Your best bet is to try and to find a good Qi Gong teacher where you are. Qi Gong, though generally regarded as an exercise, is taken very seriously in China, especially when dealing with some of the more advanced types of Qi Gong where one epecifially works on Qi flow in targeted meridians. Unsupervised Qi Gong has the potential of unbalancing the body and causing some ill side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, distension, shaking, etc., if not properly guided and supervised.
