What brought you to qigong?

I was introduced to qigong training in 1997 in massage therapy school. Before then, I'd heard that it helped martial artists be invulnerable, strong beyond measure, able to fly. I'd also heard/read that there were magical aspects to it- psychic powers, astral travel, immortality. In massage school, I wound up liking qigong more than massage. I felt high, expanded, strong. I took workshops over the years with different teachers, but never had the discipline to practice on my own. I also had resistance to moving so slowly. It wasn't until 2012, when a romantic relationship collapsed, I was in a deep state of burnout with work and found myself in the throes of depression that I decided to throw myself into qigong. It was one of the few things that felt like a "yes", maybe only one of the few things in my life that had ever really put me in touch with my true nature. It was stepping back onto the spiritual path, loving/ putting/taking care of myself first, treating depression and habitual patterns. I did a lot of hard work and came out the other side. What brought you to qigong?
