Moving Meditation

Moving Meditation

J’ai appris que la pratique Tai Chi TaoïsteMD est une méditation en mouvement. Lorsque je suis dans le moment présent, je ne pense plus à rien, mon corps détendu suit le mouvement et mon esprit est léger.

Ankylosing Spondylitis

Ankylosing Spondylitis

I have ankylosing spondylitis which primarily affects my spine. When the inflammation is happening, it’s quite painful.  I’ve been doing Taoist Tai Chi® ever since I was first diagnosed in 1988, and that’s what I mostly use to manage the pain and the illness.  It keeps me moving … if I don’t move, I seize […]
On Chanting

On Chanting

I was first introduced to chanting a couple of years ago at a retreat week, and I wasn’t much taken by it. However I didn’t want to be separate from the group, so I joined in. I continued to chant on Sunday at my Toronto location. I found it soothing before the session began. When […]

Letting Go

Letting Go

I find it very difficult to let go, not to worry, to let go of my fears and be open to change. With the practice of the Taoist Tai Chi® arts and the support of the other participants, I am able to get better. I am on the path of change. J’ai beaucoup de difficulté à […]
Rapid Recovery after Kidney Transplant

Rapid Recovery after Kidney Transplant

    In 2019 I had been practicing Taoist Tai Chi® arts for 22 years; it is also the year I had a full medical check including scans, bloodwork, and psychological assessment in hopes of donating a kidney to my husband.  Through the years of my Taoist Tai Chi® practice, I noticed the physical benefits […]
