Hun Yuan Gong 混元功 is one of the most important Qigong methods in the Hun Yuan system, recommended as foundational for beginners through advanced practitioners. Hun Yuan Gong promotes health, prolongs life, deepens stillness, improves mental clarity, and increases internal strength. 

Movements are performed standing, and involve various gathering motions, as we draw in qi 氣 from the environment to augment our Prenatal Qi 先天元氣 (our genetic inheritance), as well as opening and closing motions. This practice opens the qi-channels of the body and establishes the Danqiao 丹竅 and the Dantian 丹田, energetic openings in the body where the essence, qi, and spirit 精氣神 are cultivated. 

Suitable for beginners.

Prerequisite: None
