Qi Gong for Late Summer | Centering Qigong for Digestion, Worry, Stomach, & Spleen 

I've been practicing Qigong since 2008 and I always learn something new about a movement or how do something a little different from you. Thanks Nick!

such a privilege to be able to do these classes - thank you so much

what a gorgeous stone ledge that is, and such a wonderful practice Nick. Appreciating you!

Perfect timing for this. My energy levels were low and worry levels high. Post flow I definitely feel more balanced. Thank you Nick.

What a sweet setting for this qi gong practice! Love the babbling brook! Thanks 🙏

Thank you so much Nick. You have no idea how much I appreciate your classes. I am grieving and at times find it so difficult to function and really have to motivate myself to do one of your classes, but when I do I always feel better. 🙏💜

Thank you for another great practice, Nick. Perfect timing as always, and I always love the nature sounds in your videos.

Beautiful practice, as always! Thank you Nick!😍

Another wonderful session. From the information and gentle but precise instruction to the beauty of your site to the sound of the water, a very effective class. Thank you, as always, Nick.

I just started using these videos two weeks ago after a friend introduced me. Thank you for making this practice available!

Very fitting to where I am at in late summer. Perfect pacing and setting, as always.

Thank you Nick!!! Blessings!

This one is my favorite for now. Just what I needed.

I was just exposed to Qi Gong last fall and I loved this one! Thank you.

Really calm and beautiful setting and movements all so smooth. Thank you.

Very Appreciative! Thank You Gratefully! 🙏🏽💝🌺

Thank you Nick. Such a healing practice ❤️

Thank you for this wonderful video

beautiful. the movement at 4:50min was quite challenging

Thank you Nick, very enjoyable class and lovely location. (And I highly recommend Nick's Teacher Training to anyone considering)☯️

Hello Nick, this is an amazing routine. I could feel an immediate positive effect on my digestive system and mental emotional state. Namaste 🙏

amazing amazing, perfect sequence for today and time of year

Thanks! I so appreciate your videos Nick! Thank you so much for creating and sharing these awesome qigong flows. 👍✌🙏💖

Thanks Nick - beautiful grounding practice as I've been traveling this week.

Thank you! This was perfect timing for me! 🙏

Another excellent session!

Moving the upper thoracic in circle while lumbar is stationary, and vice versa, was a great exercise! Thank you kindly, Nick, for making this content available. I am considering your teacher training this fall.

Thank you so much ! I've just discovered you, and this is the first practice I did. It was marvellous, I really enjoyed it 🙏🙏🙏

You’re the best Nick.

Thank you for this!

Really nice! Thanks for this practice Nick!

Thank you!👍

Absolutely beautiful, Thank you Nick

Excellent routine!

. I do enjoy your flows, this one really resonated with me. Prior to this, I have been feeling energetically low. I felt as if I were just as energetic as a trickling summer creek. Still flowing, however not as mighty as months prior. A part of me felt as if just as the seasons change throughout the year, we as humans reflect the environment. Good Information, good practice. I feel awesome post practice and do express gratitude for your presence.

Exactly what I needed. Thank you so much!

Love this routine Nick!

Gorgeous location! 🤩

Brilliant, thanks so much Nick

Late summer and autumn are always the hardest time of the year for me - as the hours of daylight diminish, I feel my spirits draining too, and these sessions with you are a real godsend as I always feel better for them. Love the soothing sound of water and the opportunity to live and move in the moment. Thank you so very much!

Excellent, thank you 🌞

Ah I enjoyed that so much tank you 🙏😌

I have been feeling some discomfort on my stomach, lower ab, pelvis and saw this! Perfect. I also loved the moves here and the heavenly sound of sweet water. Thank you

Nick - Perfect melting of movement and words. The setting sets off primal ancient memories for me. Much thanks!

This was beautiful, thanks Nick.

Thankyou

Thank you ...I m following your Sesions !!!

Very nice. Thank you🤗🙌

This was a great exercise to relax our backs! We're 3 days in with a 30 ft trailer and an 8ft trailer creeping down to Missouri. Ouch my back! Thus was perfect for our little campsite. Qigong is my favorite!

Lovely, as always!

Thank you Nick! Late Summer. My favorite!

