I get all kinds of fun and useful videos on WeChat (Chinese Social Media). They have a good translation feature, of course it’s AI but it’s better than most. I saw this recently and knew I had to make a screen recording and share it with you! The Translation: “The ‘Fun and Trendy Classes’ program by the Education Trade Union of Jinshan District — a favorite among teachers!” Have a look to brighten your heart and know that you actually are “Fun and Trendy!” Here is the short screen recording - turn your audio up!

Demystify the hip joints! Here is a useful series from Anatomy Lab found on YouTube for better understanding the make up and mechanics of the hips. Getting an overview of the important part of you body will aid you in your Tai Chi & Qigong actives and more! Start here: Watch the Video and watch more of the links on abduction, adduction etc.

And in other news - I’m always keeping my eyes peeled for uplifting stories and shows. I ran across this one and you might be interested too: Born to be Wild on Apple. Humanity at its finest!

On a side note - As you look around for interesting health tips, I’m sure you’ve noticed the uptick in AI promoting “Tai Chi Walking.” These are easy to spot as they promise everything from 6 pack abs to loosing a bunch of weight. This actually IS fake news. Tai Chi and Qigong have been long studied (I’ve been a part of many of these studies) and there is definitely proven efficacy for Balance, Blood Pressure, Stress, Neurological Issues and much much more. But, 6 pack abs in 4 weeks is not one of them, nor is rapid weight loss. Now, a good mind body connection is definitely possible. What you do with that is up to you. See you on the REAL floor.
