Qigong is the process of working with energy. It is a form of Tai Chi that works on clearing blockages in the meridians. In Chinese medicine, the meridians run throughout the body and affect the various organ systems. If blockages are not cleared the result is discomfort and disease.
There are approximately 1000 different forms of Qigong. The form I study, practice and teach is Tai Chi Shibashi Qigong. “Shibashi” includes 18 exercises which are done in a sequence as you move with the breath in a fluid and beautiful way. It is considered a moving meditation. It is both easy to learn and practice. Anyone of any age can benefit. If a person has mobility issues, the exercises can be done in a seated position.
Some of the highlighted benefits are:
- Enhances overall health
- Relaxes mind and body
- Restores balance, energy and posture
- Increases flexibility
- Improves breathing and circulation
- Eases tension and Stiffness
- Enhances wellbeing and vitality
