Lee's suggestions for tinnitus In a recent live video class, a student asked Lee, "What do you suggest for tinnitus?" If you're not familiar with tinnitus, it's commonly described as a ringing sound, but some people hear other types of sounds, such as roaring, buzzing, or the chirping of "crickets." The problem is tinnitus is a completely subjective experience. Meaning other people can't hear it. It can negatively impact someone's concentration, their ability to enjoy reading, or getting a good night's sleep. And according to the National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders, severe cases can lead to anxiety and depression. These are Lee's suggestions for tinnitus: How you address tinnitus depends on what's causing it. If you've been around loud music, construction, or other loud noises, it's different than if it's hormonal or internal energy. But there are a couple of simple things you can do to support your ears right now without having to pinpoint the exact cause. One thing you can do is tonify your kidney energy. Because the ears are governed by the kidneys and your kidneys control hearing. Another thing you can do is to send energy to your ears after your Qi Gong practice. You can do that by cupping your palms over your ears after each practice. Imagine energy flowing into your ears. You can also try massaging the acupressure points around the ears. There's one right behind your ear lobes. Try to massage them a little every day to help relax the muscles around your ears and jaw. Lee will teach some of these exercises in the upcoming Qi Gong for Healthy Hearing Workshop. He'll also introduce some ear-healing approaches he didn't mention above, such as Fire Element Qi Gong flows to target specific types of ear problems. When combined, these exercises form a TCM-based ear health "system" you can safely do every day. If you're ready to get relief from tinnitus, hear more clearly, and bring healing energy to the ears… Click the link in bio or visit our Facebook page to check out the Qi Gong for Healthy Hearing Workshop on June 2nd.

Scientific Study shows Qi Gong relieves "Ringing Ears" Did you know some researchers have studied the effects of Qi Gong on tinnitus? In a 2010 study published in the Journal of Psychosomatic Research, researchers found that "the practice of Qi Gong over a short period of five weeks induces significant changes in tinnitus." They went on to share the results of the study "Qigong did not cause any side effects and was completed by 80% of the assigned patients. Compared with the control group, Qigong participants experienced improvement in tinnitus severity...In the subgroup of patients with somatosensoric tinnitus, Qigong effects were more pronounced, resulting in a highly significant improvement in both scales compared to the waiting-list group." The researchers came to the following conclusion: "These findings suggest that Qigong interventions could be a useful complement to the therapeutic management of patients with tinnitus and especially for those with somatosensoric components. Satisfaction with the intervention, a high degree of completion, and stability of the effects for at least 3 months after the intervention further underscore the potential of Qigong in the treatment of tinnitus." In the upcoming Qi Gong for Healthy Hearing workshop, you'll learn similar Qi Gong exercises, self-massage techniques, and acupressure points to bring blood and healing energy to your ears. One student learning similar exercises from Lee on YouTube left this comment: "Thank you so much for these exercises! My tinnitus decreased right after doing this for the first time!

[Video] Carpal tunnel relief Carpal tunnel can be painful, even excruciatingly so at times. Things like typing, writing, reading, knitting, cooking, or gardening can become a chore and keep us from experiencing the joy and fulfillment these activities normally give us. If you're suffering from carpal tunnel and feel hopeless, we understand. Carpal tunnel attacks the parts of the body we use the most, so it's no wonder it affects us so deeply. But fear not. Lee has you covered. In this two-minute video set in breathtaking Yosemite National Park, Lee teaches three simple Qi Gong exercises to get relief from pain caused by carpal tunnel and improve the flow of Qi in the arms, wrists, and hands.

