Yesterday I worked most of the day with my accountant in my
home office. Yes, I put it off to the last minute but unlike
most people that file late I did not suffer from extensive
stress or tension in my body.
Let me tell you why.
It's not that I am immune to the pressures of financial and
time based obligations. I feel them just as anybody else does.
What makes me different is that I have learned to disconnect
and rewire these pressures.
In Qi Gong our goal is to return to the wisdom of the body.
When we get wound up in external pressures we lose track of the
body-mind and stay stuck in the busy-mind.
When we take a break and listen to the body, breathe
consciously we can separate the stresses of the mind from the
body.
Being in the body or body-mind we can then free up the tensions
that have been stored in the muscles, fascia, and tendons by
relaxed conscious movement.
Relaxed and conscious movement can be fast or slow but either
way you begin to reprogram the body and free up destructive
patterns and muscle memory.
This is how Qi Gong works when you study the way I teach it.
Some teach Qi Gong as wrapping your arms around an imaginary
beach ball and holding your breath until you turn blue. That's
not what this is http://rechargingqigong.com
I teach 100's of exercises on how to unify the body, mind and
breathing to create a more powerful you.
Now once you have cleared the body of stress you still need to
do your taxes.
If you haven't yet I have a recommendation for you. I have a
friend named Gary Adams who is not only a fan of Qi Gong and my
work he is a CPA and he has his own website and can process
your taxes TODAY if you have yet to do so.
I recommend him over anybody else. He has easy to use software
and kind file any kind of form you might need.
I just spoke to him this morning and he told me that H&R
Block's servers crashed yesterday. Can you imagine working on
your taxes and then blam - they're gone.
Not going to happen on Gary's site, he gave me a special link
to share with my friends.

PS: Practicing with an imaginary beach ball is not a bad thing,
I do that form myself sometimes, you just need some advanced
training to do it and gain real benefit. Check out

Just moments ago I was enjoying a relaxing breakfast in my
kitchen and decided to get a jump on things and make a few
business calls. I made a call to a good friend and I was
shocked how he answered the phone.
"oh my back"
That's how he answered the phone?
I know that in today's day in age you already know who's
calling you before you pick up the phone but how 'bout a hello
first?
So before I do anything else this morning I'm dedicating an
email to my friend, you know who you are.
The rest of you who never have any back pain you'll want to
read this as well because if you don't have back pain I'm sure
you're tired of listening to somebody that does.
Here's the 5 keys to unlocking Back Pain:
1-Take care of the initial spasm or injury that created the
pain. (There are several ways to do this that I will give in
detail later below)
2- Give yourself time to recover.
3- Get your back stronger.
4- Avoid the things that may weaken your back. (I'm not just
talking about movement or lack of movement, there are types of
stress and even foods that can weaken your back)
5- Exercise your back daily.
That's it, 5 things.
It's really that simple but people suffer with this all the
time. Little do people know that if they start today they could
live the rest of their lives without another back ache.
Now for the details:
The pain that woke you up to your back problem is either a
spasm or a pulled muscle. In some chronic cases people have
spinal injuries but I assure you it those didn't just sneak up
on you.
Unless the spinal injury was the result of a direct trauma the
deterioration of the spine would have first been preceded by
pulled muscles or spasms.
Those spasms are where you need to nip this back pain in the
bud.
Spasms can be treated with acupuncture, massage, deep tissue
work and even a good soak. The most important thing is that you
don't ignore it. Once it hits you take it seriously, deal with
it, and eliminate the problem.
Back pain should be a priority to eliminate.
As I mentioned above, chronic back problems don't sneak up on
you, they take years of neglect for them to become chronic
spinal damage.
Don't ever neglect your back just doing a little Qi Gong
movement and breathing will banish Back Pain forever. This was
a major reason for putting together the Recharging Qi Gong
http://rechargingqigong.com I wanted to give away all the easy
to do exercises that eliminate all the aches and pains I see
every day in my office.
An ounce of Qi Gong is worth ten tons of cure. I don't even
call it prevention because Qi Gong is fun to do. By just using
and moving your body and lungs every day all the tensions and
pains will leave the body.

