Hi All,

LEE HOLDEN: Qi Gong for Anxiety

Filmed in the Redwood National Forest, in a creek, soothing water sounds.

I did the short version this morning. This has a bigger focus on breath - deep breathing and some focus on acupressure points. I can hear the music which is similar to other music in Lee’s workouts; the babbling creek sound is the star. I liked this one a lot, too! Lee didn’t always say the name of the flow so I described it instead.

Long version - 35:06
Short version - 18:11

Short version
Wave breathing
Hands to sternum, fingertip circles on sternum
Knocking on sternum
Teacup move
Neck rolls (but not too long )
Wrists, elbows, hands shaking
Drop and shake
Pulling up the earth
Cloudy hands
Cloudy hands - faster
Cloudy hands - slower
Embracing the tree
Hands to heart center, sweeping old energy out flow
Hands to heart center, deep breath up, touch crown
Hands on lower abdomen, tree in the wind
Ends with another beautiful smile.

Does anyone want to join me in the 30 day challenge on July 1, or is to too early? I plan to do the challenge the first month of every quarter so that I continue to reap the benefits and stay in the game.

Pat, I'm planning to pick it back up mid-month. I think I'm ready for day 15 or 16. This month has been busy with no real settle down for a couple more weeks!

I finally made time to do another LH Qi Gong…

Qi Gong for Healthy Joints
Extended version - 54 mins
Long version - 41 mins
Short version - 21 mins

Asian inspired music, can hear it throughout, beautiful scenery, looks like Yosemite Mountain Range.

Short version
Opens with spinal cord enlivening exercises - rotating side to side
Knocking on door of life
Feet diagonal, shifting weight back and swirling shoulder (silk reeling into the shoulder)
Neck circles
Hip circles
Leg swings
Knee swirls
Knee circles
Bend knees/straighten
Slapping side of knees, back of knees, inside knees
Wrist swirls
Shake wrist w/palms up and then palms down
Full body shake
Ends with a series of flowing movements

Loved this. I think this would be great after a long day of work to loosen things up a little.

I've actually kept up on the morning qi gong. Without Lee though. I pick my favorite moves and do them for a few minutes.
