Look inside second floor wellness Suite living center in Greenville, and you'll see animals. Tigers, bears, deer, monkeys and cranes are all there in the Treaty, the mirror Hall.
Of course, aren t animals really exists, but animals Qigong class is to make it look and sound like it. The newest class of Heath and Wellness Center, it includes animal sounds and movements for different parts of the body and to achieve internal and external harmony. Starting at its ain t traveling.
Zhang Hong leads class demo today s heating of class II or, as she describes it, draw energy from the Earth and put it in yourself. Smooth movement, accompanied by a series of sounds, each repeated three times and any other meaning.
OK, we need to relax, said Zhang, acupuncture and traditional Chinese practice teaching some classes in the Centre of life. Soooooooooooo.
Zhang is smiling, is encouraging, despite the somewhat vague expression on his face around her.
You can say your energy moves, she coaxes. We make three times.
Ancient Chinese qigong consists of 1800 animals and includes the five above-mentioned animal as guide through specific movements, breathing techniques and even sounds open your energy channels, said Zhang new class based on the ancient methods will make its debut five weeks at the Centre of lifeSince 12 April.
Animal qigong is one of several classes, the ever-growing list of integrated management classes at the Center. Yoga, acupuncture, meditation, breath work, massage therapy, Tai Chi and growth over the past decade in response to what may be called total patient healing, said Kim Hein, Director of programs at the center of life.
The conventional side of medicine, they are now seeing that this is also useful for people, Hein said. People there are options to determine which choice they re going to make in their health and well being.
(2 of 3)The idea of qigong, as well as other traditional Chinese practices, is something you must orient the whole person the mind, body and spirit truly heal people. Traffic destined for the attention of participants and thus weaken them.
However, they also include some physical tests relate health of the cardiovascular, digestive and endocrine. Each step can be configured to make it heavier or lighter, depending on the ability of the person (s). For example Zhang demonstrates the raise your hand means open heart.
You raise your hand, it s good for the heart, said Zhang, who immigrated to the United States 18 years ago. Thousands of years ago the Chinese people understand, if you can raise hands above you don't need to worry that your heart problems.
And when you do sooo sounds as you raise your arms it focuses the mind and soothes the nerves too. You can t get that from traveling or just taking pills, Zhang said.
This, I feel not only make people dependent on drugs and medication or surgery, said Zhang, whose background as a doctor in traditional Chinese medicine has kept her from her tablets. They can help themselves.
Other movements of the stomach, spleen and targets lung and large intestine, kidneys and bladder and liver, and gallbladder.
Zhang begins with the movements of the Tiger, raising her hands, and make a fist to mimic the animal's paws. She moves her hands quickly in order to symbolize that the animal represents the power and speed. Then turn to deer, more graceful movement and slow. To bear lumbering walk, Zhang simulates allowing her body to hang slightly and move her waist. This results in monkeys, and Zhang opens the eyes of its width, encouraging class to become an animal. It mimics a monkey, a peach of a tree, using fast, but coordinated movements. Crane comes last, and movements are done with arms out and moving up and down. It looks like a flock of birds in flight.
It takes balance and focusing the mind to actually make steps.
(3 of 3)We say three levels of implementation, said Zhang. Physical (muscles, joints); the second moves your energy because better circulation; However, higher lift us spiritually. Chi makes you go to this level.
Hein said Healing the body grows 10 years at the center of life, but over the past two years has been the most growth. She credits Zhang Wei and end with the introduction of instructor Tony Taiji and qigong in upstate in the 90s. The two began teaching in Anderson 16 years ago.
There are always skeptics and usually it takes someone with an open heart and then Word of mouth, Hein said. People, once they get involved, they see the benefits of the traditional Chinese medicine and practice that have been going on for several thousand years.
The program began with one class, but now life centre offers a rotating mix of qigong, Tai Chi and yoga classes, breathing, said Hain. A new class of animals qigong students attempt to answer requests for new and different, Zhang said. And the great thing about implementation once you learn it, you can do it anywhere; does not require any special equipment.
IT s so easy, even in a small room you can, says Zhang. Not everyone can go into the pool, as here, but you can still help yourself.
