TAI CHI
Tai chi is about changing our internal environment so that life becomes a joy to live and not a burden to drag into old age and death. It is about helping your body to let go of the past and your mind to slow down and cease churning. Tai chi encourages your internal focus to shift toward cherishing and remembering all that is wonderful in your life. It predisposes you to look forward to ways to make life better, rather than remembering how unsatisfying it has been. Tai chi, with its gentle strength, moves us closer to feeling more truly alive. call for questions 845-562-1911 or email chikungguy@yahoo.com
