My 90-year-old mother fell last night.
She said, “I was a little disorientated when I woke up
in the middle of the night and the next thing I knew,
I was lying on the floor.”
Luckily she didn’t get hurt.
She wears one of those emergency buttons around her
neck and someone came up to her apartment in minutes.
My friend’s mother wasn’t so lucky. She is up there in
years as well but nowhere close to my mother.
She got her feet tangled up in the sheets and before
she knew it she was on the floor with a broken bone.
It seems that when she tried to get out of bed she fell
on the floor and fractured her thigh.
She was rushed to the hospital and is now
getting pins and rods to hold it in place and months
of therapy just to try and get back to normal.
When you fall and break something it can take months
to repair and sometimes years,
and that’s not the worst part.
If you aren’t moving your body your lymphatic system
isn’t moving either and you can get swollen legs,
fluid build up and even possible heart or kidney failure.
In Chinese medicine, the heart is the fire and the kidneys
are water.
Hence that’s the meaning of the yin and yang sign,
fire and water.
They need to stay balanced to keep your health and vitality.
That’s the first thing I check when doing an acupuncture
treatment, the heart and the kidneys yin and yang.
You would think this just happens in the older population
but that’s not the case.
Many younger people end up on the floor with broken
bones every day and it can be prevented
but it’s not an overnight fix.
On my last birthday I was in Lake Havasu, Arizona.
I was invited to go on a friend’s powerboat for a ride.
When I got in the boat I just walked over the hall and
sat down.
My friend remarked that I had great balance and most
people have a hard time walking on board.
I didn’t think much about it at the time, as my balance
is very good.
But it’s not totally natural– I work on it and have been
for years.
I started practicing martial arts when I was 12, yoga
when I was only 17 and Qi Gong for over 30 years.
I work on my balance every day, sometimes spinning
in circles on the beach, walking backwards or practicing
Qi Gong postures.
Nothing comes for free if you want to avoid the perils of
old age or just prevent yourself from falling on your face-
you have to practice.
Students ask me all the time what would be the best
program for me to start with?
If I had to choose a beginning Qi Gong practice I’d
suggest getting the Flying Crane Qi Gong
and then move into the more advanced Recharging
Qi Gong program.
For the students that wanting more and more of
advanced info
I started the Qi Gong Inner Circle to give the serious
students the inside scoop on anti-aging and longevity
practices that most Westerners will never see and unless
they find a Master.
