Taiji quan & Qigong health benefits. News in the World

Qigong for the Prevention, Treatment, and Rehabilitation of COVID-19 Infection in Older Adults

According to different operations, Qigong techniques can be divided into two groups: dynamic or active Qigong, and passive or meditative Qigong.
Dynamic Qigong refers to those techniques that primarily focus on body movements and involve more movements of the whole body or limbs.
Tai-chi, 
Yi Jin Jing (Tendon-Muscle Strengthening Classic Exercises), Wu Qin Xi (Five-animal Exercise), Liu Zi Jue (Six-Healing Sounds), and Ba Duan Jin (8 Pieces of Silk) (The Eight Brocades) are examples of dynamic Qigong that have gained worldwide popularity.

Contrastingly, passive Qigong techniques have almost no body movement, but require maintaining a certain posture and carrying out exercises mainly involving the breath and mind.
