Mark Johnson – Life as Play

Aired Thursday, April 29, 2021, at 5:00 PM PST / 8:00 PM EST

In my mid-thirties, something interesting happened. An inadvertent transformation took place when I started studying yoga to relieve a back issue. In the joy of this new learning and the friendships that ensued, a series of synchronicities blessed my life. Each new opportunity to engage and share this energy with others was healing on so many levels and reopened a sense of joy and wonder that I had put aside in my teens.

My guest this week on Vox Novus, Mark Johnson, took a six-decade-long global spiritual journey, that culminated with his new book, and initiation into a Life of Play. Mark encourages us to take the plunge into the unknown and mystery of our lives where every action becomes an effortless, appropriate response to whatever life brings us. Mark Johnson is a semi-retired Tai Ji and Chi Gung instructor and healer. He continues to judge Tai Ji tournaments regularly, serves on the Advisory Council to the National Qigong Association, and leads Daoist retreats to China and Tibet yearly. Mark has studied and practiced Eastern Philosophy for more than 45 years and has apprenticed with some of the most prominent Vedanta, Zen and Daoist teachers in the world. He has been a member and research subject at the Institute of Noetic Sciences for nearly 15 years. His best-selling Tai Chi for Seniors video and other instructional DVDs are available through his online company. His websites include https://daopublishing.com/ and https://taichiforseniorsvideo.com/, and he joins me this week to share his path and his new book, Life as Play.
