Enhancing Qi Flow and Immunity
Qi is the life-force that flows through the universe and though us. Qi flows freely when there are no restrictions, compressions or hinderances. Where Qi flows blood follows. Where there is Qi
and blood there is function and good immunity.
By practicing the shaking Qi Gong we have the ability to let go of any tensions and the gentle movement allows a better passage of Qi.
The tapping with a cupped hand should be painless. The vibration moves Qi - you can imagine you are penetrating all the way to the marrow. As the vibration goes through your body it opens the channels/meridians and joints and releases tension.
