Von der hinteren Coverseite

Qigong is the centuries-old practice of moving vital energy (Qi) through the channels of the body to achieve vitality and health. This book presents a set of accessible Qigong exercises and breathing techniques adapted specifically for older people who may be frail or have limited mobility, and to address specific symptoms associated with dementia. The movements are presented with clear explanatory illustrations and accompanying online videos, and include exercises for the hands and feet, exercises for releasing emotions through the Five Animal Sounds, seated exercises and facial exercises. The book also describes the Chinese understanding of nutrition as an essential underpinning of good health into old age and provides health-giving recipes based on these principles.
