WHAT IS QI GONG?
Qigong, chi kung, or chi gung (气功 or 氣功) (pronounced "chee-gung") is a practice of aligning breath, movement and awareness for exercise, healing, and meditation. With roots in Chinese medicine, martial arts, and philosophy, qigong is traditionally viewed as a practice to cultivate and balance qi (chi) or what has been translated as "intrinsic life energy".
Qi Gong provides an entire methodology of healing techniquess that have been successfully applied for thousands of years. To utilize QiGOng is to affect the presence of qi, or energy, in the body and how it relates to emotional spiritual, physical and environmental input.
Qi is present in the body from birth. Afterwards we acquire qi through the ingestion of food, through air, and through constant interaction with our surrounding environment. When there is imbalanced qi in the body, sickness can be a byproduct.
The understanding of qi's impact on the human body has been passed down from gneration to generation as the traditional Chinese medical community researched and successfully implemented the use of QiGong for both preventative and curative functionality. It is used to affect the flow of qi through the entire body. When there is a blockage of qi in the meridian channels, organs, any part of the body QiGong is used to correct the imbalance and permit qi to flow freely. With that correction balance begins to be restored. A regular regimen of QiGong movements can prevent the formation of blocked qi flow. Qi flow is also affected by a perosn's emotional state, spiritual quietude or lack of and peace or turmoil.
