Soaring Crane
is one of the two most effective forms of qigong for dealing with cancer, as identified by the government of China in an extensive
research study.
It is gentle but very thorough in cleansing the qi meridians and opening acupoints.
Some people
refer to qigong as “do it yourself acupuncture.” It also is known as “moving meditation” because
it promotes deep relaxation and a pattern of brain waves similar to those achieved in sitting meditation.
Level
One of Soaring Crane Qigong includes the following components:
Remedy Routine One, Liver Cleansing
Remedy Routine
Two, Tonification
The Five Routines
Lying Down Meditation, Four Route Relaxation
Lying Down Meditation, Exchanging
Qi with the Universe
In addition to learning the movements, students will receive instruction in the theory of
qigong which is based in Taoist principles and which is the foundation of Chinese medicine. Qigong is a holistic exercise
benefiting body, mind and spirit.
While improving physical health, Qigong promotes a peaceful mind and a more connected,
serene way of being.
