If you are reading this then you have already made the important decision, you are looking at qigong as a way to improve your life. Whether you are researching qigong as a way to improve your physical health or mental well being it doesn't matter, what matters is that you have taken the first step.
The big question when someone starts studying Qigong (or most other natural health processes) is "Will books on Qigong be enough?". Books are much cheaper than personal instruction in just about anything, but are qigong books going to be as much help as a personal qigong teacher?
Whether you choose to use books on qigong or find a personal teacher who will guide you through the gradual stages of qigong training depends on many things. Do you have a qigong teacher in your area, being the main one but of course there are other reasons that you may choose to learn from books rather than from a personal teacher.
When you read your qigong book will affect how effectively you learn from it, reading in bed at the end of the day may be the easiest but it isn't going to be the time when you feel like jumping up and exercising. It is ok to read in bed, but just make sure that you go and re-read the section before you go and try any of the exercises.
Having a regularly scheduled time when you will do nothing but study and practice qigong will help you to stay on your desired course. This regular schedule is why many people join classes when they want to learn anything, it isn't always possible to find a qigong class so the only other option is to learn it yourself through books and DVD's.
Don't be tempted to jump from one page to the next and skip a few pages of the qigong book along the way. When you look at the book with a couple of hundred pages it can be tempting to look further into the book
Once you have cleared a space in your living room or bedroom or any other room in your house where you will not be disturbed, get your qigong book ready and start following it. It may be worth using something to keep the book open and also to mark the page you are working on currently. Learning qigong (or anything else) from books is possible but it takes persistance and a level of dedication. The real benefit of working from books is that you can work at your own speed and at a time that is best for you rather than having to try and fit a qigong class into your busy work schedule. - 14130
