Eastern meditation techniques are a common integral part in everyday life as a means to alleviate working stress, and fostering an attentive mind. One main aim is to enable meditation practitioners to lead a more conscientious style of life. Besides Hindu meditation techniques as different styles of Yoga, Buddhist and Taoist meditation such as Qigong experiences an increasing number of practitioners in the Western hemisphere. Qigong comprises several techniques applied in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) to strengthen physical and mental health. Qigong is commonly divided into static and dynamic forms. Static forms contain meditational techniques whereas dynamic forms afford bodily movements as a tool to direct practitioners’ attention (Tsang et al., 2002; Shinnick, 2006). Research on meditative Qigong practice demonstrates beneficial effects on health (for an overview see Ng and Tsang, 2009). A beneficial influence of Qigong practice on the cardiovascular system, i.e., on blood pressure (Xu, 1994; Lee et al., 2003; Cheung et al., 2005), and electrocardiographic parameters (Lee et al., 2000, 2003) was investigated. Furthermore, Qigong meditation lead to changes in breathing frequency (Sun, 1988). Positive effects of Qigong practice on mental health could be demonstrated in major depression (Tsang et al., 2003; Wang C.W. et al., 2013; Wang F. et al., 2013; Yeung et al., 2013; Yin and Dishman, 2014; Liu et al., 2015; Martinez et al., 2015), anxiety disorders (Lee et al., 2004a,b; Abbott and Lavretsky, 2013; Chan et al., 2013), post-traumatic disorders (Grodin et al., 2008; Kim et al., 2013), in the burnout syndrome (Stenlund et al., 2009, 2012), and in tinnitus (Biesinger et al., 2010). In several studies, a stress alleviating and relaxing effect in healthy subjects (Lee et al., 2005; Posadzki et al., 2010; Terjestam et al., 2010; Glei et al., 2012; Sousa et al., 2012; Hwang et al., 2013; Shim, 2014; Wang et al., 2014) was shown.
