There are no accidents. Everything happens for a reason.

It’s a hard lesson for us to digest, but a great thrill when the unexpected begins to reveal profound purpose.

The power of integrating Wu Ming Qigong practice and energy treatment is infinite. These modalities restore the body’s balance and function so that Qi flow is reset and Nature takes over.

My turn to the Wu Ming Qigong system and traditional Chinese medicine was a leap into an unknown world. It was motivated by the clear knowledge that I was not put on Earth to manage a growing set of chronic conditions and emotional trauma.

My first program was the Dragon’s Way Qigong, which immediately helped me lose excess weight, end brain fog, and improve my work outcomes and relationships. Five years later I began to reduce, and then completely stop my medications and supplements for chronic fatigue syndrom, hyper thyroid, depression and anxiety, peri-menopause and other issues.

It was natural for me to want others to have similar results. I applied to be a direct student of Grand Master Nan Lu, the lineage holder of the Wu Ming Qigong system.

That was my point of no return, thankfully! I earned my Certified Dragon’s Way Instructor badge in 2016. Over the next few years, I completed training in Qigong for Women’s Breast Health, The 3Es Qigong and other programs which I schedule throughout the year on Zoom and in person.

My basic level Tao of Medical Qigong (MQ) training was completed in 2018. My healing partnerships with clients encouraged me to pursue advanced-level MQ training in 2021, followed by Qigong Meridian Therapy (QMT) in 2022.

I can’t express in words the gratitude I have for the many masters who stand behind my living master, Grand Master Nan Lu. The mastery of my tender and butt-kicking teachers, Elaine Katen, Deborah Hallahan and Irma Jenne has encouraged me to be a better and better version of myself.

The generosity of The AUX, Evanston’s new wellness hub, and Inner Gate Acupuncture’s wonderful practitioners Miriam Tamara Derman and Lok Quan Cheng supports all we do.
