Why You Came Here! Cliff notes about life from Daniela
Daniela asks us to imagine that we came to Earth for two main purposes: to share our unique talents and to learn through direct experience.
Our true purpose often evolves, but its essence remains constant, centered on what naturally brings us joy and enthusiasm.
Thoughts, Feelings and Emotions - which comes first?
In this video, Daniela explains that we often don’t fully connect to the emotions we feel. She suggests noticing whether you feel agitated or content, and if agitated, tracing it back to the thought or belief causing it. Critical or judgmental thoughts often lead to tension. To better understand emotions, she suggests paying close attention to complaints and criticisms, both of yourself and others.
For Heavy Hearts 💗
A key part of the practice is a heart-centered exercise involving hand movements to circulate Chi energy. This movement, which follows the natural flow of Chi in the heart, helps to unblock stagnant energy associated with emotional heaviness.

Awaken Your Vital Energy: The Healing Power of Qigong Explained
This blog post introduces the concept of Qigong as a comprehensive practice that promotes healing and vitality in the body, mind, and emotions. It emphasizes the importance of integrating various traditions, offering Qigong in a practical form that encourages individual expression. The focus is on healing Qigong, described as a journey back to wholeness, and how its gentle movements and breathwork engage different energy centers. The practice allows participants to reconnect with their vitality, emotional balance, and clarity, helping them restore balance and cultivate inner strength.
Are ‘Chi’ and ‘The Force’ the same?
Drawing a parallel between Qigong and spirituality, Daniela recalls her early experiences of learning about the Force (as in Star Wars) and the connection to the divine in church. She explains that the energy, or "Force," described in Star Wars is similar to what is called chi (life energy) in Qigong, and what some may call God, divinity, or source energy. Through Qigong, people can feel this energy, which flows through and animates everything. Daniela critiques the idea of trying to think one's way to divinity, saying that Qigong allows people to feel the direct experience of connection to the transcendent, rather than intellectualizing it.
Activate the Inner Healer
"Activate the Inner Healer" is more than just a physical practice; it's a revolutionary approach to wellness that integrates body, mind, and spirit. It invites us to honor ourselves by dedicating time to our healing, using simple yet profound techniques that remind us of our inherent power to heal and transform. This practice leaves us feeling balanced, grateful, and ready to embrace the day with an open heart and a rejuvenated spirit, truly embodying the transformative power of Qigong.
The Spiritual Journey IS The Healing Journey
Daniela's talk focuses on the deep interconnection between spiritual growth and personal healing, emphasizing the journey of reconciling one's past and present to achieve a balanced state of neutrality and wholeness.
The Power of Direct Experiences
Daniela invites us all to be tender with ourselves as we navigate the labyrinth of human experience, embracing every layer, every emotion, and every thought as integral components of our intricate spiritual journey.
Your Entire Life is a Created Life
Daniela dives deep into the concept of an inspired life, highlighting the significance of our inner beliefs and thoughts. She explains that our choices in how we treat ourselves and others stem directly from our internal narratives.
Is Everyone Always Doing Their Very Best?
The practice of pausing and attending to sensations is described as a form of emotional weight training, increasing one's resilience and awareness. Daniela believes that honing this skill of being present with uncomfortable emotions without seeking distraction is vital for personal growth. By doing this, individuals gain access to new, healthier choices they didn't have before.
