About this Event
What is Qigong?
Qigong is a combination of "Qi" (life-force, bioenergy, creativity, consciousness) and "gong" (cultivation or practice over time). It is a self-initiated health and wellness practice consisting of a combination of movement, meditation, and breathing. Qigong formed the early root of Chinese Medicine and is still considered an integral part of modern Chinese Medicine practices.

Benefits of Qigong practice include optimizing the delivery of oxygen and nutrition to the tissues, increasing the efficiency of cellular metabolism, altering neurochemistry towards healing, managing pain and mood, facilitating relaxation and mental focus, and the expansion of consciousness.
