Yong Kong blog

Yong Kong® is an innovative exercise, which is created and developed by me based on the principle of Tai Ji (Tai Chi) and Qi Kong exercises, the structure of human anatomy, and the philosophy of Dao (Tao).  Practicing Yong Kong® enhances the elastic of muscular structure, promotes all circulations of body, and maintains the balance of body and spirit.  Yong Kong® is one of the treatment methods I use to treat patients.  Not only is Yong Kong® used to treat health conditions, but also used to treat hidden health conditions.

Stress is Number One killer to our health.  When our bodies are suffering stress or pressure, either physically or mentally, short term or long term, our bodies will response automatically to that stimulation by changing the balanced conditions, especially in our endocrine system and in the neurotransmitters in our neuromuscular system.  When the changes are significant enough,  whether acute or chronic, the imbalances in our system will eventually affect our bodies’ structures and functions and cause disharmony, problems, or illnesses like tiredness, muscular soreness, post-traumatize stress disease (PTSD), insomnia, cancers, low back pain, hypertension, depression, Type II diabetes, Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD), etc.

Practicing Yong Kong® relaxes the body’s neuromuscular system from head to toes, which in turn smoothes the flow of the body’s circulation, and soothes the mind of body.  When the endocrines and the neuromuscular system conditions are changed due to stress or pressure, we need to reverse the stress condition as early as possible by consuming or burning out the extra endocrines or neurotransmitters.  In nature, when a lucky prey survives an attack, it will hide in a safe place and tremble to release, or burn out the extra endocrines or neurotransmitters.

Yong Kong® exercise, through its unique way of practicing, the slow speed of moving, and the natural sequence of forms, can calm the mind, repair the body, and then energize the body.

Cholesterol is essential to our body.  Cholesterol in our body comes from two sources.  Cholesterol is generated from our livers and also comes from our mouth – from what we eat.  Our livers can generate enough cholesterol for our body’s needs, even if we don’t eat any foods with cholesterol.  If we have so-called “high bad cholesterol” and we can’t control our eating, our physicians will prescribe medicines to suppress our liver from generating cholesterol.

The liver provides multiple functions to our body.  One is generating cholesterol; another is storing extra serum glucose (sugar) from our blood stream.  In order to lower “bad cholesterol”, we take medicines to suppress our livers from generating cholesterol.  When we say to suppress, it means we intend to disturb our liver’s generating function.  This is the reason why we need to have a blood test every three months to make sure our livers are still healthy if we take medicines to lower bad cholesterol.

Once the generating function of the liver is disturbed, will its storing function also be disturbed?  Most diabetic patients have high bad cholesterol.  Diabetes is the problem of storing blood glucose from blood stream into our body (livers are the important organ to store glucose). To control high bad cholesterol and high blood glucose, most physicians will prescribe two medicines for their patients, one for cholesterol, and one for blood glucose.  If liver function is disturbed in order to lower cholesterol, what happens to the blood glucose?  That is why the result of taking medicines is hardly satisfactory and the patients are suffering.

Since diabetes and high bad cholesterol are related to diet, how to eat right is one of the crucial solutions to reducing bad cholesterol.  Maintaining a proper exercise routine will also benefit the diabetes and high bad cholesterol.  I stopped taking medicines for diabetes and high bad cholesterol three years ago.
