How should one deal with emerging thoughts while practising?
While practising Qigong a state of calmness is pursued, in which no more conscious thoughts emerge from within. In order to achieve this goal, one method is to concentrate the mind on one thing. For example one may observe the own body while exercising and doing so correct its posture.
The most natural method to deal with thoughts is to let them come and go. If one succeeds, the flood of thoughts little by little decreases. Merely by exercising one automatically achieves a state of inner peace. The advantage of this approach is, that all the processes which are being stimulated by Qigong, are happening completely natural and without being influenced by the consciousness.
