Master Mingtong Gu – Qigong for a Happy Heart
Your Unfolding Qigong Journey
In the first week, you’ll be given a video in which Master Gu demonstrates how to begin to awaken your happy heart. Each subsequent week you’ll progress, with Master Gu’s guidance, through Qigong’s physical, mental, emotional and spiritual dimensions.
Through video, audio and text teachings and tools, you’ll have everything you need to start and develop a personal daily practice to cultivate a happy heart and a deep sense of inner joy. Your personal practice is further supported by video/audio practice sessions and materials available 24/7 at the class portal.
Your daily Qigong practice can also help release stress, strengthen body resilience and posture, increase mental clarity, and awaken awareness of self and others.
So you can take your learning and practice even deeper, you can ask Master Gu whatever questions you have anytime throughout the course. Master Gu will answer your submitted questions in the Q&A sessions at the end of each class and answers to common questions will also be posted to your Course Homepage.

Wisdom Healing Qigong is suitable for all ages and abilities and can be done sitting, standing or lying down. It is also highly compatible with other energy practices such as yoga, tai chi, acupuncture and meditative practices. Comfortable clothes are recommended, but special exercise clothes or mats are not needed.

What You’ll Discover in These 7 Weeks
Course sessions are on Tuesdays at 5:00pm Pacific.
During the 7-week program, Master Mingtong Gu will joyfully guide you through the role of Qi energy and how to connect heart, mind and body to cultivate abundant Qi flow for your health, healing and daily life. Master Gu has selected Wisdom Healing Qigong teachings focused on cultivating a happy heart, and will guide you in the steps to explore this powerful Qigong lineage and to create your own Qigong practice for energy abundance.
Each weekly class session will build harmoniously upon the next and will include a video presentation by Mingtong Gu featuring the teachings, demonstrations, and/or guided movements, meditations and visualizations for that week. You can practice along with Master Gu as he demonstrates these practices and return to the recorded version when the class is over to maintain your practice.
Each video presentation will be followed by a Q&A session with Master Gu — a favorite feature! The Q&A invites students to communicate with this renowned master and to receive support for incorporating these teachings into their personal practice.
Practice Component: The deep benefits of Qigong come from practicing the sounds, movements and meditations yourself, so you can feel and experience their transformative effects. Each weekly session will help you to develop a practice of your own.
Qigong for a Happy Heart is appropriate for all ages and abilities and does not require special clothing or exercise equipment. If you are unable to attend live, you’ll receive class recordings, transcripts and supplemental materials so you can still experience the full benefits of the program.
Master Gu will be live on the course calls as often as possible; however, it may be necessary to pre-record up to two sessions due to his international travel and retreat schedule.

Through our Qigong practice we can learn how to heal from the stories of our life, so that our heart is open and resilient again. Because everything in life is connected, we can’t simply throw a feeling of stress and anxiety away. Instead we’ll transform it through healing Qigong sounds so it doesn’t negatively affect our body or mind, or dampen our ability to feel joy.
