A friend was walking across her kitchen and fell. The fall resulted in a “whiplash” type of injury. Her neck was so stiff she could not turn her head to either side; the pain was intense. She went to the Doctor, had an MRI. Now she is on pain medication and wearing a collar to brace the neck. She still has trouble moving side to side, however it is easier when she takes the prescribed pain medication. She is driving again now (did she read the label on the prescription about operating machinery?)
Seeing the condition she was in caused me to reflect back to when I first began practicing the Qi Gong 18 Style Ritual. Yesterday morning, as I moved forward and down while performing the “Looking at Heaven” movement during my practice, I remembered how I would feel a little unbalanced and light headed doing this movement back in the beginning days of my practice. Over time, that feeling left and I found a feeling of strength and confidence when I did the “Looking at Heaven” movement.
If you look, you will find many articles describing how Qi Gong helps with Balance; and studies that demonstrate the improvement in balance especially for “older” adults. My friend is almost 65.
Why will people not understand the power and benefits of Qi Gong and do the ritual? It only takes 20 minutes a day –a small investment that pays huge dividends. I talked with my friend about it and all she could say was, “If it is not better soon the Doctor wants me to have a CatScan.”
What has to be done to get the general population to realize they can improve their health, attitude and well-being with this simple ritual? That is my quest; however, some days I feel as though no one listens.
