lisoosh Posted April 26, 2020 Hello all! It's really nice to find this forum. I'm not sure, is this the right place to post the introduction? I hope so! Happy to be corrected if needed My name is Lisa, I'm usually a New Yorker, sometimes in Israel, now living in Istanbul... living out these strange pandemic times. And I came to this forum because I'm looking to connect to old qi gong practices. I'm recovering from Corona and so I'm rather weak, but I miss some of these gentle practices. I practiced for a few years at the Chu Tai Chi center in NY, the morning Eternal Spring classes and some individual Tai Chi and Nei Kung classes. And, I used to be in acupuncture school in NY (now on hold) so took many qi gong classes there. I guess my main home practices these days are meditation (from a lot of Vipassana courses and other teachers) and hoping to go back to yoga when I am stronger. My main hope for this forum is to get a few pointers or hints to jog my memory about the Eternal Spring Chi Kung forms. If anyone here is familiar with them, I'd so love to connect with you and be reminded!! Best wishes to all. I feel this is a big transformation time in all of our journeys. Hope we pass it with warmth and kindness. L Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
