Qi Gong, Chi Kung, Khí Công

Qi gong is actual medicine.

Qi gong taps you in to the magnetismical field.

Once you get into a flow state inside your qi gong practice, you will feel it.

It is like standing in a pool of water and wafting your arms around you, focussing on the feeling of the water rushing over your skin.

But the water is subtle.

The subtle water of the space fabric.

Or perhaps the feeling is not going as deep as the fabric of space itself.

But it feels like pushing through a subtle, ambient magnetic field.

Once you are in the flow of qi gong, you can't un-feel it, and you feel supported by it, the same kind of antigravity to your arms as water imparts.
