About qi gong

Qi Gong, also known as “Life Energy Cultivation”, is a mind-body practice that integrates postures, movement, breathing techniques, and focused intention. It improves mental and physical health by creating greater alignment between the movement of mind, body and spirit and cultivating equilibrium in all aspects of our being.

Qi (or Chi, pronounced chee), is often defined as breath of life, or the vital life force energy that flows through all things in the universe, and is the central underlying principle in traditional Chinese medicine and martial arts. 
Gong (or kung) is often translated as the work or cultivation of self-discipline and achievement.
Together, the two words Qi Gong 汽功 describe systems to cultivate and balance life energy, especially for health.

Medical Qi Gong is therefore a potent holistic healing system, offering tools and techniques both for healing your body and raising your consciousness. The oldest therapeutic modality of Chinese medicine, it is based in the ancient wisdom of observation of the laws of nature and in the application of this wisdom to diagnosing the habitual patterns of each person, both in their physical and mental body.

Just as our modern culture and way of living has disturbed and destroyed the natural balance of many ecosystems, our own personal ecosystem – that integrated whole which is our body, mind and spirit – is also susceptible to imbalance throughout our lifetime. These imbalances can arise from poor diet, a sedentary lifestyle, injuries, surgeries, environmental pollutants and aging, but also from the suppression of emotions and negative thought patterns. The goal of Qi Gong is to correct these imbalances and blockages so as to enable the body to strengthen and regulate the internal organs, the nervous system and the immune system, as well as to relieve pain, regulate hormones, and strengthen and release deep-seated emotions and stress.

Qi Gong is not a cure-all, but a highly effective health care practice that engages the entire being and challenges us to take full responsibility for our health and wellness. An excellent adjunct to Western medicine, Qi Gong is often recommended by health care professionals as an important form of complementary and alternative medicine, beneficial in treating many conditions which Western medicine finds resistant or ambiguous.
for me, it was the opportunity to treat vertebra problems, and to realize also that Qi gong is a real and a wonderful complete personal development tool... and i am only at the beginning... just on my way !
