Qigong Basics: Five Element Practices for Health and Wellbeing
Warmups for Joints and Organs + Five Elements Qigong + Five Element Mudras and Finishing Forms
Qigong (chi kung) is an energy and intention-based practice that works with the principles of xing ming
shuang xiu, meaning ‘the body and spirt are equally cultivated and refined’. Qi means ‘life force’ and
gong means ‘to cultivate or build’. Thus qigong is the cultivation of life energy. While sometimes our qi can
be healthy, balanced and flowing, when we are stressed, tense, or unwell, it can become stuck, stagnant,
deficient or excessive. Regular practice of the sequences in this element-based qigong series can help
maintain or rebalance the flow of energy in your body, supporting its innate ability to abide in a more
balanced, healthy, natural state.
