About this Event
Qigong is a holistic mind-body-spirit practice that originated in ancient China. Qi means “life-force energy, breath”; Gong means “skill, mastery”. So we could say that Qigong is the skillful practice (Gong) of gathering, circulating, and enhancing life-force energy (Qi).
A regular Qigong practice has a direct influence on our organs, cells, tissues, fluids, hormones, bone structure etc, and can be used as a powerful tool to counterbalance a world filled with emotional stress, overexertion, information overload, and general fatigue.
A Qigong practitioner utilizes various breathing techniques, posture, gentle movements, intent, and specific visualizations to cleanse, strengthen, circulate, and balance their personal life force potential expressed in the Yin and Yang energies flowing throughout the body.
The more we master the tools used in our Qigong practice, the more we are becoming aware of the energies flowing in and around our bodies. This new awareness informs us where some of the blocked energies or uncomfortable emotions might reside. Anger in the liver? Sadness, or grief in the lungs? Heaviness in the heart? We learn in Qigong how internal energies can be transformed, transmuted, and guided towards wellness and goodness.
People around the globe are taking on a regular Qigong routine because its rewards are immediate. A gentle and life-affirming modality, Qigong offers easy-to-learn techniques that help us de-stress, release tension, calm the mind, and connect to our deep personal life force reservoir and “Inner Healer” to generate a balanced and joyful feeling of well-being.
