Following an extended period of online learning and separation from a traditional teaching environment, many EFL college/university educators are needing to achieve a level of balance in daily life. Inspired by the work of Mercer & Gregersen (2020), this presentation will introduce a short version of a centuries old method of exercise known as Ba Duan Jin (Eight Pieces of Silk) Qi Gong. Combining gentle stretches, breathing, and meditation, this presentation will enable teachers to attain a sense of calm and create a positive atmosphere in class.
