Guiding Me Through

Tai Chi Chih (TCC) has changed my life in many wonderful ways. There is a calmness, a settling of my spirit that I had never experienced. It has guided me through a number of traumatic events. About six months after I began my TCC practice, I was able to decrease my blood pressure medication and just recently, my doctor instructed me to again reduce the amount.

Just before Thanksgiving last year, I was plagued by recurring visions of a traumatic experience. With TCC practice, I refocused and was able to envision everyone involved as safe and well. I am growing in my practice and learning so much from my teacher, Marie. Learning to be in the present has been a wonderful tool that I used when I recently had to undergo radiation for a skin cancer on my scalp. I approached it in a calming way and the stillness was very comforting. I know that TCC will be a force in my life going forward. I wish I had found it sooner.
