Swimming Dragon

This Qigong movement is all about Yin and Yang. With your arm out and palm up, you are absorbing Yang energy from the Heavens. With your arm in and palm down, you are absorbing Yin energy from the Earth. Make sure you are turning at your waist, and moving your shoulders only when your waist cannot turn comfortably any further. Pay special attention to the process of your hands changing places…Yin turns to Yang and Yang turns to Yin, which is the essence of Qigong, mixing and balancing the Yin and Yang energy. Natural breathing (adominal breathing) through this exercise. RELAX your shoulders, this is a must. When beginning, consciously drop your shoulders a few times during this movement. You will be surprised at how automatically your shoulders will rise up a little, you must consciously work on this. Make sure your posture is good and clear your mind.
