Explore qigong for fibromyalgia to boost energy, ease pain, and improve mobility, using folding over (yin and yang meridians), painting rainbows (gallbladder and liver), and turning to gaze at moon.
Master the basics of qigong, including qi, gong, bubbling spring (kidney one), sinking, and rooting, then adopt the Wuji stance, relaxed kua, and abdominal breathing to guide the qi.
Learn to guide the Qi with active Qigong tools—posture, deliberate tensions, hand postures, relaxed breathing, peripheral vision, and visualization—to quiet the body and mind and regain health.
Practice abdominal breathing to replace chest breathing, using the diaphragm and lower abdomen for fuller lung capacity. This qigong technique lowers respiration rate, reduces anxiety, and enhances energy and well-being.
Practice Wuji stance to build structure and stability, quiet the body and mind, and listen for qi while maintaining a stable, grounded posture.
Transfer your weight to one side, root down, and sink qi as the body turns at kua, closing the gate and folding the kua with shoulders aligned to the hips.
Learn folding over, the first qigong exercise for fibromyalgia, guiding qi along Yin and Yang meridians in the legs with controlled breathing and a safe Wuji stance.
Practice folding over qigong movements with follow me guidance to ease fibromyalgia symptoms and cultivate mindful, gentle body awareness.
Paint rainbows from the Taiji Shibashi qigong sequence to engage the gall bladder and liver meridians. Learn two component arm movements with weight sinking, kua folding, and breath to center.
Follow me through a rainbow-inspired qigong session for fibromyalgia, using the painting rainbows motif to guide movement.
Practice turning to gaze at the moon in wuji stance to cultivate qi for fibromyalgia, focusing on heart governor 8 with a soft doe-eyed gaze and coordinated breath and posture.
Explore a follow me qigong sequence called turning to gaze at the moon for fibromyalgia relief and mindful body awareness.
Discover true qigong and Taiji through a veteran teacher's journey from skepticism to mastery, highlighting qi and subtle movements, the distinction between genuine and faux qigong, and one-to-one guidance.
Embrace daily qigong practice to ease fibromyalgia symptoms, start with ten minutes each morning, and gain powerful tools for regaining health and well-being.
Explore true qigong with bonus online lessons that deepen practice beyond on-demand courses, featuring sets like The Embroidered Brocade and The Five Taoist Yin, plus posture and listening exercises.

"Des explains the underlying processes and principles of Qigong in a way that is easy to understand and acceptable. I hope to be able to use what he has passed on in the course in order to help others who come to me to learn."
Des Lawton is a Shiatsu Practitioner, Qigong Practitioner and Qigong Instructor who has been teaching Taiji and Qigong since the late 1980’s. This course is the first in a series of Qigong for specific, chronic, ailments that he is producing. The first thing I want to point out is that the price does not reflect the quality of this course. The price has been deliberately kept low (with Udemy discounts and Pro-Holistic discounts) so that Fibromyalgia sufferers have easy, inexpensive, access to these exercises. The course and the exercises are superb.
Des empowers some of his Shiatsu clients, those with chronic conditions, by teaching them the Qigong exercises that are most suited to their needs. This includes Fibromyalgia. In doing so his aim is to get the person well in as short a time as possible and for that level of wellness to be maintained. This is not good business strategy as it means that his patients need to see him much less frequently and, in some cases, their ailment is reduced to the extent that they cease to be patients and become clients who have Shiatsu for relaxation. His aim has always been to make a difference.......... not a fortune.
Qigong does not produce quick fixes but, through time and practice, it has a cumulative effect on health and wellbeing. How long it takes is dependent on many factors, the biggest two being frequency and quality of practice.
If you follow Des’s guidelines in this course I feel sure that you will notice a difference......... but try to be patient with yourself and give the Qigong (and yourself) a chance.
“Des Lawton is clearly at the cutting edge of Energy work today, and his sensitivity, humour, and instructional abilities integrate beautifully. This has enabled him to teach at all levels, bringing oriental thoughts & concepts to occidental minds, making these concepts tangible, and demystifying them.”
“Des Lawton demonstrates teaching-integrity and respect for his students, and knows how to facilitate student understanding, awareness and true progress, encouraging the students’ desire to learn. I’ve taken other courses from people who may know how to go through the outer movements with good form themselves and have impressive “temple” credentials and an exotic nationality, but they lack the ability to impart knowledge which is the essential attribute of a teacher and also calls into question their own depth of understanding.”