"How often should I practice Qi Gong?" (answered) Here's the answer to how often to practice Qi Gong: It depends. There are always variables that have to be considered, right? So, to answer this question to the level you deserve, here are several options: Option 1: Whatever You Can Some Qi Gong is better than no Qi Gong whatsoever. So, even if you can't fit in the recommended minimum below, do whatever you can, as often as you can. Even one minute of practice is 100% more than no minutes of practice. We recommend you shoot for about seven minutes. This is just enough time to start to relax your nervous system. A good place to start are the seven-minute routines in our 30-Day Challenge, visit our Facebook page for the link. Option 2: The Recommended Minimum That said, Lee recommends students practice Qi Gong for a minimum of 20 minutes a session, three times per week. That's 60 minutes of practice per week total. However, the more often you practice and the longer you practice in each session, the better chance you have of achieving desired results faster. Option 3: The Ideal For most people, the ideal schedule is 60 minutes a session, three times per week. That's three hours of practice per week. This is generally how often Lee teaches and how many classes we release each week. With three times a week at 60 minutes per session, you'll start to notice results faster. Why is it ideal to practice for 60 minutes three times a week? We've noticed that 60 minutes per session is the "sweet spot" for physical, emotional, and even spiritual growth. At 60 minutes, you accelerate healing and sustain higher levels of energy. And when you keep showing up on that schedule, your results compound. (Just like interest compounds and grows your financial wealth.) As it happens, students practice Qi Gong for around 60 minutes a session three times a week in Lee's Qi Gong classes. The additional 60 minutes are the Q&A sessions with Lee and time to connect with your fellow students. Click the link in bio "Free Qi Gong Classes" to learn more.

Energy vampires "Energy vampires" are all around us. (This is Max, one of the writers.) These are people or things that drain energy. They usually clamor for your attention. They can be friends, family members, neighbors, strangers at the grocery store, or the talking head on the news. Here are some simple ways to protect yourself from being drained by energy vampires: 1. Get some physical distance from them This one comes straight from the expert on the subject, Judith Orloff. Judith is a board-certified psychiatrist and author of the bestselling book The Empath's Survival Guide. Even if you don't identify as an empath, it's best to heed these words of wisdom when you find yourself too close to an energy vampire. 2. Put down the phone I recently realized that when I'm looking at my phone, scrolling through social media, or reading the news, I'm involuntarily opening my energy field to all sorts of energy vampires. These are people who leave nasty comments or tell me how bad everything is in the world. One of the biggest keys to protecting your energy from vampires these days is to put down your phone as often as possible. Replace that time with other activities you love, like gardening, knitting, painting, playing an instrument, and spending time with people who fill you with positive energy. 3. Practice Iron Shirt Qi Gong Iron Shirt Qi Gong is used to protect against the emotional and physical stresses of modern-day life. We're hosting the Iron Shirt Online Course cohort starting May 13th. Click the link in bio or visit our Facebook page to learn more and enroll. 4. Breathe Judith Orloff says, "If you suspect you are picking up someone else's negativity, concentrate on your breath for a few minutes. In contrast, holding your breath keeps negativity lodged in your body. To purify fear and pain, exhale stress and inhale calm. Picture unwholesome emotions as a gray fog lifting from your body and wellness as a clear light entering it." FYI - There's a whole section on breathing techniques in the Iron Shirt Course. The cohort starts on May 13th. Click the link in bio or visit our Facebook page to learn more.

Announcing! The Iron Shirt Online Course Cohort The Iron Shirt Online Course 2024 Cohort is now open for enrollment, click the link in bio or visit our Facebook page for the link to learn more and sign up. Shaolin monks first practiced Iron Shirt Qi Gong to protect themselves from invading armies. Today, we have different reasons to protect ourselves. The personal battles we fight today are not against invading armies. Rather, they are against external energetic forces. It's become imperative to be able to withstand the emotional blows of modern life and negative energy from others. Iron Shirt Qi Gong builds the "inner structures" you need so your Qi can flow freely and you can build strength, power, and abundant energy. The Iron Shirt Qi Gong Online Course contains all three Iron Shirt practices: - Standing Meditations & Postures: Nourish and fortify your internal organs. Protect against injury and disease - Tendon Nei Gong: Strengthen and heal tendons, ligaments, and connective tissue - Bone Marrow Nei Gong: Revive bone marrow to reverse the effects of aging The Iron Shirt Online Course is perfect for people who want to be able to protect themselves from the negative energy of others. If you're a highly sensitive person (HSP), the Iron Shirt practice will help you protect yourself on physical, energetic, emotional, and psychic levels. This is a "cohort style" course. That means Lee won't teach it live. Instead, you'll go through the course with fellow students by attending up to three Practice Parties every week and completing content on your own schedule. Practice Parties are where students practice the routines from inside the course together on Zoom. These are not recorded as we are simply watching the content from inside the course. You'll also get two live group Q&A calls with Lee so you can get your questions answered. In some ways, this format is even better than a live course because it gives you more space between lessons to study and learn the material. The Iron Shirt Online Course 2024 Cohort starts on May 13th. Click the link in bio or visit our Facebook Page for the direct link to learn more and enroll:

