Damo Mitchell – Internal Arts Academy – Qi Gong Deviation

Qi Gong Deviation: Diagnosis & Treatment of Energetic Imbalances is a rare and essential deep dive into one of the lesser-understood, yet critically important, topics in internal cultivation: the energetic dysfunction known as Qi Gong Deviation.

Taught by internationally respected teacher Damo Mitchell, this 19-lesson, 11.5-hour course, recorded in 2020, provides a detailed and systematic breakdown of how improper or unbalanced internal practice—whether in Qi Gong, meditation, or even yoga—can lead to serious energetic side effects. These disruptions, if left untreated, can result in long-term physical, emotional, or psychological issues.

This course covers:

The definition and scope of Qi Gong Deviation (often misunderstood or underdiagnosed)

The organ systems and meridians most commonly impacted by improper internal training

The energetic causes and patterns behind specific deviation syndromes

Preventive strategies for avoiding deviation in personal practice

Remedial techniques and treatment frameworks grounded in Chinese medicine and Nei Gong principles

Designed for both:

Energy cultivators looking to refine their personal practice with safety and longevity in mind, and

Practitioners of Traditional Chinese Medicine seeking to understand how to diagnose and support clients suffering from energy-related disorders,

this course offers life-changing insight into the risks and recovery paths of energy work gone wrong.

Through a mix of clear theory, real-world case studies, and energetic models, Damo walks students through the complex but critical territory of what happens when energy moves in the wrong way, gets stuck, or over-activates parts of the subtle body before it’s ready. You’ll gain the tools to not only identify these patterns but also reverse them through effective intervention.

Highlights Include:

19 expert-led video lessons totaling over 11 hours of in-depth content

Exploration of specific Qi Gong deviation types, symptoms, and energetic signatures

Instruction on safe practice principles to avoid energetic imbalance
