			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p></p><h2>Hey Healthy Boomer: Join the Qigong Sarasota Group&#8230;</h2>
<div id="attachment_537" class="wp-caption alignleft" style="width: 150px">
	<a href="http://healthywealthyboomer.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/siesta-key-florida.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image-537" title="siesta-key-florida" src="http://healthywealthyboomer.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/siesta-key-florida.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="187" /></a>
	<p class="wp-caption-text">Siesta Key Florida</p>
</div>
<p>As a Boomer in the Sarasota, Florida area, you owe it to yourself to re-activate your vitality, initiate an anti-aging campaign and find some peace of mind.  In my experience, there is no single exercise set as beneficial to the human body as a combination of Qigong and martial arts training.</p>
<p>This is for a multitude of reasons including:</p>
<ul>
<li>Qigong renews the body on so many levels &#8211; improved circulation, increases in Qi circulation, natural strength and diminished levels of stress</li>
<li>The type of strength that is developed over time is what I call a comprehensive strength &#8211; using the whole body in unison, not muscle mass without integration</li>
<li>All aspects of the body are activated, rejuvenated and coordinated into maximum performance without requiring maximum output</li>
</ul>
<p>You can do this by joining our group. It&#8217;ll take some time and practice, but it works every time for everybody who is diligent and receives competent instruction.</p>
<p>Mr. T.C Lee  of Honolulu was my Wu Style TaiChi teacher in 1973/74. He used to tell me:</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;Doing TaiChi everyday is like putting pennies in a piggy bank.  It doesn&#8217;t seem like much, but in 40 or 50 years, you have a lot of money.&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p>Being  a Healthy Boomer requires a long range attitude and long range execution. A little bit every day makes for amazing health, stability and balance.</p>
<p>I speak from experience.</p>
<p>If you&#8217;re in the area, stop by check out the Qigong Sarasota group on Siesta and start packing away <strong><em>your pennies</em></strong> for 20-30 years from now. If you&#8217;re in a different area, find a Qigong group and try it out. You can learn Qigong at any age. Once you learn this stuff, it&#8217;s yours. You own it for the rest of your life. The beauty is that you can practice wherever you are:</p>
<ul>
<li>in  a hotel room while you are traveling</li>
<li>in a park</li>
<li>on the beach</li>
<li>in your own backyard or living room</li>
<li>at your mother in law&#8217;s house</li>
<li>anywhere&#8230;</li>
</ul>
<p>Being a wealthy boomer makes no sense at all without optimum health to go with it. How can you enjoy life from a wheelchair, an assisted living facility or a hospital bed?</p>
<p>I can&#8217;t. Not my thing and never will be.</p>
<p>What are you waiting for?</p>
<p>Check it out and see for yourself.</p>
<p><a title="Qigong Sarasota Group" href="http://qigongsarasota.com/qigong-sarasota-group/" target="_blank">Qigong Sarasota</a></p>
<h3><strong>Sarasota is a little piece of paradise.</strong></h3>
<p>If you are not local,  stop by and say hello when you come here next time for vacation. Get tuned up and while you&#8217;re here plan to attend a <a title="Heart Forgiveness Workshops" href="http://heartforgiveness.wordpress.com" target="_blank">Heart Forgiveness Workshop</a> and get the inner self tuned up too&#8230;</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p></p><h2>May 2011 Heart Forgiveness Workshops Forming Now in Sarasota&#8230;</h2>
<p>A primary Healthy Wealthy Boomer recommendation is participating in a Heart Forgiveness Workshop because  it helps release toxins, balance our emotions and create the <a title="Relaxation Response" href="http://medical-dictionary.thefreedictionary.com/relaxation+response" target="_blank">relaxation response</a>.</p>
<p>Anger releases toxins into the body that linger for a sustained period of time in the body. These toxins create many long term negative side effects.</p>
<p>Releasing anger permanently is such an important tool for balance and clarity. We all can benefit by learning to live without anger and that&#8217;s what we do in Heart Forgiveness Workshops.</p>
<p>Time and again we see people change, expand and release. Years of anger smoldering beneath the surface &#8211; the kind of anger that we are often not consciously aware that we have inside &#8211; gone,  just like that.</p>
<p>Heart Forgiveness is a highly effective, interactive, 4 session workshop done in groups of less than fifteen people.</p>
<p>This month we are starting two new Heart Forgiveness groups and one Core Health Group:</p>
<ol>
<li>Heart Forgiveness Intensive where we do all four expansion levels starting the week of May 9.</li>
