Study on the effects on health and an appeal 健康効果の研究とアピール
Morihei himself spoke of the health benefits of aikido using unique religious expressions , saying that ' aikido is a " misogi " that removes the " impurities " from the body by improving the blood circulation , correcting the bone structure and adjusting the flow of " qi " in the body through moderate exercise .' 盛平自身、折りあるごとに、「合気道は適度な運動で血行を改善し、骨格を矯正し、体内の“気”の流れを整えることで身体の“穢れ”をはらう“禊ぎ”である」…等と独自の宗教的表現で、合気道の健康効果について述べている。
