Hi Everyone 👋, As you know, I spent twenty years living, studying and working in China, where I studied Traditional Chinese Medicine, Daoism, Buddhism, Qigong, and, after many years of martial arts training in multiple disciplines, I know the benefits that Qigong and Tai Chi can have on our physical and mental health and general wellbeing. So I'm excited to bring you a series of 'Qigong and Tai Chi practices' from famous Masters in China. These practices will certainly benefit you, and to keep it simple, I will post a link to the YouTube platform for you to enjoy. So to start off with a simple practice, 'Vermilion Bird Dancing'. This is Form 3, one of the 4 forms of the Four Symbols Qigong series. This video is filmed with one master and one student, in order to bring a genuine in-person-like learning feeling that helps practitioners experience the moves deeply. Here is the link With Love ❤️ Always Mark

Hi Everyone 👋 Let me tell you about something that saved me without making a sound.... When I was studying Traditional Chinese Medicine in China, we had to learn Qigong as part of our daily training in medicine, it was for two reasons: one for our own health, to support our long days of study (it's relentless in China, looooong, loooong days of theory, heads in books and lectures) and the second was to help us understand hi Qi is cultivated and how gentle movement works within to support our bodies. Qigong (chee-kung). Maybe you've heard the word. Maybe it sounds like another thing to learn. But stay with me....😊 A little history first Over four thousand years ago, somewhere in the misty mountains of ancient China, some quiet souls noticed something. They watched the mist rise from the valley. They watched their own breath mist in the cold air. And they started to see that everything moves. The rivers. The clouds. The blood in their own hands. They called this movement Qi. Life breath. The invisible river that flows through every living thing. No one invented Qigong. It grew like bamboo. Farmers noticed that certain stretches helped their backs. Healers noticed that sick people who moved slowly and breathed deeply got better faster. Monks in the mountains noticed that sitting still all day made their joints stiff, so they started moving before meditation. Over centuries, it became a map. A map of the invisible river inside you. The medicine connection Traditional Chinese Medicine isn't like Western medicine. We don't just treat the symptom. We look at the whole garden. In TCM, illness is not a broken part. It's a blockage. A place where the Qi got stuck like a log in a stream. Qigong is the gentle hand that moves the log. Not forcing. Not pushing. Just inviting the river to flow again. Depression? Often stagnant Qi in the liver. Anxiety? Qi rising when it should settle. Fatigue? Qi that leaked out and never came home. You don't need to believe this. Just watch what happens to your own body when you slow down and breathe. That tightness in your chest? After five minutes of slow, soft movement? It loosens. Every time.
