Ten years ago, I discovered Qigong.
I’d already reversed my diabetes by then. Already lost the weight. Already proven the doctors wrong with real food and resistance stretching.
But Qigong? That became my all-day, every-day movement.
Here’s why.
It’s simple. It’s tied to your breath. And it makes everything else in your body work better.
I start every morning with 5-10 minutes while my coffee brews. Just moving with my breath, waking up my body.
Then at 8am, I lead a class that combines Qigong with resistance stretching.
Throughout the day, I’ll stand up and do a quick routine. Sometimes I’ll pull up a video and follow my instructor for 20 or 30 minutes.
No gym. No equipment. No mind-numbing exercise.
Just movement and breath.
And my body feels better at 72 than it did at 55.
Now, I know what you’re thinking.
Qigong looks too easy. Too slow. Like it couldn’t possibly do anything.
Qigong is moving your body with your breath while tapping into the energy field around you.
Sounds woowoo, I know.
