Frequently Asked Questions
I am wondering if it is safe to do a Medical Qigong session or Qigong class with a pregnant woman? Thanks!!
Good question. When someone is pregnant relaxation and smoothness of flow is appropriate. So when doing Qigong simply slow and easy movements and breath. Nothing too dramatic like breath of fire or challenging Qigong poses for extended periods of time. Everything mindful.
The same is true for a medical Qigong treatment. Very smooth healing sessions – everything calming. You know if a pregnant person is receiving too much energy during a Medical Qigong session when they get stressed and overtly bumpy? Make sure everything is instead is smooth emotional, soft tears is fine. The emotional catharsis that is “bumpy” while pregnant as opposed to smooth is not recommended.
So watching and holding space and if things start building up, the breathing gets heavier or the blood is pumping harder or you see the face getting red then you need to back off and calm everything down down down. Bring energy back to the feet have the person open and close hands. Ground them. Coach them in a normal breathing pattern ” I want you to breathe in through your nose and slowly exhale through your nose and then mouth. Relax everything is ok.”
But if your paying attention there should be no problem. This isn’t going to happen right away..so simply be watchful and work gently and do no harm..
I loved the online course Alchemizing Stress & Restoring Balance. Would you ever teach that one live again?
Thanks for asking this question. At this time we are only planning on teaching one live intensive course at a time each year or two and then filming the course in a studio. So, we do not plan on reteaching previous workshops from past years. We attempt to create a new course each year so that our students can still receive credit from the acupuncture and massage boards each year to renew their licenses.

David J. Coon, Medical Qigong Master, Head Instructor and Co-Founder of Qigong Awareness, LLC.
Meet David J. Coon
Medical Qigong Master and Author
David is a Medical Qigong Master with over thirty years of experience facilitating healing for people using Medical Qigong. He is currently an accredited continuing education provider by the NCCAOM, Texas Medical Board, CE Broker, Florida State Board for Acupuncture, and California Acupuncture Board.
When David was fifteen years old he was diagnosed with a severe spinal disease and told that he would be crippled by the time he was thirty years old. Unwilling to accept this fate, David began intensively studying Oriental Medicine, Medical Qigong, Martial Arts and Meditation.
David learned how to cultivate and direct the energetic life force called Chi in Traditional Chinese Medicine. Through Qigong practice, David healed his spinal disease completely! David also found that his mood, his attitude, his outlook on life, and his intuition had all increased exponentially. He was drawn to teaching and sharing these healing practices and spiritual counsel with others.
David also has a vast Martial Arts background with Black Belts in Karate, Tae Kwon Do and Kenpo Karate. He has been an Instructor of Jeet Kune Do and Filipino Martial Arts. He has also studied Japanese Ju Jitsu, Kung Fu, Small Circle Ju Jitsu, Aikido, Chen Style Tai Chi, Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, Pen Jak Silat, Kendo and more..
David’s Qigong Practices are underpinned by his Psychology degree from the University of Connecticut and three years of experience as a Professional Counselor in Louisville,Colorado. He also spent three years at the University of Colorado studying Molecular and Cellular Biology to better understand the inner workings of the body on a cellular and biochemical level.
He has taught and lectured around the country to both lay people and professionals about the healing power of Qigong. David’s Qigong practices are now being practiced around the world. They are simple, effective and can be practiced by anyone at any age.
Live your best life and own your greatness. Qigong is a way…..
"Sometimes in your life, you are inspired to change and become extraordinary. At 61 years old, I received my Red Belt in Tae Kwon-Do and also became a Qigong Instructor and Medical Qigong Practioner through Qigong Awareness and David J. Coon. My journey began in 2002, when I met David in the middle of a divorce and a gallbladder attack. I was sick and felt helpless in changing my life. The doctors wanted to remove my gallbladder, however with David's help I healed my gallbladder with the practices of Medical Qigong. I began taking every Qigong class and workshop that David offered. I also began the practice of Tae Kwon-Do taught by David and tested for my Red Belt with Grand Master Kwon Jae-Hwa. It was a mental, emotional, physical training and my life changed in ways that I never thought imaginable. Live your best life and own your greatness. Qigong is a way..... "

