The Healing Art and
Science of Qigong – Movement, Meditation, and Breath
Qigong
(pronounced Chi Kung)is an ancient form of self-healing originating in China. It
has been called the mother of Chinese healing and is one the
cornerstones of Traditional Chinese Medicine. Qigong is the
phonetic transcription of two Chinese characters (Qi and
Gong). Qi has been translated to mean vital breath
or life energy, often described as the life force that flows
through all living things. Gong means to cultivate,
work at, or practice.

According
to Chinese Medicine, health means a full and flowing supply
of qi and a balance between the two fundamental influences
of Yin and Yang. When qi does not flow, certain areas of the
body have too much energy (Yang condition); other areas have
too little energy (Yin condition). This imbalance results in
disease. Qigong uses breath control and slow, relaxed
motions to increase the flow of qi in the body. Deep
breathing provides oxygen to the cells, blood and organs,
and helps relax muscles and relieve tension. It also slows
the heart rate and quiets the mind. Concentration along with
continual movement between Yin and Yang (left to right,
forward and back, reaching and bending) helps the qi
circulate.
Qigong,
then, helps to foster a state of mental and physical
wellbeing by restoring balance to the body's life force.
With the practice of Qigong, one acquires the skill of
cultivating, guiding and inducing the body’s vital energy or
qi to promote health and heal disease.
