We&#8217;ve taught Hold Qi up in the UK for some years but now we wanted to teach Shenxin Qigong as well. We had a good number of participants and they were very enthusiastic both during and after the course and wanted more Shenxin courses in the future.<br \/>Some of the students comments can be found below:<\/p>\n<h3>Improved arms, neck and shoulders<\/h3>\n<p>I found the course extraordinarily well laid out. I&#8217;ve done Tai Qi Quan for three and a half years. I felt that my arms, neck and shoulders had some problems but these symptoms weren&#8217;t there today and I had an enormously relaxed night last night . I think the repetitions were good. I thought the teaching was relaxed and informal I like the way you did business . I have to go back and listen to the cd and imagine you teaching \u2013 because there is a lot of information there. I&#8217;ve had an extraordinarily good weekend \u2013 really good \u2013 positive.<\/p>\n<h3>Alert in spite of very little sleep<\/h3>\n<p>I&#8217;ve had a brilliant weekend. As I&#8217;ve mentioned to people, I have managed on so little sleep. I think I had a lot of Qi already on Friday and we were very late back from the airport. I managed yesterday on an hour of sleep and I was still functioning by the time I went to bed last night \u2013 so that says something about what Qi can do. I can feel things loosening up in my shoulders and my back. I&#8217;m really glad to get back to this \u2013 I&#8217;ve practised before and then stopped practising Shenxin because I&#8217;ve been doing other things (Xin Shen Zhuang) and I&#8217;m really pleased to have found it again. I will partner it up with XSZ ( which is what I was told to do in the first place!) Thank you!<\/p>\n<h3>Very nice feeling of Qi<\/h3>\n<p>It&#8217;s been a fabulous weekend. I have felt a different way of feeling \u2013 the energy- with this practice, quite a lot of difference. I&#8217;ve loved it \u2013 it&#8217;s been so clear and so easy to follow. I&#8217;ve felt really energised, I&#8217;ve got a project to work with and I&#8217;m really enthusiastic about continuing and I&#8217;d love to come out for the winter course. Yes it&#8217;s been a lovely weekend \u2013 thank everyone else too \u2013 it&#8217;s been a lovely group &#8211; a lovely Qi Field.<br \/>Now, after the course I get a different feeling. I think I hadn&#8217;t really clicked before somehow &#8211; I knew about the effect of the qi field &#8211; have experienced it in different ways, but when I got home and started up on my own this time, I only had to picture us all together and then imagine the wider group to get a great feeling of qi. Aren&#8217;t we lucky!<\/p>\n<h3>Better arms and improved circulation<\/h3>\n<p>I&#8217;m really glad I came \u2013 I really like all the instructions \u2013 they are so clear \u2013 so detailed. But I had to concentrate so much that I haven&#8217;t been able to relax \u2013 so I can&#8217;t wait to go home and practice and relax more. I try to work on my arms and I didn&#8217;t lose the feelings in my arms this morning. That&#8217;s a good start so I want to carry on.<br \/>After the course when I&#8217;m working in my rather chilly workshop, I&#8217;m not feeling anywhere near as cold as I used to. Makes it easier to do the very fine work that is involved in making and mending violins.<\/p>\n<h3>Energetic and getting improvements<\/h3>\n<p>I&#8217;ve really enjoyed the weekend very much. I think it&#8217;s going to be incredibly useful for me as I&#8217;ve recently had health problems and I don&#8217;t think I&#8217;ve been so energetic over a weekend for a very long time, especially on so little sleep. Things have happened in my head and back \u2013 so there are obviously ways that I can work on myself with this form. I&#8217;m very glad to know about it \u2013 Thank you. I very much hope to get to the summer course.<\/p>\n<h3>Disappearing pains<\/h3>\n<p>Thank you so much \u2013 I&#8217;ve really enjoyed the weekend. Having done Hold Qi Up for quite a long while its really interesting to do another form and its quite different \u2013 the feeling is quite different. I have problems with my back and shoulder and recently I hurt myself. It&#8217;s been very interesting \u2013 it&#8217;s not ideal coming with a problem but it&#8217;s interesting \u2013 I&#8217;ve had pains shooting round my body and then they&#8217;ve gone away and I feel very much better. I&#8217;m very much looking forward to getting better at the exercises and then returning again to get deeper in to it. So \u2013 I&#8217;ve enjoyed it very much \u2013 thank you.<\/p>\n<h3>My energy has been brilliant<\/h3>\n<p>This is the first time I&#8217;ve tried Qigong and I think it&#8217;s absolutely brilliant. It&#8217;s made me aware that I&#8217;ve been standing wrong for my entire life. My posture is wrong. That&#8217;s good to know and I can see great benefits from doing this. My energy has been brilliant this weekend and it&#8217;s been just the right amount of physical effort! Just the right amount without being too much! The teaching style has been brilliant \u2013 not overly serious and a good sense of humor. Thank you.<\/p>\n<h3>Looking forward to practising<\/h3>\n<p>Thank you very much it&#8217;s been really wonderful\u2013 I really loved the teaching \u2013 it made the techniques very clear and funny as well. I think it&#8217;s really helped me to improve my posture for Hold Qi Up as well as this because it made me realize a lot of things I was probably doing wrong in Hold Qi Up. That will benefit me as well, so I&#8217;m really pleased. I&#8217;ve become more aware of how important it is to be very particular about each position and I do feel the difference when you get it right \u2013 it does feel more fluid when you do all the movements in time and that&#8217;s really beneficial. I&#8217;m looking forward to it helping me with sleeping better and getting rid of anxiety. I really believe that Qi Gong can make you come to your highest potential. I&#8217;ve seen a change in Mum over the last 7 -8 years and it&#8217;s been amazing. I&#8217;m really glad to have found it at such a young age. So &#8211; yes \u2013 thank you very much!<\/p>\n<p>Teacher:<br \/><strong>Herbj\u00f6rn Wilhelmsen<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The very first Shenxin Qigong course in the UK was very well received.
