Creation of Radiant Lotus Qigong

Everyone has an opportunity to attain radiant health. With these techniques that international Qigong teacher and wellness coach Daisy Lee learned from over a dozen years of study with several master teachers from both east and west, Daisy has been able to design empowering self-healing programs for every age group and capability.

Radiant Lotus Qigong is derived from Daisy's Chinese name in Toisanese-Chinese "Yim Lin" (or "Yan Lian" in Mandarin) which means "Radiant Lotus" in English. Named after her Great Aunt Lin Ai ("Lotus Love"), a kung fu teacher and compassionate healer in southern China, Daisy began to fully appreciate the name her parents gave her at birth when she deepened her Qigong practice. She saw the lotus blossom rising up through stagnant, murky waters as a symbol of every individual's ability to overcome darkness and to enter into light through conscious, persistent effort to grow and overcome the inevitable challenges of life.

Radiant Lotus Qigong was created as a pathway to reach one's potential power by first attaining vibrant health, and then utilizing one's qi or life force energy to affect positive change in one's family, relationships and community. The foundation of Radiant Lotus Qigong is a philosophy of compassionate action, positive self-reflection and leading by example with gentle strength.

Founder-Instructor Bio

Daisy Lee is President of the educational non-profit, Kahuna Valley on the Hawaiian island of Kaua'i. She teaches Qigong around the world, with a focus on women and children's health and empowerment. Daisy combines practical solutions with compassionate intent to assist practitioners in overcoming health and other challenges. Her compelling teaching style has made her one of the featured instructors for Gaiam, a conscious-living/lifestyle company, and she stars on Fit TV in America with business partner and longtime friend, Francesco Garripoli. She and Francesco have won multiple instructional media awards for their easy-to-follow Qigong DVD series that has been used in schools, hospitals and prisons where stress levels are highest.

Radiant Lotus Qigong for Women

Daisy teaches a variety of Qigong styles taught to her by her master teachers from China. Her women's Qigong techniques were passed down from two different lineages in China, one from a master from Tian Shan Mountain near Tibet,

and the other from her teacher from Chengdu, China who now lives in Australia. Daisy was entrusted with sharing these techniques with women in the west in an attempt to address the varied health concerns particular to today's busy woman.

The exercises help to balance female hormones and release blocked energy, especially in the breasts and uterus areas, while at the same time increasing flexibility, strength, power and grace in practitioners. Pressure points, massage techniques, sound vibration and meditation are part of this women's health and empowerment program, along with beautiful, flowing movements that open up the body's energy channels. Daisy also includes tasty recipes from her Chinese kitchen which energize the kidneys, balance hormonal fluxes, and promotes immune support. Her teachings offer women a pathway to experiencing and realizing radiant health, inner peace, outer beauty and a positive outlook on life.

Radiant Lotus Qigong
is for Everyone

Radiant Lotus Qigong is not just for women. Daisy teaches specially designed programs for all ages and genders. Whether teaching Qigong focusing techniques at the middle school to children, stress relief techniques to caregivers at Hospice, or performance-enhancing Qigong to athletes or business people, Daisy empowers individuals to take responsibility for their own health and empowerment.

In her workshops, Daisy incorporates western concepts such as muscle testing and quantum healing techniques to reveal the power of the mind to influence physical changes and enhanced immune response. Practiced together with traditional styles of Qigong taught to her by her Chinese teachers such as:

1. Master Duan Zhi Liang (Wuji Hundun Qigong)
   

2. Master Wan Sujian (Bagua Xun Dao Gong and Medical Qigong)
   

3. Master Jiang Nan (Tibetan Qigong and Women's Qigong)
   

4. Master Zhao Shi Hua (Tiandi Qigong, Hard-style Qigong and Women's Qigong)
   

5. Master Zhi Gang Sha (Power Healing)
   

6. Madame Wang Yan (Medical Qigong)
   

7. and many others...
   

Daisy has been able to design Qigong programs that bring together the best of eastern and western healing modalities. She has taught in schools, at health and healing retreats, hospitals, hospice care facilities, corporate businesses, and seniors homes.

The Seeds of Radiant Lotus Qigong

Daisy credits her late husband, Eka Liem, with helping her discover Qigong. In an attempt to find a pro-active solution to reduce his pain from the side effects caused by chemotherapy treatment for Acute Myelogenous Leukemia (a cancer of the blood), she met her first teacher, Dr. Fred Hui who taught her a simple Qigong technique that broke up the blocked energy around his abdomen. Eka was able to eliminate morphine and codeine from his pain medications after that. Although Eka died from complications associated with treatment, Daisy realized the potential of Qigong and saw it as a positive pathway for pain reduction, immune enhancement and possible health recovery.

Her first official teacher, Dr. Effie Chow from San Francisco, taught her the effect of positive attitude on mental, emotional and immune health, and she incorporates some of Dr. Chow's muscle testing techniques in her teachings to this day.

Daisy's second husband, Francesco Garripoli, who is now her ex-husband and remains her best friend and business partner, encouraged her to explore her full potential by challenging her to grow beyond the conventions of their marriage. Through his love and support, Daisy began teaching Qigong around the world, helping students from different cultures to access a means of self-empowerment through Qigong self-cultivation.

Private Health Readings

Daisy does personal Qigong energy readings which help clients to access optimum health. Her readings show clients how they can shift their eating and thinking habits to create a healthier body, mind and spirit. She recommends individualized food modifications, often discovering food allergies or intolerances that the client didn't know he/she had. Specific Qigong exercises are prescribed that the client can do at home, as well as high potency immune supplements which support each person's unique lifestyle. These personalized health readings empower the individual with vital information to affect long-term change for the highest health and well-being.

Boosting Immunity

At least 70% of illness is caused by stress. The gentle practice of Qigong can help relieve some of that stress, but Daisy has found a groundbreaking natural supplement which has transformed many of her family, students and clients lives. Those looking for a powerful way to enhance their immune systems to defend against disease and to promote vibrant health can email Daisy for more information at radiantlotus@gmail.com.