Lee on Iron Shirt (+training on 5/8) We asked Lee to elaborate on Iron Shirt before the free training tomorrow, May 8th, click the link in bio or visit our Facebook page for the direct link to sign up. Here's what he shared: The world around us can often be stressful. We get stressed from things like the news, politics, harm to the environment, and personal stresses from our family, relationships, jobs, and finances. These external stressors make us feel overwhelmed, activate our fight or flight mode, and sometimes even cause illness. Iron Shirt helps us deal with this stress. Originally, Iron Shirt was a martial practice that started in Shaolin temples in ancient China. These Shaolin monks, mainly Buddhists who practiced kindness and compassion, needed to protect themselves. Anytime a dynasty changed in China, the new powers would wipe out the previous culture and eliminate the current religious and spiritual practices. Oftentimes, the Shaolin temples would be on well-sought-after land, so the Shaolin monks and spiritual beings needed a practice to protect themselves. Iron Shirt training was one of those practices. Today, we're in a very different place than the Shaolin monks 2,000 years ago. We are in a completely different culture with a different set of energetic circumstances. Even though we don't need to use this practice to defend ourselves against invading armies, we can use it to ward off stress, increase energy, and give ourselves a sense of empowerment. Click the link in bio or visit our Facebook page for the direct link to join Lee for Introduction to Iron Shirt Training tomorrow, May 8th at 10 a.m. Pacific. It's suitable for anyone of any skill level. #LeeHolden #HoldenQiGong #LeeHoldenQiGong #qigong #qigongpractice #qigonghealing #qigongtraining #qigongforhealth #qigonglife #qigongclass #qigonglifestyle #ironshirstqigong #qigongdaily #qigongenergy #qigongclass #qigongonline #ironshirt #chikung #martialarts #martialarts #martialartslife #martialartstraining #martialartslifestyle #martialartsfitness #martialartsonline #shaolin #shaolinstyle #shaolinmaster #shaolintraining #shaolinqigong

"Stop crying" At some point in our lives, we've all been told to stop feeling something. We've been told to "Stop crying. Stop yelling. Stop feeling angry," usually by our parents. But it really doesn't work to tell someone to "stop feeling" something they're feeling. Feelings just don't work like that. Kids know. It's intuitive. Emotions and feelings need to be expressed. Once expressed, they are transformed. It's the words "stop crying" that can shut us down and create blocked energy, which can make us sick. We internalize what our parents, partners, teachers, friends, and co-workers say to us. We learn, "It's not okay to cry. It's not okay to EXPRESS myself." Usually, it's because society doesn't teach us how to work with our emotions… and support others as they navigate their emotions. In Qi Gong, we often nurture the yin energy within ourselves. Yin is the "feminine" energy. It's soft, watery, and yielding. The flowing movements you practice in a routine are generally yin movements. They help bring water to the joints so you can move without pain. But you need a healthy balance between yin and yang movements, or your body won't have the strength or integrity to move and not injure yourself. Yang provides the structure your body needs to withstand injuries, blows, and unexpected falls. The same goes for your internal state and emotions. You need a healthy balance of yin to flow with life, but you also need active yang energy to protect yourself from the emotional blows you encounter daily. Shaolin Monks first practiced Iron Shirt Qi Gong to protect their bodies from the trials of combat. Now it's practiced to protect the physical and emotional body from unexpected injury, disease, and the stress of modern life. Practitioners who use the Iron Shirt practice say they gain more emotional stability, feel grounded even in stressful situations, and can easily feel, process, and release emotional energy.

Is the Teacher Certification Program really worth it? Back in May of last year, Karen D. asked this question about the Teacher Certification Program in the Holden QiGong Facebook group: "I'm thinking about the teacher training. Not sure I can afford it but I'd love to know if it's really worth it for someone who wants to learn deeply but isn't likely to become a teacher." Here are some of the responses she received: "I totally understand your doubts. These were my exact thoughts when I was in doubt back then. I decided to go for it, thinking teaching wouldn't be my thing but I really wanted to dive in deep into Qi Gong and understand more. It turned out to be the best decision I ever made. Not only is the program amazing, with great content, all the masterclasses, all the support, and a qi family to go with it. I turned out to be so enthusiastic that I really wanted to share so I ended up teaching. Last month I did some group classes and it felt totally right. But even if I wouldn't teach, I would still be very grateful for what I learned and am still learning." -Petra E "I have a couple of friends who did it for this reason and found it so worthwhile. I teach but the main thing I got out of it was my own understanding and growth. Once you are in the program you get ongoing masterclasses every month and lifetime access, and Q&A sessions with Lee each month just for the teachers whether you are teaching or not. I revisit the material frequently." -Sharon N. "I joined just for me with no intention of teaching and love it. There's so much information already there from Lee and more keeps being added with master classes by other fantastic teachers. There are Q&As with Lee each month. There's fantastic support behind the scenes as well as in the Facebook community." -Chele W. You can enroll simply to deepen your Qi Gong knowledge and understanding and never teach professionally. Or, you can use this training to create a new source of income-sharing wellness and prevention. The Teacher Certification Program Sale ends tonight at 11:59 p.m. PST.

