If you still want to give qi gong a try, I highly recommend Jeffrey Chand. He has some workouts available on Youtube, plus he has a paid subscription with lots and lots of content, not just routines, but rotations, discussions, and instructional videos. He has some nice short routines that might help you get started. I like this one, it's about 12 minutes, but once you know it, you can even shorten it by skipping the first 3 minutes of instruction.
