Wolfgang's Qi Gong Tips

Wolfgang shows you the Mini Qi Gong program consisting of eight exercises:
Qi awakening
Connecting heaven and earth
View full moon
Liver cleanse
Purification breathing
Collect Qi
Qi Gong exercises
for better digestion

This Qi Gong program consists of 6 exercises that strengthen your digestion. In particular, the meridians of the stomach, spleen and liver are stimulated and balanced. The two exercises "Connecting Heaven and Earth" and "Looking at the Full Moon" are typical exercises for the Earth Element, with its meridians Stomach and Spleen. They represent our energetic center and must function optimally for a good digestion of food.


The liver also has an important digestive function, as the gallbladder must produce digestive juices for fat digestion. Another task of the liver is detoxification, that is, the elimination of those food components that are harmful. The exercises "Cleansing Liver" and "Cleansing Breathing" do exactly this and thereby also support the digestion, so that there is no slagging.

Background information

TCM background information

Strengthening digestion

 

St 36 - this point is another toning point of the body.
It is one of the most frequently used acupuncture points in acupuncture. It strengthens our so-called center, specifically the stomach, and causes energy rising upward to flow downward. This also has a positive effect on the entire digestive system.

 

MP 6 - This important acupuncture point for the spleen and pancreas,
is located on the inner side of the lower leg, 4 transverse fingers above the inner ankle. It strengthens the important partner organ of the stomach, namely the spleen-pancreas energy. Also called spleen energy for short. The spleen energy is responsible with the stomach that the splitting of the ingested food works optimally. If this is not the case, we get digestive problems, possibly weight problems or struggle with fatigue and listlessness.

 

SI 03 - this point on the outside of the little finger base joint is the master point for the shoulder.
It also clears the mind and calms the thoughts. So it takes care of the emotional background of problems in this area of the body. Digestive problems often arise because we swallow something emotionally.

From the point of view of TCM, the small intestine is responsible for separating the important from the unimportant in the body. This applies in a physical sense, but it can also be translated to our psyche. Here, too, it helps us to decide what is important for us and what is secondary. The less we can do that, the more we tend to become internally restless and tense. A balanced small intestine energy is shown by the fact that we can clearly distinguish important from unimportant.

This makes it easier for us to let go of unimportant things and concentrate on what is important.

The tension in the digestive organs can be released.

 

LI 11 - the 11th point of the colon meridian, located on the outside of the elbow,
is one of the best strengthening points for the body. It also has a positive effect on the entire digestion and is therefore also included in this strengthening program for your digestion.

 

Tips for good digestion:

 

1. enjoy your food with a feeling of gratitude. This reduces stress and creates an emotionally balanced atmosphere in which the gastric juices are produced better.

2. take your time to eat and chew each bite 20 times. Digestion starts already in the mouth, with the crushing and the insalivation.

3. make sure your food is organic and free of chemical additives.

4. use food that grows in your region and also occurs in season.

5. eat fresh fruits and vegetables every day. In the cold seasons, eat them in the form of soups and compotes.

6. prefer pure water to other beverages.

7. be careful not to use sugar and also use salt sparingly.

Eat like an emperor in the morning, like a king at noon, and like a beggar in the evening.

Acupen

St 36 "Three miles of the foot" - Zusanli

Most important point of the stomach meridian to strengthen digestion

 

- Location:

4 transverse fingers (3 cun) below the lower edge of the patella (knee cap) on the tibialis muscle

 

- Helps with:

indigestion, bloating, constipation, stomach pain, fatigue, headache, loss of appetite, blurred vision

 

Comment:

This point is a prominent point in TCM because it strengthens the post-heaven qi. What is meant by this is that it strengthens the stomach and spleen, those organs that are responsible for our energy intake through food.

 

Ma36 is a general toning point for the whole body, but also for the psyche, and is used for all symptoms of fatigue, tiredness and weakness.

 

Together with MP06, Le03 and Di04, it is one of the most famous and frequently used points in Chinese medicine.

 

MP 6 "Meeting place of the 3 Yin" - Sanyinjiao

One of the most important acupuncture points that strengthens the spleen

 

- Location:

4 transverse fingers above the tip of the inner ankle (malleolus internus)

 

- Helps with:

 Loss of appetite, fatigue, diarrhea, feeling of weakness in the lower extremities, menstrual disorders, in the absence of menstruation, impaired libido.

 

Comment:

This point is used in Chinese medicine to tonify the spleen energy. It is often used in combination with the point Ma36. Due to our diet, many suffer from MIlz-Qi deficiency, which manifests itself in sweet cravings, tiredness after lunch, general fatigue and soft stools. So this point is very important for us.

 

Another area of action of this point is that it removes moisture from the lower of the 3Warmers removed. Thus, it also has a specific effect on the urinary tract and is used here for micturition disorders, dysuria (pain during urination) and cloudy urine.

