Thanks for watching....Hard to believe that video was shot 8 years ago. So much has changed since then for recording and lighting!

Always a good question to ask. Sometimes we think it is what we are walking into, but sometimes it is what we are leaving behind.

My pleasure

Thanks for sharing.

You're the best! I am thrilled to be sending tea across Canada and "over the pond" as they say for Europe. It lights my heart to see people smiling and enjoying a great cup of tea....so much fun in a beautiful mug, wine glass, or thermos, or as a popsicle, ice cube, hot or cold. I look forward to sharing the summer recipes next week.

Yay, thank you! I so appreciate you listening and sharing your kind words!

You are welcome.

We use all kinds of points between Touch for Health and Tai Chi. I look forward to hearing more of your experience with this one.

With so much teaching online, those 9 points tell us so much about how we are handling stress - it is really fascinating. Thanks for watching.

I know this one has been invaluable for many in Tai Chi over the years. I do enjoy using this one any time of the day - it is so easy. Thanks for checking in!

It really is like that magic when you engage the foot sensors and empower the whole body. Simple. Thanks for watching @melissadeally

Thanks for the great feedback. With our lives changing so much to stationary time, it is really valuable to know that we can listen to the stress cues from our body and respond instantly to them. We don't have to wait until "exercise" time to make a difference.

You are welcome.

I appreciate you leaving a comment, but you are looking at the technique through the eyes of someone trained in a different form. There are specific reasons for how we do the program we do through Master Moy Lin Shin's work, and as a movement specialist, we understand the sinking and spiraling internal action when we do this activity.

Thank you for your comment. The speed of this is for demonstration purposes. We adjust the speed based on the intention of the set. To get out of your head, you can move faster and listen to the body movements. To explore the relationship of the muscle to tendon, there will be much slower movement. When learning the set it is important to move so that you are not thinking so much about all the details and loose your connection to the flow. I am not sure about your comment about the turns. Please share more.

@@michellegreenwell My instructor, is a top ranked sinsi. Not sure this is how it's spelled. Her name is Rosalind McDermott. She says it takes 10,000x to Mastery. There are 24 steps. Some of them require repetition and turns. Rooster stands on right leg etc, and other require your feet to turn. All I know is it's going to take me 20,000x to Mastery bc between the feet & arm movements I am so confused. ☺️

@@annettegerage4478 The feet are very important and step at a 45 degree most of the time, and 22.5 degrees some of the time, but the real turning comes from within as you develop a mastery of the outside of the body to the inside awareness. I prefer to think of it as evolving with Tai Chi rather than reaching an end point because our body will change each day based on our emotional and spiritual wellness. Our patience with ourselves is important so that we can be present with where we are and learn and grow from there. It is a very rewarding journey. The motto for Wine Country Tai Chi Society in West Kelowna, BC is "The Journey is the Reward." Enjoy your journey.

HI. My instructor's name is ::Rosalind McLymont. Sorry for the mistake. One thing is she is fabulous. Lord knows she has patience with me.🙂

I am in awe at what Girls Matter is doing with Melissa's vision. As well as Stephen Moyo's Mission4Change for the Moyo family with Charlene. Powerful women with incredible vision.

It is so wonderful to share how the tea can make an impact to one person, to a group of people and to a community. Best wishes with your upcoming projects.

Happy to help with something so simple, yet so powerful for shifting posture and energy.

Thanks Melissa. I also do them at my desk and they are great between meetings.

@@michellegreenwell Absolutely!!

I appreciate your comment. We muscle monitor by touching in two places to close the circuit so it is not testing the tester. Touch for Health is very specific about this.

Thanks for listening Nathalie and sharing!

She is one powerful women with her ideas and opportunities. Thanks for listening.

Great podcast, I really enjoyed the conversation. ( I also just picked up one for your lovely Teas today at Brooke Village Grocery Michelle. It is just divine. ) I’m looking forward to trying more tea and listening to more videos. ☕️💕🕯

Thanks so much for listening, Nathalie! I appreciate your comment! 🥰

Thank you for watching!

Thank you, Monika. It is a partnership that happens in the program and together we find the best solutions for entrepreneurs to excel at what they are passionate about.

Thank you for the feedback and so glad you enjoyed the podcast. Be sure to check out other topics in Season 2 that help shed a light on the power of energy techniques to support your well-being.

The power of combining movements with intuitively guided music is profound. This special episode surpassed our own expectations of what is possible.

Thank you Shirley for the comment. I hope you enjoy many more days of discovery with the change in your spine from listening!

Thank you Alexis! It was a pleasure to have you on the show.

For the shining light that you are Nathalie, we are honored you spent time listening and enjoying the podcast. Thank you for all that you do to support your web of influence.

Oh, that was a good story too! I'll keep that one for next time. Our "Beatles for Kids" show with the Yellow Submarine, the dancing and slipping Blue Meanies, the Lord Mayor and most of the audience on stage with us playing in the band! 🤩

It is lovely how many different ways we can use the breath and sound with such profound results for well-being. Thank you for sharing.

Thank you for your comments and question. The 108 moves do have names for the moves, not specific names for each arm position. In the first 17 moves we have Commencement, Left Grasp Bird's Tale, Grasp Bird's Tale, Whip to one side, Step up to Raise Hands, White Stork Spreads wings, Strum the Pei Pa, Brush Knees and Appear to Close the entrance. These are English translations to Chinese phrases, and do have metaphorical meaning. I hope this helps.

Hi! Thank you for that great question. Bioenergetic refers to activities that create energy for us to be well. That is actions which bring balance and flow. This can be choosing activities that promote deep breathing with expansion of the hips and chest to create Qi - if we are considering Tai Chi or Qi Gong. Water can be bioenergetic if we sip it to energize the system, if we drink too much water, it would be bioacidic as it would overstress the system and put us out of balance. Bioenergetic wellness is engaging in activities that maintain balance and flow. These tools can include awareness and biofeedback through sensing or muscle monitoring, tools that help to personalize what we do for ourselves that is supportive. Although walking 3 miles/km is energizing for one person, it may not be for someone else. By gaining information from the body about what supports it, we can create and store energy for use later. That is where Tai Chi comes in. When we do tai chi patterns or qi gong exercises, we are creating balance and flow through all the systems. This is a bioenergetic activity that will support wellbeing. The BioEnergetic Wellness Dance Warmup is designed to create balance and flow through the systems as well as engage reflexes and whole body movement so the body is fully engaged to participate in an activity or to function in harmony. I hope this helps to answer your great question!

@@michellegreenwell yes it helps enormously thank you. I find you channel to be really inspiring and unique. Thank you for all the wonderful information. I stumble across your channel as I was looking for a video on 108 tai cho form, which I learnt once before with a teacher. I was keen to learn it again. But I’m also doing a lot of dancing, so I was interested to see your video regarding that. Lots to go through!❤️

@@poggyspotential2196 I hope that the explanations in the Tai Chi Wellness and the Seated Form will be beneficial, as well as all the ideas explored in the 108 days of Tai Chi that started the first of covid days. Please reach out if you have any questions.

@@michellegreenwell Yes I’m Sure it will be perfect for me! Thanks so much again, and I appreciate you reaching out and offering support.❤️
