Within the complexity of human consciousness, emotions reign as powerful forces, shaping our perceptions, decisions, and ultimately, our lives. Yet, what if I told you that not all emotions are created equal? What if some of the feelings we hold dear are mere illusions crafted by our minds? Brace yourself, because we're about to embark on a journey to explore why your mind-made emotions aren't as real as they seem.
The festive season brings with it a mixture of sentiments, from the joyous anticipation of gift exchanges to the stress of holiday preparations. However, for many, it’s not just a time of merriment but also a season marked by the challenges of life.
Being bombarded with messages of ‘joy’ and ‘togetherness’ can amplify feelings of sadness, loneliness or anger for anyone going through the heartache of divorce or a breakup, grieving the absence or loss of a loved one, or facing strained or even abusive family relationships.
This is where Qigong can help, by connecting you to your inner strength and restoring your emotional balance.
In the stillness of my first Qigong session, there I stood, grounded yet reaching for the heavens, moving in harmony with an unseen force. My hands tracing invisible arcs in the air.
This practice, rooted in centuries of wisdom, spoke to me in a language beyond words. It whispered of a world within, a world rich with untapped potential and boundless possibilities.
Urbanization, with its concrete jungles and digital cocoons, has created an ironic separation between humanity and the natural world we belong to.
The rustling of leaves and the murmur of rivers are often drowned out by the cacophony of city life, leading to a disconnection from the Earth on which we depend for our survival.
What many fail to see is that the Earth beneath our feet is more than just dirt and soil; it’s alive and brimming with energy and ancient wisdom.
A fundamental aspect of emotional resilience is the understanding that it's not about suppressing your emotions or pretending to be fine when you're hurting. In fact, it's quite the opposite. Emotional resilience begins with acknowledging your emotions, understanding them deeply, and then finding healthy and constructive ways to navigate through them.

Not everyone who embarks on a Qigong journey finds what they were hoping for straight away. Some individuals give up shortly after trying a Qigong class, while others start enthusiastically only to lose interest after a few weeks or months. This is unfortunate, as Qigong offers an extraordinary number of benefits. Drawing from my decade-long experience as a dedicated Qigong practitioner, I've identified five key reasons that might hinder your progress and how to give your Qigong practice a revamp.
Have you ever felt like there's more to life than what meets the eye?
Qigong offers a profound pathway to expanding your consciousness and diving deeper into the mysteries of existence. By incorporating simple yet powerful movements, breathwork, and meditation, Qigong has the potential to awaken dormant parts of your being and bring about a heightened sense of awareness.
Grief is a journey that no one escapes. It sneaks into our lives, uninvited, and wraps its arms around us, leaving us to navigate a sea of emotions and confusion. In the midst of my own journey, after the passing of my dearly loved Dad, I discovered Qigong to be a remarkable ally.
In our fast-paced world, we're often rigid and tense. We forget the power of fluidity and softness. Qigong reminds us of this. It guides us to be flexible and adaptable, much like water. This practice promotes health, vitality, and a sense of peace.
If you are seeking deeper meaning and a greater sense of connection - both within and beyond yourself - Qigong might be exactly what you are looking for.
Qigong offers a powerful means of connecting with your ‘true self’, also known as your ‘higher self’ - the eternal aspect of your being that is always connected to Divine Source. Qigong can support and accelerate your unique healing journey and reveal powers and resources you didn’t even know you had.
Qigong, as a non-religious, spiritual practice, has been around for centuries and has gained immense popularity in recent times. The practice of Qigong can help expand our consciousness, awaken us to a greater love for ourselves and others, and help us discover the deeper purpose of our lives.
