You already know that Stress is everywhere, rampant in our society  – and you know that stress is detrimental to your health and your overall well-being. Did you know that Stress causes disease? 

Stress is the Underlying Cause of all Disease

When you are stressed mentally and emotionally, your body is stressed.  When your body is stressed, your mental and emotional health suffers. External conditions such as environment, diet, even some exercises cause stress on the body. Some excercises that are supposed to be good for you are hard on your body making recovery longer and more difficult. Sometimes it takes years to realize the negative effects of supposedly good-for-you exercises.

When your body is stressed, it cannot fight off disease. Your physical body begins to deteriorate and break down and diseases begin to develop. Then your emotional health becomes stressed and begins to weaken. It becomes a harmful chain of event.  Physical stress…emotional stress…physical stress…mental stress… you begin to spiral down.

Reduce stress and you reduce disease.

An effective way to Relieve Stress and reduce disease is with Qi Gong 18 Style.
As you investigate Qi Gong, you will find that stress restricts the flow of Qi in your body creating blockages.  Blockages (stress) are the root cause of disease. By learning how to clear the blockages and allow a balanced free flow of Qi in your body, you can reduce stress and actually cure some diseases; or at least you can improve your health.

Qi Gong 18 Style is a ritual developed by Taoists about 5000 years ago. It specifically balances Qi and reduces stress, allowing you to experience better health.  With a regular Qi Gong 18 Style practice of only 20 minutes each day, any condition can be improved.

This ancient Qi Gong ritual is simple, easy to do, and requires no special equipment. Take it with you and do it wherever you go. Reduce stress and enjoy vibrant health, more energy and stamina every day.

The goal of qi gong isn’t an addition process; it is more a subtraction process. The more we can get out of our own way, the more we can let the universal flow of energy move through us. We become an agent of its goodwill, and we take our rightful place in eternity. This is not in some far-off heaven but here and now. Qi gong helps us wake up to the living, breathing moment in which we can finally take part. An important aspect in “getting out of the way” is reconciling the stuck energies in the “horizontal axis” of grief, anger, and frustration. This horizontal soul axis of emotions is intimately involved in the rising and falling trends of our mental and emotional upheavals. It is simultaneously tied to the cycle of life and all the trials and tribulations of the soul. It is important to not be deferential about this and to be engaged in the process of reconciling imbalances on this axis. 

It is at this point in the process that most people get stuck because this is where they store the majority of the repressed charge in their shadows. Our desires for addition (wood) and our reluctance to let go (metal) lead to a great deal of clinging and suffering. In playing this game, we get out of balance and unconsciously pour more and more energy into creating “monsters” here. 

In Chinese medicine, the lungs represent the metal element, which descends energy naturally, while the liver represents the wood energy, which naturally rises. The lungs sit above the liver in our body, and it is the dynamic tension of trying to maintain this inverted energetic flow that is the essence of life. One pushes up from underneath as the other pushes down. Upon death, the shen of the liver, the hun, ascends to heaven, and the shen of the lungs, the po, descends into the earth. We need them to check each other in dynamic tension; otherwise, they will separate, and we will perish. 

 Bringing harmony to the proper flow of the horizontal axis is what keeps our lives running smoothly and plugs us into the power of the vertical axis. The proper alignment of attention and intention requires a healthy understanding of the human condition; far from running from it, we are to be engaged, aware, and awake moment by moment.    

This is an excerpt from a Yoga Journal Blog post January 6, 2019 by Pedram Shojal

Qi Gong Breath when performing the Ritual is often overlooked. Qi Gong is defined as Body, Mind, and Spirit. Qi Gong can also be defined as Movement with the Breath and Focus. Your Breath is the source of Qi. Breathing draws Qi into your body to be distributed by the blood to all of the tissues in your body. The Breath supplies us with Qi.

Movement is mostly a conscious activity. We direct it with thought. Breath is an unconscious activity. It happens without our conscious thought. As a Qi Gong practitioner, you must be aware of the breath while your body moves during the ritual. As a Teacher and a Practitioner, occasionally I find the proper breath pattern is not being done to attain the maximum benefit of the movement. 

Be Aware of Your Breath

When you are performing the Qi Gong 18 Style Ritual, always accompany each movement with the correct breathing pattern. 

(a) Always Inhale the Arms Up, Exhale the Arms Down. 

(b) Always Inhale the Arms Open, Exhale the Arms Closed. 

(c) Always Inhale to the Left, Exhale to the Right when bending or twisting to the side.

(d) Always Exhale when moving the palms or fists Out, Always Inhale when moving the palms or fists In.  

The patterns are simple. Some say it is “natural breathing.” It is simple, so don’t complicate it, simply be aware of your breath. 

The MOST important aspect of the Breathing Patterns for Qi Gong 18 Style Ritual is 

moving and breathing simultaneously. The movement and the breath are initiated together and are completed together. Begin breathing when you begin to move. End the breath when the movement ends. The movement moves the breath, the breath moves the movement. This simultaneous action will maximize the effectiveness of your practice. Your benefits will be sooner and greater by focusing on the coordination of Breath and Movement. 

Be aware of your breath as you practice Qi Gong 18 Style. Maximize your Benefit.
