I think Qigong and other mindfulness practices is way better that medications for anxiety and stress because Qigong helps you release all that negative energy(emotions) while medication supresses them and as a result they became more and more stonger and that further disrupts connection between mind and body because there's an anxiety in your body and you numb yourself to not feel it
Ya seems like its typically a band aid solution for sure
@@TheNickLoffree are you familiar with CBT(cognitive behavioural therapy)? It's another great tool for anxiety and stress because it helps you change your thought which changes your emotions. Better than meds
Fascinating to think about the connection between practice, digestion and anxiety.
Thank you Nick for sharing, Qi Gong is so powerful in healing the symptoms of unresolved trauma!
Good advice. Lots to think about. My choice would be to do qigong most of the time ! I vary the times when I do it and it seems to work for me. What I especially like is the way gigong helps even out my energy levels. And, so far, I have always felt better after doing qigong. I hope you're enjoying the hot spring.
Congratulations man for what you've been through and for where you are now.
Coincidentally, I woke up just before sunrise yesterday so I decided to do my practice & I felt so energized! So much more so than normal, I wanted to watch this video to see your presentation on the subject. Thanks Nick.
Thanks so much. Just what I needed to hear now 😅🎉❤
Thanks very much Nick. I'll look into it. Much appreciated.
Wow I really appreciate your honesty Nick, your videos have been really helping me with my anxiety.. I have suffered with severe anxiety and ocd for years and like you I cannot have the medications as it gives me all the side effects so I've had to go back to basics and learning how to self heal, this has been one of the steps on my journey. Many thanks 🙏
Thank you for sharing your personal story.😊
Thanks Nick!!! Love this info you provide on a continual basis!!! Blessings!
Super helpful information for everyone in every circumstance. The aspects you mentioned such as differences between TCM diet practices and modern trends such as intermittent fasting would be interesting for many people, as well as the TCM clock. Thank you for all you do to get Qigong out into the world Nick!
Congrats on your pregnancy and success on your healing journey! Just found your page and am super grateful for the liver chi gong video and how you explain meridians! Really enjoy the pace and your calming voice. Will be watching more, thank you! 🙏
Very useful. In the past few days I have seen very clearly that I have to try and do QiGong every day. If I don’t then subtle stresses build up and throw me off kilter. Thank you for showing me this beautiful way of living Nick💚
Great info as always, AND I LOVE your jacket soo much
Wonderful explanation! Thank you so much 🙏
Very good and practical advice! I love that you say, “Make qigong work for you!”
So much valuable info in this video! Thank you Nick, I’ve been asking myself this for a lot, now it’s all absolutely clear. ❤❤❤❤
Very helpful, thank you!
I was thinking about this the other day & then you made this video! 🌈🙏
Thanks Nick. This was very helpful information. Managed to grab a couple of videos in Costa Rica tonight and this video was a perfect bonus.
Thank you! Good advice!
Great information.Thanks
It's so beautiful there! I can't believe you healed yourself from your mental illness using these tools. That is so amazing and wonderful that you kept searching for answers. So exciting you are expecting a new baby!
Spectacular lifestyle you have there ! ❤thanks for the videos !
I truly appreciate you and the qigong videos you produce. I love how you cover many perspectives, the ancient, the modern and the scientific. So educational and I've learned so much while while strengthening my physical and energy body. Thank you, thank you, thank you!! You are appreciated!❤
Congratulations on your mental health recovery.
Chi gung is an all-around healing art.
I love it, it's always fresh
It loves a blank canvas.
Keep up the innovative sharing
Good msn
Congratulations, man! Happy for you. And encouraging for me, - a Prof. claims Biu Yun might give psychosis in labile ones. I feklt well from it but heeded her and stoppped, also because of many new stressors hindering. I'd guess early morning and evening. Did you do other changes too? Changed diet, mindset, focus? habits? Did you have relative peace and sense of safety + security? -I'd be very happy + grateful if you would kindly answer.
Thanks. I love QIgong and my favorite time is doing flow movement(s) before bed extra slow motion and breathing so slowly.
Awesome! Thank you 💓👏
Nick, thanks so much for your helpful and clear videos, I really enjoy them. Big congrats to you and your wife for being pregnant👼 Whar a lucky baby growing up with healthy and conscious parents! All the very best for the birth. 😁
Good advice . Great !
Thank you
Im so happy I found your channel ❤ I was looking for good qi gong online guidance for years, literally. And I finally found it.
Thanks to the gastritis episode that made me search for digestion qi gong videos 😅
Wow, its an honor 😄 Thanks for tagging along!
Nick, thanks for your great content and insights! I have also heard that you shouldn’t practice at windy weather- what are your thoughts on this “rule” cause I live in a pretty windy region… thanks, Markus
Great video, but this 17:37 moment "schedule or something or you're self-employed"... (oh, wait, it's actually me, ends in godlike mmuuhahaha😝🤣🤣)I understand this feeling so deep. 😄Epic😆 So iconic that it got potential to become meme. You would make a great actor.
Not sure which time will work for me since I work nightshift 🤔 will have to experiment
Nick, big thank you for this very useful video, much appreciated. I've a friend who has schizophrenia and is being hospitalized at the moment because she stopped taking her medicine. Could you advice me please as to what I could do to help her? She goes through the same pattern for the last few years and it is rather sad to see her like that.
Unfortunately this is one of the most common problems with schizophrenia. I think mostly because the meds have so many side effects. Might be worth looking into alternative therapies like cyproheptadine (check out Haidut’s work on this)
In which direction should one face while doing. How long after meals can one do these? Tks
I think i cover meals in the video. As long as food has digested you are good to go. For directions, I would consult a feng shui book if that is of interest to you. I don’t think too hard about that aspect.
Is NAC something you can benefit from?
Haven’t looked into it too much tbh. I hear good things though.
Where are you? It‘s look so beautyful. Greats from 🇩🇪
Remember that 80s movie 'dream a little dream' where they find the old dude doing naked Qigong in the middle of the night? Totally makes sense now, lol.
Medications leave me so sick to my stomach. I have taken a more holistic approach. Meditation, qui gong and yoga every day has been my medication.
