How the World Tai Chi Qigong Day came about : Bill Douglas - founder

Revealing the intuitive signals that led Bill Douglas to create the World Tai Chi Qigong Day (WTCQD) 25 years ago. Here, he shares science on the effects of Qigong, Tai Chi, Yoga, Meditation and Mindfulness on health and introduces the Global Transformation Project.

How did the idea for the WTCQD happen? 

* Saw how Qi-practice was blowing medical Drs minds. 

* Researching the medical research via the internet was overwhelmingly in favour of the  positive effects on Mind-Body system

* The media wasn’t in the least bit interested that this could change the lives of millions of people.

* Meditating when an idea came him to create a mass Tai Chi exhibition. Hosted in the visually spectacular Nelson Atkins Art Museum in Kansas City. As envisioning, he could see this was much more than 1 event. 

* CNN covered the event in 1998 which lit the fuse for WTCQD to expand across the world

* Similar to how the Global Transformation Project showed itself

*  Preventative pro-active healthcare with the 'Big 5' Tai Chi and Qigong, Yoga, Mindfulness and Meditation

What is true health care? How can encourage each other?

* Current healthcare system is blocked to the solutions even to realised scientific studies. Less that .5% funding goes to complementary health care in the U.S. .

* Results of Shingles vaccination study found that the Tai Chi group had 50% more helper T-cells than the control group did.  Natural immunity building inside. 

* During the Covid crisis, they looked at frontline healthcare workers who are exposed to all the different variants, and found that the healthcare workers that caught Covid had fewer helper T-cells and CB 4 cell counts. The research shows again that Tai Chi Qigong increases helper T-cells and CB4 cell counts.

* The Big 5 Tai Chi Qigong Yoga Meditation and Mindfulness all boost the immune system. Needs to be studied in more depth. 

* Global Transformation Project is aimed at public education. Getting into schools could change immunity of whole planet. 

* Global Conscious Project with Dr. Roger Nelson at Princeton University's research labs measure the effect of global consciousness using random effect generators around the globe, responding to the effect of Princess Diana’s death

* Ultimate realisation that when groups of people come together in a compassionate state of coherent consciousness - the alpha state - they have a BIG impact on planetary consciousness.

* The effect of high frequency is much stronger than the lower frequencies

* Compassion woven into fabric of universe. 

* Results of a study researching people performing both selfish hedonistic acts of pleasure and altruistic acts of pleasure. They found that they both experienced a similar mental high, but the DNA of the people knew the difference. In the DNA of those involved in selfish pleasures, the health expression was degraded. Those involved in altruistic pleasures had a healing effect on the DNA.

* Compassion is woven into every aspect of humanity.

* How we speak to our selves is how we speak to our cells.

I love this information! More in The Gospel of Science' by William Douglas

* Concept of the book is to get mind-body practices into education Science shows that it makes smarter students and actually increases IQ. Improved test scores make healthier students, reduces bullying, increasing the empathy and compassionate parts of the brain and physically reduces stress. 

* 1000’s more meditators and we will really know the effect of us together on the planet.

* Global transformation in a very real way.

Global transformation project this is a opportunity to bring this throughout this time 2022 here we grow we can do this back up with science the experience.

The stress and fear parts of the brain start to shrink when we go into coherent alpha states. Empathy and compassion parts of the brain start expand. A kinder, more compassionate and abundant planet. Saving trillions of dollars on future medical and social costs.
