Often times people exercise their bodies with little or no engagement of their thought process. While this might be physically rewarding for some people, others desire to be more mentally, physically and spiritually engaged while training. Tai Chi, Qigong & Yoga offer all of these facets on many levels, depending upon the goals and interest of the individual.

Zen Wellness: Journey Around the Sun: How to use mediation and qigong to harmonize your mind, body and emotions with the seasons.
Many of my family and friends have known that I have this passion for learning and teaching of martial arts, fitness/wellness, eastern philosophy and traditional Chinese medicine. I started when I was 16 years old and have been teaching since I turned 19. Now, almost 40 years later I am doing the same, plus writing books, producing charts, graphics, study guides and videos – all pertaining to staying healthy and mentally sharp into our later years. Pursuing an education in how the mind, body and spirit interact, has been one of my most rewarding endeavors. If you are looking for a good read that might ask you to think outside of the modern healthcare box, check it out or ask me more about these topics.

Do your personal goals revolve around working out to stay in shape (fitness) — or working out for your mind, body and spirit (wellness)?
Fitness focuses on your physical health including nutrition, strength, conditioning, flexibility, and body composition with specific markers based on body size, gender, body type, training style, and training age. Fitness is a component of wellness, but wellness isn’t a component of fitness.
Health is a state of being – physical, mental, and social well-being. Primary determinants of health include the social, economic, and physical environments, and individual characteristics and behaviors.
Wellness (well-being) includes fitness but it’s broader. Wellness considers all of your choices and how they create your entire lifestyle. Wellness includes many facets, and looks at the way they interact to create balance or imbalance. Think of wellness as a web, then plucking it one part creates reverberations across the rest.
Wellness is the state of living a healthy lifestyle. Wellness is considered a conscious, self-directed and evolving process of achieving full potential. Wellness is multidimensional and holistic, encompassing lifestyle, mental and spiritual well-being, and the environment. Wellness is finding a balance between all of these and enhancing a sense of happiness.
