Lee Holden Teaches James Nestor Qi Gong | Easy 25 Min Qi Gong for Better Breathing

[@PatchSpineCenter]

I've been practicing Qi Gong with Lee Holden for 18 yrs now, since he released Qi Gong Flow For Beginners in 2005. It has been transformational for my spiritual and physical practice of Life.

Oh I just loved this video and now want to read James' book that everyone is talking about on this thread. Also, here's an idea for a fun monthly or quarterly video series for social media ... "What's on Lee's Reading / Podcast list?" Boom. You're welcome!

[@hew195050]

Two of my favorite guys with regard to health. James Nestor speaks truth and so does Lee Holden.

[@davidbates6151]

James's book Breath had a massive impact on me - as have Lee's classes. The two of them together... :-) Would love to hear the two in conversation outside of the lesson!

[@HoldenQiGong]

We have this! We'll post it soon.

[@moth_paws]

I loved, really loved, this class! I will be doing it regularly. I need to learn how to breath properly and increase my energy. I just got the book, Breath, from the library, too, and will start reading it today. Thank you both for your important work and contribution to the health of the world.

[@raycarolmeadors3772]

Thank you for sharing so much of your repertoire, Lee, here on You Tube! I love the expansion that goes along with each video...even when there are some ‘exercises’ that you’ve taught us before. The wisdom teaching opens it up even further. 🙏🏽

[@scottysatori]

My New Favorite everyday for sure. Now I have to send this to my friends. Thank you so much for this gift.

谢谢你的视频，你对气功的理解已经超出了90%的中国气功爱好者的水平。气功是中华传统文化瑰宝之一。无论你是年轻人还是老年人，理解还是不理解气功的原理，你只要遵循八段锦，24式 或48式的套路天天练就能强身健体和延年益寿。其中大部分动作是来自于动物的动作的模仿和武术攻防的目的，但是都离不开’意，气，行的先后顺序‘的原则。大部分人的很多行为都是‘意和行’，而没有’气‘，你会感觉累，你要睡觉。睡觉是什么，睡觉是没有’意‘和’行‘只有’气‘的休息。专家做事不容易累的原因就是他们理解他们所干的事，他们做事不会着急，’气‘就永远在’意‘与’行‘之间。小孩为什么很少得病，那是因为父母给他们时间去理解和学习周围的环境和世界。相比自然科学而言，道德和生命对于我们来讲还是非常复杂的，以至于不得不用一生的时间去学习和理解，但还是无法理解透彻。好在我们有简单的教条来帮助我们理解道德和生命。道德规范和法律约束我们的行为；气功的简单意念，模仿动物行为和武术攻防套路让我们少用脑多做有’目的‘的简单重复性运动来维持和延长生命。 Thank you for your video, your understanding of qigong is beyond the level of 90% of Chinese qigong enthusiasts. Qigong is one of the treasures of Chinese traditional culture. Whether you are young or old, understand the principles of Qigong or not, you can strengthen your body and prolong your life by following the 8 Baduanjin, 24 or 48 forms every day. Most of these movements come from the imitation of animal movements and the purpose of martial art’s attack and defense, but they cannot be separated from the principle of "will, breath and action, sequence of line". A lot of people's behavior only include ' will and action ', but not 'gas or Qi', you will feel tired, you want to sleep. What is sleep, sleep is a rest without 'will' and 'action' and only with 'gas or Qi'. The reason why experts do not get tired easily is that they understand what they do, they do not rush, 'gas or Qi' is always between 'intention' and 'action'. Children get sick less often because parents give them time to understand and learn about their environment around them and the world. Compared with natural science, morality and life are still very complex for us, so that we have to spend a lifetime to learn and understand, but still cannot understand thoroughly. The good news is that we have simple dogmas to help us understand morality and life. Ethics and laws govern our actions; The simple ideas of Qigong, imitating animal behavior and martial arts of offensive and defensive routines allow us to use less brain and more simple repetitive movements with a 'purpose' to maintain and prolong life.

[@caseymarlin1856]

Whoa congrats!!!

[@stephaniecohen9894]

After the QG bounce it looked like Nestor’s posture improved!

[@tonyeton1316]

As a visually impaired viewer l would like to suggest Lee wears a light shirt, l cant see his torso and shoulders

[@jeanneratterman4174]

Excellent suggestion. The background is also very dark.

[@vibekemller8998]

[@denissayang9545]

Ohh what a coincidence ... I just read james nestor book

[@michaelfinkelstein8380]

Slow deep breathing, let energy flow.

[@nellievaughn7755]

This was just so delicious and beautiful.

[@krystalharwood6359]

delicious?

[@earlanafraser1906]

Are any movements that can assist people in wheelchairs ?

[@carmellewis2466]

Hi Earlana, You can do the arm movements, or if that's not possible, just join in with the breath and you may find a little more mobility is available to you. Also, I saw a video by Lee the other day where he and his mum were standing, but his dad did everything sitting. Hope you can make it work for you. X

[@krystalharwood6359]

he has a routine with his father and mother. Dad is in a chair and Lee instructs how people who cannot stand for long perform quigong while sitting. check it out. just type in lee holden quigong for seniors and click on the first video u see
