[@leahmoody2174]

Yes Mimi thank you

[@shellykastler37]

Especially love revisiting this now that it is Fall. It amazes me how I can rewatch and something new resonates with me. Today it is the concept of Dignity. Thank you 🙏 I am going to repeat two videos for the next several days: The Elements, then this Metal practice. 🥰

[@jhouriet]

thankyou❤ that was so refreshing. the temple is gorgeous, as is the instructor!

[@MimiKuoDeemer]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@Joannabanana1989]

[@MimiKuoDeemer]

[@shellykastler37]

Ahhhh…thank you! My life is now complete! Thank you. 🙏 I was so happy to see this to add to the other elements practice.

[@MimiKuoDeemer]

Glad it was helpful! Enjoy :)

[@73topforever]

Thank you Mimi! I am here in Israel, in a middle of a war that started on 7/10/2023. These 15 minutes qigong practice were escapism from the hard days we are facing right now. Exercise is definitely a great way to calm down and take our eyes off the media screen.

Mimi Kuo Deeemer, I'm still in the gap. You are one of my favorite teachers. A cordial greeting, and thanks a lot to you for being there, at all times.

[@MimiKuoDeemer]

I am touched. thank you for sharing. Keep practicing

[@laurakerr7532]

Like so many others who have commented already, the timing is remarkable. This morning I decided it was time for me to focus on the grief aspect of metal and autumn. I wasn't quite sure of the description in your wonderful book of 'hands breathing lungs', so I returned to your video channel to see what I could find and there it was, like a gift. By the time we arrived in this video at hands in front, pointing down with palms facing outward, I was awash in tears. And relief. Thank you, Mimi.

[@MimiKuoDeemer]

thank you for this lovely comment Laura - I so appreciate it! Thank you for being here :)

[@DebbyLooney-pw3qw]

Thank you for this Mimi, I had been hoping you might put up a 'metal element ' video, and am so pleased you have. Your videos, the practices - and especially the beautifully worded/spoken intentions- have changed my life. Anxiety is a feeling of the past, clarity, peace and calm are the feelings of the present. I am indebted to you. Your books are also an inspiration....thank you

[@MimiKuoDeemer]

Thank you for sharing this Debby, so beautiful to hear how much the practice has changed your life. Keep at it

[@annrogers9716]

I just came across this by chance, looking at blood type activities and it resonates so well, I have a practice to add to the new life I am asking for in this time of change on mother earth, one for my spirit and body, at a time of Autumn here in the southern hemisphere, thank you Mimi

[@MimiKuoDeemer]

I am so glad to hear it helps!

[@AndrewUKLondon]

Wonderful. Thank you for this (completing the five elements with your wood, earth, fire and water videos). And thank you for all of your videos, books and classes!

Lovely to have you here Clare!

[@sunrequiem]

I had to put my cat to sleep yesterday...it was a super hunter's moon, very large and bright. I delighted in the tiger walk and stretch, and holding the moon in this exercise sequence. Helped me to work through the seasonal grief of fall and the relational grief of separation.

[@MimiKuoDeemer]

I am so sorry for your loss, I am glad these practices have supported your processed in some way.

Powerful, thank you. 🙏 The location is also beautiful, it would be very interesting to see a bit of it. Assuming that one of the reasons you chose it is the tranquil, peaceful atmosphere. It must have been a great (fun?) surprise when the procession appeared. Too bad we can't hear them! Love your work, your books, your humble, peaceful demeanor. Thank you for sharing.

[@MimiKuoDeemer]

Thank you for writing :) yes it is a beautiful location indeed, and a wonderful place to practice. You might just have to go and visit there yourself for the atmosphere and the sounds!

Dear Mimi, Season’s Greetings for a healthy and joyful year for you and your loved ones. I want to thank you deeply for these beautiful practices and your wisdom in explaining the symbology behind the different actions. Your explanations around the symbollic meaning of the movements have added so much to my enjoyment and feelings of connection with my daily qigong practice. I hope to follow your Instagram page if you have one an also note you have written a book which hopefully I will be able to purchase during the year. Meanwhile I will appreciate and very much look forward to your daily practices. Sheree, Sydney Australia. Writer, artist, person healing from mast cell disease and vision loss.

[@Fairie1974]

Thank you, Mimi! For all the five element qi gong practices as well as the 8 brocades. I've been sick with metastatic breast cancer. I'm also just became a licensed acupuncturist, which is timely cause I've been working on grief and letting go. And I must tell you that I've been suffering from asthma and constipation for almost all my life and through this without any help from meds, on my second day of practice this metal qi gong, I was able to have a bowel movement. It's not perfect but I feel so good being able to let go of the grief I've been feeling and holding on. I know it's just the beginning, but I'm aware it takes time. Much love and light! Thank you so much for doing this! ❤😇🤩🙏 Also, I'm wondering if you know or do microcosm macrocosm meditation as well.

[@MimiKuoDeemer]

I am so touched to read this and hear the practices are supporting you in your healing. It does all take time to have compassion and patience for yourself as you work through the journey.

[@baoradcliffe9738]

[@soheilasadeghzadeh8280]

Thank you Mimi, could you please advise on what types of foods are best to consume to enhance the benefits of these exercises? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

[@MimiKuoDeemer]

Food is very personal so I am not quick to offer nutrition advice. But I do reccomend to always eat something before practicing so you aren't doing Qigong on an empty stomach.

[@melodyshantalasacco2841]

Thank you very much, I often follow your videos and this practice fall exactly into place for where I am. Great support for entering the autumn. Are you doingany workshops? live somewhere?

[@A_Muzik]

Finally. The metal element

[@MimiKuoDeemer]

Yes indeed! Enjoy!

[@VolcanicLioness]

I've been experimenting with doing qigong every morning with a different element. I go in order of elements everyday. I've noticed that this one really helped me get back into focus. But when I did qigong for the fire element, I was unfocused for a whole day, I had a splitting headache, and I felt kinda tweaked out. Does this mean I have too much fire within me?

[@MimiKuoDeemer]

It could be all sorts of reasons, and it is hard to say without knowing you. But it could mean an imbalance with your fire, try to do more cooling practices.

[@natalieross8836]

P.S I have on my Missouri Tiger sweatshirt and I see now why I have been wearing it so much lately.

[@ELIZABETHEVAANNG]

When should I start the winter water practice ?

[@MimiKuoDeemer]

You can do it any time of year as we have cycles the work daily and monthly and annually!
