Zhineng Qigong
Developed by Grandmaster Dr Pang Ming, these immersive healing methods form an open style practice to regulate Qi (life force energy) in the body. This action of regulating the Qi has been proven to restore one’s health, improve the functioning abilities of the body and eliminate illnesses and diseases. It uses both body and mind to enhance health, and heal illness. The practice is done in a meditative state of deep relaxation, using visualization with physical movement.

The “Lift Qi Up and Pour Qi Down“ method (Peng Qi Guan Ding Fa) is the first level of Zhineng Qigong. This method is perfect for healing illnesses and improving health. The main characteristics of this method include integrating the mind and Qi, and also collecting and gathering Qi. The movements are easy to learn and are quite effective in inducing Qi, so much so that you can feel the effects in your body! But How do we induce Qi?
Along with physical movements, the Lift Qi Up method makes use of visualizations in order feel oneself more deeply integrated in the universe. In this way practitioners also integrate with Qi. Thinking “where the mind goes, the Qi follows the flow” and understanding that everything consists of Qi. When stretching the hands out on both sides, the mind imagines that the hands are stretched far across & reaching the horizon. When gathering Qi, the body is bent and the hands are on the meridians of the feet, one imagines inducing the Qi from mother earth; feeling rooted, energized, and supported by nature. These visualizations serve a higher purpose to better gather and absorb the Hunyuan Qi of nature. Practitioners gather Qi into the navel, the lower dantian, where they strengthen their mental and physical health and at the same time, reduce illnesses.
This method is a standing posture in Zhineng Qigong used to go from the external Hunyuan stage where the mind is used to the internal Hunyuan stage. In the external Hunyuan stage the mind’s Qi comes out to integrate with the universe to form one unity. On the other hand, the internal stage is used to induce qi where the mind and body are integrated and the mind is kept inside.
While in this method, students are aiming to merge the three centers of the body and mind (the center of Baihui, the center of the palms and the center of the soles). They merge these Qi points on the body to the center of the mind which is located in the lower dantian at the first level of practice. This method is also good for opening the lower back.
Fun Fact: This method is a foundation practice of Martial Arts
In this method, practitioners are taught to “close the seven orifices of the head”. But What does this mean? The seven orifices of the head are the ears, eyes and mouth. In this method the senses: vision, hearing and smell are withdrawn into the center of the head, the Shenji palace. The Three Centres Merge method allows students to bring the senses inward where they can observe Shenji Palace, the home of the mind and the true self.
This method is known for quickly mobilizing Qi and effectively improving the body’s health. The body may sway and vibrate gently. The body may feel warm. An expanding and absorbing force appears in between the hands where one can feel resistance while making opening and closing motions. This method is particularly good at opening the waist, pelvis and tailbone
Information from ‘Basic theories and methods of Zhineng Qigong’
The Three Centres Merge Standing Form method is a good way to relax and open the lower back, but so is the Wall squat method! Rolling the spine method is a variation of this method which is easier to do and does not require a deep squat. It is said that innate Qi exists inside the lower back and this qi supports and nourishes the whole body. This Qi comes from both parents at the time of conception, as well as from the mother during her pregnancy. After birth more Qi is acquired, but how to we access this pocket of Qi?
This Wall Squat method was kept secret by traditional masters for centuries, and it is a secret way to relax and open the lower back. Once the lower back is opened, the qi inside the lower back is accessible; Qi and blood of the entire body flows freely. Opening and relaxing the lower back is important for Qi to flow well within the body, this can be achieved by doing Qigong. Because the lower back is the main support for one’s body weight, methods directed at strengthening this area are particularly beneficial.
By restoring the balance of Qi within the body this method provides many health benefits along with strengthening the body immensely. Wherever Qi is blocked in the body, students can use this method to adjust and resolve those Qi blockages. Here are the effects of this practice:
This method gives the upper back a massage, improving the function of Zang internal organs in the upper body, the lungs and heart, by directly targeting their acupressure points and increasing sensitivity in the hands. Practicing this Chen Qi method frequently opens up the meridians, which mobilizes internal Qi (unifying Qi in the entire body) and releases any existing Qi blockages. By focusing on the flow of Qi down to the fingertips, it also increases the ability and sensitivity to feel Qi. Within practicing this method students focus their thoughts and cultivate Qi in the lower dantian, the Qi center in the body that supports the physical body.
The Chen Qi Method developed by Dr Pang Ming was used extensively at the Hua Xia Centre. It is an adjustable practice method easy enough for beginners, but can be made more intense for experienced practitioners. This method deeply strengthens the mind while profoundly benefitting the heart and lungs, and strengthening the immune system. In the videos below, Dr Pang Ming demonstrates the Chen Qi method and provides invaluable insight on this method. One video, the Dos and Don’ts of Chen Qi, Dr Pang Ming offers tips to students on what they should and should not do. Want to learn more about Dr Pang Ming?Â

