How many hours should there be between 2 Qigong sessions? Is five or six hours good, or should there be more?

Hi Craig. Sticking with habits is hard for most people; sticking with habits when battling chronic pain is even harder. You are not alone in this struggle.

The 2-Minute Drill is the solution. Focus on Module 1 in the 101 Program. Remember: fall down 7 times, stand up 8. You can do this.

Living with chronic pain I lose patience when I don’t see results in the short run. I know from all of your teaching that it is important to practice each day and let the process do its work. I have an understanding of what to do it is putting it into a lifestyle practice that I continually seem to struggle with. Thanks for your encouragement

Jumping from 1x per day a few times a week to 2x per day for 30 days is fantastic! Congrats! Keep up the good work.

Hi Craig. Good for you for getting back up on the bicycle! You say that you haven’t succeeded in making it a daily habit, but what have you succeeded with? How much have you been able to practice these last two years? Any idea why you feel off the practice?

Thanks for your article. I have been trying to get into a daily habit of qigong with your 101 program for 2 years and still have not been able to make it a daily habit. I live with a rare neurological disorder that I have mentioned to you in past comments. The disorder is called cervical dystonia. It causes my neck to pull involuntarily to the.right. I know qigong can be of benefit to me so here I am once again willing to make qiging a daily part of my life. Happy New Year.

I usually practice once a day a few times a week. Today will mark 30 days of me practicing Flowing Zen Qigong 2x a day. It wasn’t easy to do so but it wasn’t really that difficult either. It’s kind of hard to explain. I hope I can keep it up though.
