That's wonderful Kim, it's lovely to hear you are feeling the benefits from regular qigong practice. Thank you for choosing to practice with me 😊

I’m disabled, 27 years old and use a wheelchair. I’ve become very sedentary and it’s hard to find good exercise. I just tried this while sitting on the floor and while I wasn’t able to do anything with my legs, my upper body feels fantastic after doing these stretches. I want to make it a daily routine. Thank you! From Missouri, USA ❤

Hi Emily, thank you for the lovely feedback ❤️ I'm so glad you found the Eight Brocades of benefit for stretching and exercise - Qigong is a wonderfully beneficial exercise and in particular Eight Brocades and Yi Jin Jing (muscle tendon strengthening exercise [ kzread.info/dash/bejne/Z5hhw6SCf67Nj5s.htmlsi=ut3aEVSKi7ioxchP ]), and are just as beneficial for wheelchair users as for anyone. I teach Qigong chair classes and the results for the lovely practitioners has been amazing - It's so wonderful that your strong spirit has lead you to these practices 🙏 Lily

I came back with feedback after not even 12 hours after my first time doing this. I have been struggling with anxiety and panic disorder meaning I couldn't even leave my bed and hyperventilating for hours. A doctor reccomended me this and here I am. I couldn't even do the breathing exercise (because of my anxiety and hoping with time I'll be able to do it), I only focused on movement and today has been the first day in 3 weeks in which I haven't felt anxiety and I have been very calm. I feel like it's a miracle for me! Thank you for this!

Hello,I am 75 years old person doing Tai chi exercises since 4 years and I find 8 brocades extremely beneficial for body and mind. I do these 8 exercises almost every morning. Your way of teaching is very clear. My one question is how many repetitions of each one exercise can be practised at a session . I will be obliged to know from you. Thank you.

@YogaLilyStudio

3 жыл бұрын

Hello Ramakrishna, thank you for your kind feedback and question. The eight brocades practice is not fixed to a set amount of repetitions for the exercises. A gentler version would be to only do a repetition once each side (left & right), and the stretching up and folding down exercises just 3 times. If you wished to focus more on a single exercise, you could repeat as many times equally each side as you felt benefit. In Health Qigong we try to limit the movement to what is beneficial to you as a practitioner rather than it becoming a strenuous exercise. I hope this is helpful, and thank you for practicing together with me. ☯️😊 Lily

I just enjoy the practice but thank you 😊

Hi! Is this the version officially approved by the National General Administration of Sports of China? I am researching on that version that was used in small clinical trials for treatment of knee pain and osteoarthritis.

Hello Mark, yes, you are correct. The Eight Brocades Health Qigong was developed in collaboration with the Chinese government's administration of sports and the International Health Qigong Association. They've developed quite a few wonderful practices designed for benefitting health. Eight brocades is used in hospitals in China for recover from illness and post surgery. 🙏 Lily

Hi Kenzo, thank you for your question. The music doesn't have a name I'm sorry. It is the official competition music for the Eight Brocades practice, created for the International Health Qigong Association. ☯ Lily

I am curious about the one pose called "Archer" why is the index finger pulled up and the hand at a 90 Degree angle. I thought the index finger was supposed to point out into the distance. Isnt the hand bent position "Kiu Sao" from Hung Gar. For Chi gung purpose the opening of chest, shoulder and back seems inhibited by the Kiu Sao which is more of a combat, hard style position. I have wondered about this for a long time. I appreciate any insite you can give me, thank you.

Hello John, the flexed wrist with finger pointed up is a hollow hand for collecting Qi at the 'lao gong point'. Focus on the finger tip 'Shang yang point' enhances the liver Qi, as it is opening in to the eyes regulating joints. Also around the wrist when flexed will stimulate the lung and large intestine line meridian 'tai yuan point'. One hand pushing out, the other pulling in fromt of the shoulder 'yun men point' will fully open the chest, shoulder and heart, also the upper back. There is a lot more subtle detail to this sequence and I am planning to make some videos diving deeper in to this. If you would like to subscribe you will be able to catch these when they come out. Hope this is helpful for now, 谢谢 Lily
