Why Drink Hot Water?

The way you start each day is incredibly important. Whether you're a mum, a coach, a writer, a small business owner or a yoga teacher, what you do first thing in the morning matters.

According to traditional Chinese philosophy, choices that you make regarding your daily routine either build up resistance to disease or tear it down.

BE invites us to get a jump-start on the day by focusing on morning rituals that work to align the body with nature's rhythms, balance the dantiens and foster self-esteem alongside self-discipline.

Your mind may say you have to check emails, take the dog out, get the kids out the door, that you can't be late for work or that you just don't have enough time to cultivate your own morning rituals.

But, if you can only make time for one ritual that will improve your health, let it be this.....

One Hundred Day Gong

Tradition & Gong

A Gong in Chinese is a designated amount of time that you allot to perform a specific task daily and there is a tradition in internal arts that even seemingly unattainable goals become possible in 100 days of concentrated training.

This allows for a new set of behaviours to take effect in our nervous systems and become a ‘habit’. The 100-day Hun Yuan Qigong program, open to all, is an exercise in individual discipline with community support.  Tradition states that we diligently practice every day for 100 days without fail. This means that if you miss a day, even if its day 99, you start over. Not only does this build resolve, it forces us to wake up and pay attention to our day-to-day routines.
