Why do you feel unsettled after qigong, hours after the practice ended? Usually it is not the emotion that moved — it is stopping mid-practice instead of closing properly.

Feeling flat and tired as autumn draws in and the evenings close early? Here is why shorter days pull your energy down — and a simple five-minute qigong practice to steady it.
Should you let yourself cry it out during qigong, or hold it back? Neither. The qi mechanism behind grief explains why pouring it all out spends what your practice just built.
Why do I bend over when I laugh and can’t stand up straight? A hard laugh empties your chest qi and your body folds to reconnect it with the dantian.
Why do I feel angry during qigong with no one to be angry at? Qi rushing upward on its own can bring anger with it. Here is the mechanism, plainly explained.
Why do I get emotional during meditation for no reason? The same feeling door that moves qi in qigong opens in meditation, massage, and yoga too.