Ever wonder how teaching Qi Gong could help support your other businesses? Well, in this video, Master Qi Gong teacher Lee Holden shares how teaching Qi Gong catalyzed his healing businesses. He's taught Qi Gong for over 30 years… and he's never had a "real" job. Teaching Qi Gong helped him establish all of his other businesses. He's run an acupuncture clinic, a massage studio, and several other healing businesses. Teaching Qi Gong has helped him launch and support whichever business he was growing at the time. Visit our Facebook Page for the direct link to watch the video or click the link in our bio "Holden QiGong YouTube Channel" and search for 'How Teaching Qi Gong Catalyzed My Healing Businesses' to watch. And if you're interested in learning to teach Qi Gong yourself, you can get $500 off our Online Holden QiGong Teacher Certification Program until April 21st.

Five Reasons to Become a Qi Gong Teacher Here are five common reasons our students choose to become Holden QiGong teachers: 1. Share Your Practice With Others If you're already a regular Qi Gong practitioner, you know how amazing it is in so many ways. Wouldn't you love being able to share your practice with others? Being a teacher allows you to spread the magic to friends, partners, family, loved ones, and stranger. You never know who is going to walk away from your class with a life-changing experience. 2. Help Heal The "Healthcare Crisis" By Giving The Power To The People As individuals, we need to take it upon ourselves to practice our own preventative medicine. By helping others cultivate self-care practices, you are directly contributing to individual empowerment, while reducing society's dependence on a broken healthcare system. 3. Help Vulnerable Populations There are people needing our help, and being a Qi Gong teacher puts you in a unique position to heal the planet. Qi Gong helps to calm the nervous system, reducing the occurrence of mental health episodes in suffering patients. Additionally, it is completely non-invasive and has no side effects. 4. Provide An Alternative (And Addition) To Yoga Many Qi Gong teachers have a rich Yoga background, by offering Qi Gong, you're able to provide another self-practice that touches people on a deep level. 5. Cultivate Your Own Practice Without a doubt, becoming a Qi Gong teacher is the single best way to cultivate your own practice. Your own personal practice will never be the same after learning the wealth of knowledge that Lee has to share. If you've read this far, you know that Qi Gong is far more than a relaxing leisurely activity. It's a profound spiritual path with the potential to empower individuals and change lives. If you've been on the fence about becoming a Qi Gong teacher, right now is the best and most affordable time to deepen your practice and understanding of Qi Gong. You have until 11:59 p.m. Pacific on April 21st to get $500 USD off the entire Self-Paced Online Qi Gong Teacher Certification Program. Click the link in bio to learn more and sign up.

Why Teachers Training Students get Certified and DON'T Teach A while back, Chele shared a kind note with us about why she had no interest in teaching after completing the Holden QiGong Teacher Certification Program. She said, "I've signed up to do the Certification Program but I want to let you know I don't plan to be teaching it when I finish. This is mainly for my own health and to spread the healthy Qi word with family and friends. I started with the 30 days of 7 minutes a day and was so glad when you then had your other series I was able to download. I'm really looking forward to testing my brain (which is part of my health issues) and having access to all this amazing Qi Gong information." Some of our teacher certification students don't have any plans to teach whatsoever. They're simply in love with Qi Gong and want to learn more about why and how the practice works. Like Marga Fripp. She said, "I am a student in the Teacher Certification Program, and I love to practice Qi Gong for my own well-being, to help others feel good in their bodies, and to cultivate more energy, joy, and inner peace. "Thank you for creating this amazing opportunity for all of us who want to deepen our own practice and serve in the world." Everyone has a different reason for enrolling. Some people don't want to teach. Some of our students just want to deepen their practice, increase their knowledge of natural self-healing practices, or improve their emotional balance. So, if you're excited about the idea of taking the Teacher Certification Program but have no interest in teaching after you complete it… It's still the right program for you. Right now, the Online Qi Gong Teacher Certification Program is $500 USD off until 11:59 p.m. Pacific on June 10th. If you've been thinking about enrolling, it's the most cost-effective time to do so. Click the link in bio to enroll in the Self-Paced Online Qi Gong Teacher Certification Program and get $500 off until April 21st (Even if you don't plan to teach after you finish).

