Dear <<First Name>>,
In case you missed it, 2 weeks ago we had the pleasure to welcome back our former Board Chair Fan LIN who graciously agreed to give us a live version and continuation of our her write up in our Q2 newsletter. Specifically, she delved into her advice of "Eat well, sleep well, exercise well. Think good and do good."
Here is the recording of the final 45 min [password: QZMS] -- apologies for not being able to record the first half.

Fan's talk was not in a lecture style, but very interactive. She asked everyone questions, so everyone participated in the discussion.
At the start, Fan took us through a short meditation exercise to get grounded. We then discussed the role and importance of our eating in our lives, both the quality and choice of the actual food, the context in which we eat, as well as how our meals make us feel.
We also discussed sleep, both the amount and quality, as well as our routines before and after. Luckily, many of our Scholars are enjoying their summer vacations, so they were able to sleep in :)
Finally, we talked about the restorative effects of exercise -- especially done regularly -- regardless of intensity. Running 5-7 km like LI Jia or walking slowly like XIAO Tong or doing yoga 3 times a week like XIONG Yunjie.
We finished with a breathing exercise. We hope that everyone can be more dedicated and mindful in our interaction with the world!

Reminder: Scholars are required to attend at least half of all speaker events. We understand that schedules don't always work, so if you missed one, you can still get attendance credit by watching the video and submit a short essay of 200 words on what you found most interesting and inspiring and what you will apply to your studies and career.
