Qigong for Lymphatic Circulation and Immunity – Introduction
If you have been enjoying these classes during the last couple of months and you’d like to donate something by way of a thank you, I’ll be giving 50% of donations to the ICU nurses in my local hospital. Click here to donate.
Introduction To Qigong for Lymphatic Circulation
In this video you can follow along with some Qigong for lymphatic circulation and immunity enhancement. The function of the lymphatic system is to clear debris such as bacteria and viruses from your body. For this reason it is closely related to your immune system.
Symptoms of poor lymphatic drainage include cold hands and feet, fluid accumulation and a weakened immune system.
How We Can Use Qigong for Lymphatic Circulation
Qigong can help to enhance the flow of lymph and remove any areas of stagnation in three main ways:
1. Using Abdominal Breathing. Click here for more details;
2. Moving the body which can increase lymph circulation by up to 15%. You can do this by practising the Circles method, the tapping method which you can follow along with in the video, or any other physical movement;
3. Posture. Any inversion will work well in helping lymph flow. Simply lying down with your legs elevated on pillows or the “legs up the wall” yoga posture (as demonstrated in the video) will be very helpful.
For more information see my previous blog post on “Qigong for Lymphatic Drainage” here.
Integration into Your Day
You can perform Abdominal Breathing anytime you have the opportunity. Movements such as walking which is part of day to day life will help improve the circulation of your lymph. The tapping and legs up the wall exercises can be done in a matter of minutes so don’t take too much time. Having said that, there is nothing more relaxing for lying with your legs up the wall for 15-30 minutes if you have the time!

Qigong for Balance and Ears – Introduction
If you have been enjoying these classes during the last couple of months and you’d like to donate something by way of a thank you, I’ll be giving 50% of donations to the ICU nurses in my local hospital. Click here to donate.
Introduction To Qigong for Balance & Ears
In this video you can follow along with some Qigong for balance and ears. Having good balance is important in order to prevent falls, especially in seniors where the consequences of a broken bone can be very serious. Athletic performance can also be enhanced with improved balance. Many sports require finely tuned balance and timing. Even simple walking or cycling requires good balance.
Many of us know that the ears are closely connected with our sense of balance. Ear infections or conditions such as vertigo, Meniere’s disease and labyrinthitis can have a serious detrimental impact upon our balance. The video on this page also shows you some massage to stimulate the acupuncture points around your ears to improve the flow of Qi to this area. Also, in Traditional Chinese Medicine, the ears are the sense organ associated with the Kidney system so a simple lower back/kidney massage is also demonstrated for you to follow along with.
Qigong for Balance and Ears – Method
1. Adopt the Qigong sitting or standing posture (more here).
2. Begin with Abdominal Breathing to get into the “Qigong State” of calm and relaxation (more details here).
3. As you breathe, identify the areas where you are holding tension by mentally scanning from your head to your toes. Exhale and in your mind’s eye visualise relaxing and expanding the area which is tense.
4. Build leg strength to give yourself confidence around your balance, knowing that your legs can safely and securely support you. To do this adopt a horse stance (more here) and practice an exercise such as the “Circles” exercise to encourage Qi circulation the four directions (see more detail here).
5. Follow along with ear massage and ear pulling to stimulate the acupuressure points around the ears.
6. Massage the lower back/kidney area to stimulate and invigorate the flow of Qi in the kidney system.
In order to develop better balance you can find a few minutes to practice any of the above Qigong for balance and ears during the course of your day. Remember, if you are not confident with your balance, to move slowly and deliberately, making sure your footing is firm and you feel grounded before moving your body.
