I am enjoying having such a broad inventory of strength, agility, balance, and stamina routines to utilize as I work to prepare my body to relearn the Tai Chi forms. This morning started with the '10 minute Qi Gong" then another 10 or so minutes of the 'Do this Every Day" Tai Chi warmup. Then 12 minutes of 'Ice Walking' from the kitchen, through the dining room and back and forth down the hallway. All inside as the outside temp is '22 feels like 12' Fahrenheit. Short term goals are 30 minutes combined Ocean and Ice walking, 30 minutes of follow along with the videos of Qi Gong and Tai Chi. Long term goals, recovering the ability to execute the Tai Chi short and long forms to the best an older person can by this time next year. I feel very fortunate to have found Rooted Alchemy. Your video presentation is top shelf after several that frustrated me. Thank you for your fine work

It is not about TaiChi and Qigong, but in the same line and also so important for the whole world and to feed the positive energy towards peace. Did you hear about the walk of peace in US? A group of 18 - 19 monks, often accompanied by their rescue dog Aloka, who has become known as the “Peace Dog.” They are connected to the Huong Dao Vipassana Bhavana Temple in Fort Worth, Texas.They live a traditional Buddhist life, guided by meditation, compassion, and mindfulness. They are walking from Fort Worth, Texas to Washington, D.C. Through the southeastern part of the US. It is a journey of about 2,300 miles (around 3,700 kilometers). They started on October 26, 2025, and plan to arrive in Washington, D.C. around mid-February 2026. 'It is a message of peace, loving-kindness, and compassion, shown simply by their presence on the road. Step by step.' It’s the choice to make peace visible without arguing for it. No slogans to debate, no demand to agree. Just bodies moving through the landscapes, day after day, letting presence do the talking. They are now just north of South Carolina, moving through central to northern North Carolina (about 86–87 days into the journey). Every day, thousands of people come to greet them. It is deeply moving to see how many people carry them and this intention in their hearts ☸️ 🙏 https://walkforpeace.short.gy/live-map dhammacetiya.com https://www.facebook.com/walkforpeaceusa/

My new daily practice starts with meditation 🧘‍♀️ Eating healthy, walking and Tai Chi has helped me to sleep deeply and feel alert and present. Meditating takes discipline and patience. Taichi and Qigong has given me this 🙏✨️ Enjoy this awesome experience 👏

I have arthritis in my knee and shoulder joints. This limits my range of motion in some of the moves. Sometimes I have a better range of motion than others. Does anyone else deal with this? Mike

Have a great practice wherever you may be! It's going to be a fabulous day ☺️
