Qigong practice and therapy in Purmerend Amsterdam
Qigong practice
Qigong is about acceptance, non-duality, the power of relaxation, unity with all-encompassing, softness, openess, discovery of true self in the greater perspective
Wherever you stand in life, Qigong can be supportive. A helping hand.
Qi = lifeforce
Gong = practice
To practice wih Qi is to first calm down. Stand still and observe. Look inside and realize that body and mind is Qi. Just like the world around you. As far as the universe. Then you start to practice with the intention that everything is Qi
Qigong is an old treasure from ancient China for physical and mental wellbeing. Become in harmony with nature. Your own true nature.
You discover the self healing potential of body and mind by practicing Qigong. This can be as simple as not feeling well before practice and feeling completely different afterwards.
Some of the effects of Qigong practice:
Strengthens the bodily health
Repairs and regulates the nervous system
Stimulates blood circulation
Reduce breathing cycles
Illness prevention
That all sounds swell but to work effectively with Qi one has to detach from the logical thinking mind. Your thoughts, ideas, your daily life. In that perspective Qigong is a meditation practice. Our practice is based on Zhineng Qigong. If your mind does not calm down it is hard to become aware of Qi during practice. By all means Zhineng Qigong is not the practice of focusing solely on silence and eliminating wandering thoughts. Zhineng Qigong practice is about moving body and mind in a calm meditative state.

Qi springs from the Daoist art of healing. Which is based on research of lifeforce. The lifeforce that causes life to live. This research on lifeforce created a complete selfhealing system. Which is Qigong, acupuncture, Chinese healing herbs, Chinese healing massage. The teachings of Daoisme spring from works created by Lao Zi and Zhuang Zi. The teachings on the state of origin and emptiness. Qi is a central part in this. One meditates on clearing the head from the train of thoughts and refine Qi in the body. One concentrates on Qi on the lower abdomen. The source of lifeforce. Qi softens the ego, which opens the connection with the orignal mind. Aware of and sensitive to the flow of life energy. Move in the direction of balance and harmony. Healing is implicit to this life philosphy. Further daoist teachings go as far as where freedom of human beings is in uniting with universal oneness. Then immortality is found and where death is just the the returning to the source of universal oneness.
All information here is based on the system or style of Zhineng Qigong and Zhengti Qigong. These hold the theory that everything is Universal Qi. You interact and merge with the nature and empty space around you. This is the base of the practice. Other forms or styles of Qigong focus more on yin/yang or meridians of the internal body only.
Illness, discomfort, chronic pains, modern life diseases you name it are treated as a disharmony of Qi in the body. If Qi flows in harmony in and through the body illnesses are much less effective. If at all present.
With Qigong you work on the selfhealing power of body and mind. In harmony with your inner nature.
Qigong excercise is moving in meditation. There is no physical workout in Qigong. Qigong is about relaxation. In a relaxed state Qi can flow happily through the body.
