Natural Dao Qigong
Creating Holistic Harmony
Natural Dao Qigong is a holistic practice that brings the body, breath and mind into greater harmony.
Through simple, flowing movements, you’ll explore how to soften unnecessary effort, follow the natural movement of Qi and allow the body to find greater equilibrium. Rather than trying to make something happen, the practice asks you to listen, respond and allow the movement to unfold.
Natural Dao Qigong works with the body, mind and spirit as an interconnected whole. As you practise, you become more familiar with the feeling of flow and with the subtle shifts that occur when you stop forcing and allow the different aspects of yourself to work together more harmoniously
What this develops
The ability to soften unnecessary effort and allow a greater sense of flow and continuity to emerge within your practice
Greater sensitivity to the movement and qualities of Qi
A deeper sense of equilibrium between body, breath, mind and spirit
The capacity to listen, respond and adapt rather than forcing an outcome
A more integrated experience of Qigong as a whole-body practice
Moving with Qi
Qigong is not simply about learning movements and repeating them. How you move, breathe and give attention influences how Qi moves through the body and how the different aspects of yourself come into relationship.
Natural Dao Qigong invites you to soften unnecessary effort and allow movement to become more responsive. Rather than directing every part of the practice, you begin to listen to what is happening and respond to it, allowing the movement of Qi to guide the practice.
With repetition, you become more familiar with the feeling of flow and with the subtle shifts that occur when you stop forcing and give the body space to find its own equilibrium.
The movement becomes a way of developing your relationship with Qi. You begin to experience the body, breath and mind as an interconnected whole and to recognise the sense of harmony that can emerge when you allow the practice to unfold rather than trying to control it.

A place to begin
If you're newer to Qigong, I recommend beginning with Establish Your Practice. It gives you time and support to establish the foundations and develop a regular relationship with Qigong.
