What is Advanced T’ai Chi Chih

Susan Webster, El Cajon, CA

Seijaku, “serenity in the midst of activity”! However, one who practices Seijaku goes way beyond serenity. It takes you to a totally new dimension of greater awareness, personal evolution, deep awakening, and it develops a newer ‘softness’ in one’s own TCC practice.

I learned Seijaku many years ago from Justin, and ‘dabbled’ with it a little through the years. After reviewing it at the teachers’ conference in August, I decided it was time to get serious with it. I began by adding a few Seijaku moves to my regular TCC practice and as I added more and more I began to realize how much I have ‘cheated’ myself over the years! I think it was so powerful for me when I first learned it, that it scared me, but incorporating it into my TCC practice worked very well for me. It has made me understand what Justin means when he says “Practice of Seijaku is like turning a 100 watt light bulb into a 1,000 watt light bulb.”

What an absolute difference it has made in my life. The most profound and visible is my weight loss. I have lost about 15 pounds since I began a regular practice of Seijaku and I am eating just as much, if not more that I ever have before. A very good friend of mine came to see me this past week and said, “Look at you, you are skinny and so full of light! You Look Radiantly Beautiful!” She had seen me only three weeks before and she cannot believe the difference in my appearance.

All I know is there is a big change in my body and my spirit and I LOVE IT!

Thank you Justin for continuing to share Seijaku with us. I encourage all who are not practicing to start and all who have not taken Seijaku to get accredited this year and practice it! (See Calendar for February 17-19 Seijaku Course in San Diego, CA)
