Healthy Self Therapeutic Massage and Bodywork

When practicing Qigong Meditation... you focus on your breathing, and visualize the Universal light coming in through your skin, to all parts of your body, and you feel this deep connection you have with the Universe.

Most of the energy we need to have a healthy body, mind, and spirit comes through our breathing.

When you inhale, visualize the energy coming in through your skin, running through all the cells in your body, and collecting in your lower dantian.

When you exhale, you visualize all the energy you don’t need. Just say in your mind...
“all the energy I don’t need in my body is changing into smoke, shooting out from every part of my body to the ends of the Universe.”


You can visualize your body just like a star shining, shooting out the energy, radiating the heat out. That’s the way you can imagine.

You can visualize sending that light out through your skin. And you feel that moment. You feel this deep connection to everything around you, and to the entire Universe.

Many Blessings,
Chunyi Lin

Fascia is amazing!

Fascia is the biological fabric that holds us together, the connective tissue network. You are about 70 trillion cells — neurons, muscle cells, epithelia — all humming in relative harmony; fascia is the 3D spider web of fibrous, gluey, and Fasciawet proteins that binds them together in their proper placement.- Anatomy Trains

“Even if you’ve never heard the word ‘Qigong’ before, you have been doing it all your life, you may have just not realized it.”

Qigong means “working with energy.” It does not mean “doing your qigong exercises and meditations.”

So, yes, it is BEST if you make time to do Small Universe or the Butterfly Meditation and the healing movements.

But that’s a limited view of Qigong. You can do Qigong anywhere, anytime, all day long.

How about this?

When you go grocery shopping, try to smile with love every time someone makes eye contact with you.
Smiling opens your heart, and it helps to open the heart of the other person.
The love you share this way is the most powerful healing energy there is, and smiling releases endorphins in your own body – which help you to heal. What do you think happens when you keep doing that?

When you are standing in line, sitting in traffic, or sitting at home, practice energy breathing.
That means visualizing healing energy entering every pore of your skin, running between all your cells, and gathering deep behind your navel when you breathe in, then visualizing any pain or sickness leaving the body as smoke – out through the pores, going to the ends of the sky.

This breathing is a foundation of Spring Forest Qigong, and you can do it any time, anywhere, with no physical effort.

Before you leave the house every morning or before you go to bed every night, take a few seconds to close your eyes and give thanks for ten things in your life.

They can be as simple as, “I am thankful I have food today” or “I am thankful for a chance to have a better day today.”

Gratitude helps the kidney energy, and kidney energy is the body’s vitality.

The more you can support the kidney energy, the faster you can heal and the more energy you will have to do everything you like.

So you see my friend, you can bring your qigong practice into every moment, not just by doing movements and meditations.

Join me (online) this Saturday, 3/28, when I attend an IMMUNE BOOSTING WORKSHOP!

This workshop will be taught by an amazing Missoula instructor. I believe it will be a valuable resource for all of us and can help us not only during this challenging time, but throughout everyday life too! Cost is $35. if you are interested please contact Angi@body401k.com

More info from Angi:
Many of you have been asking for a workshop to discuss how to boost the immune system during this time where infection is highly probable. Gavin (licensed Acupuncturist and my husband!) and I are working together to create an AMAZING 90-minute workshop where we will discuss how to boost your immune system utilizing Chinese Medicine and Neurology.

Saturday Workshop: Boosting your Immunity with
Neurology and Chinese Medicine

Boosting your immunity isn't just popping Vit C supplements and washing your hands. A healthy immune system incorporates the gut health, the mindset, a functioning nervous system and balanced lifestyle.

In addition to the 90-minute lecture, you'll receive the Immune Boosting Qigong video, yours to download and keep.

Workshop begins at 9am on Saturday 3/28, it will be 90 minutes.
You'll receive a few handouts via email to help with note taking and my hope is to have the Qigong video available for early registers as soon as Tuesday so you can start practicing at home before Saturday's workshop.

Price: $35 per person who wants to attend.

Email angi@body401k.com if you want more details on Saturday's workshop.
