I slept only 4 hours the night between Friday and Saturday, because my stomach was in turmoil. During Saturday the abdominal pain disappeared, and in the evening, although I was completely exhausted, I also felt very cheerful and happy. Now on Sunday, I feel refreshed and my stomach is fine. I think taking this course was the very best thing I could do.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><h3>Back problems<\/h3>\n<p> &#8220;The course was recommended to me because I have back problems and get pain from standing. I liked the information we received in the lecture before the course. The course was a very positive experience. On Saturday evening I was tired but very happy, and I did not feel any special pain as I had expected.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I&#8217;ve practised a few years now and previously had very big problems with pain in my back and joints. For example, I used to find it difficult to move around and to walk. Soon I noticed that things were starting to happen in my body, and therefore I continued to practise and repeat courses. There&#8217;s a huge difference in my health now as compared to before. I highly recommend repeating courses. The atmosphere during this course has been great, with nice people and in a pleasant environment.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><h3>Broken wrist<\/h3>\n<p> I broke my wrist in December. I feel it got better this weekend. For example, the swelling has gone down considerably.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><h3>Wanted to do something good<\/h3>\n<p> &#8220;I wanted to do something good for myself this year. On Saturday night I was tired but very happy. I will continue to practise.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I have thought a long time about qigong because of the pain that I had for many years, and to get peace of mind. Now after the course I feel softer in my shoulders and neck.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><h3>Stress and allergies<\/h3>\n<p> &#8220;I have asthma and have been practising off and on for several years. I find that qigong helps me a lot, especially in reducing stress. If I practise daily, I notice a real difference in how I feel. My body has also become much more supple. Previously, I had pain in my shoulders, but I no longer need massage. Skin tests have also verified that I got rid of allergies to animal fur and molds. I think this has been a really nice weekend.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><h3>Depression<\/h3>\n<p> &#8220;I have practised for many years, more or less frequently. In the past I have occasionally been very depressed and taken antidepressants, which I could stop doing several years ago. The prognosis of my doctors, however, was that I would have to take antidepressants for life, but it&#8217;s great to get rid of this.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Teacher:<\/p>\n<p><strong>Lars Sigebo<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The first basic course in \u00c4lmhult was held in Brog\u00e5rd, the community center in the picturesque village of Pj\u00e4tteryd just outside \u00c4lmhult.
