It's also helped me manage the pain--physical and emotional--wrought by the cancer in the years since. Qigong also is an excellent stress reducer; after consistent practice life's "slings and arrows" bounce off one like pebbles plinking off a breastplate. Clear 14 years and still practicing every day!<br /><br />The core of my practice is standing post meditation, augmented by simple moving patterns. It's good to keep it simple.

the astrological window for public unrest will form June July this year 2010…so expect something like the 60 s with older folks though this time!

if anyone needs a consultation on "how to train" to optimize your time we can do it on Skype…and I am open to money or barter as there is always something I want! preferably a high speed flying vehicle which can go coast to coast in an hour or so…if only the corporate sector would release some of the new technology and get us off the training wheels of cars and planes…
