1
00:00:00,200 --> 00:00:02,170
I SUFFER
FROM SEVERE DEPRESSION,

2
00:00:02,170 --> 00:00:04,900
ONE IN WHICH
I SEE A PSYCHIATRIST FOR,

3
00:00:04,900 --> 00:00:09,800
AND ALSO I
SUFFER FROM CHRONIC FATIGUE.

4
00:00:09,800 --> 00:00:11,570
YOU WOULD JUST WAKE UP,
AND YOU'RE STILL TIRED.

5
00:00:11,570 --> 00:00:14,300
YOU MIGHT GET 8 HOURS OF SLEEP,
UNINTERRUPTED,

6
00:00:14,300 --> 00:00:16,200
AND THEN YOU JUST WAKE UP,
AND YOU'RE STILL TIRED.

7
00:00:16,200 --> 00:00:19,440
MY FATIGUE WOULD BE
THROUGHOUT THE WHOLE DAY.

8
00:00:19,440 --> 00:00:22,440
MY BODY WOULD JUST FEEL
LIKE IT'S JUST WORN.

9
00:00:22,440 --> 00:00:24,240
AND I REALLY DIDN'T UNDERSTAND

10
00:00:24,240 --> 00:00:25,370
WHY I WAS FEELING THE WAY
I WAS FEELING

11
00:00:25,370 --> 00:00:28,170
OR WHAT WAS GOING ON,
I DIDN'T UNDERSTAND.

12
00:00:28,170 --> 00:00:31,970
I FELT LIKE I WAS LIVING
TO BE A 60 OR 65-YEAR-OLD MAN

13
00:00:31,970 --> 00:00:35,300
WITH ZERO ENERGY IN MY BODY.

14
00:00:35,300 --> 00:00:39,300
I JUST FELT LIKE I NEEDED
A PILL OR SOME TYPE OF CHEMICAL

15
00:00:39,300 --> 00:00:42,040
TO JUMPSTART ME.

16
00:00:42,040 --> 00:00:43,600
YOU ACTUALLY PUT YOUR BODY
THROUGH A LOT MORE

17
00:00:43,600 --> 00:00:45,770
THAN WHAT YOU THINK YOU DO
ON A NORMAL BASIS,

18
00:00:45,770 --> 00:00:48,200
AND THAT YOU NEED A RECHARGE.

19
00:00:48,200 --> 00:00:50,970
AND WHAT THAT RECHARGE IS,
IT'S SOMETHING THAT'S INTERNAL.

20
00:00:50,970 --> 00:00:53,940
YOU'RE NOT GOING TO GET IT
FROM AN OUTSIDE SOURCE,

21
00:00:53,940 --> 00:00:57,040
LIKE, SAY, A CAN OF SODA
OR ENERGY PILL.

22
00:00:57,040 --> 00:00:59,070
THAT'S NOT IT, BECAUSE THOSE
ARE LOADED WITH CAFFEINES

23
00:00:59,070 --> 00:01:02,140
OR OTHER TYPE OF CHEMICALS
THAT COUNTERACT

24
00:01:02,140 --> 00:01:04,540
WHATEVER ELSE YOU'VE BEEN TRYING
TO PUT IN YOUR BODY

25
00:01:04,540 --> 00:01:07,070
EARLY IN THE DAY
OR LATER STAGES OF THE DAY.

26
00:01:07,070 --> 00:01:11,570
WHAT'S DONE IS AN INTERNAL FORM
OF MEDICINE

27
00:01:11,570 --> 00:01:14,600
THAT ALLOWS THE BLOOD FLOW
TO REGULATE THROUGH YOUR BODY.

28
00:01:14,600 --> 00:01:16,570
AND IT CHANNELS
ITSELF NATURALLY,

29
00:01:16,570 --> 00:01:18,300
AND THAT'S THE ENERGY BOOST,

30
00:01:18,300 --> 00:01:20,640
OR THAT'S THE LIFT
THAT I NEEDED.

31
00:01:20,640 --> 00:01:23,400
I NEEDED SOMETHING INTERNAL
BUT NATURAL.

32
00:01:23,400 --> 00:01:26,900
SO QIGONG, IN ESSENCE, DID HELP.

33
00:01:26,900 --> 00:01:30,500
INITIALLY, YOU START OUT
WITH A SET OF MOVEMENTS

34
00:01:30,500 --> 00:01:31,970
AND A SET OF TECHNIQUES,

35
00:01:31,970 --> 00:01:34,700
AND IT REGULATES
AND FLOWS THE CHI IN YOUR BODY.

