Guest guest Posted May 14, 2004 Report Share Posted May 14, 2004 They sell videos. Or video doesn’t give same effect as it is in a class with a group of same-minded people?

They are cooked food eaters, and do advocate eating cooked foods in their practice, however I never felt pressured to do anything I didn't want to, including eating food.

Guest guest Posted May 14, 2004 Report Share Posted May 14, 2004 I've never seen the videos so I cannot fairly say if they would be as good. I would say if you are familiar with energy channels within your body and the movement of the energy that using a tape would likely be just as good. If this would be your first experience with moving the chi within your body taking a class in person would likely be better, as it would allow you to ask questions. Like minded people are always nice to spend time with too, though! Have a wonderful weekend! -Heather viola <Viola816 wrote: They sell videos.

Guest guest Posted May 14, 2004 Report Share Posted May 14, 2004 Yep, I'm familiar with moving energy--prana through yoga. Yoga is keepine me flexible but it isn't making me well. This particular type of qigong has a good reputation for healing. A video would work, but group energy is important. Thanks, everybody, for your kind suggestions.
