Qigong For Energy Protection – Introduction
In Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) our Qi performs a number of different functions. One of the functions of our Qi is to protect us from external pathogens. Our protective defensive Qi, called Wei Qi in TCM, extends beyond the skin surface. When our Wei Qi is weak pathogens and disease can enter our body and we may fall ill. When our Wei Qi is robust and strong, pathogens cannot enter and so we do not become ill.
We can also use our Wei Qi to help protect us from negative people, so called “energy vampires” and negative or unhealthy environments. By using Qigong to put a strong protective “bubble” of Wei Qi around our bodies we can still interact with negative people and be in environments which may be stuffy, damp, smelly etc. and be protected to a large extent.
In this video you can follow along with a Qigong meditation and a simple physical movement combined with exhalation which can help you to create your own ball or bubble of protective Wei Qi.
Integrating Qigong For Energy Protection Into Your Day
Use the meditation to prepare your Wei Qi before going into social settings or places that you know can drain your energy and leave you feeling exhausted or emotional.
Use the “finger flicking with exhalation” method as you are interacting with negative people or in unhealhy surroundings in order to rid the toxic Qi before it even has the opportunity to infiltrate your body or mind! Once you have practised this technique a few times you’ll realise just how useful and powerful it can be!

Introduction To Qigong Meditation to Ease Physical Discomfort and Pain
In this video you can follow along with a Qigong meditation to ease physical discomfort and pain. Pain is something that we all experience from time to time so this is a useful technique to employ. It’s also very simple. We combine the breath and the mind in order to ease discomfort and pain wherever we feel it in our bodies. You can practice this method from a standing, sitting or prone posture which means it’s suitable for anyone, no matter how much pain may be restricting your range of movement.
Method- Qigong Meditation to Ease Physical Discomfort and Pain
1. Adopt the Qigong sitting, standing or lying down posture (more here).
2. Begin with Abdominal Breathing to get into the “Qigong State” of calm and relaxation (more details here).
3. Follow along with my voice as I talk you through the meditation.
4. Choose an area of your body that is causing you discomfort or pain. Follow along with my voice as I talk you through a meditation to help ease the discomfort.
5. End with Abdominal Breathing.
6. Massage the area of discomfort or pain (if you can reach it) in order to promote circulation and nourishment in the area.
Integration into Your Day
You can perform this meditation anytime you have a few minutes. If you would like to listen to an audio of me talking you through this meditation then my Qigong meditations bundle is here.

Today I’m going to describe a different way of talking and thinking about health from a Chinese medicine point of view in comparison to how we think of it in the Western world. I’ll also tell you about how you can use Qigong for prevention of illness.
My name is Janice Tucker and I’m a Chinese medicine and medical Qigong practitioner. I’m also the founder of the Space To Relax online video programme of Qigong lessons.
Below is a quote from the most important Chinese medicine text, dating back more than 2000 years, called the Huang Di Nei Jing:
“To administer medicine after an illness begins is like digging a well after becoming thirsty or casting weapons after a battle has been engaged”.
The idea around health in Chinese medicine and Qigong is more preventative; it’s all about being prepared. Illness is obviously a possibility in the future but it is also something which can be prevented if we are prepared. This means taking the right steps to manage our lifestyle, diet, exercise and other things that we do on a day to day basis.
The essence of medical Qigong is to learn and practice Qigong exercises which allow us to prevent any illness from taking root in the first place. This is similar to weeds taking root in your garden. If you allow the seeds to germinate and grow into huge weeds then you quickly end up with a garden which has been taken over by the plants you don’t want. Once they are established they are also more difficult to remove. If you pull up the weeds before they become established, while they are still small, then they are very easy to remove and you can keep your garden clear so that you can grow all the flowers and vegetables you want to grow.
Similarly, in your body, if you let things take root and don’t do anything to regularly clear out what you don’t want then the “weeds” (illness) soon take over. Then you are not able to flourish to the best of your potential.
In Chinese medicine, Qigong and acupuncture we work to be continuously “weeding the garden”. These methods offer you a very easy way in which you can use Qigong for prevention of illness. Qigong methods can eliminate the root cause of disease and also prevent illness or disease from taking root in the first place. The practice of Qigong allows the smooth flow of Qi to be maintained. Your Qi is the “vital energy” in your body so if that is flowing smoothly then you maintain the best health possible.
If you’d like to learn a few methods of Qigong for prevention of illness and to “stop the weeds from taking root”, go to my Space To Relax homepage to download a free 3 part Qigong video course showing you some excellent exercises to:
1. Get you started on being able to manage your health
2. Stop the weeds from taking root
3. Maintain the smoothest possible flow of Qi on a regular basis
