• The word qi (chee) is often translated
“vital energy” and gong means “work.”• So qigong may be interpreted as
“working with vital energy.” Qigong as
a healing art is a precursor to all themartial arts;
• before the Shaolin monks developed
the gongfu (kung fu) for which they
are famous, they trained in qigong to
maximize their health.
