World TC QG Day News: Qigong, Cure for the Common Cold:

Study after study shows that Tai Chi and Qigong profoundly lessen stress damage, and enable people to function more effectively with less stress damage. This has been shown in DNA research, in cellular research, and in psychological studies as well.


A 2012 University of Wisconsin, Madison, study found that mindful meditation can cut your chances of catching a cold by 40 to 50%. Fifty-one people using mindfulness techniques logged 13 fewer illnesses and 51 fewer sick days than a control group during one cold and flu season.
A University of Virginia study found that their varsity swim team swimmers got 70% fewer respiratory infections when practicing Qigong at least once a week, compared to swimmers who used it less.