 

MP6 is also an important point to Blood and Yin strengthen and will therefore be Blood deficiency and Yin deficiency used.

 

MP6 is also one of the main points in any gynecological problems, as it regulates the uterus and menstruation and resolves pain.

 

The point also has a lot to offer on the psychological level. Thus, it has a strong calming effect on the mind and is therefore used for sleep disorders. Due to its effect on the liver energy, it also works very well with irritability.

 

SI 03 "Back river" - Houxi

Key point of the handlebar vessel, distant point for the neck

 

- Location:

Several folds appear on the little finger when the fist is clenched. The point is located at the proximal (close to the body) fold, behind the base joint of the little finger.

 

- Helps with:

Cramps, tremor, neck stiffness, dizziness, headache, bilateral back pain, clears the mind, gives clarity to what is important/unimportant.

 

Comment:

In combination with Bl62, the point Dü03 activates the handlebar vessel and therefore has a positive effect on the entire spine, both upper and lower. This applies to both chronic and acute problems, but only if the pain is on the spine or in the lower paravertebral area (both sides) of the back.

 

LI 11 "Curved pond" - Quchi

Toning point of the colon meridian

 

- Location:
With the elbow angled at 90 degrees, a crease is created between the upper arm and the forearm. At the end of the fold towards the elbow is the point in depth.

 

- Helps with:

High blood pressure, diarrhea, strengthen immune system, menstrual problems, colds, shoulder problems, tennis elbow, skin diseases.

 

Comment:

This item can be used similarly to Di04, the big difference being that Di04 specifically has a reference to the facial area that Di11 does not.

 

Qi Gong

The word Qi Gong consists of 2 syllables - Qi and Gong. The Chinese term "Qi" can be translated for us most likely by "life energy". But it contains more than this. It also means breath and air. In Chinese medicine, Qi is considered to be the invigorating force that flows through all living things. However, Qi is not only inside the body of a living being, but also outside. Qi also shows itself to us in nature. Thus animals, flowers and trees are flowed through by Qi. Qi is the living force that is inherent in everything and that makes life possible.

 

The Japanese call this force "Ki". In India it is called "Prana". It always means the same thing - the power and energy that is inherent in everything and keeps us alive. In Chinese medicine, health is only possible when the Qi in our body is pure, not polluted and can flow freely.

 

Due to bad living habits, in the course of time, energy blockages can occur in the body system and as a result, diseases can manifest, which can be physical or psychological in nature. Generally speaking, we can say that a living person has Qi throughout the body.

 

The word "gong means roughly "body work" or "success through perseverance and practice". Therefore Qi Gong is called "Work with the life energy". We learn to improve the flow and distribution of Qi in our body through movement and concentration to strengthen our health and bring body and mind into harmony. At the same time we learn to stand correctly, between heaven and earth. This significantly improves posture and many aches and pains disappear on their own.

 

Qi Gong is a holistic healing system with a long tradition, which has been continuously developed until today. It includes health-promoting postures, movement, self-massage, breathing techniques and meditation. Through these various exercise methods, Qi is supposed to be collected and stored in the body, like in a reservoir. The goal is to expel the impure Qi and absorb fresh pure Qi.

 

Qi Gong is not a medicine that is prescribed for a limited time, but rather it should be practiced daily. In this regard, 20 minutes of daily practice is enough to improve health and one's well-being to a great extent.

 

Anyone can practice qigong. There are exercises for every age and every state of health. The exercises can be practiced standing, sitting, lying down or walking. So even physically challenged people can easily practice Qi Gong and improve your health in a sustainable way.

Chinese herbs

The herbal therapy is called "the queen of TCM" in traditional Chinese medicine. This underlines its high status. Herbs form an important foundation of TCM and have a profound effect on the human organism. They can replenish deficiencies, expel states of fullness, warm or cool the body. They are generally referred to as herbs. Nevertheless, minerals are also used in the recipes.

 

Herbs are usually prescribed after a thorough diagnosis by a doctor. In this diagnosis, in addition to a conversation, attention is paid to the pulse, tongue and overall appearance of the person. Nevertheless, there are herbal mixtures that have proven themselves over the centuries for various problems.

 

We have made suggestions for all clinical pictures for such proven recipes. Nevertheless, in many cases it may be necessary to consult a doctor or therapist. Based on the individual situation, this person can recognize how the energetic situation really is at the moment and, based on this, recommend the optimal herbal mixture. Of course we do not have this possibility, because we cannot meet you personally. Nevertheless, if you have any questions, please feel free to contact us and we will try to help you as much as possible. 

 

For many disease patterns there are 2-3 herbal suggestions. The first suggestion is always the one that from my experience is suitable for most people. However, if there is no reaction, then try the second mixture that is suggested to you. 

 

However, herbal therapy needs some patience, because in most cases it works slowly and subtly. In return, there are no side effects and the effect is very long-lasting.
