Qi Gong is a traditional Chinese system of coordinated postures and movement, breath work, and meditation. It is used to cultivate Qi (life force energy) for the purpose of health, spirituality.If Qi becomes stagnant, the flow of energy is interrupted and can then lead to health problems. The literal translation of Gi Gong is “to work with Qi”.

Another way to understand this is it allows the participant to get the Qi or energy flowing in their body. Qi Gong balances the Yin/Yang meridians and in general promotes a sense of calm and well being.
