Are you feeling unfulfilled or unfocused? Do the words unhappy, unsure, or unloved pop into your thoughts? Do you need a friendly ear, a strong shoulder, a sounding board, someone to listen and not judge?  And if that person can help you sort through the chaos swirling around in your mind, would that help you? Want to design a life plan?

If you answered yes, you need a personal strategist -  Marsha G. Cook, MSNH, CPT, Intuitive, Motivational Speaker and Author of "QAC - The Smallest Personal Strategy Book You'll Ever Need."  To schedule some private ‘talk’ time contact her at: m@thenookcornelius.com

QiGong at The Nook!
 Beginning Saturday, January 9, 2010, 
Instructor: Dr. Michael Futterman, L.Ac., Ph.D.
of Body, Mind and Spirit/ Cornelius
 
About the Form:
Form is approximately 60 minutes and includes a 20 minute warm up. 
An ancient family Taoist form, it is a means of finding ones deepest connection with the One Universe (symbolized by the Wu Chi symbol).  It is said that one might receive the health and energetic benefits from Qi Gong simply by performing the movements in one's mind.

 
About Dr. Michael Futterman, L.Ac., Ph.D.:
Michael learned his Qi Gong from Peter Yates who was granted permission to teach it by the venerable Master SiFu Lew whose family passed it down numerous generations. He has practiced Qi Gong and Tai Chi in these forms for over a decade. His goal - to return the individual to a state of knowing one's self and learning to listen to the ‘still,
small voice’ within.
 
Dr. Futterman was awarded his Masters Degree in Acupuncture, Herbology and Oriental Medicine from the New York College for Holistic Health, Education and Research in Syosset, NY. He subsequently received his Diplomate from the National Commission for the Certification of Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine and has been an active member of the Acupuncture Society of New York. As an educator he has hosted numerous workshops designed to open new ideas in the practice of acupuncture/oriental medicine.

As a licensed practitioner, his goal is to bring to young and old, alike, the healing and balance that oriental medicine enables; to awaken the synergy that exists from birth between the body, mind and spirit which enables us to live our lives with clarity and vision.
