A Journey into Qigong, Tai Chi, and Self-Transformation

Dr. Roger Jahnke shares his journey beginning with a focus on Chinese Medicine and Oriental Medicine.

Starting as a doctor of Integrative Medicine clinic in Santa Barbara, Dr. Jahnke was drawn to the ancient wisdom of Chinese medicine but found something more—a way to empower individuals to heal themselves, rather than relying on external treatments.

This quest led to a pivotal shift toward Qigong and Tai Chi practices that activate the body's natural healing resources. Through "The Healer Within" book and the founding of the Institute of Integral Qigong and Tai Chi, they have now trained thousands of teachers and leaders, inspiring communities around the world to embrace self-healing.

Experience powerful results from effective exercises, self-massage, and meditation techniques. Dr. Jahnke's video library of Healer Within Medical Qigong is available to stream!

This program includes:

- Gentle Qigong exercises
- Acupressure 'self-massage' methods
- Health-giving breathing practices
- Relaxation and meditation methods to calm and focus the mind

What are your tips for keeping your energy balanced in Winter?

16/01/2025

Embracing Winter with Traditional Chinese Medicine

Winter is a great time for pausing, reflecting, and renewing your energy. In Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), Winter is related to the Water element and your kidneys. Some simple diet changes and self-care habits can help replenish your energy and keep it flowing, warming you through the cold months.

An article called "Embracing Winter with Traditional Chinese Medicine" shares some easy ways to keep you warm through nutrition and reflection:

"To start, you can take a look in your kitchen.

So much of our health begins with the food we put into our bodies. It's found best to avoid cold, raw foods and to instead focus on warming foods that will help generate energy, rather than deplete it. Eating cold foods in cold seasons means your body will be working extra hard to generate warmth...

Take a deep breath. It's okay to rest.

Winter is the time for inward energy, for self care, and reflection. The quietness is welcoming to our strung-out senses. We are now at the beginning of a new cycle, getting ready to blossom into spring. It can be hard to let go of our work stress and overstimulation in exchange for quiet inward reflection.

Our nervous systems are overwhelmed and ready to slow things down. Some ways to help strengthen and grow your energy can be as simple as a nourishing oil hair mask and warm bath, or tuning in with meditation. Slow, stretching exercises pair well with winter, as it's best to avoid too much strenuous activity.

Just let your body move freely. Book that deep tissue massage you've been dreaming of and lean into relaxation. KI3 is one of the best winter acupressure points as it's said to be the source point for the kidneys' energetic system."

What is Primordial Qigong?

"What is it that lies between Heaven and Earth?

It's life — the merging of Earth forces and Heaven forces within our own being.

The energies of the earth create living things from the soil and water, the energies above us create life from cosmic influences of sun and moon and stars and planets."

— Dr. Roger Jahnke
