Greetings!
A common question we ask ourselves in life is "what do I want?" The question that we often don't ask is "why do I want it?"
During my recent travels and teaching with my husband Paul, I was reminded that whatever I'm hoping for in the external world is usually a way to attain some experience of happiness on the inside. What we long for in the material world, whether it's money, fame, or a beloved is a sign for what we long for more deeply in our hearts. It's a clue to help us discover the EXPERIENCE we truly desire. My husband often tells me that I'm always searching for the next adventure, the next opportunity to have a good time or an exhilarating experience of the senses. He says I can track down a free sampling of food in a grocery store with my sixth sense. Or when we land in a new place I head straight to visitor information and pile brochures in my purse! So I asked myself why? What drives this? What is it I'm deeply longing for? On the outside I want an adventure. The experience I'm longing for on the inside is that of freedom, richness and aliveness; the feeling of trying something new brings me excitement and joy, and love for the world around me.
At this point you might be thinking "so I have figured out the deeper longing, now what?"
Having your attention on what you long for in your heart begins to attract more of the things that will give you that experience you really want: Using all of my senses, I imagine the experience and then ask the help
of Grace, the Highest, to allow that feeling to grow, expand and fill my being. If I can get in touch with this deeper desire or quality I begin to attract the vibration of things, people and places that resonate with that. Where it gets tricky is having acceptance for what is brought your way, even if its not in the package you had hoped for, and trusting that it is what you really need....sigh.
The outside experience will have little meaning without the heart being awake to feel it. When the feeling resides in the heart, and fills that space, the need for outside experience becomes less, and the internal experience becomes rich and fulfilling.
Namaste,
Anisha

Origins of Pan Gu Yoga
In 1974, Master Ou came into contact with a Divine Energy and Light, permeating every aspect of his existence. He had no choice but to surrender to this Presence. Over the next 16 years, Master Ou absorbed every type of human suffering imaginable into his own body, where he created the remedy for each of these sufferings. There are two methods he developed so that everyone may receive the benefits of his efforts. The first is the Pan Gu Mystical Qi Gong, developed in 1990. The second is Pan Gu Yoga, developed this past October through a special request and a desire to bring this experience to as many people as possible.
Pan Gu Yoga is a system of yoga that uniquely blends the deep principles of Pan Gu Mystical Qi Gong with the essence of yoga. Both paths share a common purpose, to discover the profound relationship between man, nature and the universe and to be in union with Grace, with Divine Spirit, sharing that Compassion and Kindness with others. The Light, Energy and healing principles of Master Ou's Qi Gong are infused within the movement and breath of a simple yet powerful yoga practice, grounded in love and kindness.
I asked Master Ou Wen Wei to co-create this form with me in hopes of bringing this profound practice and energy to more people around the world. The benefits of Pan Gu Yoga are too numerous to count. The main areas of healing brought through this practice include a strong internal body, regulating and energizing the muscles and tendons, a healthy immune system, a clear, calm and focused mind, balanced emotions, a balanced nervous system, cultivation of spirit, and transformation of heart and soul. The effects of this yoga are cumulative, building a reservoir of peaceful vitality, and continuously strengthening your Divine connection each time you practice. As a practitioner and teacher of Pan Gu Mystical Qi Gong, and co founder of Pan Gu Yoga, I know this to be true, both through my own experiences and those I've heard from hundreds of others.
In the words of Master Ou, "in this practice, your body touches the earth in several ways, but your spirit transcends".
in loving kindness,

Dear Fellow Practitioners, Recently, and in an ongoing fashion, I have had the privilege of working with Paul Fraser. I have benefited from his Medical Qi Gong practice first as a patient and now as a practitioner, and it is with great enthusiasm for and confidence in this healing work that I write to you in hopes of bringing his knowledge and wisdom to North Carolina acupuncturists, psychologists, social workers, other medical professionals and healers. As noted, I can speak from personal experience as to the remarkable transformative nature of these healing arts. Realizing that this course represents a considerable commitment of time and monetary resources, I am certain that through this study and practice we can enhance the effectiveness of our treatments while increasing our own strength and well-being at the same time. Please review the attached course description and brochure. For any questions or comments, and for reserving your spot in the course, please contact me at the phone number or email address below. The first weekend will be September 9, 10, and 11, 2011, with study one weekend every other month with a total of six weekends. (Friday 4-8pm, Sat and Sun 9am-5pm). Tuition will be $2500 and seating is limited to 30. Interested students may take the first weekend which teaches the foundations of this work and may decide if they want to continue with the course in its entirety. The second weekend will be January 13-15, 2012 and every other month after that. Please consult the brochure for the exact dates.