PS: Yesterday I wrote about how the micro movements of the
Instant Power Reset exercise can blow away stress and tension
in the shoulders and neck and I got some great feedback from
people that are using this exercise. The Instant Power Reset is
still only available as part of the http://rechargingqigong.com
and is the foundation to the subtle body Qi Gong.
Last week I had my nephew visit me and I was working on him in
my new office here in Miami.
He had and enormous amount of tension in his neck and
shoulders. I began to work on him and asked him what he had
been doing.
He told me how busy he was and how much work he had been doing.
I understand because I too seem to be busy all the time lately.
Regardless of what business you're in, we all get busy in
springtime, this is natural and organic. In Chinese medicine we
don't consider ourselves to be unaffected by the seasonal
change of energy.
The weather heats up and all creatures small and large begin to
stir and move about.
Insects come out of their holes, small animals leave their
burrows and or come out from hibernation.
The same is true for business, clients and business
opportunities wake up in spring time too.
The question is how will you handle the seasonal change. Will
you grow this season or buckle under the pressure?
As we take on more and more in the springtime, we stretch
ourselves. Everybody should be gaining new capacity in spring
time.
Every spring we should grow a little more.
This is in accordance with natural law and the way of Qi Gong.
As we develop this new capacity we often outdo ourselves. We
have to take on more in order to grow new muscle.
When we take on more we can build the tension in the body and
that tension needs to be released in order for us to stay
healthy, stay young and live a vibrant life.
If you don't release the added tension you will breakdown the
system.
For my nephew I prescribed several exercises from my system The
Recharging Chi Gong
http://rechargingqigong.com
The three exercises I gave him are specifically designed to
free up the neck and shoulders.
The first exercise is to free up the tension around the neck.
When communication is strained is can create a physical
blockage in this area that manifests as literally a "pain in
the neck"
The second exercise is to release the tension in the shoulders
and middle of the upper back. New commitments and bourdons can
create tension in this part of the body and can be so painful
that they disturb your sleep and wreak your next day.
The third exercise I gave him is a very powerful exercise I
call the Instant Power Reset that he can practice anywhere to
release tension from a stressful workday while still sitting in
the office without anybody hardly noticing he's doing an
exercise at all. With a series of tiny micro movements you can
unlock an amazing amount of tension and send a rush of oxygen,
blood, and euphoria throughout the entire body.
It's a powerful secret.
These three exercises I prescribed for him not only alleviate
the tension he has accumulated, it relaxes his body and opens
his energy so that he is clear to operate and communicate at
his best during this burst of springtime energy.
I know, because I have seen it hundreds of times before, that
when these exercises are done you will end up smiling
throughout the day and be ultimately more successful.
I want this for you as well.
Many of us don't feel that we can find time to work out, take a
walk, or even spend some time just doing a little deep
breathing.
But the exercises I teach can be performed in seconds and
produce an instant result.
Even if you practice ALL the exercises in my manual back to
back, the way I do everyday, and they way I show in my
Recharging Qi Gong DVD, it only takes 26 minutes but you can
get benefit by just practicing one or two exercises a day.
I made the manual very easy to use.
Each individual exercises is described in detail and lists what
I prescribed them for. I don't know any other manual like this
in China or the US.
Just a couple of minutes a day can create huge results and you
will experience a dramatic change in your energy level.
I hope you will find this out for yourself by going to
http://rechargingqigong.com and making a wise investment in
yourself.
You won't find this information in any other form and it would
take you years to gather it yourself.
Remember, you are not the only one experiencing all this new
energy and growth of spring time; everybody does whether they
are aware or they are not.
What's makes you different as a practitioner of Qi Gong is the
ability to recognize how the body, the breathing and the mind
are focused and connected to the cycles of nature.
By doing this you can have the flow of nature and power of the
seasons work through you and energize your being.
This is what makes Chi Gong extra ordinary or even
extraordinary.
Wishing you the best in health, wealth, and happiness,
