How Qigong can help your immune system bySifu Wing Cheung
Qigong says we get sick because the body’s organs and energy channels get out of sync. In health, they vibrate strongly in harmony. But when your energy gets blocked, it becomes unbalanced, the body becomes weak, all of its organs and energy channels get out of sync, and finally you become susceptible to all kinds of things.
Many things cause energy blockages. But the number-one cause of energy blockages is emotions. Unbalanced emotions. What you could call “negative” emotions.
Fear drains the kidney energy, your body’s very vitality.
Worry harms the pancreas energy, and your pancreas is in charge of sending the right amount of the right energy to the right places in your body.
Anger harms the liver energy, and your liver does 70% of your body’s detoxifying.
Unbalanced emotions are the gateway to illness – this is the Qigong view.
But positive emotions are the gateway to health, vitality, and robust immunity – that’s also the Qigong view, and it’s the key to the extraordinary healing and preventive power Qigong.
People like to think there’s more to it than that, but there’s not. Relax the body and mind, move energy through the main channels, build vitality, and focus on positive emotions – gratitude, peace, happiness.
With a simple practice like Five Elements (which does all those things), you simply create such a powerful internal environment of positive energy that there’s no space for sickness to take root.
What emotions have you been feeling lately? Do you think they’ve been helping?
