Qigong (pronounced chi-kung) is a Chinese system of holistic health practice, with roots dating back five thousand years. Energy cultivation is an excellent translation for Qigong, because it conveys the idea that, just as an agricultural field is cultivated with careful tending over time to produce food, your own field of life energy is cultivated so that your body and mind are nourished. Qigong brings body, breathing and mind together to perform movements and hold postures that exercise the whole person. While usually performed standing, it can also be preformed seated. Although most Qigong is characterized by slow flowing movements, it can also be still.
