Radiant Lotus Women’s Qi-gong
Radiant Lotus Women’s Qi-gong (RLWQ) is a self-healing internal art program specifically designed to empower women to practice self-health care. The program consists of a series of movement techniques and breath exercises that have the capacity to help practitioners realize their own individual healing potential and reach optimal levels of health. The fundamental elements of RLWQ consist of techniques like Shaking and Cupping, Self-Massage, Vibrational Sound Healing and the Kwan Yin Closing & Showering Qi Movement. Additional elements include the Balancing Movement with Phoenix Opening, Lotus Rises from the Water, Longevity Qigong Series and Emotional Release techniques.
These techniques were developed by Level III Advanced Qigong Instructor and Clinical Practitioner, Daisy Lee and are based on teachings she received from Tibetan, Chinese and Western masters. The essential difference between RLWQ and other styles of Qigong is that its practiced and taught by women for women. Its techniques differ from other styles in that areas of the body specific to women’s health are focused on that are particularly vulnerable such as the breast tissue and reproductive organs.
For instance, in the other perhaps “harder” styles of Qigong, the practice of meridian tapping is applied to the body with a flat or chopping hand. In RLWQ however, the practice of meridian tapping uses a cupped hand to “pull” away stagnations, which offers a much more gentle and soothing approach that takes in to consideration sensitive areas specific to the body of a woman.
