Thank you so much! It's so useful to have a small amount of different and useful movements to start with. Also it is visible in the video that you really enjoy these exercises, you look so joyful at the end there. Love it. 🙂
Thanks cuz for sharing your expertise and enthusiasm for health and well being. Appreciate what you do, have been doing even with a new baby. Thank you
I may not have rolling waves nearby all the time but it's nice to see a lovely beach and visualise ! Nice little taste of the joys of qigong. And nice quick pick-me-up. Thanks, Nick.
I think the general advice with osteoporosis is to avoid bending the spine forwards or twisting the spine. My suspicion is that doing so gently in a subtle range of motion without pushing into it would still be healthy, and help maintain range of motion without damaging bones further. But my only evidence for that is the general pattern of Qigong philosophy, which basically would advise to move each joint in every direction it can move on a regular basis to maintain mobility through age. Of course if this can’t be done without injury the risks would outweigh the benefits. So perhaps ask your doctor how far along your osteoporosis is, and whether they think it would be safe for you to move gently into forward fold or twisting motions in Qigong. I would also personally be supplementing plenty of Vitamin K, which helps prevent demineralization of bones and is a common deficiency in modern diets. Thorne Research sells an incredible high dose liquid form which can seriously up your levels quickly.
@@TheNickLoffree Thank you so much, Nick, for your immediate and very helpful reply. I think I will continue to bend forwards gently as I seem to be able to reach my toes without difficulty - but perhaps avoid side bends. I will also look into taking vit K. I have been hesitant to see a doctor because they tend to go straight to medication which I would prefer to avoid and instead focus on exercise and nutrition - but maybe I shouldn't be so hard-headed!!

I love this. So often I'm looking for a short routine to refresh myself in a few short minutes with qigong. This is perfect.

Hi Nick - I wonder if you have any idea if there are any movements that should not/or conversely should, be performed if you have osteoporosis?
