October 2014 |
Instructor's Corner
Daylight is shortening and autumn has arrived. The energy of the lungs dominates this time of year. So take care to protect your lungs from the changing weather. Don't get caught off guard with the cooler days; stay warm. As we shift our attention indoors, it is the perfect time to deepen our Qigong practice. Read our new article, "Qigong in a Modern World", and learn about integrating Qigong into our busy lives.
Qigong provides many tools for reducing stress and increasing energy to improve your health. I have benefited from many forms of Qigong. You can experience similar benefits too.
The purpose of the Vital Qi Newsletter is to bring awareness to Qigong and to inform you of Qigong classes and products available at Inner Vitality Qigong.
We also intend on covering other natural health related topics. We look forward to working with you and growing together as we cultivate
inner vitality through the art of Qigong. Please feel free to share this newsletter with family and friends.

Lessons from the Tao Te Ching
In Chapter 8, the Tao describes the highest goodness like water. The actions of water are a metaphor for the Tao and life. It benefits many things without conflict. If we are like water, all life benefits and there is no need for competition and judgments.
You can read more about the Tao Te Ching here.
Chapter 8
The highest goodness resembles water
Water greatly benefits myriad things without contention
It stays in places that people dislike
Therefore it is similar to the Tao
Dwelling with the right location
Feeling with great depth
Giving with great kindness
Speaking with great integrity
Governing with great administration
Handling with great capability
Moving with great timing
Because it does not contend
It is therefore beyond reproach

Being of Service
Together we can make a difference, one person at a time. Being of service to others in need lets them know that they are not alone. It lets them know we care.
Not only does our service touch people's lives in a positive way, but it is also healing for ourselves as well.
There are so many ways to be of service, like donating money, time, clothing, etc. One way to be of service is by opening your heart
and your wallet and donating to the "American Red Cross". They are on the ground providing support around the world. There is so much need. Please donate today. You can make a difference.
