This gentle yet powerful practice will reinforce the previous weeks' clearing and healing, enabling you to fully integrate, transform and realign with your life purpose!
What is QiGong?
QiGong (often spelt Chi Kung) is a powerful type of health exercise, which has been practised for centuries by millions of Chinese people. It is based on repetitions of very precise sets of movements, specifically designed to benefit health on many different levels.
​
QiGong is easy to learn and enjoyable to do. Even a few minutes of practise can have an invigorating and rejuvenating effect. Regular practice brings about a deep strengthening effect for the whole body and its various systems (nervous, digestive, respiratory, skeleton-muscular, hormonal, gynaecological, etc).
​
The aim of QiGong is to promote the movement of Qi/Chi (energy) in the body; this is done by opening certain gates and stretching and twisting energy channels. A key point in QiGong practice is relaxation and deep breathing, both of which are prerequisites to allow Qi to flow.
QiGong classes
I also offer QiGong classes where I teach the Shibashi system and also a brand new system known as Golden Spine.
Shibashi in Chinese means “18 movements” and is a system of Qigong developed by Master Lin Hou Sheng in the latter half of the Twentieth century. The movements are simple and easy to learn and build into a powerful, gentle form of exercise that takes only fifteen to twenty minutes to perform.
Golden Spine is a set of movements based around energising the spine. It was developed by Blue Marsden of the Holistic Healing College in London and I am one of the first cohort to be trained in teaching it.
The benefits of QiGong
QiGong can have a powerful effect on mind, body and spirit. Reported benefits have included increased general health and well being, reduced levels of stress, and a brighter and more balanced outlook on life's possibilities.
​
During your session, we will do some exercises to get the Qi moving and release any blockages before moving into the flowing movements of the Shibashi system.
