Simple Beginner Qi Gong- With Jeffrey Chand

[@scottmckay9535]

I am a new 'student'. I am 74 years old. I have knee/leg pain, accompanied by stress/anxiety. I started yesterday, and today I feel less pain and stress. I am going to continue.

[@SojournerOnSojourn]

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@patrickd6033]

May I ask how you are doing today?

[@johnforbis7633]

I have a good friend who is a library volunteer where I work who does qigong and a brother-in-law who does it as well. Wow! Did i need this!!!! Now I am a convert. The sweat in the back, I also feel some coolness in my shoulders, and they feel the most relaxed I have ever felt them. What a boost!! I also have a brain injury. So I look forward to the "re-wiring". I need that as well.

[@breathe1122]

My chronic pain has made it tough for me to want to get moving. This light routine got me started again. Thank you Jeffrey!

[@ThinkVitalityQiGong]

New simple qi gong routine! It's so easy, and it actually works!

[@patmertz3207]

I'm recovering from the deep grief of losing my beloved husband. I am grateful to have found this practice and have been trying varied practices. I do notice some improvement from the physical pain and weakness of grief. Thank you.

[@nialllawlor1389]

i want to thank you ,in five days your simple excercises has shifted severe tendinitus in my left arm,I am a full time musician and so it was very compromising for me ,discovering qi gong and your classes is a huge blessing

[@dav2times475]

my interest peaked in qi gong after i seen a chinese master healer for the first time i could feel his energy, GREAT lesson for beginner thank you for putting this content out there

[@karelmillard9854]

Love your clear style, explanations and “user friendly” approach. Thank you for sharing these and making this so accessible. We need this in our lives so much right now. 🙏✨

[@ThinkVitalityQiGong]

Thank you so much! I agree - we all need a little more calm these days 🙂

[@c-suitemakeup1867]

When you asked “how are you feeling?” And I said “GREAT!” With a smile :). What a pleasant and invigorating practice. Thank you!!

[@theresacilia569]

I would like to thank you so much Jeff Chand. I was feeling very low with no energy when I woke up. I completed this practice and I can't believe how more energized and uplifted I feel. I will make this my morning ritual. Thanks Theresa

[@katclaw9172]

This is my second day, second video of yours and really loving your teaching style! Learning to manage my stress and you've helped so much already! Thank you!

[@giniaa2707]

I find all your videos helpful, but especially enjoy the ones done outdoors in nature.

[@ThinkVitalityQiGong]

I am glad to hear that! Yes, simply being in nature is like a 'practice' itself 🙂

[@TransforminginSakartvelo]

Thank you so much! I just started doing Qi Gong, here, and with your clear, personable teaching, I feel it is already making and will continue to make a difference physically and mentally for me. I'm on a budget (writer/artist with no income yet) so I appreciate the free videos on KZbin!

[@jaycoxon928]

Hi Jeffrey, thank you for giving me the opportunity to learn from you. I love the way this makes me feel. I will keep doing these exercises from now on. ❤

[@dawnharrold4474]

This was fabulous, I feel tingly, more awake, focused and energised but in a calm way. Thank you 🙏

[@ThinkVitalityQiGong]

That's excellent!

[@lalitavajra6078]

Thanks Jeff, very clear and helpful. A feeling of lightness.I'm in Cambridge. U.K. 65 years old and it is a real pleasure to have discovered your videos. Thank you.

[@ThinkVitalityQiGong]

Thanks so much, and that's wonderful that you feel lightness!

[@isabelle865]

Love this simple exercises to release my stress related to work . Thank you so much.

[@djroeable]

Greetings all the way from the UK.. I wanted to say ‘thank you’ for these really helpful videos . I started on the Qi Gong journey some time ago but sadly my tutor/mentor went away…leaving me with little or no real routines. I recently tried Tai Chi , but found that was way too rigid for me . As a 67 year old man , still working, with Arthritis and having had 4 TIA’s I needed to do something !!!! . I don’t use painkillers or any drugs/alcohol etc. but I do have an excellent Acupuncturist.. The way that you explain the movements and all the possible benefits is just right for me … The breathing exercises help with stress and anxiety of life, whilst the movements help free up the body which in turn improves my mental health ….😊 Thank you again. David

[@lynncharlesworth5297]

You are an excellent teacher. Beautiful flowing movements and very easy on the eye. Thank you so much. s

[@trystandavies7249]

Thank you - I have had Long Covid and energy/fatigue has been a big problem. I am finding qigong very helpful in getting my normal energy back.

[@josiealonso6360]

I have done quite a few of your routines. I love this one as I find it very grounding. I have started doing it just before I start work for the day - I find it gives me perspective in a stressful environment.

[@francescamoscatelli6296]

Thanks for keeping it simple and concise. Loved this routine! It was my first time trying Qi Gong! I feel alive!

[@hannahworsfold5493]

Thank you so much - excellent for this 75 yr old woman starting Qigong. I felt energy flowing through the body and warmth in the neck.

