QiGong helps us show up in life. Feeling Alive, Embodied & Grounded

The term "qigong" is a combination of two words: "qi," which means "subtle breath" or "vital energy," and "gong," which translates to "skill cultivated through steady practice."

Together, the words describe an age-old practice that harnesses the power of breath, movement, and intention setting to create health and balance within the body.

As a foundational component of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), qigong dates back thousands of years and was first documented in Daoist (Taoist) writings around A.D. 600, though the term "qigong" we use today wasn't formalized until the 1950s.

Qigong is the deepest root of traditional Chinese medicine, as well as traditional Chinese martial art. Most forms of qigong originated from Daoist practices focused on cultivating and maintaining personal health. (Daoism is a religious and philosophical tradition that has been part of Chinese culture for more than 2,000 years.)

Many branches of Qigong have emerged from the original forms. Helen practices modern Qigong that is easy to follow and accessible to people of all ages and vulnerabilities. Practicing Qigong enhances fitness, reduces anxiety and depression, lowers blood pressure, relieves chronic pain, increases injury recovery time, improves immune function and respiratory system, and improves overall well-being.

Enhance Your Life Force Energy

Here are some of the ways that qigong can benefit health:


  1. Reduces stress and anxiety: Qigong involves deep breathing and relaxation techniques that help to reduce stress and anxiety levels. By practicing qigong regularly, individuals can learn to manage their emotions better and develop a greater sense of inner calm and peace.
  2. Boosts the immune system: Research has shown that qigong can stimulate the immune system and increase the production of natural killer cells, which are critical for fighting off infections and diseases.
  3. Improves balance and flexibility: The gentle movements of qigong can help improve balance, flexibility, and coordination. This can be especially beneficial for older adults, who may be at risk of falls and injuries.
  4. Relieves pain: Qigong has been found to be effective in reducing chronic pain, such as back pain, neck pain, and arthritis. It works by reducing inflammation, increasing blood flow, and releasing endorphins, which are natural painkillers.
  5. Improves sleep: Practicing qigong before bedtime can help promote better sleep by reducing stress and promoting relaxation.
  6. Enhances mental clarity and focus: Qigong can improve cognitive function, memory, and concentration, leading to enhanced mental clarity and focus.
  7. Improves cardiovascular health: Qigong can improve cardiovascular health by reducing blood pressure, lowering cholesterol levels, and increasing circulation.


Overall, QiGong is a valuable addition to a healthy lifestyle and can help individuals achieve optimal physical, mental, and spiritual health.
