Qigong

Qigong is a 5,000-year-old energy healing art form that strengthens the flow of life force and improves health. Its recent surge in popularity has been a result of Qigong’s fun and dynamic movements of practice. Qigong, unlike traditional exercise, boosts muscle and strength yet amazingly, lowers cortisol and will enhance all other forms of energy therapy.

From a scientific perspective, Qigong’s healing power is well documented and does what no other form of exercise can do. While remaining in a calm focused and relaxed state, the body is exercising, which allows blood and Qi to move through blockages, opening meridians and clearing pathways to healthier circulation. Regardless of a person’s beliefs or cultural background, Qigong yields the same result: enhanced vitality and a clearer relationship with the True Source of that energy. There is a miraculous universe of Qi within each and every human being. Qigong is the practice of becoming more intimately aware of the miraculous energy that sustains all of our lives.

Qigong Healing & Breathing Applications

Using simple breathing techniques, free-standing and wuji movement, Qigong, (pronounced cheegung) although seemingly gentle, is a powerful healing art form. As magnetic energy fields are created and formed in a slow graceful manner, Supreme Science QiGong yields a strong “Qi Feeling” in minutes, is felt in the hands and body, and has been noted to be one of the most tangible experiences of spiritual life force energy. Imagine the same blood circulation one gets from jogging while standing still and completely relaxed. Focusing on breath, meditation and movement techniques to increase life force energy, a personal or group qigong practice purifies the blood, builds strength and circulates grand life force qi throughout the body and beyond.
