MElliott Posted June 7, 2018 Hey everyone, my name is Mike, found this forum a few days ago and excited to explore. I've been practicing Tai Qi for about 2 yrs now and was recently introduced to the more Qi Gong aspects of the practice through a workshop which has been fantastic. Also practicing meditation for several years although to say I have a regular sitting practice might be a bit generous.... Other than that I enjoy cooking (lots of soup!), a bone dry sense of humor, long long walks with my two awesome dogs, and am currently struggling my way through anything by David Bohm. Hope you're all having a great day, look forward to exploring the forums more 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The delivery is meant to be blunt, ironic, laconic, or apparently unintentional. - Wikipedia A deadpan emoji 2 hours ago, Marblehead said: I might be able to help you with the sense of humor.
