Wu Chi position
To start your Qi Gong practice we need to begin in a basic position of primal energy. This is called the Wu Chi position. Essentially you are standing still and paying attention to your body turning your awareness inward. This is a key in unlocking your energy centre. It is preferred to practice outdoors with your back towards the sun and it’s not a good idea to stand in the rain. If you are inside you might want to find a quiet room and even listen to some soft instrumental music.
Watch the video below with these ideas in mind:
- imagine that your body is hanging like a puppet
- feel yourself relaxing and sinking down
- calm your mind
- inhale and exhale through your nose
- start with practicing daily for 60 seconds and build up to 5 minutes.
