What is Forest Qigong?

Qigong, ( also spelt -qi gong, chi kung, or chi gung) is an ever-deepening system of coordinated posture, movement and breathing, in a calm state of mind. It is of great benefit to body-mind, and soul, and is considered by some, a spiritual practice.

Forest Qigong, (not to be confused with Spring Forest Qigong) is simply the practice of Qigong in a natural woodland environment.

The main diffrence being that ones practice is very well supported and enhanced by being imersed in the primordial environment of a natural ancient woodland.
