As Zhineng Qigong students we are faced with the question: how to integrate Qigong into our daily lives? In today's Qigong podcast learn how Martha Work transformed her life and reaped the benefits of incorporating Qigong for daily life as she overcame mental health challenges and generational trauma.
Martha discusses how she was able to leave behind depression and transformed her life with Qigong practice. She had the intention (a foundational aspect of the Zhineng Qigong practice) of improving her mental health, as she didn't want to stay in such a dark, almost isolated place like depression. When practicing Qigong she noticed her negative thoughts transforming into positive thoughts. Showing that Qigong for mental health offers a holistic approach to overcoming depression, allowing individuals to reconnect with their inner and true self, as Qigong became part of her morning routine.
Qigong facilitated healing from toxic parenting. By releasing "heart stones" daily, Martha addressed deep-seated emotional trauma, particularly with her father, enabling inner child healing. This practice provided the balance and resilience needed when she became her mother's caregiver. Enhanced awareness and objectivity, cultivated through consistent Qigong practice, helped her navigate the challenges of caregiving with greater ease.
Martha would hold the body Qi field, a stationary practice but she believes it increased becoming aware of the chatter of her busy and wandering mind & also encourages grounding and centering techniques that foster emotional stability. By embracing heart-opening practices in Qigong, she learnt to approach difficult situations with compassion and understanding.
Ultimately, daily Qigong routines empower individuals to age gracefully with Qigong, reminding them that they are the directors of their lives, capable of fostering joy and resilience.
