Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Chaoyi Fanhuan Qigong Techniques for Healing Self, Healing Others Renowned Qigong healer Master Yap Soon Yeong and psychology professor and Qigong trainer Chok C. Hiew team up to release the quintessential guide on the ancient art of Qigong Chaoyi Fanhuan Qigong Healing: Healing Self, Healing Others (published by iUniverse). In Chaoyi Fanhuan Qigong Healing, Yap and Hiew detail the meditative movements and practices that allow individuals to begin to heal on a physiological and psychological level. Readers are guided in how to rid the blocked negative energies that is often the root cause of pain, trauma, disease, aging and various chronic issues. Qigong, a centuries-old Chinese system of physical and mental training, has seen a rise in popularity as other Eastern codifications, such as yoga and martial arts, continue to spread in Western societies. Yap and Hiew understand the attractiveness of alternative health care approaches. Chaoyi Fanhuan Qigong (CFQ) Healing stems from the esoteric Qigong tradition in which one actualizes one's inherent self-healing mechanism to free the mind and body from pain and disease without any external input, the authors write. It is a therapeutic approach whose effectiveness in sustaining and extending life and overcoming most known diseases and genetic disorders has been demonstrated. Conventional medicine explains and treats diseases from a physical basis. Eastern holistic medicine goes deeper. Master Yap Soon Yeong & Chok C. Hiew, Ph.D. In Qigong energy medicine, the most fundamental principle is that life is the consequence of the presence of a harmonious mind flowing smoothly in the body. Problems arise when mind is separated from the body, a state that robs precious life energy from the body blocking the inherent self-healing mechanism responsible for homeostasis and healthy physiological functioning. Chaoyi Fanhuan Qigong (CFQ) is the primeval life science of re-connecting or keeping mind in the body to become more alive and to live a long and healthy life. The book's authors, the Founders of CFQ, introduce state-of-the-art healing methods based on authentic internal or energy exercises and meditation techniques. They are original easy-to-learn healing techniques to train on how to remove the common antecedent of disease the stale energy forces or blockages to restore life and for self-repair. Psychological and social trauma, chronic pain, disability are rapidly eliminated. CFQ training harmonizes mind, body and spirit holistically instilling a state of deep relaxation and peace as a form of reality. The ultimate purpose is to deepen healing ability for self-care and for healing others.

This makes it easier for you to get the benefits fromTaiji (Tai Chi), Qigong, and other energy arts you may practice, as when you can actually feel your energy you are more able to assess whether your practice is achieving its intended results, and make changes as necessary. In Waking the Qi, the role of the Mind, Body, and Breath is explained for each exercise so that students can gain a practical understanding of what they are doing and how it works. The practices in this book are particularly useful for anyone who has become weak and debilitated from prolonged illness, has a stiff or sore back and neck, weak legs, suffers from stress and anxiety, wants a stronger immune system, better digestion, improved circulation, easier breathing, or simply to have more energy.

Download or read book I Can Heal with Sound written by Tiffany Powers and published by . This book was released on 2021-12-20 with total page 49 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sound as an instrument of healing is not a new concept by any means. Sound has a vital connection to the communication pathways between the body and its central nervous system. It has long been used to transform the vibrational frequencies within the body and heal energetic patterns caused by emotional distress and trauma. Doctors of Chinese Energetic Medicine have long studied the effects of these patterns and have found that physical, psychological, and emotional trauma can be stored or stuck within the body's tissues and internal organs resulting in imbalances within the body. In Traditional Chinese Medicine, each organ system is associated with an emotion. The liver is associated with anger, frustration, and irritability, just as the lung is associated with sadness and grief. One way to release these energetic patterns, and the emotions or stagnant energy stored in these tissues and organs, is through the sound prescription exercises in Medical Qigong known as the Six Healing Sounds. I Can Heal With Sound looks at sound through the lense of a child trying to regulate their emotions. With the use of the voice as a healing instrument, sound has the ability to transform challenging emotions and feelings, regulate the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous system, strengthen immune response within the body, and reset the fight or flight response that is triggered by these emotions. Through the practice of these specific healing sounds, children will be given the tools to better navigate and release any negative thoughts or emotions that arise so that the body can more easily return to a state of balance. We all have within us the most profound tool for healing... our own voice. Sound is that powerful!
