Still qigong can be performed at any time, before or after-meals, in the morning or evening, or during a break at work or between classes.

5 to 10 minutes each time. It is better for beginners to practice qi guidance more, at least 5 minutes each time, until the feeling of qi has become very strong immediately after "closing" the palms.
