You can have a regular practice of Qi Gong 18 Style, avoid unhealthy foods and still have your health threatened by the lack of awareness of where sugar is, what it does, how we are deceived by marketing of sugar substitutes.

Take a few minutes and educate your self to what really is in the world of sweeteners. Increase your awareness, improve your health.

Improve Health and Reduce Aggression of Children

The article below is one I came across while browsing on the internet. Knowing many teachers and hearing of all the children who have been labeled with attention deficit syndrome I felt this needed to be shared. We need to let parents know that they do not need to medicate their children, they need to teach them Qi Gong. Feel free to share this article with everyone you know.

Qigong Improves Concentration in School Children

By Steven Sonmore L. Ac. | November 15, 2007

A study published in the June 2007 issue of the Journal of Chinese Medicine has found that including a Qigong exercise program helped calm and energize students, as well as improve health and reduce aggression. Teachers, school administrators and parents all desire to create an optimal learning environment for young students. In seeking a solution to this goal a unique approach was to conduct a study of using Qigong in three elementary schools and one high school.  Claudia Witt, MD, and associates from the Institute for Social Epidemiology, Epidemiology and Health Economics at the University of Berlin, did a study on 140 students to determine the result of a six-month program of Xianggong (”fragrant qigong”), movement instruction for the students’ health and behavior.

The teachers were first instructed for eight weeks in the Qigong movements. Then they spent 15 to 25 minutes twice per week instructing students before or after regular lessons. At the end of the six months, researchers conducted in-depth, semi-structured interviews with the teachers. The teachers were first asked, “Have you noticed any changes in your students during the qigong project?”

The teachers reported various positive effects, including that the students seemed much calmer, less agitated or aggressive, and more able to concentrate in class. Additionally, several teachers reported that students who had previously been absent due to frequent illnesses were in class more often. Researchers were confident that the pilot program served as a good test model for future projects
