Update: Thailand Qigong Study Trip, March 25 – April 8, 2012
Home to Kaua’i I promised myself this year I would return home at least once every season. On Kaua’i that means the wet season, the even-wetter season, and the drying-out-from-the-wet season. You can’t claim the garden isle to be “the wettest spot on earth” without some drenching downpours! Fortunately, with rain also comes rainbows [...]

I just returned from a fabulous European teaching tour to Poland, Germany, Holland and Sweden…how do I begin to describe the incredible warmth and hospitality of my friends and hosts overseas, or the many healing stories shared amongst my students. There is a richness of culture and depth of history that can only be fully [...]
