My martial arts experience

Moin – I am Diana Huth – Psychologist, (Stress-Management) Coach, human.

My father has been fascinated by Shaolin since I can think. And he taught my the basics when I was little.

In 2012 I started to train with my first master "Shifu" (Shi Yan Rui) at Shaolin Cultural Center Bielefeld (closed by now). He also took me on my first journey to China, to visit the original Shaolin Tempel in Henan, China.

Since 2013, I have been practicing with Shi Yan Lei (London) – with his online videos and in person.

In 2019, I started to train regularly with Shi Yan Xin and the "Kung Fu Family" of Kungfu.life – I love our "Kung Fu parties" on Mondays.

Since 2020 I have been practicing with Shi Yanjun. He certified me as an instructor for qigong and taiji and I am part of his Online Apprenticeship Programs. I am also supporting him as a team member on retreats. We regularly practice in person, on international retreats and at his school in China.

Let's go.

Start into a healthier and more relaxed life – maybe even supported by your health insurance.

Holistic Wellness

05 Benefits of Holistic Wellness for a Balanced Life

January 24, 20253 min read

Holistic wellness is more than just a health trend—it's a lifestyle that emphasizes balance across the mind, body, and spirit. By addressing health from a whole-person perspective, holistic wellness helps individuals achieve lasting harmony and vitality. Let’s dive into the key benefits of holistic wellness and how it can transform your life.

1. Improved Mental Clarity and Emotional Stability

05 Benefits of Holistic Wellness for a Balanced Life

Holistic wellness practices, such as meditation, mindfulness, and yoga, play a vital role in enhancing mental clarity and emotional balance. These practices help quiet the mind, allowing you to focus better and stay present. By reducing stress and anxiety, they create space for better decision-making and emotional stability. For instance, regular meditation trains your mind to handle overwhelming situations calmly, while journaling helps process emotions constructively. When you nurture your mental health, you build resilience, enabling you to face life’s challenges with greater confidence and optimism. Over time, these habits lead to a more peaceful and focused state of mind.

2. Strengthened Immune System

Your immune system is your body’s first line of defense, and holistic wellness directly supports its strength. By consuming a balanced diet rich in whole foods, vitamins, and natural supplements, you can boost your body’s ability to fight illnesses. Practices like yoga and walking also play a significant role, as they improve blood circulation, reduce inflammation, and enhance overall body functionality. Additionally, focusing on gut health with probiotic-rich foods fosters a strong internal defense system. Holistic wellness ensures that the immune system is not just reactive but proactive, protecting you from chronic illnesses and seasonal sicknesses.

3. Reduced Stress Levels

Prevents Chronic Illnesses: Focuses on early detection and prevention of conditions like diabetes, hypertension, and heart disease through balanced diet, exercise, and stress management.

In today’s fast-paced world, stress can take a toll on both the mind and body. Holistic wellness provides natural and effective ways to manage stress without relying on medications. Techniques like deep breathing exercises, progressive muscle relaxation, and journaling work wonders in calming the nervous system. Spending time outdoors, whether in a park or garden, has a grounding effect, connecting you to nature and reducing anxiety. These practices shift your focus from overthinking to appreciating the present moment. Over time, adopting stress-reduction strategies helps you build a sense of calm and enhances overall well-being.

4. Deeper Connection with Yourself

Holistic wellness is not just about physical health; it’s also about fostering a connection with your inner self. Practices like meditation, prayer, or spending quiet moments alone allow you to reflect on your thoughts and feelings. This connection helps you understand your values, passions, and life’s purpose more deeply. By nurturing your spirit, you develop a greater sense of self-awareness and gratitude. Surrounding yourself with supportive communities further enhances this connection, as shared values and encouragement inspire growth. This deeper connection helps you live authentically, aligned with your true self.

5. Prevention of Chronic Illnesses

  • Prevents Chronic Illnesses: Focuses on early detection and prevention of conditions like diabetes, hypertension, and heart disease through balanced diet, exercise, and stress management.

  • Addresses Root Causes: Identifies the underlying causes of health issues rather than just treating symptoms.

  • Incorporates Anti-Inflammatory Foods: Adds foods like turmeric and ginger to combat inflammation, a common trigger for chronic diseases.

  • Strengthens the Body Naturally: Regular physical activity and mindfulness enhance the body’s natural defense against long-term ailments.

What is Qigong Ba Duan Jin (Eight Treasures)?

What are the health benefits of Ba Duan Jin Qigong?

Regular practice of Ba Duan Jin can support:

- reduced stress and tension

- improved posture and joint mobility

- better breathing and circulation

- increased body awareness and energy

- overall physical and mental balance

What does “Tai Chi Basics” mean in a preventive course?

Tai Chi Basics focuses on foundational Tai Chi principles such as posture, balance, coordination, and mindful movement. The emphasis is on health, stress reduction, and functional movement rather than martial application.

Are these courses suitable for stress management?

Yes. Both Qigong and Tai Chi are widely used for stress management. The slow movements, breathing awareness, and mindful attention help regulate the nervous system and support mental resilience.

Are the preventive courses beginner-friendly?

Absolutely. These courses are designed for beginners and do not require prior experience in martial arts, Qigong, or Tai Chi. Movements are taught step by step and adapted to individual needs.

Can German statutory health insurance reimburse the course costs?

Yes. Preventive courses can be reimbursed by German statutory health insurance providers (gesetzliche Krankenkassen) — often up to 100% of the course fee, depending on the insurer.

How does reimbursement work?

Participants usually pay the course fee upfront and receive a certificate of participation after completing the course. This certificate can then be submitted to the health insurance provider for reimbursement. Please double check if and how much of the costs might be reimbursed before you book.

What makes these courses different from regular fitness classes?

Preventive health courses focus on long-term health, stress regulation, and sustainable movement habits rather than performance or intensity. They are grounded in traditional practices and modern health psychology.

Do I need special equipment?

No special equipment is required. Comfortable clothing and enough space to move freely are sufficient.

How soon can I notice benefits?

Some people notice increased relaxation and body awareness after just a few sessions. Long-term benefits develop with regular practice.
