13 Minutes of Body Activation / Loosening Exercises for the Morning with Shi Heng Yi 

I'm 103!!! This helps🎉🎉

I’m 47 and my muscles are stiffening up. I am going to start doing this every day because I still have 53 years left on the planet and I want to be able to enjoy my older years.

Thank you for not having any distracting music on your video!

I came across this video by accident. I’m so thankful for it. I’m 47 and having trouble getting moving. This truly helped this morning.

I am 19. I spent my childhood overweight eating poorly and sitting at a desk. At 17 I started working physical jobs, at 18 I started long distance running. At 19 I had surgery from slight birth defect that made me stiffen up and lose muscle from not moving for weeks. I will be doing this every morning because it seems great. Today is the day to start. Thank you.

I just turned 114 years old and this is really helping me cope with my nascent hair loss

As an older Navy veteran I got to admit I'm liking this exercise. Body is feeling great. Thanks again.

Finding you this morning is a blessing. Many thanks 🙏

I just now finished my 1st session of these exercises. It's first thing in the morning, just out of bed. I feel amazing! So alive and fluid and energized. Very effective! I'm 70. What an amazing way to start the day! Thank for offering this.

64 year old body loves Shaolin master.

❤”If you don’t use it, you lose it” So true. Thanks for sharing ❤

درود من نزدیک ۲۰ سال است این تمرینات را انجام می‌دهم. ۵۸ سال دارم. با وجود داشتن یک نقص مادرزادی در لگن که باعث کوتاهی پای چپ من شده، ولی هیچ دردی ندارم، فکر می‌کنم به‌خاطر همین ورزش‌های صبحگاهی و نیز ماساژ منظم است. خدا را شکر می‌کنم که ۲۰ سال پیش از طریق آموزش‌های کلاس‌های مستر سوا کوک چویی با این تمرینات آشنا شدم. در آن کلاس‌ها به ما گفته شد این تمرینات برای پاکسازی هاله انرژی ما خوب است. از طریق این کلاس‌ها همچنین با ماساژ یومی هو آشنا شدم که بسیار برای مشکل مفصل لگن من کمک کرد و من توانستم با لنگیدن کمتر و راحت‌تر راه بروم. سپاس از خدای بزرگ و معلمان و استادانم.

Thank you. I needed this for my mornings. Something not too hard for a 75 year old lady. And at my age I can attest to if you don’t use it, you loose it.

I am 76 , doing some of these exercises regularly, yours is the best guidance thank you,

Thank you for this interesting and invigorating routine. I am 70, and love staying flexible and opened; available for whatever physical activity God enables me to do.

As a 75 year old woman with osteoarthritis, these really helped to awaken and loosen my joints upon awakening this morning. I will be doing these daily and sharing with my family and friends. With gratitude and respect. I have subscribed and turned on the notification bell so that I will get future videos from you.❤🙏🏾

Going through all the postures whilst praying 5 times a day is awesome. helps physically as well as mentally.

I am 64 and have had some physical joint issues and lack of mobility. I did these exercises and I feel a whole lot better and clear headed. I will continue daily. Grateful! 🙏

Dear Shi Heng Yi, I keep doing this morning routine with you and also do some of your exercises that are on RU-vid. I used to do yoga and dancing but I damaged 3 meniscuses and have some serious health issues so I chose carefully all I can do. Every day I have to listen to at least one but usually 2-3 of your messages, mainly from Mulligan Brothers, it became my school of life. It might sound strange, I am 62, lived in different countries - Ukraine, russia, Czech Republic, and now in the US but I take you as my teacher and somewhere deep inside my heart, as my son. Sadly, there is no any understanding between me and my 42 y.o. son. You brought me some light and direction. Thank you for being You. Lots of love and respect from Svitlana.

I use to love getting up early in the morning to exercise to stretching videos that came on TV at that time of day, then go jogging. This looks/sounds like very good advice for maintaining fitness.😌🙏🏼

Этот комплекс пропагандировал в России несколько десятилетий назад Мирзакарим Норбеков. Мы, люди старшего поколения, знали и ценили эти восточные практики. С благодарностью пользовались ими на благо здоровья. Отличные упражнения!

Wow! Just popped up. I am 70 and I hope to do this every day. Thank You!

