What is Chi Kung?

Chi Kung is a form of energy work and one of the most widely practiced forms of exercise in China. There are about 350 different variations whose purpose is to guide energy, rather than dispersing it, making the Chi stronger and more helpful to health by making the connection to natural forces through effective breathing and exchanges of energy with the universe. The early Taoist practiced in caves and on mountain tops and believed that the higher altitudes fostered a stronger connection of universal Chi especially for the vital organs and overall stronger health. Today, practice can be seen in most public parks in China and in order to be seen by a traditional Chinese doctor, one must have a basic knowledge of Chi Kung to assist the doctor with treatment of balancing ones energy flow throughout the body. In China, the Dragon has great historical and cultural significance and represents the highest level of development. Fire and Water are the central elements reflecting changes on Earth. “Fire” energy of the universe is intended to be used internally and to drive out negative Chi. Fire Dragon Chi Kung’s goal is to cultivate an intensity of Chi internally and spiritually. This surpasses “form” or external movements, and allows the expression of Chi to be all encompassing. The body’s organs are made stronger and function more effectively with the development of positive Chi. Practicing Chi Kung reduces stress, depression, blood pressure, breathing and heart rate, pain and inflammation, while improving flexibility and balance, strength, circulation, immune system function, posture, ability to relax, concentration, memory and mental outlook.