[@petinachambersmcvay8482]

@7:11...I feel more relaxed going into my day. It's raining and the sound of the rain seems like a natural part of the qi gong. Thank you so much for this. 💗

[@clintinasimms8993]

I really felt much better after doing this routine with you. I had just finished a mandatory caregiver training session and was feeling a little overwhelmed. Thank you for your caring professional helpful videos.

[@ellenhartwell8048]

I’ve just discovered your Qigong routines. I so appreciate your gentle and soothing manner. The exercises feel powerful. Thank you!

[@peawal8751]

Your doctor friend was right! Thank you 🌞

[@caspermaster-com]

Fantastic and simple. Eckhart Tolle recommended Qi Gong for people with high "painbody" (negative emotions/depression/low energy) To start the day with, I feel pretty cleansed inside and with some more energy + calm

[@Vincentorix]

Your routines always make me feel better. Thanks.

[@ThinkVitalityQiGong]

I'm so glad!

[@maryklimchuk6405]

It feels very good. I have arthritis and stiff muscles, this is easy to do and feels wonderful. Great explanations!

[@sharrysmith7356]

I am a reiki practitioner and I like how you recognize reiki energy and clearing the excess at the end of a session. And your teaching and pace resonates with me.

[@ThinkVitalityQiGong]

That's wonderful! I think Reiki and Qigong work really well together 🙂

[@jennifersevaux6319]

Jennifer Sevaux, I very much appreciate your routines; especially today just before an operation next week at Gemelli hospital in Rome.

[@rambabumaddi7739]

My intent to do away with the idea of beginning the qi gong practice vanished after watching this video of yours and deeply planted in me the determination to cultivate chi gong and benefit by IT. I am 74 and from India. Thank you.

[@jeng3683]

Hello Jeffrey -- I am SO happy I found your series - doing Qi gong even for only a few days has helped my mind body & soul more than I ever thought it could. With your short, but informative guided instructions, I feel like I'm on my way to making this a practice. I am so grateful. Thank you!!!

[@ThinkVitalityQiGong]

You're very welcome! I am sure it will continue to improve as times goes on 🙂

[@motunrayoogunyinka7394]

thanks for this, first time trying qigong and I feel lighter after it, also found that the hand movements helped me get out of my head for a few mins. I really appreciated the simplicity and accessibility of the moves and information. Looking forward to trying some more of your videos!

[@HUGSsandi]

Loved feeling the warmth from my hands as they got near my face! This feels great, and what a perfect practice for those of us who are empaths! Thank you.

[@kerriehanlon]

❤ thank you for this practice I have done it 2 mornings in a row and I will continue with it each day , I was so ignorant before when I was in a rehabilitation clinic they had a quigong teacher come in once a week and I was so closed minded I did everything to get out of it since I've started on my sobriety and spiritual journey I realise the importance of all of this, I'm surly going to make sure my 4 yr old daughter is aware of the stuff I'm just learning in my late 30s , thanks again I'll check out the website 😊

[@quilting]

thank you jeff, i look foward to spending time with you and your great intruction, thank you

[@neardeathexperience1111]

Love the exercise at the end to move excess chi energy away...really important for those of us who are super sensitive to energy ❤,🙌

[@ThinkVitalityQiGong]

Yes, you are correct - it's useful to do everyday for some people 🙂

[@mlstorey7968]

I love your practical explanations. I usually do a more strenuous qigong but I have had a back issue , which is back in place but tender. I started with your sitting exercises and now have graduated myself to your standing. I love your simple explanations and simple exercises. I just did this and it was wonderful. Lots of qi. Thank you.

[@denisemann8798]

I go to settings and slow this down to .75 to obtain the slow speed at which I prefer to practice.... thankful for these videos!

[@mariannegrochowski1218]

This was my first ever Qi Gong practice! Loved the calm energy I got from it. Thank you for this!

[@ThinkVitalityQiGong]

That's great!

[@isla2402]

Hello, thank you for the beginners video. I already feel better!

[@johnc.6645]

Your demonstrations are the best. Nobody ive watched or listened too, explains what the moves do better then you. Ive bennifited greatly from your routines.

[@ThinkVitalityQiGong]

Wow, thanks so much, I am glad you find them helpful!

[@Viktors633]

Just discovered your channel. My starter class for Thai Chi was cancelled due to covid so i went online and discovered Qigong. I love it, i am in my mid 50s and very unfit and by mistake i found Qigong whilst looking for Thai Chi. I think this is better for me . I have been doing your Qigong everyday for 3 weeks and i feel much better and calmer .Thank you so much and greetings from the UK. Totally subscribed.

[@danielvalenzuela9764]

Your a good teacher and can tell you have a genuine character

[@ascendnat]

I have a feeling this video just changed my life. Seriously! This video contains so much valuable information in a bite-sized and easy to understand way. I feel so good right now and inspired to learn more!

[@ThinkVitalityQiGong]

I’m so glad to hear that!

[@gitausaxena]

Hello chand you have really taught Qi gong very well . Thanks . Keep it up. If possible can you make videos to practice for half hour and also one hour . If you are going to do these please also include warm up and cool down. So that I and many others can make Qi gong as a daily routine. This 12 minutes routine looks too less as a daily workout.

