Time to Get it Together
Every day I treat it like my opportunity to re-create, to set new goals, connect with new people and tackle some tasks…but then, your heart is raising, your answers are short, you mind is foggy..Stress, what a silent enemy, UGH!
I am all about flowing with change and last minute disruptions but not today…today I wasn’t having the best day. The emotional and mental fatigue translated to my physical body, I noticed I was just pushing through my day but it wasn’t until someone told me “ I am feeling your stress”..
What a way to force me to pull the breaks and evaluate myself.
I always thrive to be that person who adds value, light, love and ideas, solutions to problems, Who wants to be that person adding stress to others?
How can we get more sales, close more deals, get people to do more with us if our energy is static, stressed out? Energy is EVERYTHING! Yes, we are all humans and yes it happens to all of us..But what makes the difference time and time again is our ability to PAUSE, RESPOND AND BOUNCE BACK!
Consciousness is what awakens us in order to take action, live better, quality, balanced lives. Here’s an article from the US National Library of Medicine about the connection of stress and immunity. With everything going on in our surroundings, identifying our internal and external stressors allow us to take steps towards prevention. Achieving balance is vital now more than ever

In just minutes of doing some Qi-Gong I recovered my breath and calmed my heart. I needed this mid- day jumpstart.
What is Qi-Gong?
According to the Tai Chi Foundation: Qigong (pronounced “chee-gung”) is a collection of basic tai chi-style movements, massages, and energetic practices that improves the circulation and balance of the body’s vitality or “life force energy”. Instead of a continuous progression from one position to the next, as occurs in the tai chi “form”, qigong movements are simple and discrete, often pared down to a repeating pattern or a stationary meditative pose. When practiced regularly with conscious breathing and mindful awareness, qigong stimulates the body’s inherent healing energy and fosters its healthful flow throughout the body. In addition to health maintenance, qigong is especially valued for its regenerative qualities supporting individuals with minor or serious illnesses, injuries, energy blocks whether deficiencies or excesses and emotional/spiritual disbalances.
