(Clearwisdom.net) On May 5, 2003, at Ms. Yolanda Gouldsimith's invitation, Falun Gong practitioners of Orange County introduced Falun Dafa to her students.

Ms. Gouldsimith teaches a class to reduce stress and alleviate the fear of exams. Last semester, she encouraged her students to learn Falun Gong at the local practice site. Recently, she contacted the Falun Gong practitioners and invited them to introduce Falun Gong in her class.

During the class, practitioner Mr. Yang talked about his own experiences of how practicing Falun Gong changed his mind and body for the better. He said that Falun Gong allowed him to be able to interact with his colleagues calmly even under a lot of pressure. He also talked about the persecution of Falun Gong in China. Later, the students watched a video program that showed the wide spread of Falun Gong over the last 11 years, allowing the students to have a better understanding of Falun Gong and the practitioners. Finally, the students of various age groups and ethnicities divided into four groups to learn the exercises.
