Heart Song is a gentle, heart-centered Qigong routine that will help ease tension, calm the mind, and create more space in the body, especially around the chest.
In Traditional Chinese Medicine, the heart is seen as the 'House of the Shen" our spirit, awareness, and heart Qi.
Strong Shen leads to a healthy and strong mind.
When life feels overwhelming or the mind is busy, we may feel tightness around the chest, heaviness in the heart, or a sense of disconnection.
This routine practices the concept of 'Song' - to soften, loosen, and deeply relax, without collapsing. Through slow, flowing movements and intentional breath, you’ll be able to relax physical tension, settle emotional unease, and restore your natural sense of lightness.
Heart Song is especially supportive during times of stress, anxiety, or mental fatigue. It’s a simple way to reconnect, recenter, and move forward with more ease and clarity.
