Gathering Qi with Nature

by admin on June 19, 2011

The hike this weekend at Deep Creek by Lake Arrowhead was vigorating and peaceful. To meditate in nature is to draw upon one of the strongest forms of Qi. Doing Qigong in nature is like stepping out into the Sun for vitamin D. The Chinese actually have a Qigong called, Zhan Zhuang which means standing like a tree. Sometimes done right by a tall tree to absorb the tree’s energy. Nature, love it, embrace it, and to take care of it is to take care of humanity.
