🌿 Do You Feel Like This?
☑️ You didn’t do much today, but still feel tired
☑️ Your neck, back, hips, or knees feel stiff and achy
☑️ Your digestion is off — bloated, heavy, or sluggish
☑️ You wake up at 3am, or spend the day in a mental fog
☑️ Your emotions are on a roller coaster — calm one day, irritable the next
☑️ Hot flashes, joint pain, or anxiety seem to come out of nowhere
💬 And sometimes, you wonder…
“Is this just what getting older feels like?”
🪷 What if it’s not just age — but how your energy flows inside?
In Traditional Chinese Medicine, we call this Qi.
When Qi is blocked, you feel heavy, tired, and off.
When Qi flows… your body starts to heal itself.
🌿 What Is Vital Qi?
Vital Qi is a gentle self-healing method
that helps restore your body’s natural energy and balance.
It blends soft movement, breath, energy awareness, and emotional calm—
so you can feel better, from the inside out.
It’s not a workout.
It’s not a treatment.
It’s a daily ritual that helps you:
-
Release tension and stiffness
-
Improve sleep and digestion
-
Feel more centered, lighter, and alive
Whether you're 45, 65, or beyond, Vital Qi meets you exactly where you are.
Vital Qi is inspired by Traditional Chinese Medicine,
where “Qi” means the life force that flows through your body.
When Qi flows freely, your body feels open, relaxed, and full of life.
When Qi is blocked, you feel tired, tight, or off balance.
This method gently helps your Qi flow again — so your body can begin to heal.
Why Vital Qi Works
Vital Qi is gentle — but don’t let that fool you.
It’s designed to work with your body’s natural systems of healing and regulation.
You’ll breathe, move, and awaken your energy in ways that:
Calm your nervous system
Breathing through your nose and exhaling through your mouth, helps shift your body out of “stress mode” and into deep rest.
🔗Stimulate your fascia and energy lines
Gentle stretching and tapping along specific areas releases tension, boosts circulation, and opens flow.
Reconnect body and mind
When your breath, movement, and awareness move together, your body begins to feel safe again — and healing begins.
Support your hormones and digestion
Soft belly breathing and rhythmic steps help regulate your gut, your mood, and your energy levels.
The Four Core Practices of Vital Qi
Which one speaks to your body today? You don’t have to do all four — just start with the one that calls to you.
Calm your nervous system
Awaken your body through breath and gentle rhythm.
If you feel low on energy, stiff in the joints, or tired even after rest — this walking method can help.
Combining mindful breathing with soft steps, it’s designed to stimulate full-body circulation, improve digestion, and naturally restore your vitality.
Take a breath. Take a step.
Let your energy flow again.
💬 A story from a Vital Qi walker
I lost over 20 pounds — from 125 to 102 — and even dropped a clothing size. Thanks to the pandemic, I had the chance to try Vital Qi Walking. Over the past few years, my body has gotten so much better. I have more energy, better focus, and feel like a brand new version of myself. - Better & Better, 40+
🌸 Gentle Qi Stretching
Open the body, soften the tension, return to balance.
For women dealing with tight hips, a stiff back, or postural imbalances, this practice gently unwinds the body.
These soft, fascia-focused movements awaken energy flow, improve alignment, and bring a deep sense of inner calm.
👩🦳You don’t need to force change — you just need to create space for it.
👉 What real students are saying
My neck and back used be so stiff — but now I move freely and pain-free. I’m a teacher, and I used to feel sore in my lower back and shoulders every day after class. After thyroid surgery, my neck could no longer rotate left or right without pain. Through Vital Qi Stretching, I learned how to realign my body gently. My back pain is gone, my left shoulder and knee have healed, and I can move my neck freely again. I’ll keep using the self-healing tools Mae shared — they truly work. - Ms. Cheng, 56
Qi Tapping Therapy
Clear blockages. Relieve pain. Feel lighter.
When your energy feels stuck — in your shoulders, lower back, hips, legs, or even your mood — Qi Tapping gently stimulates the body’s natural healing lines.
With rhythmic patterns and expert guidance, this method helps release tension, reduce pain, and reawaken flow where it’s been blocked.
Sometimes, healing begins with just a gentle tap.
👉 Shared by Our Students：
My husband’s chronic back pain is gone — just from gentle tapping. My husband used to have back pain for years and always bought pain patches. But ever since I started tapping for him, his pain never came back. - Qin, 60+
Rest & Revitalization Sleep Meditation
Find deep rest. Heal from within.
If you struggle to fall asleep, wake up at 3am, or carry stress into bed — this method is for you.
Rooted in yoga nidra and energy healing, this guided meditation helps quiet the mind, balance your nervous system, and improve digestion, sleep, and emotional clarity.
When you rest with awareness, your body remembers how to heal.
💬How Vital Qi Changed Their Lives
I no longer need sleeping pills. now I sleep too well! I used to rely on Alprazolam to sleep. Even then, I’d wake up 2–3 times during the night and still feel exhausted in the morning. Ever since I started meditation class, my sleep has been amazing — whether I go to bed early or late, I fall asleep easily. My mood has also improved a lot. I love the 40-minute meditation sessions — they’ve helped me so much. Now I don’t need sleeping pills anymore! I used to struggle to fall asleep… now I sleep too well! - Ms. Gao, 52

The Power of Qi:
How Your Energy Supports Healing
More than “energy” —
it’s how your body stays warm, strong, and in balance.
In Traditional Chinese Medicine, “Qi” is more than just energy.
It’s the invisible force that keeps your body alive, warm, and well.
When your Qi flows freely:
-
🌀 Your energy moves — helping you walk, breathe, and digest with ease.
-
🔥 Your body stays warm — supporting your metabolism and circulation.
-
🛡️ Your defenses stay strong — so you’re less likely to get sick.
-
🧷 Your functions stay stable — like your hormones, sleep, and digestion.
-
✨ Your body transforms and heals — turning food into energy and stress into calm.
When your Qi is stuck or weak, you may feel tired, cold, bloated, stiff, achy, anxious — or just… off.
That’s why Vital Qi practices are all designed to restore the natural flow of Qi —
gently, through breath, movement, and awareness.
