How Has TCC Affected My Life?

A year ago I’d never heard of Tai Chi Chih. Can you imagine that? I became interested for two reasons. I’d suffered some great personal tragedies and needed something to focus on besides grief. The second reason was because it was so inexpensive (and that’s been a great plus during these times).

I practice daily and look forward to each practice because I never know what the Chi has in store. Very recently, while doing Daughter on the Mountain Top, the Chi felt as large as a basketball. I was amazed. It had never felt that big before. So I thought that I must be doing the movement pretty well to get the energy so built up. TCC has also provided me with much more energy internally and externally, and I really think that this helped a surgical incision heal much more quickly. I’ve also gotten more mundane things accomplished in everyday life. Of course, having a kind and interesting instructor has kept me focused and inspired, and I’m looking forward to the intermediate class in the autumn and the future – to see what other benefits and surprises “the effort of no effort” will bring.
