Demonstration of Qigong Exercise 

11/19/2013

 
Robert Johnson, MD, Kaiser Permanente chief of Palliative Care in Walnut Creek, Calif., has practiced tai chi and qigong since the 1970s. He believes these mind-body exercises promote good health, flexibility, strength and balance, which help reduce the risk of falling among seniors.

In this video, Dr. Johnson demonstrates  exercises of the seven main joints; the neck, shoulder, elbow, wrist, waist, knees, ankles. He also shares why putting the tongue on the top of your palette is important. In addition, he shares how you need to pay attention to three different circles when you are doing Qigong exercises.  He shares how the legs and feet connect and move through the earth and how all these movements are symetrical and connect back to the earth and that energy. 
Traditional Chinese exercises, such as Qigong & Tai Chi, have been found to promote health, strength, flexibility, & balance. Thanks to Kaiser Permanente for sharing this video.
