Introducing Yuan Gong

Yuan Gong is a simple and effective Qigong system which uses the mind (Shen), breath (Tiao Xi) and body (Xang - through movement and posture ) to effective continuous positive change in Qi (energy and information) to improve health and elevate consciousness.
The overall purpose of practising Qigong is to:
- Prevent illness (yes, it is possible!)

- It is effective and brings rapid positive results
Effectiveness
Yuan Gong is effective because:
- It improves the Qi condition of the whole body, simultaneously strengthening all functions and systems
- It improves the San Jiao (triple burner) which has an important impact on the functioning of the internal organs (heart, lungs, liver etc) which keep us alive
- It opens the channels (meridiens) and promotes Qi flow in the channels
- It increases the stability, clarity and sensitivity of Shen (the mind), bringing peace of mind and greater mind power
- It promotes the unification of Jing (body) Qi and Shen (mind) which brings deep peace and inner calm... and much more
- It is easy to achieve results because it follows the natural laws of life

Benefits of practice
Qigong has so many benefits it would be quicker to say what it doesn't help - which would probably be very little!
Because Qigong works at a fundamental level, it addresses and improves all levels of our being: mental, emotional, physical and spiritual. However, to break it down, here are a few areas of life Qigong will benefit:
Physical
- Turns on the body's natural self-healing response, assisting people to recover from many symptoms and health conditions
- Turns off the stress response (which is responsible for the start of much illness)
- Improves flexibility of the spine and joints, keeping the body younger
- Improves flow of blood and Qi, thus improving nourishment of the cells
- Turns back the clock, regenerating cells and maintaining good organ health
- Calms the nervous system
- Balances blood pressure (high or low)
- Improves breathing patterns which in turn enhances detoxification and general health
- Detoxifies the body and improves lymph flow
- Balances the hormonal system
- Improves digestion and elimination
Emotional
- Calms emotions so we feel poised and balanced
- Reduces stress and anxiety
- Clears emotional energy from the body
- Clearing emotional energy helps to clean the organs where the emotions are stored, thus improving their overall function
Mental
- Improves mental clarity and focus
- Improves and increases creativity
- Improves brain function
- Increases feelings of positivity and optimism for life
Spiritual
- Elevates consciousness and enhances personal evolution

History of Yuan Gong
Yuan Tze, creator of Yuan Gong
Yuan Gong was created and launched by Yuan Tze as a brand new Qigong system in 2013 and Kim was fortunate enough to be amongst the first teachers trained in this new method.
In April 2013 Yuan Tze announced that after 40+ years of training, he had chosen to bring a new Qigong system to the world. He felt people needed a simple form of Qigong which was easy to learn, effective and a pleasure to practice.
