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

Flatulence:

 

Among the Digestive organs takes the Spleen energy plays a central role. This is responsible for the Metabolism of food and liquidsthat we ingest. The coupled organ is the Stomach. Together with the stomach, the spleen energy forms the so-called earth element. This is our energetic center. In China, there are special medical alignments that strengthen the earth element in the healing of most diseases. Because a healthy digestion is the basis for our Health.

 

Also the Liver energy plays a role here, because in particular the Bile helps in the digestion of food. When the liver energy can circulate freely, it also benefits Stomach and spleen. The Large Intestine is the organ that absorbs the last usable liquids at the end of digestion, and then everything unusable is excreted in the stool.

 

If someone now under Flatulence suffers, it can be assumed that in the area of the digestive organs a problem or certain processes are not optimal. The result is a painfully distended abdomen. The pain may not be present at all, or it may increase to cramp-like pain. This is often the case with children, as their digestive organs are still in the process of adapting to a wide variety of foods and food combinations.

 

With the shown Self-acupuncture program we specifically strengthen the organ energies of spleen, stomach and liver, but of course also the Colon Energy. However, the prerequisite for the effectiveness of the points is that the food supplied is tolerable for the body, i.e. easily digestible.

 

Here I would like to note a few points that can weaken digestion and thus lead to the unwanted flatulence.

 

  • Eating too fast with too little chewing
  • fatty and sweet foods
  • Sugar can be a problem for the gut
  • possible gluten intolerance
  • flatulent foods
  • an excess of dairy products
  • Too little fiber in the diet
  • too much raw food
  • Eating foods that are difficult to digest in the evening (meat, raw vegetables)

 

Recipe for rice congee:

 

Put 1 cup of rice and 8 cups of water in a pot. Then boil the whole thing for at least 1.5 hours until a porridge is formed. Then store it in the refrigerator (preferably in a glass jar). Warm up 1 portion of this porridge daily and eat it unseasoned for breakfast. Rice has the property that it binds toxins from the intestine and they can be excreted.

 

Supporting herbs:

 

  • Fennel
  • Anise
  • Sage
  • Turmeric
  • Cardamom
  • Caraway
  • Coriander

 

5 tips for intestinal health:

 

  1. Regular consumption of starchy foods: Potatoes, green beans, legumes. Starch enters the large intestine undigested because the small intestine cannot digest it. In the large intestine, the starch then causes fermentation.
  2. Avoid white sugar and artificial sweeteners, because they feed the "bad" bacteria.
  3. Eat fermented foods such as kimchi, sauerkraut, kefir or kombucha, and yogurt with live cultures. Do not eat pasteurized dairy products, as this kills the good bacteria.
  4. Avoid antibiotics and pesticides of all kinds if possible. Antibiotics are often hidden in meat from factory farming.
  5. The use of probiotics is better than taking multivitamins. This is shown by over 150 studies. Because 80% of our immune system is formed by the intestine.
  6. Do this self-acupuncture program best 1-2 times a day.

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.

 

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.

 

Tue 4 "United Valleys" - Hegu

Master point for pain in the head and face, especially for acne

Comment:

This item is included in the Pregnancy prohibited, as it is used to speed up the birth process.

 

It is often used as a remote point in the treatment of facial, oral, nasal and eye problems.

 

The combination LI 04 with Lv 03 is called "4 gates" and is very well known, because it is Wind from the head area dispels pain and calms the mind.

 

Di 04 also has a strong relation to the psyche and can therefore be needled to calm the mind and anxiety. In this case, the combination Di04 +Le03+LG24 is used.

 

Combine Di04 with another very important item, Ma36, and you have a brilliant combination to strengthen the immune system.

 

Hk 06 "Inner gate" - Neiguan

Most important point for nausea,travel sickness, vomiting and seasickness.

 

- Location:

on the inside of the forearm, 3 transverse fingers (2cun) from the flexor crease, between the tendons

 

- Helps with:

Mind soothing, stomach problems, reflux, irregular or painful menstruation, clarified! chest pain (thorax), premenstrual depression, sleep disorders

 

Comment:

This is one of the important points in acupuncture with various effects. Firstly, it acts on the chest and can therefore be used for pain and unpleasant sensations in the chest. However, these should always also be clarified by a doctor.

 

It has a strong calming effect on the mind and is therefore used in all states of anxiety and restlessness.

 

Especially effective for women suffering from premenstrual depression.

 

In addition to its effect on the heart and liver, it also acts on the stomach, specifically directing qi downward in the case of "rebellious stomach qi". This is a condition in which the stomach energy does not flow downwards as it would naturally, but rises upwards due to congestion, leading to nausea and vomiting.

 

Lv 03  "Big meeting" - Taichong

Source Point of the liver meridian, most important point on the liver meridian

 

- Location:

on the dorsum of the foot between the 1st and 2nd toes, at the end of the "groove".

Comment:

This is an important point to eliminate Fullness in the liver, it is somewhat milder in effect than Le02.

 

It has a special effect on cramps and increased muscle contraction.

 

It has a profound and calming effect on the psyche and is an important point for very tense, impatient and stressed people. This function is lacking in the point Le 02. For this purpose, the point is often used together with Di4. Together they belong to the most important acupuncture points and are called the "Four Gates".

 

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.
