We all need to take a break sometimes—but what if you could go on a vacation that would actually make you more resilient to life’s pressures when you got back? With The End of Stress, Ken Cohen offers just that—a rejuvenating online “qi retreat” to relax, reenergize, and stay in the flow in challenging situations. This respected qigong master presents three video training sessions on qigong principles and practices to refresh your body with vital qi energy, dissolve tension, and reconnect with the ever-present energetic resources of the natural world.
In qigong, stress is understood to be stagnant energy stuck in the body, and many of our modern health problems arise from these internal blockages. The art of true relaxation, teaches Ken Cohen, is not to hide from stress, but to learn how to let that energy flow naturally and harmlessly through you. With step-by-step guidance, Ken Cohen takes you through a concise series of revitalizing qigong techniques intended to provide maximum benefit for busy people.
A qigong vacation gives you more than a reprieve from your busy schedule—with The End of Stress, you will discover how to meet the inevitable challenges of life with confidence, calm, and connection to the vast resources that the universe offers.
