Qigong and Taoist Meditation

​​

Qigong energy movements and Taoist meditation are the very foundation of Chinese medicine health practices, just as yoga is a cornerstone of Ayurvedic medicine. "Qigong" is translated as "cultivation of Qi" or the gathering of energy through using your body's movement and natural energetic connection to Nature. All of our Qigong and Taoist meditation programs are based on the Wu Ming Qigong lineage and created by its lineage holder and grandmaster Dr. Nan Lu, OMD.

​

Qigong itself can be viewed as a type of moving meditation, as it balances the body by quieting the mind and impacting emotions through activating the energy body's meridians. No special breathing or thought-controlling techniques are needed to enter a meditative state, as the nervous system's brainwaves and the endocrine system respond naturally to create stillness and inner peace in the mind. Qigong can be a great way to attain meditation's benefits for those who are too antsy or anxious to sit still and use the mind to let go of one's busy thoughts! 

​

In addition to its calming meditative benefits, Qigong can facilitate emotional and physical health, especially if you want to address chronic issues. It can help you to repair the effects of stress, regain a normal metabolism, and attain a healthy weight. Through stretching, twisting, rhythmic, and balancing aspects that stimulate the meridians in a way similar to receiving acupressure, these gentle energy movements can tune up and rebalance organs that play a crucial role in healthy metabolism function, nervous system regulation, and blood circulation. Healing requires energy and balance, which naturally occurs through Qigong's effects of improving organ function and metabolism.

​

The number one cause of imbalance and metabolism dysregulation is stress. Our Qigong programs are designed to help your body, mind and spirit let go of the effects of stress and repair any wear and tear you have accumulated from years of a stressful lifestyle. 

​

Because Chinese/East Asian medicine is a holistic health system that have long studied every facet of how to improve your health, learning how to change your lifestyle and diet using Taoist principles are important component of our programs. While the cornerstone of our programs are Qigong moving meditation movements, you'll get faster and more profound results by changing lifestyle habits and beliefs as well as your food choices. 

 

The perfect self-care adjunct to acupuncture treatments for wellness and weight loss, our programs will guide you through a transformative self-healing journey you'll never forget. Whether you want to lose weight, heal chronic physical conditions, or improve your mental health, you'll experience the tremendous power and unique capability of your body to self-heal, while looking and feeling the best you've felt in years, even decades.​
