The Energy of Commitment and Determination - Qi Talks With Eli

Date: 2020-09-12

We find ourselves in the midst of interesting and challenging times full of paradox.  I was chatting with a friend last week about commitment to Qi Gong practice and how when you start a new project or a change how in the beginning you're really excited and full of energy.  Then, as you get started and realize how hard it is to change or learn something new, your motivation begins to wane.  We were talking specifically about commitment and determination, and how with these Covid Times new challenges have arisen in commitment to practice.  Zoom was our savior in the beginning, but now some are longing for the energy of the in-group Qi Field and as a result aren't finding the time to invest in health and healing that is so critically important right now.  What to do? 

I often find myself at the verge of giving up or unable to figure out my next step.  How can we turn the difficulty of Joseph Campbell's Hero's Journey Struggle to transform this energy into diging deep to find that spark and leaning into that to push forward into Growth?

Where are you right now with your own journey to health and healing?  Are you finding your motivation, or are you succumbing to malaise?

In the Spring we talk a lot about the energy of the Liver - the organ system that is responsible for our ability to burst through into growth.  Additionally, the Wood element of Spring keeps us flexible and able to bend and roll with the punches as they appear in front of us.  In this Qi Talk we go deep into how we grow the energy of determination and flexibility throughout the year, and apply it universally, especially through these challenging times!
