DEEPER INTO QI
with Part 2 of 2
DD: How did your father’s work in the medical fi eld impact you growing up as a child?
JP: My dad is a senior pharmacist at a hospital. He knows pharmaceuticals have side eff ects and believes in preventing disease using food as medicine. At fi rst, my dad didn’t believe in Qi. Once he felt the energy for himself, he began practicing Qigong and studying Chinese medical models. My choice to enter the wellness fi eld was infl uenced by my dad and his emphasis on a scientifi c approach. I have a healthy skepticism in all matters of healthcare and I still believe Western medicine has its place when combined with eff ective food and breathing practices.
DD: Why is Qigong Healing so profound compared to other remedial modalities?
JP: Qigong works directly with your LIFE ENERGY to a greater degree than yoga or traditional exercise. Postures are ‘rooted’ in one place where grounding and electrical charges build stronger. Graceful hand motions move the Qi and blood in profound ways while the person is very relaxed. Qigong’s relaxation response allows for greater microcirculation in the frontal lobes of the brain. Qigong practice can improve intelligence and even deepen one’s connection with God, the Source of life.
DD: You coined the phrase, “Press on Qi!” Why is this emphasized so often in your healing forms?
JP: Press on Qi is describing subtle movement on the edge of your magnetic fi eld. When a person practices Qigong and learns to PRESS on the energy fi eld, it immediately strengthens blood circulation, digestion and metabolism and improves important body functions. I trademarked the term Press on Qi as our way of expressing this idea unique to our Qigong style.
20 Central Florida Aſt er Paul fl ew back to China, I craved to fi nd another
Qigong expert who could explain more. Master Weizhao Wu was my most infl uential teacher for Qigong, a practitioner himself since age 7. Although he passed away, his memory lives in the most excellent posture corrections that he carefully gave. He would open my thumb and relax it so the tendons were not hard anymore. T at thumb correction makes a huge improvement to Qi fl ow and has been passed to my forms.
DD: Through this process of education and discipline, how long did it take for you
to create the Supreme Science Qigong healing forms?
JP: Aſt er fi ve years traveling and producing seminars for other Qigong masters, I fi nally created my Level-1 Qigong Healing Form. It was fi rst published in our books in 2003 and only a few
