Heal Thyself - The Secrets of Qi Gong.
Dieting can seem like the never ending battle. As people strive to lose weight, it can be frustrating when the results are slow to come or not at all. Weight fluctuations can seem insufferable as your inner desires to loose weight and the need to change your eating habits. Diets usually involve changing your food intake without increasing your self awareness. By changing your food intake, you can inadvertently do away with the foods that you like and need. Most diet trends don’t encourage you to discover what is really best for you. One diet does not fit all. This is where Qi Gong comes in, by presenting a sustainable, self-directing approach to cultivate the knowledge of how your body works. Qi Gong nurtures who you are instead of inhibiting your dietary needs. The knowledge and practice of Qi Gong unveils how the body can regulate itself so you can gain the power to have control over your own weight and health. By using simple exercises on a daily basis, you can greatly improve your digestion rate, increase your metabolism and encourage weight loss. The students of Qi Gong learn to use exercises that combine the posture, gravity, breath, mind and movement together to cleanse the Qi (the vital life force). When the Qi is in balance, all the systems in the body become harmonized therefore improving digestion and metabolism and relieving any ailments. As a self-healing practice that has been widely documented in China, Qi Gong has been proven to improve digestion and the overall health of the one who practices it. The efficacy of the use of Qi Gong has also been recognized in the United States by The National Center for Complementary and Alternative Medicine of the NIH and is currently doing further research to document the long term weight loss effectiveness. Most people in today’s world do not digest their food efficiently enough and the food remains in their intestines and stagnates, inducing many problems. This is where the practice of Qi Gong comes in to increase the rate of digestion and effectively improve any digestive disorders. By practicing Qi Gong regularly, a person can be free to eat as they wish while achieving a desirable weight. Weight loss is not just about the food you are eating, it’s about how food is processed and digested through your body. Here are some exercises, which if practiced on a daily basis after each meal, can substantially improve your digestion and promote weight loss. Exercise #1. By using both hands, bring your hands down with palms to the floor, to the level of your solar plexus. Have your fingers pointing toward each other, almost touching. Then easily start to move your hands away from your body to become parallel with your solar plexus (stomach area). You may feel a sensation that you are pulling something out of your solar plexus as if the tips of your fingers are connected by an invisible elastic cord. As you are feeling this, move your hands apart, as far away as possible without losing the awareness of the connection. Hold this position until you feel like you are about to lose the connection and then return your hands back to the starting position. When returning your hands to the starting position, you don’t have to think much on the action, just do what comes naturally. Don’t be alarmed if you don’t experience the sensations at first try, sometimes the more you practice this exercise, the more likely to feel the sensation with little effort. Exercise #2. Begin by repeating the first exercise, but this time you will bring your hands to different areas of your midline. Normally there are five areas that need treatment after eating. These areas are: the solar plexus (stomach area), the area half way between your navel and your solar plexus, your navel, the small area below the navel and the stomach area above the pubic bone. As you work these lower areas, you will need to change your starting position to palms up. This change will normally occur at the navel but it can be done at what ever point is more comfortable.