[Blog] Angela MacLeod's Story of Becoming a Qi Gong Teacher When asked why Qi Gong is important to her, Angela MacLeod responds with confidence and clarity: "It's the foundation of my life." Like for so many of Lee's students, Qi Gong has become a cornerstone of her daily schedule and an invaluable resource for her happiness and wellbeing. Today, Angela loves teaching others the practices that have helped her, but her Qi Gong path started long before she stepped into the role of teacher. Over a lifetime of somatic exploration and growth, Angela has learned not only how to help others in deep and meaningful ways, but also how to become personally empowered in a variety of ways through her Qi Gong practice. Visit our Facebook page (link in bio) to get the direct link to read the full blog. Talk soon, The Holden QiGong Team www.HoldenQiGong.com P.S. Want to hear more stories similar to Angela's?

Qi Gong in the Middle East (Lina's story) Lina Bajandooh worked in the advertising industry for years and it took a toll on her health. She said, "I developed chronic stress and anxiety symptoms along with chronic neck, shoulder and leg pain." She was looking for a way out of advertising, so she became a life coach. As she looked to add movement-based modalities to her life coaching practice, she discovered Lee's YouTube videos. She practiced the routines in the video and started experiencing results, so she joined one of his online courses. She shared, "After I practiced some courses with Lee, my perspective and experience with Qi Gong moved onto the next levels and became a part of my daily life." Lina specialized in trauma-informed embodiment and somatic coaching in her life coaching work. After finding Qi Gong, she now had the perfect practice to complement it. She told us, "I decided to make Qi Gong the primary tool in my coaching practice. I wanted to hone my knowledge and earn a certification to be able to teach this wonderful practice to people and especially to women in the Middle East and around the world. That was when I took the decision to join the Holden QiGong Teacher Certification Program." She shared, "Becoming a Certified Holden Qi Gong Teacher was one of the best decisions I ever took in my life! "I'm now a fully equipped instructor with deep knowledge of Taoist and Qi Gong philosophy, forms, and techniques and skilled at creating and facilitating effective classes. I currently teach group Qi Gong classes and private Qi Gong sessions. "This program is a wonderful package not only for people who aim to teach, but also for whoever wants to improve their personal health and wellbeing, gain a better understanding of the fundamental principles of Qi Gong, and learn different effective forms and techniques to improve the quality of their life." @embodimentwithlina has been practicing Qi Gong since 2018. She became a Holden Qi Gong certified teacher in September of 2023 and now teaches private and group Qi Gong classes in Beirut, Lebanon.

Is this the "perfect warm-up"? Most people do a warm-up before doing workouts like weightlifting, running, biking, etc. Warm-ups often involve some kind of stretching, but a lot of times they can lack flow. Take warm-ups for running, for example. Oftentimes a runner will do pulsing bends to stretch their hamstrings or shake out their legs and that's it. All of which is okay and is better than not stretching at all, but there are more optimal ways to energize the body before a workout. This is where Qi Gong comes in, specifically the Blue Dragon Qi Gong form. (We'll get to Blue Dragon in a moment…) Qi Gong is a wonderful practice to do before a workout because it gently awakens your body and puts you in a state of flow. This flow enhances your ability to stay present during your workout, which can help reduce the chance of injury. Now, any Qi Gong routine could be used as a good warmup, but one of the best sequences is the Blue Dragon Qi Gong form. The dance-like movements found in this form help energy flow into every part of your body, from your legs to your arms, to your head. In our upcoming Blue Dragon Qi Gong workshop on April 7th, Lee is sharing this entire form. And while you can practice any of the movements as a warm-up, they're also perfectly suited to do on their own as an entire Qi Gong practice.

