Hello to All

[daneijin]

Hello to all on this forum.

 

Im Aleks from Vienna Austria, 40 years old.

Used to practice Karate and KungFu  as well as play a lot of Sports when younger  and be in quiet a good shape, 

but then 10 years ago I just stopped and got lazy.

Also started drinking and smoking a lot. My deteriorating health  and the birth of my Son shook and woke me up to what I've become (a lazy fat cripple of  industrial modern age men).

 

So I quit drinking and smoking and started practicing again since the beginning of this year.

Feels Good, but the devastation of the last 10 years is quit substantial, my internal energy is still very very low.

In search of good Neidan - Qi Gong i landed on this site in hope for good Advice and  to make friends in the Way.

 

Best Regards

Aleks

Hi Aleks,

 

Congrats on taking the first step. It’s the hardest one - to quit smoking and drinking. It’s also a slow process but you’ll start to feel better and better each day. Remember to take care with what you eat, as that will give your body the fuel it needs. Don’t put junk in for fuel. Welcome and enjoy !

Hi Aleks.  Welcome.

 

I'm sure you will find many threads where you can discuss your practice.

 

Yeah, I still smoke.  Never had a problem with drinking.  But my energy level has been too low lately.  I guess I'm going to have to get back to my Tai Chi.

 

Best wishes to you.
