Exercise 5 - Eight Pieces of Brocade | Ba Duan Jin Qigong | Shaking Head and Wagging Tail

This is the fifth exercise of the Eight Pieces of Brocade or Ba Duan Jin. This is an ancient Qigong sequence for building strength and flexibility, improving balance and calming the mind. It is suitable for beginners, those with more Qigong experience and seniors. It can easily be adapted to practice from a seated position.
Here I explain the basic movement, breath and mind focus. For a more detailed explanation from me, including the health benefits of this sequence, I invite you to join my 50 lesson Space To Relax video programme which includes the 8 Brocades in depth.

************
I’m Dr Janice Tucker. Since 2000, I have been sharing medical Qigong with thousands of students and clients to help them live healthier lives; physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually.
These simple methods will show you how to:
• relax mentally and emotionally to reduce stress;
• enhance your health by adjusting your breathing and posture;
• practice medical Qigong meditations to calm and clear a busy mind;
• use morning Qigong exercises to get a great start to your day and manage any pre-existing health conditions;
• energise your body and put a spring in your step so that you feel younger.
My passion lies in adapting Qigong exercises for people aged 40+ so that they feel relaxed and energised, not exhausted, at the end of their practice. I love to share my knowledge with students from all walks of life, and these Qigong exercises are suitable for both beginners and those with more Qigong experience.
