About “Buddha Crane Qigong:”
Sometimes called meditation with movement, Qigong is an ancient practice for overall wellness and relaxation. At a difficult time in life, local Qigong teacher Ray Robertson was meditating in a salt float when suddenly his arms began to move.
He soon learned this movement was a gift. In a special Thin Place between heaven and earth, he was taught a new Qigong system:
Buddha Crane.
In the book, he shares this inspiring story of restoration, vividly recounting his experiences with deep sharing of life experiences, poetry and images. Discover how Buddha Crane is any easy-to-learn system which also has much depth.
The book also features the work of local artists Rahela Laquidara and Kim Leonard.
Price: $21.00
About “Thought on Mindful Living:”
In 2024, Ray began writing a Mindful Living column for the local newspaper, The Gazette-Virginian. The columns are centered around improving life through mindfulness practices.
Although short, his columns also touch upon deep topics, such as grief and dealing with anxiety and other chronic conditions.
Occasionally humorous and insightful, the columns have become a weekly feature. In this book, Ray shares his most popular ones.
One avid reader cuts out the column each week and gives it to a friend who she feels most needs it the most. 
Thoughts on Mindful Living is an excellent gift for others, even those who seldom read books.
Price: $21.00
