Born in Shanghai, China, Gayook escaped from Communism at age 3 ½. She offers a unique approach in teaching qigong, successfully integrating both eastern and western cultures into her life. Descended from a paternal lineage of qigong healers, she has practiced qigong to heal from cancer, physical and sexual abuse. Her western training and experience include 29 years of clinical psychotherapy with trauma survivors, specifically with survivors of child sexual and physical abuse, rape, and domestic violence. She was also an organizational consultant with  AT&T and Lucent Technology, dealing with issues of racism, sexism and homophobia.  Gayook taught qigong in the Wellness Center at Castle Medical Center in Oahu, Hawaii. Since moving to Los Angeles, she has worked in adult day health care centers, successfully facilitating qigong meditations to heal senior war veterans,  prisoners of war, and political prisoners who suffer from post-traumatic stress disorder (ptsd).  She now sees individuals privately and teaches classes. She and her adult children, Jennifer and Matthew, are co-authors along with Deepak Chopra and Wayne Dyer in Amazon’s Top Ten List, Wake Up and Live the Life You Love, Seizing Your Success.
