Qigong practice, like all arts, is improved and enhanced through repetition. All art forms have ways of making these repetitive actions fun or interesting to promote further practice. In Qigong, every practice session is different for a number of reasons.
When learning Qigong, it’s easy to get wrapped up in the details of “what moves should I learn”, “am I doing this right”, and “what benefits am I getting”. However, those thoughts all lead you down the wrong path. This is called “goal-oriented practice” and keeps you at a superficial level. You must simplify to go deeper.
Real practice is simple. It can be explained in one simple phrase, and when followed, is the most powerful healing elixir available. It’s easy to remember, easy to follow, and highly effective. You must know this one simple secret.
