Fayne and I would greatly appreciate your help in sharing about our nonprofit human resilience. 99% of funds go directly to care of those we serve. https://www.northtexasgivingday.org/organization/Human-Resilience


SOMETIMES THE WILLINGNESS IS THERE. THE MONEY ISN’T. Sometimes people are ready to make changes in their lives, but they can’t afford the support that would help them begin—or keep going. Human Resilience helps Veterans, First Responders, educators, healthcare workers, s...

Every day I’m reminded that healing is not a solo path. It grows in community, in shared stories, and in the courage to show up for one another. That is why I am honored to host December’s Qi Talks panel, a conversation I believe many people need right now.

On December 11, a remarkable group of Qigong teachers and military veterans will come together to share how Qigong has supported recovery from PTSD, chronic pain, emotional strain, and the challenges of post-service life. Their voices and experiences are powerful reminders of what resilience can look like when mind, body, and community reconnect.

You’ll hear from Clayton Crosley, Chris Bouguyon, Fayne Bouguyon, Judy Chancey, and Michael DeMolina, along with special guest veterans who know this work from the inside out.

If you are a veteran, a caregiver, a healthcare professional, or someone seeking grounded ways to support your emotional and energetic well-being, I hope you will join us.

📅 Thursday, December 11
⏰ 8:30 to 10:00 PM Eastern

In this week of uncertainty I found myself wanting to share from how to manage uncertainty and fear through the lens of 5 Element Theory.

This week has been challenging on many fronts. Between local icy weather, power outages, and national news, there is no shortage of events to fixate on and worry about. What is happening? What does it mean? Am I safe? These are all valid questions, yet the one that tends to create the most stagnatio...

Hello SimplyAware Community,

Winter is upon us and with that comes the unpredictable weather and road conditions. As in past, we have your wellness and safety in the forefront of our hearts and minds so we choose to manage our Training Center schedule with an abundance of caution.

As of today, we are closed Monday January 26 and Tuesday January 27. We will post on our website about any further closings this week. (Wednesday is up in the air right now)
We post notices in a bright yellow box as our primary way of letting you know our current status.

We are working on Kidney Energy and Water Element right now and this "SNICE STORM" (As I am coining this mess) which gives un an opportunity to train based on the season.

This is a time of quiescence, rest and recovery. Here are some ideas to make the most of this situation.

Practice Meditation - I recommend some of my work on Insight Timer or choose from a huge collection of teachers offerings on this the world leading meditation app.

Gentle Qigong - I recommend Golden Ball Qigong or simply do some focused breath work.

Read a Book - I recommend The Tao Of Pooh as a light, enjoyable read. Another wonderful book is Peace is Every Step by my spiritual teacher - Thich Nhat Hanh.

Complete a Puzzle - There are some WONDERFUL OPTIONS on Amazon. (Although delivery may be an issue today. ;-))

Stimulate your Creativity - Do some drawing, watercolor, paint, woodworking.

Play a Board Game - This is a family favorite for us. here are a few favorites.
Clank In Space
Sangrada
WingSpan

With some much going on in the world today that can manifest stress, take time today to regroup, reset and recharge with this direct invitation from nature.

Stay warm, stay safe and be well.