<li>Heart Forgiveness Group that will run for two weeks beginning the week of May 16th.</li>
<li>Core Health 1 &#8211; Expansion Levels 1-6:  Building A Solid Self</li>
</ol>
<p>Get more information and details about May Heart Forgiveness Workshops and how to sign up here:</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p></p><p><strong>Are You a Healthy Boomer?</strong></p>
<p>If you are &#8211; good for you. If you&#8217;re not yet, you can be. 2010 is the year for great possibilities.</p>
<p>New Years resolutions tend to be an annual ritual for many of us as we reflect upon the year that we are leaving behind and look forward to potential in the new year. Why do health club memberships skyrocket every year about this time and then peter out around March?</p>
<p>Basically new years resolutions never work and there is a good reason for that which I will address later in this post.</p>
<p>What gives <strong>ME</strong> the right to &#8220;preach&#8221;?</p>
<p><strong>Because I AM a Healthy Boomer.</strong></p>
<p>It is not an accident that guys half my age call me Mr. Energy. I have been focused on a healthy and natural lifestyle since 1971 &#8211; with some glitches and bumps along the way &#8211; but overall, throughout most of that time, I have chosen a path of &#8220;excellent health and vitality&#8221; as my standard. My lifelong motto has been this: I DON&#8217;T DO SICK. I have chosen a life of health as a conscious decision.</p>
<p>At age 18, I decided to take responsibility for my health. I made a choice to follow a path that would lead to longevity &#8211; and a vibrant, healthy life &#8211; not just a long one. I started looking at people around me and noticed how some older people had beautiful skin and bright shiny eyes and others seemed withered, with dry skin and dull eyes. Some had a bounce in their step with lots of energy, while for others, walking was difficult and labored.</p>
<p>I made a life choice &#8211; there and then &#8211; that I would be a member of the former group, and not the latter.</p>
<blockquote><p>As a result of that life choice, my health journey began with the following questions emerging within my consciousness and becoming a dominant force in my life:</p>
<ul>
<li>How do I do that?</li>
<li>How do I live a long and vibrantly healthy life?</li>
<li>What constitutes this kind of lifestyle?</li>
<li>How do I define this for myself?</li>
<li>What rules do I need to live by?</li>
</ul>
</blockquote>
<p>That may not seem like a big deal to you &#8211; now &#8211; as you read this.</p>
<p>Consider this: On a personal level, what were you thinking about &#8211; <em><strong>around health </strong></em>- at age a 18?</p>
<p>In retrospect, for an invincible, highly energetic, 18 year old &#8216;hot shot&#8217; &#8211; with a metabolism that required 6 full meals a day &#8211; that was a pretty profound choice and decision.</p>
<p>One of the things that had led up to that decision was the loss of my dearest and closest friend about a year earlier. He and his brother were both killed in a head-on by a drunk driver. His death forced me to consider mortality for the second time in my life.</p>
<p>Only this experience was different, <strong>it went to my core</strong>.</p>
<p>I went deep and sought resolution within myself. As I pondered life and death coherently and cogently, I chose to redirect my life towards another path. I withdrew from the circle of friends I had known and associated with &#8211; completely &#8211; and embarked upon my own path, alone. On some level I understood that if I did not, I would end up like my dear friend had.</p>
<p>Health became a driving force as a martial arts enthusiast and an &#8220;A&#8221; student in my first year of college, as a full time accounting major.</p>
<p>The regimen of rigorous training &#8211; 6 times a week at the dojo &#8211; and 3 to 4 hours of study daily quickly formed a solid pattern of self discipline &#8211; a skill that has been a real benefit since.</p>
<p><strong>Self Discipline Is a Key Ingredient to Health&#8230;</strong></p>
<p>Where it is most important &#8211; in my experience &#8211; is upholding our choices and being disciplined in our own willingness to follow through on those choices over the long haul. Consistency is what creates self discipline. And consistency in our attitude creates good health over time.</p>
<p>Over many years I have observed human behavior in a class and training environments &#8211; originally in martial arts and for the last 22 years, in qigong and the self development world. What I know is that people have to start where they are, with the existing skills they have &#8211; and build success upon those.</p>
<p>This is my mission with Baby Boomers to promote and in-power Baby Boomer health.</p>
<p><strong>Why Don&#8217;t New Years Resolutions Work?</strong></p>
<p>Here&#8217;s why.</p>
