| Introduction | I teach cooking to people on restricted diets, showing how to have fun making food that's healthy and delicious. I also teach qi gong, Chinese healing exercise. The nexus between those two is health. I feel blessed to be involved in activities which I find fascinating. I love cooking-- from the foraging for the best ingredients, to the cleaning and preparing, to the serving, and finally, to the eating and sharing. My qi gong practice makes me happy in a similar way. I am able to study with Master Tang Wei-Zhong, a remarkable teacher. Master Tang has a presence of calm non-attachment. 8 years ago I had a malignant brain tumor removed from my right frontal lobe. I was lucky to have fantastic medical care, and even luckier to have great complementary care: from nutritionist Jeanne Wallace, acupuncturist Ellen Lazares, support at the Wellness Community-West LA, and my qi gong teachers. None of this would have been possible without the support, belief and love of Kim, who sees something in me that I would LIKE to believe is there, and which I try daily to live up to. |
