Qigong is one of the oldest living practices for cultivating qi in the body. Through meditative movement, breath, and awareness, it teaches us to feel where energy gathers and where it disperses, where the body opens and where it holds, and how to care for our energy for health, vitality, and longevity. Qigong takes many forms. Some traditions emphasize martial strength, others medical healing, and others spiritual cultivation. Vitality Qigong is centered in the body’s living energy: learning to sense, guide, preserve, and cultivate qi in support of wellbeing, vitality, and a deeper relationship with the changing body. 

In midlife and beyond, when the body is changing in ways that can feel unsettling or unfamiliar, this practice offers a way of meeting our changing energy from within rather than managing it from the outside. The practices here are guided by Dr. Ming Way, a certified qigong instructor. You may wish to read more about Vitality Qigong, or simply choose a practice below and begin where your body is today.
