Alchemy is using a multi-layered process to ignite change for the better. Qi Gong is definitely alchemical no matter how it’s practiced because we always feel better for it. That is change for the better. Some qi gong is more alchemical and can be equated to medicine. This qi gong uses a specific multi-layered process to create specific changes.
The multi-layered medical qigong process typically involves some or all of the following:
1) “chi transmission/transformation” by a qualified chi/qi/ki practitioner
2) specific moving and meditation exercises done in a particular order for a particular length of time at a specific time of day (think take 25mg 2x/day morning and night)
3) dietary/environmental changes, if needed.
While all qigong is medical in nature as it makes us feel better in our minds and bodies, “Medical Qigong” follows specific recommendations (think “prescriptions”) that use alchemical chi processes to remove/lessen symptoms, create better chi flow and help restore balance to the entire mindbody. Much of Western Medicine will sacrifice the health and well being of the kidneys and liver (as many medications do) in order to combat pain. As the entire mindbody is important and no one part should be sacrificed to save the whole (unless absolutely necessary), medical qigong treats the entire being in a holistic, whole mindbody/person approach. There are no bad side-effects from medical qigong “prescriptions” and long-lasting, multi-level healing often occurs instead of just symptoms going away or lessening (like with many pills). Medical qigong focuses on healing our entire being not just removing symptoms without addressing underlying or accessory issues.
Since tai chi can be viewed as a complex system of qigong, it too can be formulated into a specific “prescription” but generally has a more whole person healing affect. Because of it’s complex, intricate movements and unseen energy components, tai chi subtly benefits every single component of our complex human existence from physical health to mental well-being to our relationships with each other, ourselves and our planet.
