We had an enjoyable course in <\/span>Norwich<\/span> in October. The newcomers were very quick learners and the repeaters were a great help to them, when working in pairs. As always we were at <\/span>Lionwood<\/span>School<\/span>. The staff there makes us very welcome and it is a really delightful venue.<\/span><\/p>\n

Here are some comments from course participants:<\/span><\/p>\n

The philosophy is right for me<\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s been nice and a privilege to be here, a nice group. The philosophy is right up my street. I am reticent about what I will be able to do but I intend to have a go.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cLike another person said before me, the philosophy is just my sort of thing. It has been good to be here and to have a whole weekend to learn it.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Helps me to sleep<\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s been good to be here and lovely to meet everyone. I practise at home but I also visualise myself doing Hold qi up when I am in bed, which helps me to go to sleep.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Relaxation clears my mind<\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n

\u201cI have enjoyed the company. It is not too energetic and the slow pace suits me. I think it will ensure that I put relaxation into my life. It clears my mind.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Reset my balance<\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n

\u201cIt was more challenging than I expected but I have enjoyed it. It is a supportive environment. I have changed pace over the weekend; it feels like I have reset my balance.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Keep calm and relax a new experience<\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n

\u201cI enjoyed the weekend but have been much challenged. When I hear \u2018keep calm, relax\u2019 it is new, I have never heard that. I have always heard, \u2018come on, get a move on, do this, do that\u2019. It has always been said and now I say it to myself. It has been quite an emotional experience. During practise I have had some tremors in my left hand- it is a nice feeling!\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Supportive environment<\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n

\u201cThis connects up with other things that I have done so it feels familiar. This is a very supportive environment.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Qigong brought peace of mind<\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n

\u201cQigong has brought me peace of mind- I never have had it before. It came after one month of practise- it changed my nervous system. When I returned to teaching after a break, and had learned qigong and practised for a month in that time, I could really see how much calmer I was. This is my health insurance. It has been lovely to meet everyone. Thank you very much.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Qigong is my friend<\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n

\u201cQigong is my old friend who looks after me. I put on the cd and I hear \u2018relax-relax the brain\u2019 \u2013 I think, \u2018ok I know I am trying!\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n
