"Sometimes the most important thing in a whole day is the rest we take between two deep breaths."
- Etty Hillesum
Relaxation Meditation
The Relaxation meditation is part of the beginning Qigong practice and is included in our Beginning Qigong Meditation home study kit. As I stated in the Qigong Meditation article, "Relaxation itself improves the flow of Qi in the body, since the restrictions to flow, like tension and pressure, are released." The "Relaxation Meditation" will guide you to relax your body, to let go of tension. I encourage you to try it once a day for a few weeks. You can listen to it more often if you want because it will only enhance the relaxation effect. You can listen to it in the morning to start the day in a calm state. You can listen to it anytime that you become stressed or emotional to calm down and relax. You can listen to it in the evening to take your mind off the worries of the day. And, you can listen to it just before bed to calm your body and mind, which will help you to fall asleep.
Relaxation helps to activate the body's natural healing ability. Over time it helps to activate the healing function of the nervous system, the parasympathetic nervous system, which enhances immunity, digestion and healing. It's amazing to think that something so simple as relaxation can have such a profound healing effect in the body. Click here to read more about relaxation from our previous article.