[@davidmacdonald1579]

I can actually feel the movements within my energy field when doing this exercises.

[@ThinkVitalityQiGong]

That's great, you must have good and strong qi! Keep up the good work!

[@TheGoofygirl67]

Thank you so much, just found your video 😊 and looking to begin a practice. Xx

[@jomojenkins8376]

You are gifted. Thank you and many blessings

[@Holmes1022]

Thank you for the video. I'm committed to making Qigong a major portion of my life. I've studies with other teachers before, but somehow I seem to resonate more fully with you. Thanks again.

[@ThinkVitalityQiGong]

You're very welcome and I am happy to help! Just keep finding what works for you 🙂

[@caroleteranishi2469]

I really enjoyed this exercise as instructor Chand goes thru each one completely. Other sites explains the move and will show the moves about 3 times & then suggest that we do 3 more & then continue to another exercise.

[@ThinkVitalityQiGong]

+Carole Teranishi Thank you for your comment and feedback! I know we are more likely to practice if we can follow along, so I want to make it as easy as possible!

[@jackwolf3200]

I have only very recently discovered your work here, Jeff. I must say that I am very impressed! I've been wanting to study Qigong for years but living where I do, Squamish BC (you are probably familiar with it if you live in BC) there are no Qigong instructors that I know of. That and this pandemic are a bit of a pain. Your videos are a way around this and I thank you very much for taking the time to share with us here ;-)

[@helenleonidas8053]

Feelings of depression and heaviness movement. ❤ thanks ❣

[@Ic3Craft]

I appreciate your clear explanations and your friendly voice. This is just the video I was looking for!

[@ThinkVitalityQiGong]

Thanks so much, I am glad I could help! 🙂

[@barbaracalvert6248]

From Somerset in UK. I am enjoying your routines so much and feel that I am already benefiting . I love your calm and gentle presentation. I shall make this a regular activity. Thank you.

[@bluebelloftibet6678]

Thank you for sharing your wisdom with us! 🙏🙏

[@katrinacalice6484]

Thank you again Jeff for these wonderful and simple routines, they are really great! Blessings your way.

[@michaelgilbert3681]

Hi Jeffrey. I've just done my first Qi Gong session. Thank you for such a peaceful and lovely routine. I'm also suffering from Long Covid atm and when I was releasing the Qi I felt quite a strong tingling in my hands as I turned them round to start the outward movement. The whole experience also left me feeling a little breathless. I'll see how my experience compares next time I do it :)

[@carolemurray1913]

Quigong daily is so simple and effective. I am really enjoying it. Thank you Jeffery. Chand For your encouragement. I

[@ThinkVitalityQiGong]

Wonderful Jeff, I really loved this routine, felt so good. I also like to bend the legs too with these exercises. It felt very healing, thank you!!

[@cummingsutube]

Thank you. Looks like a great place to start. After following this beginner routine for 20 days I will move up to one of your other videos.

[@ThinkVitalityQiGong]

Good job!

[@MsMegancarter]

Thank you so much. I’ve added this to my morning routine. I’m on a path of healing and this is just what I need. Thank you 🙏🏼

[@zoegillman6692]

Thank you for posting this. I have a great support group for my health (I'm so lucky with my alternative options) and one just suggested I try qigong. No one here teaches on my island, but thanks to KZbin and you..voila! I've chronic pain and hopefully this is the start to get me mobile xo thank you

[@ThinkVitalityQiGong]

That's so inspiring! I love the fact the we can all be connected even though we are in separate places! Just out of curiosity which area of the world is your Island? As you'll discover, qi gong practice works very well with other healing modalities. Thanks for watching and commenting!

[@zoegillman6692]

So sorry that my island sounded exotic ..I live on Whidbey Island WA

[@ThinkVitalityQiGong]

Whidbey Island does sound exotic :)

[@ranaejohnson7469]

Day 1. Suggested by my chiropractor to work through PTSD stress. My BP has been too high to mention because of it. So I will be sure to do this right before my procedure tomorrow and see where my BP is. I will try to reply each day with progress notes.

[@johnforbis7633]

Oh and by the way, I like your clear style as well.

[@beldr.]

i feel sleepy, but a little clearer, lots of yawning now, a sense of calm

[@marilyndallas8387]

i enjoy this. Great for elderly

[@caroleschaefer2203]

Thank you Jeff.

[@trash2vintagetreasures]

really works wow! huge therapy!!

[@renewd]

I like the movements and the sense of relaxation and focus that I felt, yet I do not want to be concerned with building up too much chi when I do my morning movements. Thank you.

[@ThinkVitalityQiGong]

I wouldn't be too concerned about building up too much qi. If you feel restless or antsy after a qigong practice just go for a brisk walk, a light jog, or some other medium to high intensity exercise to dissipate any "excess" qi. Your qi wants you to be healthy so if you need more relaxing or activity just listen to your body! 🙂

[@renewd]

Thank you. I had a feeling that was the case.

[@bizenabrha3498]

Thank you explanation of qi exercises

[@DanielaElcunHoory]