We want our energy to flow evenly, smoothly, and fully. To accomplish this, we need to prepare our body to move in the same way we want our energy to move: in smooth, even flows. Blue Dragon is one of the best forms for unlocking deeper Qi flow in our body. That's because it contains not only flows, but stretches, warmups, and breathing exercises. Click the link in bio to learn more. Because of its ability to help gently awaken the body and release tension, Blue Dragon is a great way to warm up before another Qi Gong routine.

Power What's the first thing you think of when you hear the word power? Maybe your mind pictures lightning or a big blast of raw electricity. Or you imagine hurricanes, earthquakes, and tornados. But there's another thing that people associate with power. Dragons. Dragons have often represented very powerful yang energy. They're depicted breathing fire and igniting fear in the hearts of those who face them. However, this is usually the Western view of Dragons. In the Eastern view, they're often depicted as powerful creatures of flow and balance. While yang power is direct and forceful, yin power is soft and subtle. Yin power is the vibrating electricity in the space where all that yang power stuff happens. It's the slow gentle force that creates life, heals wounds, and helps create Qi flow through your meridians. So while Dragons are extremely strong and powerful, they also have a subtle flow and grace that we can learn from, and mirror in our movements. Which is exactly what we'll be doing in our upcoming Blue Dragon Qi Gong Workshop on April 7th, click the link in bio to learn more or visit our Facebook page for the direct link. Not only will Lee teach the entire Blue Dragon Qi Gong form, but we'll explore all the lessons and insights the dragon has to teach us. Blue Dragon is a graceful "dance-like" Qi Gong form that features a unique combination of stretching, warmups, breathing, and flowing exercises, most of which naturally involve tendon work. It helps open your meridians to more yin power with stretches, twists, and flows. The free-flowing energy nourishes your internal organs, supercharging your body with vitality.

Swimming Dragon is made up of spiraling and coiling movements that mirror a dragon swimming in water. You use naturally opposing forces to build strength and resiliency. Blue Dragon is a longer Qi Gong form that includes a variety of techniques in one form. It is also slightly more fluid, graceful, and dance-like than Swimming Dragon. It focuses on expanding capacity in your meridians (energy channels) to allow for maximum Qi flow to your organs. . . . . #QiGongEveryday #LeeHolden #HoldenQiGong #LeeHoldenQiGong #qigong #qigongpractice #qigonghealing #energyhealing #qigongtraining #qigongforhealth #qigonglife #qigongforeveryone #qigongtherapy #qigonglifestyle #qigongmeditation #qigongflow #qigongdaily #qigongclasses #qigongclass #qigongisawesome #qigongonline #internalarts #bluedragon #dragonqigong

Seeing a deer leap elegantly through the forest or a bird soar gracefully overhead can easily evoke feelings of inspiration and appreciation. "While most civilizations throughout history have revered animals' powerful gifts, some traditions have sought to harness their positive qualities through intentional practices. One of these practices originated in ancient China and is known as Five Animal Frolics Qi Gong.

The History of the Five Animal Frolics QiGong Form The Five Animal Frolics Qi Gong form originated by mirroring the movements of wild animals. This practice began long, long ago in China, and naturally has a deep and rich history in Traditional Chinese Medicine. As Lee says, "people flowed like the river, swayed like trees in the wind, and moved like wild animals." In this video, Qi Gong Master Lee Holden shares the history of the Five Animal Frolics.

Lee on the Five Animal Frolics (Training on 3/13) Today, we'd like to share Lee's story about how he discovered the Five Animal Frolics. He also shares the rewards he's received from the practice: I learned Five Animal Frolics from a Chinese man in San Francisco. He didn't speak a word of English, so I learned the entire set without learning any of the names. I only heard the name of the form years later. The Five Animal Frolics form was easy for me to learn because it was fun. When something is fun, you just want to do it more. The more I practiced, the more flexible and strong I felt. I got a big boost of energy, too. I'm excited to show you the Five Animal Frolics Qi Gong form. You'll learn the specific movements associated with each animal: Tiger, Bear, Deer, Monkey, and Bird… and how the movements of each animal support the health of specific organs and keep you energized, resilient, and emotionally balanced.

