What is
Qigong?
Qigong (alternatively spelled chi gung or chi kung) is a form of gentle exercise composed of movements that are repeated a number of times, often stretching the body, increasing fluid movement (blood, synovial and lymph) and building awareness of how the body moves through space.

Taoist Seasons – Late Summer – Earth Element
By Matthew Brewer
The Long Summer
The fifth season is late summer or Indian summer. The Chinese call it Long Summer (chang xia). Its
element is earth. The Chinese element ‘earth’ 土 (tu) holds the same place as the Hindu element ‘akasa’ or
space. It is that which holds and contains everything. It is the bedrock which allows everything else to be.
It’s primary function is integration. By holding everything it allows all of the apparently separate things of
existence to recognise their non-difference.
