For some years now, we’ve had a training course in Almuñécar, Spain, situated an hour drive from Malaga. During one-week qi-gong students from Sweden, Norway and Finland have combined practicing qi-gong with a holiday in the sun. In addition, we have also created activities for Scandinavians and others who live in Almuñécar in the winter. During the weekend of 17- 18 of February we held our second course in Hold Qi Up in Almuñécar. Some of the participants repeated the course but most people joined the course for the first time. Everybody can now join the local group for practicing. Those still left in the last week of April, when we have our training course, can also join our morning training at the beach.
Here are some reflections from the participants of the course:
Like Myself More
“I participated last year’s course here in Almuñécar. The training has given me better quality of life, a greater presence within myself. I walk slower, and I like myself more. It has also helped me to “go inside myself” before I perform a massage.”
No Pains Today
“I have no pains in my body today!”
Soft!
“I slept well all night through. Normally I’m very stiff but now I feel really soft.”
Will Help Me
“I’m a perfectionist and have lived my life in 100 mph. I got burnt out 10 years ago and always take on too much. This will help me with that.”
Can Bend Down
“I’m repeating the course, I attended last year here. The past year I have been practicing a lot. Last year I couldn’t bend down and reach my feet. But now I can.”
Best Night in Years
“I hope this can help calm the noise in my life. Normally I sleep very bad, waking up every hour. Last night I slept well all night through, the best night in years!
Alert in the Morning
“I feel glad. Woke up this morning, feeling alert and it was easy to go out and take a walk before breakfast.”
The Power of the Mind
“I’ve had both cancer and heart attacks, but in my mind I think that I’m well. I like that the power of the mind is a part of this method.”
More Relaxed
“I need more qi to be able to give more in my work. I’m more relaxed and have slept well all through the night.”
Asthma
“I have problems with asthma and oxygenation. I’m hoping to reduce my medication.”
