For those who reflect on themselves, everything they encounter is medicine. For those who attack others, every thought is a weapon. One is the way to initiate all good, one is a way to deepen all evil. They are as far apart as sky and earth.

The solstice approaches on little cat's feet ~

You are all invited to join me a week from tonight from 6:45 - 8pm PST for a free online Winter Solstice Qigong Meditation.

We will practice gentle 3 Sources Qigong to shake out our stagnation and connect, then sit down to welcome the 7:27pm PST solstice arrival with a traditional Daoist candle gazing meditation. In the darkest hour, we foster the returning Yang Qi as a gentle flame in the belly. No experience needed.

You can join the community in a zoom session by registering here:

I will also attempt to open this as a Facebook Livestream and, if all goes well, you can join us here.

Hi fellow human. Give thanks. The Dao is simple and love seems to be the reason we are here. Love of self, emanating from Xu {emptiness} into all the body cells and fluids. Like a fountain, overflowing into family, community and world. Birth and death may be illusions, but life is precious. Keep each day whole and complete and live graceful and grateful.