36
00:01:34,700 --> 00:01:38,240
THE CHI IS ALSO KNOWN AS ENERGY
IN CHINESE MEDICINE.

37
00:01:38,240 --> 00:01:40,370
THAT'S WHAT CHI IS,
IT'S CALLED ENERGY.

38
00:01:40,370 --> 00:01:42,470
AND WHAT IT DOES IS IT FILTRATES
THROUGH YOUR BODY

39
00:01:42,470 --> 00:01:46,200
AND IT GIVES YOU--

40
00:01:46,200 --> 00:01:50,670
IN ESSENCE, IT UPLIFTS YOU,
IT GIVES YOU A REFRESHENING,

41
00:01:50,670 --> 00:01:51,840
ANOTHER WAY OF TRYING

42
00:01:51,840 --> 00:01:55,970
TO BASICALLY
RECHARGE YOUR SYSTEM.

43
00:01:55,970 --> 00:01:57,670
AND IT WAS VERY STRANGE
AT FIRST,

44
00:01:57,670 --> 00:02:00,340
BECAUSE, ONCE I LEFT,
YOU KNOW,

45
00:02:00,340 --> 00:02:02,270
I WAS SKEPTICAL
IF THIS WAS GOING TO WORK.

46
00:02:02,270 --> 00:02:03,400
I MEAN, I HAD READ UP ON IT,

47
00:02:03,400 --> 00:02:05,740
I'VE SEEN A VIDEO
OR TWO ON YOUTUBE

48
00:02:05,740 --> 00:02:07,870
ABOUT THE QIGONG STUDY,
BUT I WASN'T QUITE SURE

49
00:02:07,870 --> 00:02:10,440
IF THIS WAS GOING TO BE
BENEFICIAL FOR ME,

50
00:02:10,440 --> 00:02:12,800
BECAUSE I'D SUFFERED FROM IT
FOR SUCH A LONG PERIOD OF TIME.

51
00:02:12,800 --> 00:02:14,500
I JUST WASN'T SURE.

52
00:02:14,500 --> 00:02:18,300
BUT AFTER THE FIRST SESSION,
I WAS A BELIEVER.

53
00:02:18,300 --> 00:02:20,800
I GOT ME BACK, I'M BACK.

54
00:02:20,800 --> 00:02:23,170
I LIKE THE WAY I FEEL.

55
00:02:23,170 --> 00:02:24,840
WHAT I WAS EXPERIENCING BEFORE,

56
00:02:24,840 --> 00:02:30,440
THIS WAS JUST
A BUILD-UP OF TOXINS

57
00:02:30,440 --> 00:02:31,540
THAT WERE IN MY BODY.

58
00:02:31,540 --> 00:02:36,600
ONCE I WENT
THROUGH ALL THE PROPER STEPS,

59
00:02:36,600 --> 00:02:38,840
AND I SAT THERE
AND I OPENED MY MIND

60
00:02:38,840 --> 00:02:41,300
TO WHAT WAS
BEING OFFERED TO ME,

61
00:02:41,300 --> 00:02:42,870
AND THEN, AFTER
THE FIRST SESSION,

62
00:02:42,870 --> 00:02:45,940
I JUST FELT THE REJUVENATION
THROUGH MY BODY.

63
00:02:45,940 --> 00:02:48,200
AND ALL IT WAS
WAS SIMPLE MOVEMENTS.

64
00:02:48,200 --> 00:02:52,640
THIS IS NOT A CHINESE MEDICINE
THAT'S GOING TO CURE EVERYTHING.

65
00:02:52,640 --> 00:02:54,240
THIS IS NOT SOMETHING
THAT, YOU KNOW,

66
00:02:54,240 --> 00:02:55,900
IS LIKE MAGIC DUST YOU SPRINKLE

67
00:02:55,900 --> 00:02:57,540
A LITTLE BIT
OVER EACH INDIVIDUAL,

68
00:02:57,540 --> 00:02:59,240
AND THEY'RE AUTOMATICALLY CURED.

69
00:02:59,240 --> 00:03:02,470
IT TAKES DEDICATION, DEVOTION,
AND AN OPEN MIND

70
00:03:02,470 --> 00:03:04,000
TO MAKE THIS THING HAPPEN.
