Qi To Life Wellness

Understanding Qigong

Qi “chee” is the life energy or power that exists in nature and all living things or objects in elemental form. Qi animates all forms of life, including human beings, powering every cell, tissue, and organ through a network system called meridians. The meridians connect internal organs.

Qi “chee” must be cleansed, captured, and circulated freely throughout the body to promote health and sustain vitality. It is the very essence of life and the foundation of longevity. Gong “goong” means work or the benefit of practice. Together, the words “Qi” and “Gong” suggest energy cultivation over time and imply dedication to practice.

WHY

If you’re looking to enhance your well-being, Qigong could be an excellent starting point in managing today’s fast-paced and stressful world. Practices like Qigong can indeed offer a comprehensive way to address various aspects of health, from the physical to the emotional and spiritual.

HOW

By releasing blockages in the body’s energy pathways, or meridians, Qigong techniques can promote better circulation of life-force energy, or Qi, throughout the body. This improved flow can lead to a sense of balance and vitality, which in turn can support healing and overall well-being.

BENEFITS

Incorporating time-proven practices like Qigong into our daily routines can help us navigate the challenges and stresses of modern life more effectively. It’s about reconnecting with our bodies, minds, and spirits in a way that honors their interconnectedness and supports our natural rhythms and vitality.

Qigong Beyond Fitness

Harmonizing Body, Mind, and Spirit

Qigong is an ancient Chinese art that seamlessly integrates specific body movements, breathing techniques, and focused intention to cultivate vital energy, or “Qi,” throughout the body. Rooted in Traditional Chinese Medicine and philosophy, this practice unifies body, breath, and mind, fostering a harmonious flow of energy that promotes health and well-being. This integration distinguishes Qigong from traditional fitness practices as they only emphasize physical endurance, while this ancient practice enhances both physical and mental vitality.

Exploring Dao Yin Yang Sheng Gong – The Style

I immersed myself in the study of Dao Yin Yang Sheng Gong under the guidance of Grandmaster Armen Minasyan, founder of the Harmonie Ansbach Centre for Holistic Health and Exercise. It was here that I first experienced the power of Qi and the profound healing potential of this practice (Qigong).

Its founder, Professor Zhang Guangde at the Beijing University of Physical Education, devoted four decades to refining his distinctive system of movement, seamlessly integrating the core principles of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) with contemporary understandings of anatomy and physiology. His approach also draws upon the teachings of the I Ching, the ancient philosophical text, enriching the practice with deep layers of wisdom and insight.

The program has earned numerous accolades, including the National Prize for Technical Progress in Physical Education. It is also integrated into the Chinese national program focused on improving public health.

This comprehensive system integrates smooth, flowing movements, controlled breathing, acupressure, massage, and stretching exercises, creating a holistic approach to health. Some exercises target specific organs, toning and strengthening them, while others promote overall flexibility and circulation of vital energy (Qi), fostering harmony between mind, body, and spirit.

Practicing Dao Yin Yang Sheng Gong not only enhances physical vitality, but also sharpens memory, concentration, coordination, and balance. By calming the nervous system and harmonizing the stress response, it supports mental clarity and emotional well-being. This strengthens the immune system, improves digestion, and boosts overall health, offering a holistic path to inner peace and long-lasting vitality.

I've been taking Qigong with Yolanda for several weeks. This simple one-hour class pays off in a big way. Relaxation and a general sense of calmness! The slow gentle movements are perfect for us seniors. Qigong helps me with focus and concentration.

Helen

I have been practicing Qigong with Sifu Lana for almost 4 months and I can comfortably say the journey with her has been a very good one. I enjoy her class because she ensures her students are keeping up and understanding what they are doing during her practice. Even though it has only been a few months since I started practicing Qigong, I do feel a subtle shift and a better alignment with my body that will surely become more noticeable with time.

H.S.

I have been practicing Qigong with Lana Barnes since May. I have rheumatoid arthritis and fibromyalgia; the exercises are gentle enough for me to do. The benefits of the class are numerous; the flow of energy throughout the body, muscle strengthening and flexibility, and better quality of sleep. Lana is a gentle and caring soul. It is a pleasure taking her classes.
