Do you find your mind whirling a lot lately? Do you feel hurried or tired? According to the teachings of Wisdom Healing Qigong, these feelings are simply a sign to come back home in body, mind, and heart.

Like yoga from India and Tibetan Buddhism that migrated to the West, China’s cultural treasure—the energy practice of qigong—has a history that extends back into ancient times. Research from China and the United States, including at the Chi Center, shows that a wide variety of conditions can be improved with regular qigong practice. Long-term practice (100 days plus) shows even better results.

Wisdom Healing Qigong helps you discover the ability to awaken joy, healing, and vitality within, through connecting with the energy that flows through all life. My teacher, Grandmaster and Dr. Pang, the founder of Wisdom Healing Qigong, taught that more practice can yield deeper results.

For centuries, qigong masters shared these teachings with only a few dedicated students, but during the 1970s, qigong started to be shared and embraced by millions. With the continued bustle of modern day living today, qigong is being taught around the world and online, in response to a rising need by people who want to take personal responsibility to live a healthier life.

What is Wisdom Healing Qigong?

In Chinese, qi means "vitality or life force." Gong means "the practice of." Wisdom Healing Qigong is a form of qigong focused on renewing health, joy, and vitality of mind, body, and heart.

Through gentle movement, meditation, healing sounds, and visualization, this form of qigong awakens awareness and connection with qi. Through dedicated practice, you learn to direct this life energy to your mind, body, and heart to stay renewed and to support healing, including for stress and chronic illnesses.

Here are four easy steps to start a Wisdom Healing Qigong journey to relax and focus a busy mind.

1. Relax Into This Moment
   Qigong is called the gentle practice. Find a quiet place, such as an elevator or your car, and whisper the ancient chant, “Hao-la” (pronounced how-lah). This chant translates to: “all is well, so be it.” This opens and calms the mind to accept that we are okay, and the world is okay in this moment.
2. Renew the Body
   Qigong is called the moving meditation. The pace of modern life confines us to our desk, our car, and our smart devices. It is time to move the body gently. Start with the Spinal Bone Marrow Movement from Wisdom Healing Qigong. This gentle Qigong practice increases back flexibility and strength, and improves balance. Watch this video to see a demonstration. 
3. Release the Stress
   Qigong is called the joyful practice. Emotional health is a cornerstone of wellness in qigong. When we expand our capacity for joy, then our body, mind, and heart move through life open to more possibility, and not depleted by worry. Begin to release the stressful effects in your daily life from constant email and newsfeeds by chanting the ancient healing qigong sound for the heart: “Xin” (pronounced “sheen”).
4. Reconnect With Your Best Life
   Qigong is called the healing practice. Wisdom Healing Qigong trains us to connect with chi, the life energy in and around us, to heal ourselves and our world. Start to develop a morning practice to help focus on well-being and the good works you can do this day.
