- Summary:
- Eight Mindful Movements of Qigong details how to relax and energize the body by practicing the Eight Pieces of Brocade, a very popular classical form of qigong (pronounced chee gung) that is highly regarded for its health benefits. Qigong, translated as energy cultivation, is an ancient Chinese form of healing meditative movement and exercise. These eight gentle movements are designed to relax the body, mind, and emotions, while promoting calmness, stability, health, internal strength, and increased energy. The Eight Pieces of Brocade provide the foundation of an authentic centuries-old exercise routine that is appropriate for all ages and levels of fitness. This video features an introduction to qigong, warm-up exercises, and clear, detailed instructions on each of the eight pieces (movements) comprising the routine.
