Qigong Movements

5 Element Movements and the emotions corresponding to each of them.

Movement #1 – Moving of Yin & Yang:

This movement helps to activate the healing energy of yin and yang moving together in perfect harmony and balance. It helps heal the internal organs, opens the heart and aligns the spine.
Emotion: Happiness is the emotion I want you to associate with this movement. Bring happiness energy into your body in the way that is most helpful for you.

Movement #2 – Breathing of the Universe:

This movement heals the lungs and skin and balances the energy inside and outside of the body. The movement of your hands combined with the breathing technique helps to open blockages in the whole body, especially the lungs.
Emotion: Joy is the emotion I want you to associate with this movement. I define joy as being happy for no reason – and every reason. As you do this movement, tap into the limitless energy of joy in the universe in the way that is most comfortable for you.

Movement #3 – Connecting with Heaven & Earth:

This movement can help heal any challenges related to heart, lymph system, lungs, liver, kidneys, and intestines. Because people nowadays sit so much and are not as active as in the olden days, and because most people don’t move their arms above the head enough, the body doesn’t generate enough heat to help the triple heater to function properly. The triple heater is an energy system that has a lot to do with your glands and lymph system. When this system isn’t working properly lots of serious, chronic energy blockages will form, affecting all of the internal organs. Diabetes, high cholesterol, high and low blood pressure, gall stones, digestive system issues, and tumors are all related to the triple heater not functioning properly. The triple heater is responsible for customizing the energy in the body for specific purposes in different organs. This movement activates the triple heater system in the best possible way for bringing your entire body into alignment and balance.

Emotion: Grounded-ness and Peace: As you continue to breathe and move up and down slowly and gently, I want you to feel your connection with heaven and earth. You are a citizen of this planet, so you are always connected with Mother Earth. Feel how grounded that makes you feel.

Movement #4 – Connecting with Your Body’s Energy:

This movement helps to direct energy to the Hui Yin point at the bottom of the torso. This is where the female energy channels gather together. It is beneficial for the uterus and reproductive organs in women. It is also beneficial for prostate problems in men.
Emotion – Contentment: As you do the movement, tap into the limitless energy of contentment in the universe in the way that is most comfortable for you. You can say, “I feel so contented” or “I feel the energy of contentment flowing into my body and filling me up.” Say it out loud or say it in your mind and know it is happening. Feel the energy of contentment flowing through your body.

Movement #5 – Connecting with Your Heart’s Energy:

This movement helps to move energy to the Bai Hui point on the top of the head. This is where the male energy channels come together. It also helps to open the heart.
Emotion: Thankfulness and Gratitude: The emotion I want you to feel for this movement is gratitude. Tap into the limitless energy of thankfulness and gratitude in the universe in the way that is most comfortable for you. You can say, “I am so thankful” or “The energy of thankfulness and gratitude is flowing into me and filling me up.” Say it out loud or say it in your mind and know it is happening. Feel the energy of thankfulness and gratitude flowing through your body.
