How to Pronounce Qigong (And the Two Sounds That Trip Everyone Up)
How to pronounce qigong: the two sounds — chee, falling, and gong, flat and high — that almost everyone gets wrong, and why.
If you are new to qigong, you most probably have lots of questions about what is qi and what is qigong. In this section, you’ll find everything you need to know about qi (chi 氣) and qigong (Chi Kung, Qi Gong 气功). We cover qigong basics for beginners. We also have qigong advance if help you deepen the knowledge. Onenergy Qigong is based on Zhineng Qigong’s scientific theory and method, which you will find in our qigong history section.
How to pronounce qigong: the two sounds — chee, falling, and gong, flat and high — that almost everyone gets wrong, and why.
What to do when emotions come up during qigong: four plain steps — keep moving, keep breathing, don’t chase it, finish and close — plus why a held group field makes it easier.
Can emotions be stored in the body? Not as objects waiting to be found — as qi that never finished moving. A non-clinical look at the child who lets go and the man who does not.
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.
Why do I feel empty after crying instead of calm? A plain, non-medical explanation of 悲则气消 — grief scatters the qi away, and empty is not the same thing as peace.
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.
