Oprah Speaks About
Qigong!
On a recent Oprah
show, Dr. Mehmet Oz, a noted NY surgeon and health care advocate,
sited energy medicine as the medicine of the future. Quoting from
Dr. Oz, "The reason I'm so excited and passionate about alternative
medicine is (because it is) the globalization of medicine,"
Alternative medicines, Dr. Oz noted, deal with the body's energy,
something that traditional Western medicine generally does not
recognize. "We're beginning now to understand things that we know in
our hearts are true but we could never measure.
As we get better at understanding how little we know about the
body, we begin to realize that the next big frontier in medicine is
energy medicine. It's not the mechanistic part of the joints moving.
It's not the chemistry of our body. It is understanding for the
first time how energy influences how we feel".
Qigong was recently discussed at length on the Oprah Winfrey show
and touted as the "Best Longevity Exercise". Of course we agree and
you'd probably like to know how it works. Qigong harnesses the power
of the "Human Spirit" within us. This energy is without question our
most powerful resource for healing.
Using specialized breathing techniques and slow graceful movements
we circulate the vital energy within our body bringing blood and qi
to specific organs and endocrine glands. The practice is lots of
fun! One can easily FEEL the energy pulsate in the hands and arms
during a session. With time, a warm pulsation is noticed in the
navel area and this becomes the storage center for Qi.
