April 2026 will take a slightly different approach to the 30-Day Challenge. Each day of the month, I’ll be participating in the 30-Day Tai Chi Coach4aday Challenge. What will be different this time is that my daily posts won’t be limited to that day’s exercises—I want the freedom to share more spontaneous and wide-ranging thoughts along the way.
I will still include the focus of each day’s Tai Chi routine, but much of what I write may explore topics far removed from exercise. Just as Tai Chi is designed to improve flexibility, I hope my writing reflects that same sense of openness and adaptability each day. For Day Nine the thought I am expanding on is the MIRACLE of life.

“Tai Chi” 30 Day Challenge
Searching online for a 30-Day program brought me face to face with lots of options but I have chosen a plan led by Dr Alan Potts PT. You can download the schedule I am utilizing at this link.
It looks like this.

April 9th-Miracle of Life
Before starting Tai Chi this morning, the word flow got stuck in my mind. What kept me anchored to this one thought was the realization of the infinite chain of events that led to my being born. Each of us has a family tree, and that line of ancestry has withstood so much, no matter who we are. Just like in nature, where some environments are harsher than others, we all have ancestors who endured unimaginable challenges.
When you trace the events across the span of human history, it becomes clear—it’s nothing short of a miracle that we are each here. Those events have included wars, plagues, natural disasters, diseases, and countless people who cared for us as babies and children. Simply acknowledging that fact should fill us all with deep gratitude.
I know I’m a living miracle.
