Guest guest Posted April 24, 2002 Report Share Posted April 24, 2002 Hi Phil, the newspaper in Grand Rapids, MI had an article on a school that has implemented the use of karate and meditation within their school curriculum. I am not sure when it was in there, but you can get on their web site and go through the archives I know it has been within the last 6 months. It is called the Grand Rapids Press and is located in Grand Rapids, MI. Good Luck tunedpsw <lusiphur wrote: Hi,My name is Phil. I've been on the list for a while, but I don't talk much. I practice a chinese meditation/healing discipline, karate, kung fu, and a little yoga. I've also been dabbling with crystal energy, mostly on myself.I'm a graduating senior at the university of maryland. I'm doing two research papers and was wondering if anyone out there would be able to help.The first is for my teaching internship. I was looking for any studies or articles on how martial arts, yoga, or meditation affect one's health, ambition, focus and motivation. If possible I'd really be interested in studies or articles on how those practices have affected some aspect of scholastic education. Either the practice and effect on of a group of students, individual students, Or anything about any schools that might have implemented those practices as part of a course of study.The second is for my rhetoric in religion class. I'm comparing the old western ways of speaking about god, the soul and spirit against the eastern Chi, and ki and the new terms of energy, vibrations, connection, and awareness. If anyone knows of any authors or articles that either compare those types of rhetoric, or use the latter two in discussing god, the universe and how to live, please email me with the information.I appreciate any help you might be able to offer on this search. Please send any info to tunedpswthanksPhil**************************************************WWW.PEACEFULMIND.COM Sponsors Alternative Answers-HEALING NATURALLY- this is the premise of HOLISTIC HEALTH.

Guest guest Posted April 24, 2002 Report Share Posted April 24, 2002 Phil, I'm an alumni of the University of Maryland (at College Park). I can't think of anything that will help you with your research, but I just wanted to say that your projects sound very interesting--more interesting than anything I did while I was a student there. How is Maryland these days?? Is the Terrapin still there? Do people still rub his nose for luck?? I miss that place every once in a while. Good luck to you. I'd love to read your work when it's done. Best regards, Lynne Z. The world is your kaleidoscope, and the varying combinations of colors that at every succeeding moment it presents to you are the exquisitely adjusted pictures of your ever-moving thoughts. ~~~James Allen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
