The Essence of the Break

Breaks are important for everyone.
These are the times to gather energy.

Who works without breaks is quickly exhausted.
It is like running without catching air.
Then you are soon out of breath.

It is like standing still for an instant,
to prepare for what is to come.

This is how to act thoughtfully,
avoid mistakes, do more,
without wearing yourself out and more efficient.

In daily life we need breaks.
We have to plan them.
Otherwise our life is all over with
before we even noticed.

Zhineng Qigong helps us in the meditative part
to insert these breaks into our life.

A break is an interruption
of a sequence by an action.
We are doing something, helping ourselves.
