Qigong For Anxiety & Overthinking– Introduction
In this video you can follow along with some Qigong for anxiety and overthinking. These tips will help you to improve your abdominal breathing, easing anxiety and panic. They will also help you to transform overthinking and mind chatter into a feeling of calm and focus. Lastly you’ll learn how to help reduce nausea induced by emotions (and also very helpful for simple travel sickness).
1. A simple Qigong stretch to open the chest;
2. Focusing on a longer exhalation to calm and relax the body;
3. The use of the acupuncture point Neiguan (Pericardium 6) and how you can apply pressure to this point. This acupressure point has the effect of:
– calming anxiety and overthinking;
– easing areas of overwhelm which come from fear and anxiety
– reducing nausea from anxiety and panic (because the channel of Qi flow runs through the chest to the heart and the upper belly area) .