Doing vs playing Qi Gong: What's the difference? East and West view Qi Gong in different ways. Westerners usually say, "I do Qi Gong," whereas, according to Lee, the Chinese translation is "I play Qi Gong." Even if Westerners say, "I practice Qi Gong," it doesn't make much room for the idea of play. It's a small distinction, but seeing Qi Gong more like Eastern practitioners do can unlock a whole new level of enjoyment for your Qi Gong "play." No matter where you're from or what your culture is, kids play. They run, jump, skip, and swing to their heart's content. But when they get older, kids become adults and get these un-fun things called "responsibilities." We've all been there… Instead of prioritizing play, we get bogged down with stuff we feel we need to do: chores, errands, bills, etc. And while those things are necessary, they don't bring us a ton of joy. In fact, most times, our to-do list just stresses us out. You see? We call it a "to-do" list. Not a "to-play" list. The Western way is to constantly do, do, and do. But most of the time, doing doesn't leave room for play. Play is essential for living a fun and joyful life. Eastern Qi Gong practitioners, while they have their own adult responsibilities, haven't lost sight of this. They know play isn't just for kids. It's for adults, too! But the thing is, play doesn't just happen on its own. We need to cultivate playfulness. That's where the Five Animal Frolics comes in. This ancient Qi Gong form is the pure embodiment of "the art of playfulness." It's not a coincidence that, as students play and move like a tiger, bear, deer, monkey, and bird… They also report greater strength, more flexibility, and a stronger flow of healing energy.

Surprising ways we sabotage our Qi You'll often hear Lee say something like, "Transform stress into vitality." This transformation often happens naturally through the course of your Qi Gong practice. But how do you transform stress into vitality if you live with fatigue? Meaning, if you're constantly exhausted and simply the THOUGHT of any effort wears you out, where do you begin? To answer the question, it might be helpful to take a look at what NOT to do. Lee recently identified the three most common mistakes he sees people make when struggling with fatigue and getting their energy back. Let's start with the most obvious: 1. Trying to manage energy levels with coffee and other stimulants This one is everywhere in our society. A Starbucks coffee in hand is practically a symbol of alertness, productivity, quick energy, and getting things done. There's nothing wrong with coffee, green tea, or other stimulants. But too much coffee and caffeine can give you false energy, which can actually dig you deeper into fatigue. So what most people need is a gentle, non-stimulant-based energy replenishment strategy. 2. Not moving much Lack of movement may be the biggest stumbling block of all for people struggling with low energy. When you're tired it's extremely difficult to move. But if you sit or lay down all day, Qi becomes stagnant and it becomes even harder to get yourself in motion again. The key is to gently move your body in ways that are nourishing. Not too much, not too little. It's like a "Goldilocks zone" of movement and energy circulation. And it's what Lee teaches in the Qi Gong for Fatigue workshop, click the link in bio to learn more. In the Qi Gong for Fatigue Workshop Lee will share an easy-to-follow roadmap to help you naturally boost your energy levels. It's a great alternative to coffee and other stimulants, and a wonderful way to protect and replenish your Qi. The Qi Gong for Fatigue pre-recorded workshop is ON SALE NOW for 25% off.

These four eye healing stories are incredible Qi Gong really does help people heal their eyes. But don't take it from us. Here are a few stories straight from students about the positive impact Qi Gong has had on their eye health: "I just got back from today's eye exam and for the first time EVER, my eyes IMPROVED!!! I squarely put that on QG (Qi Gong) and all I've learned from Lee. Thank you!!! I am flying right now. I need new glasses, but they are weaker ones, for the first time in my life. This stuff works!!" -Barbara Freebird Nowlin "My sight improved by just practicing "normal" Qi Gong, not even special exercises for the eyes. I was really astonished." -Birgit Kaiser-Fernane "Just had my eye exam and for the first time in years my eyesight stayed the same. Hard to believe but I believe practicing qigong has had a lot to do with it." -Dora Torres Hanford "I am 75 years old. The doctors do not have words to explain this significant improvement in my vision… I believe my sight has improved because of QiGong." -John Harvey When the students above first started practicing Qi Gong, they probably thought it would help them have more energy, relieve stress, and calm their minds. But they probably didn't think in a million years Qi Gong would help them improve their vision of all things. It's one of the best surprises anyone can ask for, especially as they enter their wisdom years and eye health becomes a greater concern. That's the beauty of Qi Gong. It can help people heal in the most unexpected yet exciting ways. The average Qi Gong routine merely scratches the surface when it comes to keeping the eyes clear and healthy. Turns out there's an entire set of practices based on Traditional Chinese Medicine specifically designed to help your eyes. One such practice involves tonifying the specific organs that support eye health. Another uses targeted eye exercises and acupressure points to relieve eye strain and fatigue.
