When I was really young, less than two years old I had problems as well but they disappeared when I grew older. During my childhood and adolescence I was free from symptoms.<\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Severe eczema<\/h2>\n\n<p>From the age of 20 up until 2 years ago I&#8217;ve tried to find relief against my severe eczema. I&#8217;ve creamed with cortisone, I&#8217;ve tried light therapy, I took homeopathic preparation, I tried different diets and I&#8217;ve been hospitalized for treatment. Unfortunately none of this has helped me more permanently. It only relieved the symptoms. I had eczema all over my body. My face, my chest, my scalp and the bend of my arms and legs were worst. Some days I was crying in front of the mirror, wondering how I could go to work, looking that ugly. It was itching terribly both days and nights. The itching became a kind of learned behaviour. I scratched without thinking.<\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Zhineng Qigong<\/h2>\n\n<p>In the autumn of 2005 I decided to give Zhineng Qigong a try. I had been in touch with Zhineng Qigong in 1998. At that time I attended a course but I wasn&#8217;t motivated enough to practice by myself. Now I signed up for a course in November. The course became the beginning of my new life. The training was a bit hard but I decided to give it a try. I practiced almost daily and in the summer of 2006 I attended my first summer course. My motivation increased a lot by hearing about and seeing all the other\u00b4s improvements. I kept on practicing at home and I attended some more courses. In the summer of 2006 I didn&#8217;t have much eczema left. Just a little bit in the bend of my arm and in periods I had a small spot in the bend of my legs. I didn&#8217;t dare to hope that the improvements would last during the winter. In wintertime my eczema always got worse due to the cold and dry air. Thanks to my diligent practice I was free from symptoms in November 2006.<\/p>\n\n<p>My mother and father were celebrating their gold wedding and I went to town and bought a nice, red and low-necked dress. I had never been able to buy a dress like that before as my chest used to be sore from itching. The dress had shorts sleeves as well so that I could show my arms to my relatives. I felt great! I called my sister to tell her about my outfit and she told me that she had bought the same dress. She had thought that &#8220;Karin, with her eczema, will never choose such a low necked dress.&#8221; I was the one wearing the dress at the party. My sister had to choose something else so that we wouldn&#8217;t look like twins.<\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Milk allergy, hayfever and asthma<\/h2>\n\n<p>Of course it made me very happy to get rid of my severe eczema. But as a bonus I discovered that I got even more improvements. I&#8217;m very allergic. A doctor told me once that I could just as well move to the moon as there were so many things that I couldn&#8217;t suffer. Now I can stay on earth. My milk allergy disappeared after my first summer course. I could have yogurt for breakfast every morning again and I could eat cream cake at a party. I used to get a lot of red eczema around my mouth.<\/p>\n\n<p>My slight asthma has almost disappeared. When I tried the peak expiratory flow it showed that my lung capacity has increased year by year.<\/p>\n\n<p>Before the summer course this year I could cut down all the faded marguerites on the lawn. I did it without getting allergy. Before I couldn&#8217;t have a single marguerite!<\/p>\n\n<p>I&#8217;m very happy and grateful for finding this good method to improve my health. It feels great knowing that me, myself, can influence it by practicing. I don&#8217;t need any special equipment or to be in a special place \u2013 I can practice wherever I am, whenever I want to! I wish everybody can have this possibility!<\/p>\n\n<p><strong>Karin Ask<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>My whole grown up life I&#8217;ve suffered from atopic eczema or atopic dermatitis.
