problems sleeping. I finally found a place where I was "clenching" muscles. I went there, relaxed them, and went back to sleep. DonGray 2004.11.16 Ira, Your 'playing' had a big impact on me. It gave me the opportunity to try something new, without pressure or need to be 'good'. You were easy and fun to work/play with. This 'play' also gave me a peak into how such practice might help me to feel better physically. I have been in email contact with a coach... we are now playing phone tag. Anyway, I want to publicly say "Thanks". DianeGibson (PS I couldn't find your email address anywhere on this site. Would you be willing to send me a message, so we can discuss further?) Diane, Yes, I wish to talk to you as well. I added my email address to IraWeinstein. I'll dig up your email and send you a message. Ira
