Quick Win: The daily ritual that helped Lisa Leong to find peace of mind

from How I Work · host Amantha Imber

Lisa Leong doesn’t do things by halves - if she’s worried she might not be getting enough sunlight in the dead of Melbourne winter, she goes out and buys an infrared desk light. If she learns cold therapy might be beneficial, she jumps into a sub-zero cryotherapy chamber.  So when the ABC Broadcaster started feeling a disconnect between her mind and body, she didn’t just start practicing Qigong (a meditative martial arts practice similar to Tai Chi). No, she wanted to learn it from the master himself, Robert Peng.  She thought she might be in luck, because the Chinese healer was brought to Australia by… Bob Hawke? But by the time Lisa wanted to learn, Peng had moved to New York. So naturally, Lisa flew across the world to spend ten days under his tutelage!  Lisa shares why she felt compelled to learn Qigong, what she learned from Robert Peng, and how Bob Hawke fits into the story!
