What is the purpose of your movement. The practice of Qi Gong literally meaning ( breath work ) is since the 1950's a term that refers to folk practices and the self cultivation of body mind and spirit informed by Taoist, Buddhist and Confucian concepts with the aim to access the body ( and its life force ) which is the most accessible to work with. The calming of emotional turbidity is more tricky to transmute, and then there is mind which is quite a tough element to dificult to deal with. The me, I amd myself along with innner judge and Jury and executioner is the most important aspect to pacify to free oneself up from. If you find yourself simply arm waving and think qi gong practice is self entertainment or a spiritual path then STOP now. If you are a no strain no pain addict to self abuse you will be blind to the benefits of balance so jog on. If you are addicted to feeling safe and cozy energy, know that, that is worse than addiction to heroin. Take up Salsa or Morris Dancing, you will get more out of that than indulging in pseudo-spiritual nonsense.