Ahhh, feeling nourished and grounded with Earth now! Looking forward to teacher training with you soon. When do we learn the advanced practice of magical disappearance that you always do at the end of videos? :)

I was looking for a seasonal practice for ‘late summer’ and came across your video. Thank you Nick. I really gained a lot from this today. Your calm, smooth, Qi centred practice is great to follow. As a Qigong/tai chi teacher it’s great to learn something new for my own practice. Blessings from the UK.

Earth element is connected to the bones, dense tissue like muscles and over all vitality, not the digestion. It is the fire element that runs the digestion. This is why it is not advised to drink a lot while eating. The water element shuts down the digestive fire and makes the digestion slow and troublesome.

Thank you Nick. After beginning to dabble with zen-swing style movement-as-medicine, I committed to a 100-day challenge. Now it's a daily routine and you are my go-to guide. Super combination of concept explanation and demonstration with just the right mix of breath guidance and energy intention!

Thank you 🙂

Excellent. Really enjoyed the location as well as the practice.

You're an inspirational instructor. 👏 Thank you for this flow. Very nice. I love how you change it up, keeps me on my toes.

Thank you! Another great routine. You have become my go-to-person for offering routines online. I appreciate your generosity to share. I am unable to take courses due to feasibility. Blessings

wonderful so relaxing and effective. THank you so much. I love it

lovely😍

Thank you, Nick. I am fairly new to Qi Gong, and loved the calm flow of your movements. I shall certainly be trying these movements out. 🙏🙏🙏

Thanks for this. It is the end of Winter here in Australia, but this was the perfect grounding practice for me.

Great Video !! liver tapping (niacin?) i would caution when dubbing using terms left rt vs clockwise. For me it would be clearer stage left [everything in 1st person]. When following a F practitioner i act as if she is my mirror image (rt hand over left for ex). I have a pet peeve about changed play back speeds on the overdubs [sound tracks ?]

Hey Nick, thank you for the great Qigong sessions. It's nice to see how you as a practitioner and your channel has been all growing, as I am an early bird in your journey. Good luck with all of that :) (*) I wanted to ask whether you could make a Qigong set for guys to activate masculine energy, sacrum, boost libido, confidence, fertility, increase testosterone ? - IF there are Qigong practises for that which you can show. All the best !

Very much enjoyed revisiting this practice as summer is waning. Thanks! Would you share what brand of shoes you're wearing?

Wonderful. Your voice is calming as well. Thank you Nick. Thinking about doing the training in October 🙂

Hey Nick! Another nice video, thank you. Would you please explain how you differentiate "Earth Center" from Lower Dan Tien? I notice that you reference the solar plexus as the Earth center. I usually call this area the "Golden Court" . My guess is there is some overlap, but I bet you also have some interesting insights. Thanks!

🙏

Thank you for this! Gorgeous. As usual, appreciate the detailed explanations. Cheers!🙏☯

Loved the practice, Nick! Is grinding the rice the same as the grinding the tofu movement I have seen you do in the past or is there a difference? Also , separating heaven and earth is my favorite QG movement (although not covered in the training 😞) .I LOVE all the variations you bring for it in your practices and am curious about their origins. ~Beaker

Would this be good for prolapsed organs -bladder, possibly bowel? I have read elsewhere that prolapses can be due to weak spleen, but the exercises look a bit demanding if there is discomfort in the lower abdomen.

Can this be practiced out of season?

can all flows be performed during pregnancy too? i had heard that some movements are not recommended (sinking the qi, separating heaven and earth, knocking on the door of life, etc) thanks!

Thank you Nick. We heading into spring here in South Africa. I'm new to qigong so please forgive my lack of knowledge. Is this practice only done towards the end of summer? Take care an thank you for your understanding 🙏 😊

Nick, when are you going to teach us how to disappear?

How do you disappear?

Nice program, although when you mention Buddhism as a religion and say that people shouldnt consider qigong as being religious, i gotta say this. Buddhism is per definition not a religion. Its a philosophy, a way of life. A religion must have a God, which Buddhism does not. Also the word "religion" itself which means to re-bind or re-connect from the lating re-ligio, infers that we have lost something that needs re-connecting to. Buddhism doesnt strive for any of that, only for Nirvana which is their nothingness.
