Chris presents Qigong 102: Secrets of Meditation and Emotional Balance posted at Martial Development, saying, “Qigong (chi gong) is most often understood as a set of active exercises, guiding qi (chi) energy around the body through intention, movement, and sound. It is less well known that Qigong incorporates rigorous courses of standing and seated meditation.”
