Integrating Eastern and Western Wisdom
The Shaolin Temple holds many treasures. Of these treasures, three stand out prominently.
QiGong
QiGong is not merely about cultivating physical health; it also helps with mental clarity. Whether you want to feel more calm during your day or recover from mental exhaustion, QiGong is the ancient practice that will help you get there. This ancient practice of cultivating health & longevity can help bring balance to your life, allowing you to get back on the right track and find happiness.
KungFu
Shaolin Kungfu is a traditional martial art that teaches us to control and develop our body and spirit. Our training methods combine the physical and mental aspects of our being, enhancing our vitality and helping us to defend ourselves when the need unexpectedly arises.
Meditation
Meditation is a process of connecting the mind with the divine. The ancient art of meditation has been practiced for centuries and has helped numerous people attain enlightenment. The Shaolin meditation technique is not religious or ritualistic, but spiritual.
Shaolin Way to Physical and Spiritual Health
Take your health and your life to new heights with the Shaolin Arts. The three arts of QiGong, KungFu, and Meditation are the living treasures of the Shaolin Temple. Forget everything you know about exercise or fitness. These arts will make you stronger, healthier, and happier than ever before!
Kungfu is about harmony, not aggression. It has its origin in the philosophy of the Shaolin, whose deep understanding of life underlies everything they did. We hope our Shaolin Temple UK will help you find balance, vitality, and joy in your life.
You may be asking how Shaolin qigong can give you health, vitality, and longevity. The answer is simple; by cleaning the meridians and harmonizing yin-yang.
Chinese medical philosophy states that if you cleanse your meridians and harmonize yin-yang, eliminate illness, then everything will be great! With qigong, people can clear meridians and strengthen vital energy to enhance immunity, reduce weight, improve skin appearance, prevent cancer, slow aging process.
