Practicing just five to ten minutes a day will have immediate effects on the body and mind.
With the first breath and movement, the nervous system begins to calm down.
The person becomes more focused and begins to relax.
Over time, the health benefits continue to grow.
The increased flow of qi (energy) improves blood circulation, lubricates the joints, relaxes the nervous system and dissipates stress from the muscles and mind.
The more you practice consistently, the more profound the effects will be.
In the same way, the beneficial, anti-ageing effects of qigong increase and accumulate over the years.
Ideally, you will develop a daily qigong practice, as a few minutes a day is much more beneficial than thirty minutes every four or five days.
