Qigong: Breath, Rotation, Shift
What is Qigong? Qi means "energy" as well as "breath." Gong is a general term meaning "work"
or "skill." Qigong could be translated as "breathing exercise" or "energy work."
People watching qigong see slow, graceful movement or simple stretches. But, there is a lot
more to qigong than meets the eye. What you can see and witness in a qigong practice is only
the surface of a much deeper and potent internal power.
Qigong comprises a diverse set of practices that coordinate body, breath, and mind based on
the Taoist philosophy. The practice of Qigong rolls back the clock on the damage done by
stress and the sedentary lifestyles, promoting health and long life.
Tao Master Arthur has 30 years of practice and teaching. He has been recognized and
ordained by Grandmaster Zhang Ming Xin of the oldest continuously operating Taoist temple in
the world at Qingcheng Mountain in Chengdu, China. Master Arthur is the founder of California
Tao, a Taoist organization that works with individuals and executive teams to maximize
success through contentment. Tao Master Arthur sees the practice of Qigong create
fundamental and lasting changes -- unlocking new levels of living, success, and growth. He
incorporates ancient wisdom, cutting-edge science and decades of business experience into
his teachings.
Recommendations:
• The Breathing is the most important aspect, so concentrate on that until it becomes second
nature
• Wear loose-fitting clothing
• Remove distracting electronics such as Apple Watch
• Try not to take a shower for at least 2 hours after a practice
• After the practice it is important to change your shirt and put on a fresh one, the dirty one
should go into the laundry
• Drink only room temperature or hot liquids after the practice
