Wild Goose Qigong


https://youtu.be/JuB1MtYGwGY

As the v shaped forms of pink foot geese warble overhead on their way North,
here is Sue Johnson performing the 1st 64 movements of Wild Goose Qigong. It is the most ancient and original of all qigong forms having been mentioned in the original Yellow Emperors Classic.
There are over 700 Forms to Wild Goose Qigong...some are just a single, subtle move.
Sue travels to China every year to get updates from her Grand Master, now in his 90's and still teaching.
She teaches a class in Manchester where I felt honoured to join  her last weekend..tI am trying hard to learn the form!

General measures of mood (e.g, Profile of Mood States)...

Qigong and Fibromyalgia

Controlled trials indicate regular qigong practice (daily, 6–8 weeks) produces improvements in core domains for fibromyalgia ( pain, sleep, impact, and physical and mental function) that are maintained at 4–6 months compared to wait-list subjects or baselines. 2014 Jana Sawynok and Mary Lynch https://www.hindawi.com/journals/ecam/2014/379715/
