Her research interests in meditative movement, pain physiology, interoception, and self- and co-regulation have led Josie to concentrate on sharing meditative movement with clients and audiences that experience chronic pain. The depth of healing and awakened sense of freedom she has witnessed in people with chronic pain who practice meditative movement are a source of constant inspiration.

    2: Tai Chi Ambassador Rod Fergueson and the need for Community engagement

    Welcome to In Difficult Times - and in todays episode we talk to Rod Fergueson Rod is based in Australia and has been a full-time professional Tai Chi and Qigong teacher for over 45 years. He not only has a deep knowledge of these arts but has an infectious enthusiasm that emerges in an ‘easy-to-understand' exploration of practical techniques. Rod’s emphasis on teaching in a way that really makes sense to ordinary people, distinguishes him from many in the mind/body community. Rod has lectured and taught not only in Australia but also in the United States, South Africa and New Zealand. He has been a driving force to ensure that both Traditional and Applied Tai Chi and Qigong are accessible to people of all abilities from Olympic athletes to the frail elderly in aged care. What comes over in this illuminating interview is Rods approach, his commitment to community care and his work with local and state governments in securing funding and promotion to provide free and low-cost classes. Rod is truly an ambassador of the art. So, sit back and enjoy a talk with Rod Fergueson.

The total number of Covid deaths in the whole of Australia is 910 (not 90) - 820 of these cases were in the state of Victoria (so 90 in all the other states combined). The number of deaths in my state of Queensland is 7, I was correct about that.
