What is Qigong?

Qi (pronounced "chee") = Energy, Gong = Exercise)

Simply put, QiGong is a form of energy exercise that increases your life force for healing and strengthening your body. Anyone, any age, any disability, any level of physical fitness can practice QiGong.

This ancient practice has a written record that dates back to 300 B.C. with "The Yellow Emperor's Classic of Internal Medicine". However, the understanding and manipulation of the body's energetic system dates back over 5000 years. Many years ago archaeologists discovered acupuncture mannequins in China that dated to 5000 years ago, suggesting that this knowledge was in place long before.

We are surrounded by a plasma of energy at all times. As we slow our movements and our minds we become more aware of this energy field. With the slow mindful movements of QiGong we can internalize this infinite source of energy to improve our health, make our bodies stronger and increase our vitality.

More than just an exercise...

There are many ways to cultivate, manipulate and transfer Qi.

  • Through subtle MOVEMENTS we are able to cultivate the energy that surrounds us at all times.
  • Utilizing LIVING FOOD and MEDICINAL PLANTS allows us to increase our vitality and improve our health.
  • Various BREATHING and MEDITATION practices help us manipulate the Qi within our bodies and lives. Forms of MASSAGE and ACUPRESSURE seek to remove blockages of Qi and restore balance to the body.
  • By thoughtfully arranging objects in our home or office we can create an HARMONIOUS ENVIRONMENT that allow the Qi to move more naturally.
  • Constantly seeking to CREATE MIRACLES FOR OTHERS (aka "doing good deeds") withoutany thought of return on investment. Masters know this to be the ultimate way to generate the greatest amount of energy, as it creates Divine or Righteous Qi within our lives.*
