A new Oslo resident, a native Fin and a real Qigong lover, told us about how she has moved from her former living area to one better suited to her Qigong life. And so her present address is a little nearer to the training premises which, as she put it, makes it easier for her to join our Qi field. Others commented that the course was a very calm one (something much-needed).<\/p>\n<p><h3>Some comments by the participants<\/h3>\n<p> &#8220;I joined my first course and the weekend was a lot of fun&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I believe it&#8217;s six years since I joined my first course and nowadays I&#8217;m a completely different person. Never before has it worked as fine as it did today, or at least that&#8217;s how it felt. My standing posture worked better, and my movements did too. What I&#8217;m absolutely sure of is that this is the first time I managed the knee bend with my eyes closed. I never could do that before, because that would&#8217;ve made me feel faint or like falling over, but this time I could. Thank you very much for that!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/stu-3-small.jpg\" align=\"left\" alt=\"Oslo HQU nov 06\" ><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I&#8217;ve found what it does to me when I neglect the training, then I don&#8217;t have this calm which I&#8217;ve got when I practise regularly. To me it has been particularly helpful against stress and restlessness. It has helped me cope with my everyday life and my work a little better. My blood pressure has improved. It was a good course and although I&#8217;ve practised for this long there still are things which have been clarified and sorted out, and I&#8217;ve learned new things&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I have a head and neck injury and I&#8217;ve got rather a lot of improvements through the training. This weekend I could feel it very strongly and other things have shown up, so now it&#8217;s a little difficult. But I think that those are very good things and then I think that maybe my body will improve even further&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I have a work injury in my back and I&#8217;ve been to lots of various physical therapies, but it didn&#8217;t get any better. But after the first Summer Course it disappeared and it has never returned. Other things have happened too, such as my body feeling lighter, and I feel better mentally&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;If it wasn&#8217;t for this training I&#8217;d be much worse as a person than what I am now&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;By now I&#8217;ve practised for one year. I was looking for something that could help me get rid of my exhaustion depression. Qigong has helped me although there&#8217;s still much left to do&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I thought it was marvellous to be here today. I struggle with a serious disease and Qigong is very good for me. I don&#8217;t know what I&#8217;d do without it since it&#8217;s given me so very much&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>Teacher:<\/p>\n<p><strong>Kate Ohlsson<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>And so it was Oslo&#8217;s turn to host a basic course in Hold Qi Up, and it proved to be a very Nordic course, with participants from Norway, Sweden and Finland.
