Why so many wellness programmes don’t work

No clear structure

People are left to figure things out on their own, without a programme to follow or a clear learning path.

No visible progress

Without simple ways to track improvement, it’s hard to stay motivated or know if anything is working.

No Ongoing Support

When there isn't feedback, encouragement and guidance from a community, it’s difficult to keep going.

What people say about Balancd™

“I found that Baduanjin Qigong is very easy to learn, facilitates deep breathing, and is a very good stretching exercise. I have arranged Baduanjin lessons for my staff, which I know will promote good physical and mental health, clear thinking and efficiency at work.”

Peter

CEO

“I often get neck pain from using my iPad for long periods. Practising the fourth Baduanjin movement helped loosen my neck and feel more comfortable.”

At NGO

“With my busy schedule, I find that these exercises are an extremely efficient use of time… Qigong exercises are now part of my marathon training… I’ve improved by 20.5cm!”
