 CHI KUNG IN THE COMMUNITY

 

 

What is Chi Kung?

Chi Kung (“chee- gong”) is an ancient Chinese health care system that combines physical movements with deep breathing and focused intention, to maintain your health, vitality and well-being.

“Chi” means life force energy, “Kung” means work, discipline; together they mean the cultivation of life force energy, your internal energy.

Benefits:

• Boosts your energy  
• Reduces your stress
• Lowers your blood pressure
• Strengthens your immune system
• Improves your balance and flexibility
• Enables you to cope with every day stresses
• Speeds up your healing process and recovery time from illness/ injury
• Enhances your awareness of your body and the universe

Chi Kung creates an awareness of, and influences, dimensions of your being that are not part of traditional exercise programs.

The uniqueness of Chi Kung is that it involves the meridian system used in acupuncture, and emphasizes the importance of adding mind intent and breathing techniques to your physical movements.
The gentle, rhythmic movements of Chi Kung reduce stress, build stamina, increase vitality, and enhance your immune system. It has also been proven to improve cardiovascular, respiratory, circulatory, lymphatic and digestive functions.

Long-term benefits:
If you maintain a consistent practice of Chi Kung you will find that it helps you regain a youthful vitality, maintain health even into old age and helps speed recovery from illness.
Western scientific research confirms that Chi Kung reduces hypertension and the incidence of falling in the aged population.
One of the more important long-term effects is that Chi Kung re-establishes your body/mind/soul connection.

People do Chi Kung to maintain health, heal their bodies, calm their minds, and reconnect with their spirit.
When these three aspects of your being are integrated, it encourages a positive outlook on life and helps eliminate harmful attitudes and behaviours.
It also creates a balanced life style, which brings you greater harmony, stability, and enjoyment.