Been doing this every morning for 21 days I'm 64 and I'm feeling like 🦁 thank you

I am a healer and do professional bodywork. I want to thank you for your time and care for others. I feel balanced and my wrists have released considerably. Bless you Shifu 💆🏾‍♀️🧘🏾‍♀️🤝🏾🤎

i’m 23 years old but my work and study requires that i spend so much time sitting during the day. this video was so great, i really don’t want my body to deteriorate at a young age, so i’ll try to incorporate this into my daily routine or during breaks between study sessions. thank you so much master!

Just from the look of it.. WONDERFUL BODY ACTIVATION ! One thing to point out ...The breathing really has to be done slowly in stages like yoga inhalations. Also..the movements pace will bring more benefits if slowed down to make it more thorough . I'm speaking from the experience as well as from the view of biomechanics of the body's stricture. Starting it right now !❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

I am 35 years old, and I have back and shoulder pain, first time I try this my back and shoulder feels so good, pain reduce a lot! now I try to discipline my self to make this my routine. thanks master!

I’m 55 years old I enjoyed your videos

This is gold!👍Excellent exercises to do every day!Thank you master Shaolin✌️🙏🌹🌈💫

Sorry one additional quick note. Watch the video til the end. If it's one thing that we need to pay attention to as we get older it's the flexibility and strength of our feet! For balance! xoxo

Outstanding video. Thank you so much. (72 years young and plan to do this every day) 😊

This young man is truly a movement master.

Thank you for your instructions that's with much kindness and care. I also appreciate no advertisement to break the flow, which is deeply appreciated! Thank you once more!

I started exercising with Master Shi Heng Yi two years ago. I happened to stumble upon his RU-vid page. It was one of the most challenging set of exercises that I ever took on. It was very different for me. But I hung in there and saw progress and results within a short amount of time, both physically and mentally. Was so glad that I found him.

Trying this for the first time was a beautiful awakening... I jump out of bed to a glass of water and then begin this session. You and your sessions are much needed for so many .. as it is healing and uplifting at the same time. Your 20 minute daily morning routine is exceptional. Out there in the snow, you practice with such ease and peace of mind. I'm so happy and grateful I found you here... Blessings to all.

Just started these energizing exercises🙏🥰...............I found 1) I needed to do them SLOWER between each exercise 2)Not as many reps .but will increase as and when I get stronger. Thank you so much for this video It's what I've been looking for after 25 yrs of Yoga.asanas. Grateful at 86🙏😍 Will spread your word!

Thank you, I’m 72 and have always been fit and strong. I really notice. Change now in my 70’s. I will start this tomorrow!🙏

As a kid I did a bit of martial arts and our master was always first doing this exercises, followed up by a bit of running. Great to be reminded of the full exercise 👌🏼 PS: indeed we were doing the toes joints also

Thank you SHI HENG I am a male and I am 73 lots of aches and pains so I will start these exercises

need more of this kind of videos

🙇‍♂️ I just found this today, I did not realise you had another channel. The secret of the toes must be revealed!

I woke up with stubborn pain in my right hand from crocheting all night, and this is just what I needed! Thank you 🙏

First time. Loved it!

I have been doing this exercise every day for the last week. It is amazing. I can feel the increase in my blood circulation and feel reenergized. I have sent this video clip to my friends.

Thank God I found you! This is AMAZING! I have young onset Parkinson’s and these early morning exercises really set the pace of my day to supercharged! Love it!!!

Thank you so much for this morning wake up loosen up exercise routine a year ago I thought I'd end up in a wheelchair I had so much stiffness and pain in one hip with the neuropathy in my feet I was sitting a lot and tell everybody that what you said is true if you don't use it you will lose it but there is hope start moving and things will get better

Wonderful, thank you very much. I haven't done these exercises for a long time.

What a beautiful place! The sound of the birds and the running water, pure rhythm.

perfect! and we can always add 15 min of yi jin jing sometime during the day 😘; my body says a big thank you

I would just add that for us oldies (I'm 58) its probably advisable to do these excersises more slowly. Especially the neck ones ❤

Thank you for doing the videos outside with all the sights & sounds of nature. When I closed my eyes, & listened for a moment, it was very serene

I have many joint problems now that I am 71. I started doing some of these exercises already this year and they helped. This video showed me more exercises and a better way to use them. I will watch this video every morning and use it as an exercise partner! Wonderful video thank you so much!

