Welcome to Qigong: The 18 Forms, a six-part practice with Mimi Kuo-Deemer that guides you through a classic, meditative sequence that encourages slow, nature-based movement and deep, rich breath-awareness.
Join us once a week for the next six weeks as we move through the subtle, gentle practice of Qigong. When done properly, qigong improves the circulation of your vital energy, or qi, as well as the blood and breath without feeling taxing or depleting.
No matter your age or abilities, these daily practices support optimal health and vitality in all layers of life: physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual.
𖦹 DAY TWO 𖦹
It’s essential to know how to breathe during qigong. In this lesson, you will imagine your lungs like the branches and leaves of a tree, helping you take breaths that are long, slow, even, fine, and deep. This will settle you into your body and the present moment.

Qi is carried by breath and through the blood. Dantian breathing encourages and supports deeper breathing, which in turn aids the body’s energy flow and regulates your nervous system.
