Well young lady you are doing a great job! Iam a 75yr old grandma who until 8yrs ago was very active, the I fell down a mountain and broke bones and now suffer withRA all the time. I found your channel and I keep a sturdy chair behind me and my walker in front so I don’t loose my balance while doing your routine. I am feeling very happy and hopefully from your positive encouragement and my balance and pain is slowly improving, so please keep up the good work us old ones are benefiting from you bless you sweetheart !

The more I do these, the more I realize how this is probably more important than any work out routine.
You whole system needs to be centered and strong. It's such a great way to start the day.

[jessann]

That is incredible. How lucky are we to have such unlimited knowledge at our finger tips? Thank you!

I am 68 and made it half way through. It is very nice and I will continue trying until I reach strength and discipline to complete this entire exercise. Thank you for uploading it, so many people will find this helpful.

Marissa, today is the first day that I have ever done Qigong. I watched and followed one youtube qigong video just before yours. I have been putting off doing this all my life. I am 64. Now, that I desperately need it, it has found me. I almost stopped a few times while doing this however, I kept at it. The standing meditation was wonderful. You have done a wonderful job. Namaste.

Upon going into Coronavirus lockdown a month ago I was looking for a gentle exercise course in order to avoid stagnation and the negative feeling of being isolated. I came across this video which I have been practising along with every day since then. I enjoy your lucid yet gentle approach to Qigong and can say with confidence that it is making a big difference to my sense of well being as I feel more connected to Nature and energised as I go about my daily routines. So I am going to continue with this practice and make it a normal part of my everyday life from now on in. With gratitude and thanks, Teresa.

Have been a couch potato for 2 years. This has me moving and feeling so much better. Thank you so much!

[gudrohi]

I know how Myofascial release can trigger this deep emotion and events in your life and can make you emotional. I never knew I would start to release some tears at the end of this session. It’s like my body needed to release that....that unknown stored emotion. Thank you for this calming and well explained video ! Loved the background and the instructor !

[verybrown]

Thank you for this video. I have undergone cancer treatment and I’ve been so fatigued. Doing your video has made a difference in my energy level. I realize that I have spent a lot of time responding to pain and not to wellness. This was such a revaluation to me. Again Thank you.

[tamaraloomis]

Thank you so much for posting this video. Your guidance, voice, and movements are so amazing. I have been in such a dark and enervated state for so many years. This was my first try at Qi Gong and it was incredible. I was so surprised to feel tears come to my eyes half way through, but then I realized I was letting go of (a tiny bit of) the negativity that I had stored in my body. I am so happy to have found you and Qi Gong.

[aBeccasaur]

I just wanted to say thank you so much for posting this video. Your guidance combined with the movements are so incredibly relaxing. I sometimes have panic attacks at night and this REALLY helps to redirect my focus and calm me down. I can’t thank you enough!💜

[leaakiona]

this was my first time. I cried at the end of the exercise. It felt so good and was very easy to follow along. thank you.
