Here is a simple chair yoga practice for people of all ages that combines a little bit of light qigong with yoga. This is great to do if you need a break at work.
The video is 30 minutes long and the practice begins about 8 minutes in.
I start off with an explanation of the difference between yoga and qigong…although this explanation is overly simplified. In short, yoga centers around postures (asanas) while qigong “exercise” uses flowing movements. (Note: Kundalini Yoga sometimes uses repetitive movements instead of asanas.)
I also discuss some common beginner concerns about how to breathe properly in yoga and qigong.
P.S. Once again, apologies, I can’t seem to get my video the way I want it. This time I recorded on two phones and one had terrible audio and the one had not-so-great video. I used some video editing software to fix the bad lighting.
