Chi Kung
Benefits of Practice
The practice of chi kung can enhance all levels of your being - mind, body, heart and spirit. Physically, Chi kung benefits many systems:
- muscular and skeletal
- circulatory
- respiratory
- endocrine
- digestive
- immune
- lymphatic
- metabolic
With regular practice, students achieve greater focus of mind, a sense of inner calm and quietude and of refinement of the spirit.
There are hundreds of individual chi kung practices. Some of them involve no physical movement at all. Many of them incorporate simple physical movements. These practices may be one movement or as many as twenty movements performed in sequence. All of the practices involve breath, visualization, and integration of mind and body. Students need not be physically fit to begin study, in fact, chi kung can be practiced by persons with limited mobility and strength. Chi kung is even for those whose mobility is restricted by arthritis, MS, or other debilitating diseases.
You'll be surprised and delighted to see how just one class per week can make a change - and over time, you'll notice that the benefits 'overflow' into the rest of your life. So why not begin today? Find the style and the teacher that work for you. Then you'll look forward to classes each week and in time you may develop a personal practice in addition to your weekly instruction.
“Teaching and Healing is the work
of my heart and spirit. My intention
is to create a safe and supportive
experience, that “healing place”
which is not so much a physical space
but rather a state of being.”
