Metabolism changed in practitioner

Healing stories

By Judy Mirczak

I was always hyperactive as a child and took medication (Ritalin) for many years to “control” this condition. Unfortunately, the medication left me with serious problems with my digestion and metabolism and I was unable to keep weight on, even when eating five meals a day. When I began to practice T’ai Chi Chih regularly I noticed many significant changes in my metabolism. I am much calmer now, and although I eat a normal amount of food I have gained at least 15 pounds as my metabolism and weight have both been brought into balance.

Many times at teacher training when a student is giving their presentation, he/she will relate a healing or health benefit from regular practice of T’ai Chi Chih. In fact, the benefit is the very reason they have become T’ai Chi Chih instructors.

What is your story? It doesn’t have to be dramatic. It can be long or short. We just want to hear it and share it with other instructors so they may tell others what T’ai Chi Chih is doing in peoples lives. We are looking for diverse stories which will create an interest in others to try T’ai Chi Chih. What balancing your chi did for you could help someone else having the same situation. Help us to help you learn how T’ai Chi Chih is working in all our lives.
