Student Shares After Completing Online 15 CEU Course — Medical Qigong For The Peaceful Warrior

This is a personal perspective that I share. Twenty + years ago, I briefly studied Tai Qi in college, and it was enjoyable, along with being beautiful to observe. I practiced and practiced and met my goals all along, knowing the stances were all about self-protection. That’s nice, but it did not give me a warm and fuzzy feeling. I briefly studied Qigong in college and thought the stances were merely exercises moving the qi. After taking Medical Qigong with David Coon, I am aware of a whole new – eye-opening – practice of Energy work. It was the term “Medical” that grabbed me. David teaches of the Peaceful – Warrior and why both came about and are necessary to a student’s understanding. Each exercise he teaches encompasses which chakra it affects, which hormones are released from the endocrine system, and how the exercise heals on energetic, physical, and emotional levels. And then, he adds so much more: spiritual understanding, conscious awareness, and comparisons to religious doctrines from many countries around the world. It doesn’t stop there – he teaches you to be a teacher! Once done, you don’t leave empty-handed. You’ve done the exercises with him so many times they feel second nature. You know why you’re doing them. How to help yourself, patients/clients, classes, and even others – from a distance. This class is highly recommended.
