Description
Qi down. Gather it home. Qi Gathering is a 12-minute guided lower dantian breath practice with William Potter, Acupuncturist, Qigong and Tai Chi Instructor. Slow, intentional breathing in and out through the nose, the belly rising on the inhale and softening on the exhale, while your attention and your qi settle into the lower dantian, the body’s energetic center just below the navel.
William’s voice guides every step over a deep, earthy binaural-beat music bed that glides from alpha down into the theta range, then brings you back up to alert at the end. A soft breath guide is timed to his counts, so you can simply follow along. Lower dantian breathing is traditionally used to ground and center, and slow belly breathing is associated with shifting the nervous system toward rest and digest. Headphones recommended for the binaural effect.
Includes the full 12-minute MP3 and the 10-page Qi Gathering Guide (PDF): origins and history, step-by-step instruction, what happens in the body, how it differs from diaphragmatic breathing, and safety notes.
Pairs beautifully with Breath Empowerment Epic 15. Epic 15 builds the fire; Qi Gathering is its calm, grounding counterpart that brings the energy home.
Safety: breathe gently and never force the breath. If you feel dizzy or light-headed, stop and return to natural breathing. Do not listen while driving or operating machinery. This practice is not a substitute for medical care; consult your healthcare provider if you have any health concerns.
