LUNG HEALTH
What can I do to strengthen my lungs? Elemental Qigong - and it's easier than you may think!

Qigong helps to encourage Qi to circulate in the blood, without taxing the lungs.

Listen to two qigong teachers, author Mimi Kuo-Deemer and your host Clara Apollo sharing their experiences of how the Metal element helps access deeper lung health, including; 

* Qigong breathwork - observing, inviting breath to deepen and steady the pace

* Elasticity of lung tissue - smooth, silken-like, the ease of the breath

* Running & swimming increases the heart rate which can over tax the heart & stimulate the sympathetic nervous system

* Qi-moves unblock and promote optimal qi-flow which does not tax the  lungs, rather nurtures them

* Lengthen & relax approach stimulates qi-flow, called 'pandiculation'

* Circular and spiral type movements encourage the qi to move through the blood

* Challenge of qigong is to become more fluid-like, embodying the strength of water

* Lung tissue is fine and delicate, it's alveoli edges are like leaves 

* Asthma, covid lung tissue easily damaged leads to stroppy and hardening of tissue 

* Qigong reminds lungs of their true nature to receive and release air calmly

* Long, slow, even, deep, refined breaths stimulate the parasympathetic
nervous system

And so much more as we unpack the mysterious Metal Element and what this could mean for you to recognise your treasure within.

A simple breath awareness suggestion is made for you to try.

Sound and Qigong!

What a wonderful combination for shaking off tension, stress and old patterns, to create space for the higher vibrations of your essence to land and become you more. This combination is central to my personal practice so it is wonderful to share this passion with dear Tallulah Rendall on this weeks edition of Chi Time.

Tallulah is a singer/songwriter, sound therapist, Qigong teacher and activist who is dedicated to empowering people through Qigong & sound meditation to connect to their creative expression and lead happier, healthier and more embodied lives.  

This conversation reveals what she went through to find qigong and how it assists her creative process including her production of albums in unconventional ways, inviting whomever is drawn into their liminal space as a being of pure potential. 

Ecstatic dance features and we play a stunning track 'Radiate' which is a fantastic example of her sound and Qi combining:
"We radiate love" could be expressed as we radiate Qi, because we emit the frequency we experience.

We each have our unique sound, a healing vibe we can produce that is more than just singing, it's the resonance with your being, the instrument of your voice, body and Qi where personal magic can occur. 

Towards the end, I ask:
"Are mantra's like cover versions?" as a natty lead into Tallulah's sublime Heart Sutra magic, which, incidentally, you can get for free from her website.  https://www.tallulahrendall.com
