Recently I looked at the “Archive” section of my website, curious to read the newsletter blogs from the early weeks of our Qigong classes. I was disappointed to see that the older posts in the archives were identified only by date, with no images or description of their content. Who’d want to look at those?! Happily, my talented and trusty assistant (aka Larry) managed to reinsert the photos and titles of each blog post, making them much more user-friendly.
I recommend browsing through these archives, especially if you are a new subscriber. They tell the story of our group, from the earliest classes during COVID through the present. Perhaps more importantly, they discuss Qigong concepts and practices I teach in our classes, and provide a further insight. For instance, look at the post from Dec. 2, 2024, “The Soft Limit of Our Reach” It reminds us of the wisdom of the “70% rule”, and quotes one of the top scholars of Qigong and Chinese Medicine, Peter Deadman. (Personally, I need to be reminded of that 70 % rule every day.)
If there are topics in Qigong or TCM you’re curious about and would like to see addressed in future newsletters, please write to me (cris@criscaivano.com). I love questions, and always welcome your contributions toward shaping the direction and evolution of our group. Thanks!