shi heng yi Du Bist der der in mir alles zu vorschein bringst. Ich habe vor drei wochen mit 3 übungen begonnen und bin jetzt fähig 7 übungen in45 minuten zu trainieren. durch dich verändert sich gerade mein ganzes Leben Namaste lieber shi heng yi

Danke dir ShiFu für diese morgendliche Übung 🧘🏽‍♂️🪷

Thank you for THIS TRADITIONAL WAY to help BREAK FOREVER THE MATRIX OF GOOD EVIL CONSCIOUSNESS MER KA BA Blessings S.E.K.O.S.S ❤❤❤

This was wonderful. I was so happy to found it. I'm a 67 year old woman and started doing yoga 1978 but now I have been 10 years so tired because of cancer and everything and havent done almost nothing. After watching this video I want to start to do this every morning❤

Dear Shi Heng, this is a great reminder for what is important to stay flexible. Your education style is amazingly! Thanks for your spirit of play during the day.

From my heart to yours and to the world .❤

Thank you Greetings from Cape Town South Africa 🇿🇦

Best thing,Master Shi Heng Yi…is Actually Doing it For Us and with us…So Motivating and Inspiring- At 45 i feel refreshed doing it everyday-🙏

I’m very impressed with the instructor’s balance. Even trained athletes have a predominant side. One side is stronger, more flexible or fluid. Almost no one lifts both arms an equal distance over their head. That knee rotation (some call it ‘skier’s dip’) is one where you will typically perform perfect circles in one direction and then find yourself performing squares when going the other way! One side leads and the other follows, if ever so slightly. But I can’t distinguish any leading or trailing side with this gentleman. I’m 68 and do similar stretches every day but not with nearly this level of proficiency. Thank you, sir!

Jestem z Polski.Dzieki twoim ćwiczeniom Qigong udało mi się przetrwać chemioterapię i wygrać z rakiem jelita.Wiem że ciężko w to uwierzyć, ale ja wiem co mówię. Dziękuję. Krzysztof

Wow. That felt amazing. I didn't realize I needed it. Thank you so much!

At 65 we do these in water aerobics before starting. Thank you for your video 🥰🙏🏼

Thank you, Master.How are you on time! I really warmed up and felt warm. You are in a greit place. My "anchor" turned on and I really wanted to go to the village, where there are very beautiful places.I writing with positive emotions that are going througt the roof in me. A wonderful start to the day!Thank you!!!

Great exercise thanks i need it at 62yrs of age

Thank you so much for providing all of us with this wonderful routine! I'm 60 years old and in relatively good shape but I'm adding this to my morning routine. I don't want to loose it. :)

Shaolin 🙂 geniale Übungen kann jeder mitmachen so wie er kann, man kann beobachten bei den kreisenden Bewegungen wie der man sich gerade zieht. Und zudem öffnen sich Blockaden. Einfach langsam mitmachen. Ich habe früher auch viel trainiert, ähnliches! Dankeschön lieber Mönch

I am grateful to you, for teaching us, online.

thanks!

Thank you 🙏🏽 Great to start my morning routine with this to help loosen up my joints.

I'm glad to hear it 😊. For some reason I am able to recall all the exercises he demonstrated during the 13 minutes. Usually I can't remember all of them so I write them down in short hand. I look forward to doing these later on today after my physical therapy. Keep up the good work🌞

I love it. Almost 65 years. I feel like a panther!!!!😇😜

What a great warmup and workout plus an outstanding bridge to your next workout. Thank you Shifu 👍🙏🏻🫡!

This dude is amazing, I'm doing these exercises and the effects are amazing,☀️ handsome too❤ Thank you for sharing these wonderful videos, finally using technology for some healthy stuff. My mom at 65 started doing it with me after seeing me happier and healthier than ever thank you again 🙏☀️🍀

Hello from the UK, a 71 year old lady, vegan and hopefully healthy - thank you !!! I am an ex professional ballroom dancer and used to teach fitness also but have stopped exercising. Again, thank you so much for this, I love it and will be using this each day! Bless you.

Thank you for this simple and engaging practice 😊

Wow, this brings back memories. I did Kung fu a long time ago. But because of a lot of injuries and age, I stopped. These are nearly exactly the beginning start of our warm ups. Thank you.

Best video to start your day.❤Thankyou

Thank you for sharing your knowledge and kindness with the world. This helped my Morning physically as well as mentally. As I’m writing this I notice my spirit is more uplifted and lighter as well - thank you again and very grateful.
