My explorations of body, breath and consciousness in my search for health. Join me on this journey.

The journey of a thousand miles starts from beneath your feet--LaoTze, in the Tao Te Ching.

Class 7 of 8

Fire element--heart, small intestine, pericardium and triple heater. Color red or to keep it from being too intense, pink. Sound is Ha! (Haaaaaa)

Good energy from the class. Was feeling really logy before I went. Came out juiced and hungry (of course). This was the next to last class in the series. When finished, it will have provided a solid set of movements and postures for a sustained practice. Of course, there is always more to do, to learn.

I let my diet get out of whack and took in too much sugar over the past few days. Caused a breakout (folliculitis) on my upper lip--creates an angry inflammation that takes a few days to subside. Directing Qi to the area to facilitate healing. I believe it is triggered by sugar and direct sunlight--also a measure of internal anxiety. Not sure what I'm worrying about exactly--life, I suppose.

Looking forward to the last and future classes.
