Can qigong aide Lung cancer patients?

Is there any way qigong can help with lung cancer as far as curing it and/or easing quality of life and symptoms? Are their any specific practices that focus on healing the lungs?

Can someone explain my experience?

So I’m somewhat new to meditation, I have known and practiced it for years however very inconsistently. However as of a few weeks ago I started meditating more seriously.

So tonight I sat down to meditate and today has been an amazing day, and I get into like no longer than 30 seconds of meditating and I start tearing up and crying but in a joyful way. It caught me off guard so I opened my eyes and started questioning what was happening.

Idk how or what that was, when I was meditating, what I tend to do is focus on my sense of hearing and my breathing both combined. I also do throat breathing, I read somewhere that it can help direct the energy (qi?) in your body, and I do feel that for sure.

But the experience was so short and happened so fast idk what caused it. Right before the meditation I was talking to myself about how much I am grateful for my life, and I tend to do that often. However this time after coming back from vacation I feel like a whole new person in the exact way I wanted to be. Idk how to explain it I guess its too personal.

But if anyone can explain my experience that would be very much appreciated.

Can anyone explain my experience

The other night right before sleep I was meditating in my bed on my back and I was doing the microcosmic orbit, which is a qigong technique that i spam at random points in my day, and i wasnt that long into meditation and i started to feel energy or like a sticky magnetic sensation going over my face and behind my eyes i can see like a white light moving where the sensations were going.

Then it went way and immediately after that i had a spur of purple abstract lights moving around and they were illuminating like a psychedelic imagery in the background. I do have very mild HPPD from semi consistent acid use so that could be why I saw that but it was way more pronounced like i was actually tripping on acid.

Then my body got a lil numb and i got a really uncomfortable sensation on my face so i move to scratch it and it goes away still with my eyes closed.

It felt like i was on psychedelics in that meditation and it came on so quickly and I never had a “mystical” or very visionary experience from meditation, I’ve been meditating for like a year now but inconsistently and usually not that long.
