About me
Mind - breath - body, the levels of mindfulness.
The heart-mind directs the attention, breath and Qi follow the feeling.
This realization has become a way of life for me.
The origin of this experience lies in previous experiences as a Buddhist monk.
The search for methods of mindfulness that can be implemented by people in the West and their everyday life brought me to Qigong, Taijijuan, Aikido, Karate, Kung-Fu, Pekiti Tirsia Kali and other arts of movement.
I have been practicing mindfulness and Qigong in my everyday life for over 30 years.
