“You’re cool with learning some qigong, right Father Smith?” I asked. Although he wasn’t wearing his clerical garb, I already knew that he was an ordained Catholic priest. He had traveled hundreds of miles to learn Shaolin Kung Fu from me, and we had communicated via email. But qigong is a big part of the […]
A few years ago, I injured my back doing something stupid in the yard. The low-back pain that I had gotten rid of with qigong suddenly returned, and with a vengeance! Of course, I was still practicing my qigong, and it was helping a lot. In fact, I think I would have been in SERIOUS […]

I say again because I’ve written a […]
Some teachers say that you need to practice qigong for hours every day in order to get results. I’m not one of those teachers. I advocate short, high-quality sessions. The fundamental 5-Phase routine that I teach is only 15 minutes long, but it’s powerful medicine. I encourage my students to bookend their day by practicing […]
