 Experimental Research in the Application of
 Qigong (Deep Breathing) Exercises to
 Restore Intelligence for Mentally Handicapped
 Children
 SUMMARY
 The Somatic Science Research Office of Yunnan University's
 Physics Department, with the support of and in coordination with
 the Department of Internal Neurological Medicine, Chengdu Military
 Distict General Hospital, has begun experimental research in
 applying Qigong exercises combined with modern physical sciences
 techniques to restore intelligence capabilities to mentally
 handicapped children of the Xin Meng School (for the mentally
 handicapped)  in Kunming's Wu Hua District.
 1. Methodology:
 a. Under the guidance of famed 1990 Nobel nominee Professor Li
 Zuoxing (phonetic transliteration) of the Physics Department of the
 University of Tennessee in the United States, using a combination
 of Qigong's principles of external Qi with modern biophysical-and
 neurological brain sciences, an apparatus to express recovery of
 brain functions was defined.
 b. Based on physiological and pathological characteristics of
 feeble-minded children, combining principles of Chinese medicine
 and Qigong, the use of solar energy for neural-intelligence
 functions was created.
 c. A combination of treatment for restoration of brain
 functions with Qigong training to restore intelligence capabilities

 of feeble-minded children. Preliminary achievements are now seen.
 2. Examples:
 Example (1): He Jie, female, age 12, third grade, I.Q. of
 46 (moderately feeble-minded). An electroencephalogram (EEG)
 revealed: seriously and extensively abnormal. Father feeble-minded;
 mother mentally deficient. Reason for ailment: hereditary.
 Before Qigong intelligence recovery therapy, she could not
 copy words from examples and failed her dictation test. She
 required more than 20-25 minutes for simple additions and
 subtractions within 10 numbers, and her mathematics grade was
 50-60.   Her verabl language score was around 40.
 After having begun therapy (three months later): she could
 write with no difficulty without any example, her dictation was
 70-80. She needed 6-8 minutes to do 20 problems in addition and
 subtraction within 20 numbers. Her mathematics grade went from the
 original 50-60 up to around 90. Her verbal rose from 40 before to
 about 70.
 Example (2). Luo Hongyan, female, age 11, third grade. I.Q. 54
 (slightly feeble-minded). Her EEG: Slightly abnormal, parents have
 normal intelligence.
 After Qigong intelligence recovery therapy began, ability to
 think logically, memory and ability to calculate all rose,
 scholastic grades went from original 60-70 to 90-100. EEG: normal.
 3. Findings
 Feeble-mndedness  (I.Q. below 70)  comes from various causes
 leading to low or arested development of brain cells in the

 cerebrum. Practical results prove that Qigong intelligence recovery
 therapy can alter the state of low functional ability of the
 cerebral brain cells of mentally handicapped children.   It only
 requires enough time for such Qigong intelligence restoration
 therapy, and the intelligence of feeble-minded children can be
 raised even to normal levels.   From now on, we shall go one step
 further in combining modern physical, biological and neural-brain
 sciences to find the mechanism and laws of Qigong intelligence
 recovery training applied to restoring the intelligence to mentally
 handicapped children, benefitting society and mankind.
 Discussion group members were mostly researchers in physics,
 the life sciences, child psychology, special education and neural-
 brain sciences, and teachers and lecturers in Qigong; but because
 of the lack of funds, further progress in such research work faces
 difficulties, and thus we plead for support.
