Embracing Seijaku

Positive feedback on Seijaku practice has been coming from those just beginning to explore it as well as those who learned it many years ago. Repeatedly I hear from teachers who are finding it richer and more potent than ever. This isn’t surprising. When Justin Stone first taught this practice to TCC teachers in November, 1986, he said the most important event in his life was discovering Seijaku. That is a powerful statement.

Justin also said that starting Seijaku was a “key turning point” in both his health and jazz piano playing. He had had triple by-pass surgery, after which his surgeon said his heart was good for another five, maybe ten years. After just two years of practicing, Justin said at a 1989 course in Monterey, California, that “Seijaku has given me the confidence to look forward to many years of continued health and strength.” The practice let Justin forward to many more years of health and strength, which was obviously well placed, since his heart has lasted twenty years longer than the surgeon predicted. This is a form of health insurance we cannot only afford, but would be wise to utilize.

We know that the benefits of practicing TCC come from circulating and balancing the Chi. Seijaku greatly steps up the flow, so it naturally accelerates the resulting health, creativity and spiritual benefits. Try it and see for yourself. If you have practiced TCC for at least a year and received benefits from it, I encourage you to also learn and practice this advanced form. You can learn from Justin’s Seijaku DVD and from accredited teachers listed in the teacher directory with a “yes” in the far right hand column. If you are a TCC teacher who has taught for at least a year, it’s appropriate for you to learn Seijaku and prepare for accreditation next year. If you are a Seijaku teacher who hasn’t practiced for a while, I sincerely recommend that you re-visit it and see what it has to offer you at this time. You are invited to join us for the Portland conference in July 2012 and stay for the Seijaku accreditation course. You’ll be glad you did.
