After a course in EasyCare Wellness Qigong the pain that Johanna used to suffer from in her neck and arm disappeared. Her way to handle a though situation also changed.
I have practised Qigong for quite some time and attended many courses in Zhineng Qigong and Shenxin Qigong. When the online course EasyCare Wellness Qigong was introduced, the ordinary physical courses had been on hold for quite some time, due to the corona pandemic. For me, and probably for many other Qigong practitioners, the absence of physical courses was noticeable in many ways. Fortunately, I had been able to participate in the online training, which felt good. Nevertheless, my everyday life was a struggle.
I was in the middle of a hideous chaos. My father passed away after five years of severe sickness. Me and my sister lived in an emotional roller coaster during his period of illness. Life was harsh, filled with care disputes, legal processes, and uncomfortable surprises. His last year, after being diagnosed with Alzheimer, he could finally move to a nursing home. I felt a temporarily relief of anxiousness.
After my father passed away the struggle continued. In short, the partition of joint property was an extremely challenging process with adrenaline rushes and mental fatigue as consequences. We had to struggle not to get in trouble and the situation was harsh and unpleasant. My life revolved around this struggle and I couldn´t concentrate on anything else. The level of mental pressure complicated my everyday life. I couldn´t manage simple household chores, had a mental overdrive, I couldn´t be still or calm, I had vertigo, pressure over my chest, and constant headache. I didn´t dare to drive my car after a few close calls. My daughter became very worried and recommended me to find help.
EasyCare Wellness as a Helping Hand
I felt a big change already during the course. I noticed immediate effect in terms of elevated energy and a mental calm. The whole day after the course I felt relaxed and in a good mood! Like if someone opened a door, for the first time in many weeks I didn´t have any headache and my thoughts could focus on other things than my struggle. My curiosity awakened and I could fully enjoy a regular walk in the forest, just as I used to do. It was indescribably liberating.
The following evening, after the online training with EasyCare and Hold Qi Up, I became so tired that I fell asleep sitting in a chair. I could hardly manage to brush my teeth before bedtime. The morning after I noticed the painful tensions in my neck and one of my arms, that had been troubled me for a long time, were gone. I smiled laying there in my bed, I felt very relieved. My way of seeing the situation had changed totally.
By experience I know that it´s thanks to Qigong I have been able to continue my fight and think ahead, to believe that everything will be okay. It´s not the first time. I haven´t been able to work very much because all other commitments have taken my time and energy, but I have been able to get up every morning to handle things.
After the course in EasyCare Wellness Qigong I can see my situation in the right perspective. I´m able to relax in a new way and I feel physically stronger. Every morning and forenoon I practise the Kai He-exercise to get stronger and to have enough mental strength to handle the day. It´s not hard to take the time needed for the training and it´s easy to perform.
The evening training is still, after four weeks, tiring but at the same time I feel a new kind of relief and lightness in my body. Shortly after the course I got a huge flow of inspiration and were able to work on a text that had been laying around for some time. The text that I finally completed shall be used in a project that I will take part in and together with a preschool. I can finally participate again, thanks to the training I know that I will have the energy to handle it, it makes me very grateful and happy.
Despite that the chaotic struggle which will continue for some time I have faith in the future. I can see the end of my despair. I´m waiting for the time to grieve my father in a healing way and, for the first time, enjoy being a grandmother. To practise Qigong helps me to focus on the right things, it keeps me physically strong, it makes my mind calm and stable with both feet on the ground.
