If we've got a body and behavior component, do we need to do something with that? And that might have included diet and nutrition. Ben Calder  You know, I see quite a number of people in their 60s and 70s. And almost the number one thing that they will tell me is that the doctor has told them that they can expect it because of their age. And at that point, I want to slap that doctor and just say, No, that's not true. Ben Calder  You know, give yourself a decade to master a level of Qigong, and it's not a quick fix, and you may not even feel it in the first 2,3,4 sessions. You know, the Chinese would traditionally say 100 days of practice to start feeling your chi and then the rest of your life to master it.   ABOUT BEN CALDER: I have for many years had an interest in how people tick & the ability of the body and mind to restore its self naturally to optimum health given the right motivation. I specialise in assessing health and well-being and generating solutions to improve your vitality, functionality and capability so we can deliver 100% of the passion that drives us in a vehicle; your body/mind; fit for purpose. I can provide both physical and mental health re-training to help you be an effective captain of your industry using a range of integral and holistic approaches in a bespoke program to suit your aims and needs. I can offer classes and training in mindful movement, meditation, personal and relationship dynamics and communication to help make you and your team better at doing what they do best. I run regular meditation and LifeForce Qigong classes. I facilitate Shadow Self workshops on the hidden aspects of communication dynamics, Integral Relationship groups and have also lead classes on personal development, self-help techniques and a men’s support group. I have delivered keynote speeches to support groups, development circles, business networking groups, medical and health conferences. I can speak on a range of health-related topics to illuminate how a focus on personal health can liberate and elevate business and life. Core purpose/passion: I’m really passionate about people taking responsibility for their health choices and how their behaviour has a direct impact on not only themselves, but on the world and life around them.
