Abstract

The article discusses a study evaluating the feasibility and psychological effects of a structured Qigong intervention at a university in Pisa, Italy. The research involved 332 undergraduate students participating in a 12-week program that included Neidan Qigong exercises, assessing various psychological constructs such as mindfulness, stress, and emotional regulation. Preliminary findings indicated improvements in mental health and well-being among participants, suggesting Qigong as a promising low-cost intervention. The study calls for further research with more rigorous methodologies to confirm these effects and explore the physiological aspects of Qigong practice. [Extracted from the article]