<p>Changing your mind does not change your energy body &#8211; your blueprint &#8211; until your mind and your energy body are in alignment. When you change in your root &#8211; in your energy &#8211; the change is permanent.</p>
<p>How do we do that?</p>
<p>I have looked for a method that <strong>works for everybody</strong> my whole life and in 2009 I found it. It&#8217;s called Core Health, a system of <a href="http://corehealthfacilitator.wordpress.com/2009/11/09/comprehensive-kinesiology-core-health/" target="_blank">comprehensive kinesiology</a> that both encompasses and expands upon:</p>
<ul>
<li>behavioral kinesiology and</li>
<li>energy psychology</li>
</ul>
<p>I liked it so much I moved from Montana to Florida and have just completed my certification as a Core Health Facilitator.</p>
<p>This is the most comprehensive and effective system I have ever studied and I want to teach anyone  &#8211; who is sincerely ready for a change in their life &#8211; how to change their lives with new energy decisions that are permanent.</p>
<blockquote><p>Find out more about <a href="http://corehealthfacilitator.wordpress.com/2010/01/07/core-health-workshops-and-training/" target="_blank">Core Health Workshops</a> and Heart Forgiveness and Funny with Money for 2010 and make this the year you become a Healthy Boomer. Workshops forming right now in the Sarasota, Nokomis, St Petersburg and Tampa areas.</p></blockquote>
<p>We travel to your city for group trainings. We also do <strong>corporate training</strong> to achieve enhanced workplace productivity through more conscious employees, better working relationships, less absenteeism, and increased energy levels.</p>
<p>Get in touch on the contact page and let&#8217;s talk.</p>
<p>We do win-win in a big way and we love our work.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p></p><p>Healthy Wealthy Boomer is back on the radar with a lot to say&#8230;</p>
<p>After 35+ years of search and study &#8211; looking for the best ways to achieve comprehensive natural health most effectively, I finally found what I have been looking for:</p>
<ul>
<blockquote>
<li>Core Health</li>
<li>Heart Forgiveness</li>
<li>Funny With Money</li>
</blockquote>
</ul>
<p>My discovery is <strong>THE</strong> ultimate Baby Boomer<strong> </strong>natural health solution and over the next few months we&#8217;ll fill you in on the details. This system is endorsed by both Dr. Bruce Lipton and Gregg Braden.</p>
<p>The last six months have been an accelerated period of energy expansion and learning. During that time I have been an active participant in 7 weekend sessions of intensive training in Energy Essentials facilitator certification courses.</p>
<p>I am eager to tell you about my experiences as a student of Core Health, Heart Forgiveness and Funny with Money. As of this date, I am now a certified Core Health Facilitator, Heart Forgiveness Facilitator and a Funny with Money Facilitator.</p>
<p>There are so many meaningful relationships that have grown out of this training as well as so many wonderful experiences.</p>
<p>Dr. Ed Carlson is the founder of Energy Essentials. He has become my mentor, trainer and a dear friend. Dr. Ed is one of those rare individuals that is both a research medical professional and an intuitive. He is driven by the desire to contribute and make a difference in humanity.</p>
<p>Core Health, also known as comprehensive kinesiology, is a system of energy expansion based on principles and functional applications of kinesiology, cutting edge biology and quantum physics.</p>
<p>Core Health is all about energy.</p>
<blockquote><p>Life energy flows through plants, animals and people as a function of aliveness. When we cut a flower from a bush, it starts to wilt.</p>
<p>Life energy show up as an heart EKG and a brain EEG &#8211; no waves, no life.</p>
<p>We can measure what enhances life energy and what diminishes it and the simple measuring device is your arm.</p></blockquote>
<p>Core Health is a system to clean out all the energetic and emotional junk and debris accumulated throughout our life. We free up and clear our true core of health that we were born with.</p>
<p>Heart Forgiveness is a system to remove and clear the anger we have been carrying around most of our lives &#8211; whether we are aware of it or not. Once we remove the anger, forgiveness is easy &#8211; forgiving others and most importantly forgiving ourselves.</p>
<p>Funny With Money is a workshop that consciously teaches us how to identify and release all negative programming about money in our lives.</p>
<p>All three are amazing and fun.</p>
<p>Stay tuned for more discussion and stories. In the meantime, you can read a great deal more at this two blogs:</p>
<p><a href="http://corehealthfacilitator.wordpress.com/" target="_blank">Core Health</a> and <a href="http://heartforgiveness.wordpress.com/" target="_blank">Heart Forgiveness</a>.</p>
<p>Nice to be back.</p>
<p>Michael Barrett</p>
