Welcome to Qigong15
Welcome to Qigong15 – the home of Qigong Goodness here on the Internet.
Over there on the right hand column you can get your free 21 day online Qigong course, which starts by teaching you the Qigong/Chi Kung exercise – Push Mountain Lift Sky, you’ll get 7 pages of written instructions and 4 videos with over 19 minutes of hands on tuition – delivered to your inbox.
I’ll then continue to send you important guidance, advice and tools that will help you to overcome the 4 major obstacles between you and practicing Qigong successfully for health and vitality – all for free.
Why free? Because I want to share Qigong with everyone who is genuinely interested in learning and practicing it. But don’t worry, I’m not a saint.
During the course I will introduce you to ‘paid for’ tools which will help you to deepen and develop your skills. Don’t worry, I promise there will be no hard sell.
You’ll get plenty of real value from the free course, and you can unsubscribe any time you like.
If you’re a member of the Qigong Secrets 22 Week Home Study Course you can log in over there in the right hand column as well as see a list of the most recent blog posts I’ve made.
My aim is to educate you as to the benefits to be had by practicing Qigong on a daily basis. I know from my own personal experience and that of my students just how powerful Qigong can be and my mission is to share it with as many people as possible.
It amazes me that it is still so little known. Granted it is only in the last 40 years (due to cultural influences) that Qigong has been publicly practiced in its birth place of China. But even so it still remains a mystery to me as to why so few people have heard of it worldwide.
If you want to be able to take responsibility for your health, happiness and well being and if you are prepared to put in the effort required (just 15 minutes a day) then Qigong has much to offer you.
Make yourself at home here, have a good rummage around the site and enjoy your stay. Come back and visit us again soon!

Dear Marcus
I am still awaiting my Shaolin 18 Lohan hands poster which I ordered just over a month ago. I wonder if you have any news?
I hope you have a great Christmas and all the best for 2011,
Jan
Hi Jan,
I’ve issued you a refund. Sorry your poster never arrived. I will put another one in the post for you. I’ve missed the last day for posting for Christmas, but it should be with you shortly.
Kindest regards
Marcus
Hi, I recently came off paroxetine (anti depressant) and was wondering if Qi Gong would benefit my anxiety / social anxiety problem?
I’ve been on and off paroxetine for a few years now. They do work for me but like always there are side effects. Every time I come off them anxiety seems to be there waiting for me. I hear mindfulness meditation can really help, What do you think?
Hi Mike,
I’m going to assume that you came off paroxetine with the support and approval of your doctor?
Qigong and other mindfulness practices can definitely be of value to those who suffer from anxiety.
For a fuller explanation of the how’s and the why’s please read the new stress report
Bye for now

This is not a comment but I couldn’t locate a way to send my entry to the contest for naming the new book written by Marcus. I hope this gets to the right place. My entry is: Help yourself to Qigong! And, ity will help you.
Hi Bob,
You have located a way to suggest your title for my new book. Thanks for your entry =)

Hello,
You mention in one of your posts regarding the best way to learn qiqong is through an experienced or master instructor. Unfortunately, I looked and could not find any instructors close to me and I know it is better to learn from someone directly. Now, I have been in martial arts for over 23 years and I am very familiar with learning to control the body but qiqong I thought best to learn to control and relax the mind. Since there are no instructors nearby, what could you suggest in regards to learning myself?
Thank you for your time!
I have a question that I am having a hard time finding the answer. I hope it isn’t a stupid question. Because of thyroid cancer, I had to have my thyroid removed. The question that I have is, in all of your studies, what does the removal of body parts do to the circulation of qigong energy? In my quest for an answer, here is the little bit that I have learned, but it is contradictory. Acupuncturists say that they can measure the loss of energy around the removal site and in many cases, there is no energy moving at the site at all. An Energy Kinesiologist told me that the body remembers and that it treats the body like the missing part is still there. Have you come across an answer to this question? I’ve asked a lot of professionals, and all I get are blank stares. I want to heal, but I’m having a hard time getting back on track and I need to know what I’m facing. Thank-you.
Bear in mind that I am biased. But I believe a great place for you to start is to access my free 21 day online Qigong course. It will give you a great introduction to Qigong. You can find it here: http://qigong15.com/blog/qigong-training/demo/

Hope that helps Robert.

Hi Marcus i am one of your students i have the book the 18 shaolin lohan hands and i have the 22 week study course i have added you to facebook my name is Frank i hope you dont mind me doing that.
Also i know you have been affliated with the shaolin wahnam institute and i am wondering if you will be teaching any of there methods in books and dvds. i would love to learn more shaolin methods. i am in australia and there sis not many that teach shaolin wahnam qigong and those that do are far away from me and expensive. is there possibililty of future dvds and books on the subject?
Hi Frank,
Lovely to hear from you.
I spent 9 years with the SWI, the last 5 as their Chief Instructor here in the UK. During those 9 years my whole focus was on the teachings of Grandmaster Wong Kiew Kit. So I think it’s pretty safe to say that everything I teach is heavily influenced by what I learned between August 2000 and November 2009! SWI wasn’t just a hobby for me. From the 25th November 2003 (when I was authorised to teach) it was my full time job.
As for what projects I’ll be working on in the future once “Smiling From The Heart‘ is completed I wouldn’t like to say. Though I’m seriously considering putting together a ‘Members Only’ hardcopy Qigong newsletter together. I also want to focus on getting out on the road and doing more face-to-face teaching (which has always been my biggest love).
As I’ve mentioned many times before, but you may not know, I invested over £18,000 in my Shaolin Qigong and Shaolin Kung Fu ‘education’. I travelled 1000′s of miles to go to courses. Why did I do that? Because I love the 3 Treasures of Shaolin (Shaolin Qigong, Shaolin Kung Fu and Chan/Zen) and wanted to absorb as much as I possibly could. There is only so much you can learn from books and DVD’s (even the best books and DVD’s). If you want the very best, sometimes you have to make sacrifices.
Keep a look out for the “Smiling From The Heart ‘Members Only’ Newsletter” =)
Bye for now
Marcus
