Swim, Surf & Wellness "Spring will come and so will happiness. Hold on. Life will get warmer" – Anita Krizzan. The Spring Equinox, which arrived in the Northern Hemisphere on March 20, represents change, new beginnings, and balance, which are all things which Mother Nature achieves perfectly. For example, this time of year shows us a nearly equal balance in our light and dark hours - a perfect, natural example of yin and yang energy. Wellness: Speaking of maintaining balance, a growing number of seniors are discovering the health and wellness benefits of Tai Chi and Qigong, a form of mind-body, self-care that requires no equipment or special clothing and it can be done nearly anywhere. A very simplified and easy to follow practice of this ancient mind, body, spirit balancing healing art is called Tai Chi Easy® which is disseminated by practice leaders, trained by the Healer Within Foundation. See the www.healerwithinfoundation.org. The components of Tai Chi Easy™ include: Mindful Movements – gentle exercises that move, relax and stretch the body and increase balance and coordination; Breathing Practices – triggers the de- stressing effects of the Relaxation Response, increases circulation and energy, and enhances the body's natural healing process; Self- Applied Massage – stimulates energy and circulation flow throughout the whole body; Meditation – relaxes the body, centers the mind, and calms the emotions. If you have questions about this practice or you are interested in having this Tai Chi Easy™ brought to OHCC, please contact Dr. Kory Ward, VP SSW Club at korywc@comcast.net. Pool and Spa: The Swim, Surf, & Wellness Club Board continues to monitor the hours for the pool, spa, and appreciates all the enthusiasm and cooperation with abiding by the safe COVID-19 pool plans. They are working closely with the HOA staff to provide input on the reopening of the pool, now that many OHCC residents have had their COVID vaccinations and the COVID-19 safety restrictions are soon to be less stringent. Free Swim Lessons: The Swim, Surf, & Wellness Club swim instructors have indicated their willingness and interest to continue to offer swim lessons to OHCC residents for 2021 in the future.