I also believe connect with Mr. Coon will benefit people suffering from chronic disease and/or unknown illness.
"To meet NCCAOM recertification requirement, I need to take some
classes. When I saw Mr. Coon’s online Qigong class “The ultimate mind
body medicine”, I was skeptical what I could learn from a hand on
Qigong practice online? After I followed the video instruction, I was
surprised on Mr. Coon’s teaching techniques and experiences. Without
any asian culture background, he makes the qigong so easy to
understand and follow. It is hard to believe the knowledges and
concepts he has regarding Chinese medicine, qigong and philosophy are
100% accurate; even the words he quoted during the class refer to the
Buddha's teaching also 100% accurate. He is a genius.
During the class he has mentioned about the distance healing. Again
this is something hard to believe and proof. I like to share this
remarkable phenomenon with you. I had asked Mr. Coon about the
limitation of qigong practice at day & night. He wrote back to me at 8:07 AM on August 12 ; I wrote to him at 8:36 AM the same morning;
then he responded to me at 8:41 AM right away. During 8:36 AM to 8:41
AM that same morning I felt Mr. Coon was in front of me and our chi
was connected, even though I did not know where he was. It is hard to
describe. But it was simple, I was in his mind and his thought. Mind
is Chi; Chi is mind; When you are focused and concentrated, chi goes
to where your mind goes; Especially when you are in deep meditation,
you are thinking someone in other continental, your chi also will
reach there too. As your meditation progress, the distance healing
power and psychic power will start to develop. I believe Mr. Coon has
these powers. I also believe connect with Mr. Coon will benefit people
suffering from chronic disease and/or unknown illness.

It is hard for me to express exactly what I’m feeling but this course resonated with me on a much deeper level…
Thank you!
It is hard for me to express exactly what I'm feeling but this course resonated with me on a much deeper level than "Alchemizing Stress". The energy was more palpable and the philosophy combined with technique application was tangible. Maybe it's because of the lesson. Maybe it is because Qigong is now more a part of my everyday life. Maybe because of something else. Maybe all of the above.
Again, my words fail me at this point to truly express on what I can only describe as what I feel or taste. They do not however elude me so much that they do allow me to say a heartfelt "Thank You!". 🙂
Winifred Boyd, LACWestbury, NYSeptember 17, 2018
This class has reignited my passion for Qigong and I thank you!
"I loved this class! This class has reignited my passion for Qigong and I thank you! I look forward to attending more classes. Much gratitude, love and light! ️"
I’ve done the whole intensive from the comfort of my home. Thank you for this wonderful journey!
I have been practicing Qigong locally in Switzerland for about three years, but I took the online intensive with Qigong Awareness because I had already been using the short videos of David’s explaining various extremely useful movements and their benefits. I work as a private Mental Health Counselor and Life Coach. My intention is to help my clients with a variety of techniques. It happened so that I had a few clients with burnout, high levels of stress and fatigue, and I’d successfully introduced some of the movements that I learned from David already on youtube. I knew I needed to learn more from him, so here I am still practicing 8 treasures locally, and learning from David to become an instructor. The Medical Qigong is beneficial for the whole being, and it brings me the sense of stillness, calms me down, or wakes me up when I need the energy for work or any other mental, or physical task.
The fact that the course is online, it will not bring me recognition for Continuous Education within my country, but what I really want is learning and training so that I can provide more options for my clients to live healthier, more balanced lives.
The videos were explained in detail, depth, with a lot of additional information from David, and I printed out the booklet as well.
I was able to train with the participants on the screen, completely absorbed, and I stopped the video whenever I needed to write down what I just heard from David.
I’ve done the whole intensive from the comfort of my home. Yes, it took me a few morning hours, but it was well worth the money and effort. I look forward to continue training and learning more from Qigong Awareness. The follow up was extremely accurate and fast. The test and questionnaires at the end were well prepared and they made me revise quite a bit before I could reply. It means that they make sure for a participant off-site to retain the important knowledge. Thank you for this wonderful journey!

I am full-heartedly looking forward to furthing my Qigong practices.
“Great Course! Your teachings sincerely resonated with me. The meditations were absolutely fabulous and were so satisfying to my being. David helped to make these exercises accessible during the course, while allowing enough practice time to also incorporate these into my daily life. Even after one weekend I feel invigorated and inspired. I am full-heartedly looking forward to furthing my Qi Gong practices.”

I always enjoy the Qigong classes from Qigong Awareness…
I always enjoy the Qigong classes from Qigong Awareness because I know that they help improve me as a practitioner and I gain new tools to assist my patients.
…the patient felt a “wow” sensation and further relief of pain. I’m jazzed!
After completing a case of treating piriformis sciatica I decided to do Qigong washing and healing hands to the hip which was the perfect compliment to the treatment. From only about 2 minutes of Medical Qigong work the patient felt a "wow" sensation and further relief of pain.
