Qi Gong: An ancient "soft" Chinese martial art form combining movement, mindful meditation, and focused breathing as a means of cultivating qi, or chi, throughout the body for perceived health benefits and spiritual insights. The slow gentle movements are thought to promote self-healing, strengthen the immune system, release tension and stimulate vitality. Tai Chi, which has more complex movements, originated from the practice of QiGong. See also Tai Chi |
