I have problems with my shoulders. One is totally locked. I&#8217;ve been on sick leave because of my shoulder. I declared that I should start to practise Qigong if my hands became agile again. And here I am. I want to be able to take responsibility for my health. I thought a lot about having a positive attitude. My shoulder likes to do this movement. It feels like there is more energy in my shoulders. I&#8217;m happy there&#8217;s a group that get together and practise every Thursday here in Mariehamn.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><h3>Corrections <\/h3>\n<p> &#8220;I joined this course because I wanted to start practise again. Now I want to attend more weekend courses. I got many tips and corrections during the course. I felt inner happiness when I came yesterday and now it feels even better.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I have concentrated on the standing posture. I have done a few corrections, which made it easier to practise.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><h3>Lumbago, Blood Pressure <\/h3>\n<p> &#8220;Before I started to practise Qigong I often had lumbago. I have now practised for fifteen years and during this time I got lumbago only once. And that was during a summer when I didn&#8217;t practise that much. A while ago my blood pressure was really high. The doctor gave me medicine and the instructions to start using it immediately. I gave Qigong a week and during that time my blood pressure was normalized.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/stu-mariehamn-sep-2010-ny.jpg\" align=\"left\" alt=\"Mariehamn LUQ september 2010 Ny\" ><\/p>\n<p><h3>Patience<\/h3>\n<p> &#8220;I have bad patience, I believe this is good for me.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><h3>Satisfaction <\/h3>\n<p> &#8220;I have participated in every course since I started to practise Qigong. It gives me a lot of satisfaction to practise Qigong. I like to meet all the new participants. I like La Qi because I can feel qi when we do that exercise.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><h3>Stress <\/h3>\n<p> &#8220;The training makes me feel good. My ability to handle stress has increased.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><h3>Qigong as an art form <\/h3>\n<p> &#8220;I often say that I have one life before Qigong and one after. I immediately felt when I started to practise Qigong that this is good. I got a lot of help from the training. Qigong is a kind of art that is very enriching.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><h3>Calm <\/h3>\n<p> &#8220;I started to practise one year ago. It&#8217;s been a fruitful year. The training makes me calm.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><h3>Prevention Purpose <\/h3>\n<p> &#8220;I&#8217;ve played a lot of ball games during my life. I felt that I wanted to start something new now when I will retire. A friend told me about Qigong. I practise with purpose of preventing health problems. It&#8217;s better to start before you get pain.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><h3>Appealed by the Philosophy <\/h3>\n<p> &#8220;I didn&#8217;t know anything about Qigong before the course. The philosophy appeals to me. The most thought provoking is to realise how bad my body control is. I want to give Qigong a chance.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Teacher:<\/p>\n<p><strong>Johannes Nordgaard<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The course in Mariehamn attracted people from the whole island.