Dr Pang Ming Zhineng Qigong – The Do’s and Don’ts of Chen Qi
Dr. Pang used the Chen Qi method to resolve all kinds of chronic illnesses including conditions of the heart, lungs and immune system. This method teaches you how to mobilize internal Hunyuan Qi and strengthen external Hunyuan Qi to improve overall health. You will learn how to open the meridians in the hands and also improve your ability to mobilize internal Hunyuan Qi. While this method is great for improving physical illnesses, many practitioners describe it as a powerful way to strengthen the mind. As the practice of inside and outside, practitioners focus their feelings of discomfort and transform it , often with a smile, with visualization, determination and the conscious redirection of the mind. These teachings and thought processes can be used in daily life to face challenges of the mind.

-Basic theories and methods of Zhineng Qigong
This La Qi is a fundamental method in Zhineng Qigong, and more so it can be described at the method of the universe. It deeply relates to the motion law of Zhineng Qigong which relays the movement of the universe and everything inside it. La Qi is the practice of opening and closing. It is almost hidden in most other methods. We find it in the Lift Qi Up Method, in the Chen Qi method and even in more simple practices of Qigong. With these movements we follow the rules of nature as everything is opening and closing, expanding and contracting, moving in and moving out, and most beautifully transforming. But how, and what does La Qi transform?Â

The Body and Mind method is the second level of Zhineng Qigong and it entails developing internal Hunyuan Qi. This internal Hunyuan Qi, found within the body can be developed and work to open the entire body structure. It penetrates deeply inside all layers of the body: the skin, muscles, tendons, meridians and bones. This results in an integration of the whole structure.
Internal Hunyuan is when the mind merges with the Hunyuan Qi found inside of the body and it requires the mind to be fully concentrated within. Similarly to how cultivating external Hunyuan Qi serves the body by allowing the body to absorb the outside Hunyuan Qi better, cultivating Internal Qi functions the same with the same purpose to serve the body. The difference is that Internal Hunyuan Qi is used to penetrate deeper into the body and it improves the ability of the mind to direct and control Qi. After cultivating External Hunyuan Qi, making Qi within the body abundant, Internal Hunyuan methods are used to unify Qi found in different parts of the body: skin, tissues, muscles, tendons, blood vessels, bones, inner organs etc. It can bring qi directly to different parts of the body.

Mental Health is a major topic, not just in the world of Qigong. While you may be interested in knowing that Zhineng Qigong treats mental illness like any other illness, explore these perspectives from accredited Masters and teachers.
The topic of enlightenment is one of great importance. When Master Wei was asked about it, he said it is achievable. One can prepare for it by having clear intentions and discarding attachments.
In Ancient times, super abilities were far more common compared to today! In Zhineng Qigong the true self naturally experiences paranormal abilities. These abilities (such as supernormal sending, receiving, thinking and, human body phenomena) are inherent functions of the human body. When the consciousness is pure and fully concentrated these abilities become more active.
Dr Pang is a significant figure in the history of Qigong. He created Zhineng Qigong after devoting decades to training in various Qigong forms as well as Martial Arts, Traditional Chinese medicine and Western Medicine. In 1988, he founded the Hua’Xia Zhineng Qigong Training Center in China, which quickly became popular for its miraculous approach to healing.
A Qi field contains the holistic structure and information of everything within it. Setting up a Qi field is a fundamental aspect of Zhineng Qigong and Qi healing. It can be done for various purposes including making mundane day to day tasks more exciting and rewarding. Dr Pang Ming revolutionized the idea of the Qi field in several ways.
A reference framework is defined as the perceptions, beliefs, behaviours and experiences that shape our world. It impacts our view of ourselves and our life. Breaking the reference framework involves ridding oneself from all these limitations in order to shift to a new entirety state.
The starting posture regulates the entire body. This position of the body allows for better circulation of the blood, allowing Qi (life force energy) to flow easily. It is essential to any method you do in Zhineng Qigong. It is the starting point to any method you do in Zhineng Qigong!
The Eight Verses of life meditation was created by Grandmaster Dr Pang Ming. Its purpose is to set up a Qi field and it serves as an important tool to adjust the mind. When reciting the eight phrases, we go into a deep practice state by connecting with the universe. Each verse allows us to merge with the natural world, and embrace a state of entirety with it. Practitioners use this mediation before each practice.
