(Clearwisdom.net) By invitation of the Community Health Clinic, Falun Gong practitioners, as one of the groups who had made significant contributions to health improvement in the local community, demonstrated the Falun Gong exercises on stage at a "No-Smoking Family and Health-Improving Movement" activity in Shuilin Village, Yunlin County, Taiwan on May 23, 2004. This activity also featured experience-sharing about successful efforts to quit smoking, children's dance and an aerobic exercise demo.
This group of Falun Gong practitioners, with an average age of fifty, had been practicing Falun Gong for about two years. Their team leader and head of the village Mr. Cai Yuqing said he had called together villagers to practice Falun Gong in cooperation with the community's health-building project. Falun Gong was warmly welcomed, and many people enjoy improved physical and mental health. One person used to have swollen and stiff hands and had planned to have a surgery, but his disease was cured by practicing Falun Gong.

Falun Gong Practitioners Share Experiences on Stage
Ms. Chen Suzhu, an elementary school principal, is the practitioner who introduced Falun Gong to Chegang Village. In her speech, she attributed the continuous practice of Falun Gong by Chegang villagers to the successful community health-building activity.
Falun Gong also helped people to quit smoking. No one among the more than twenty Falun Gong practitioners smokes. An elderly man in his seventies had been smoking for more than fifty years, but he, too, managed to quit after he learned Falun Dafa.
Ms. Chen said she'd had fifty-eight doctor visits and spent a lot on medical expenses in the year before she started practicing Falun Gong. However, in the past three years of practicing Falun Gong, she had never been sick. The amount saved on medical expenses is tremendous. She recommended Falun Gong to everyone.
Activity Sponsor Appreciated Falun Gong Practitioners' Unselfish Contribution
Ms. Cai Jialing of the Health Clinic in Shuilin Village, Yunlin County said that the Center for Community Health-Building was founded by the clinic with limited resources in July 2000. It would not have made it without community volunteers' great contribution. The first promotion activity in Chegang Village was Falun Gong exercise teaching, which has become the major health-building program in Chegang Village.
