I am observing how the bodies defences weaken when we are in shock and grief. I have just experienced the death of a beloved cat. Moving house, changing jobs and the big one..climate change all take their toll on our systemic health.

Why Qigong makes us feel better..part 1!

The nearest that the Western world can get to a definition of Qi, is bioelectricity and , since we can now measure significant bioelectrical  changes in our magnetic field when we do Qigong, this would seem to add up! All electrical currents create a magnetic field around them as they move. The systems of our bodies are no exception. The movement of our blood , pumped as it is by the heart and containing magnetized particles of, for example, iron, creates a magnetic field around us - as do many other automatic processes.

Lee et al., 2003; Tsai et al., 2003). Depression was shown to improve significantly in studies comparing Qigong to an inactive control, newspaper reading (H. W. H. Tsang et al., 2006) and for Tai Chi compared to usual care, psychosocial support or stretching/education controls (Chou et al., 2004; Mustian et al., 2006; C. Wang et al., 2005). General measures of mood (e.g, Profile of Mood States)
