Relieving Tension =  Pain Relief

Written By Wa Qi

Chinese healing and martial arts practitioners have long believed that blockage of energy flow in our body can lead to pain. One main cause for energy blockage is physical tension. Therefore, Song, 松, a Chinese word meaning releasing tension and relaxing the body, can reduce pain. 

Over the centuries tai chi and qigong masters developed efficient methods to promote relaxation, especially through the deeply relaxed practice of silence. Movement in tai chi and qigong further cultivates relaxation, in slow, gradual, and eventually fast movement needed in daily life and/or sports. 

Join me on Tuesday, October 24, 2023 at 7pm ET to learn specific tools to embody this wisdom in stillness and movement practice.
