One of the fundamental precepts of Tai Chi is to be like water.
Imagine battling addiction and then finding out your health woes are due to Lyme Disease. That’s exactly what happened to Paul Sheffer. In this episode of Beyond Recovery, Matt Gardiner chats with Paul about his remarkable journey to sobriety, which spans over three decades. But it wasn’t just quitting alcohol that transformed Paul’s life; it was also the ancient practice of Tai Chi.
Struggling with poor health even after a year of sobriety, Paul discovered he had Lyme Disease, a diagnosis that changed his approach to healing. Tai Chi became his sanctuary, helping him manage pain and find inner peace. Paul's story is filled with rich anecdotes, like his softball analogy, and practical advice for those navigating their own recovery. He emphasizes the importance of community and the serendipitous moments that guide us.
If you’re curious about how Tai Chi can aid in recovery or need some inspiration on your own path, Paul’s insights are a must-listen.
