1. Qigong Student Feedback

* [12/26/01] Because of Qigong master's instruction in January 2001 and my persistence in doing the daily Qigong exercises, I am regaining my life.  My body, mind, and spirit continue to heal.  Some days are easier than others.  On the days that are less than easy, I remember your words:  "Change your mind."  When I change my mind,  I end up feeling better! I really like your Qinway Qigong System and support you in sharing it with the World.  People need to know about Qigong, not only for its curative properties, but for its application in the area of preventive medicine.  I wish for you in the New Year an expanded clientele and continued radiant health.  I look forward to seeing both of you on January 6th at the Full Moon Seminar.  (I still have so much to learn!)

2. Qigong Story:  Three Stories of Rejuvenation (Story 2)

It is said that Immortal Fanping Wang met Immortal Lady Ma Gu at his disciple’s home, and found out that she was actually his younger sister. Long time ago, Ma Gu practiced Taoism at Mount Guyu and achieved immortality. Thousands and hundreds of years later, she still looked like an eighteen year old girl. She had a hair knot on her head, and the rest of her hair hanging to her lower back. Her clothes shined. They celebrated this unusual reunion. Ma Gu recalled, “Since I achieved the Way of Tao, I’ve seen the East Sea becoming farming land three times. Recently I stopped by Mount Fenglai (a legendary island mountain where immortals reside), and saw the East Sea has become much shallower. It looks like it's gonna turn into land pretty soon.”

3. Beginner's Corner: What Is Qigong?

Qigong (Chi Kung) is an ancient Chinese health science that works with energy through movements and meditation. Qigong is considered the cornerstone of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). It is said to help cure and prevent diseases, strengthen the body, and make one feel younger and live longer. "Qi" means energy, and "gong" means to work with this energy.

When one has a high level of Qi (energy), one's health will be good. When our Qi level is low, it is usually symptomatic of blockage in the meridians that Qi travels through. This will cause a problem and toxins and disease set in. Toxic material is taken into our bodies by bad diet, alcohol, drugs, cigarettes, polluted air and stress.

Qinway Qigong was founded Master Qinyin. It is a set of special techniques that can increase the amount of vital Qi in the body to form a sufficient pressure to remove toxins. One main characteristic of Qinway Qigong is the opening up of energy channels between the human being and the universe to accelerate the healing process.
