I have been doing an hour a day of qigong for a while (usually 30 minutes of La Qi, and 30 minutes of Lift Qi Up Pour Qi Down... Both from Zhineng Qigong). I have experienced a lot of emotional releases; usually, they last a few days, and it seems to get out of my system. However, for the last 4 weeks, I have been having a lot of extreme sleepiness and sometimes some nausea. I find myself sleeping 9-12 hours a night, then needing a 3-4 hour nap during the day, and I STILL have short bouts of extreme tiredness. It is hard to know what is going on. I want to believe it is just a healing reaction, but I'm still relatively new to consistent practice (2 months so far).
So, extreme tiredness for about 4 weeks now. Unsure if it is a qi reaction or how long I should expect it to last. Any advice/insight is appreciated.
