Yi Qi Kung Exercises 1-18

Yi Qi Kung Exercises 1-18. The entire third series of Liangong movements strengthens your respiratory and cardiovascular health through gentle qigong movements. Well researched for the past 40 years, this third series in the 18 Essential Movements to Do Daily was developed almost a decade after the first two series.
