Sometimes you need a little outside help

"In gyms around the country it's quite common to see people on stair-climbing machines reading manuals or on stationary bicycles watching television. There is a huge disconnect here between mind and body. No wonder so many people feel off balance and exhausted.
The purpose of Qiging is to check in, to connect, and to cultivate our energy. This CD is excellent in that it sets the mood for this. The music is somewhat Chinese and creates an atmosphere that is so necessary for conscious movement and harmony.
If you want to spice up your Qiging practice, while at the same time maintaining that "easy does it" pace so key to Chinese yoga, then buy this CD."
Not what I expected

"A delightful music assortment for background music is a mind and body setting. I could not find an application of the music within my Qigong practices. Some Qigong systems use a slow and steady flow of precisely timed notes to set a tempo for the exercise. This soothing music sometimes shifts into a lively lilt without warning. Not a bad CD for a soft studio background ambience, but may not be well suited to incorporate it into Qigong practice."
