Tai Chi and Qigong (pronounced “chi-gong”) are both mind-body practices that are adaptable for nearly all fitness levels, do not require any equipment and can be performed anywhere you feel comfortable moving. Often known as “moving meditation” tai chi is a series of slow, gentle motions that are patterned after movements in nature. Qigong is an internal process that has external movements and is often referred to as the ‘internal’ portion of tai chi. We also discuss Energy Healing and our host Cyndi shares her personal experience Energy Balancing.
