About this Event
After the darkness and stillness of winter, spring arrives once more to invite us into the light and into our next cycle of growth and expansion.....
-------------------------------------------
Join us for this uplifting Qigong session celebrating spring and the arrival of the Wood Phase.
In this two and a half hour session, we'll firstly practice some delightful spring themed Qigong movements, then we will come together to talk a little about the wood element and how it can support us in our daily lives. To complete the session I will guide a relaxation meditation session, which you can enjoy laying down, being supported by the ground beneath you.
If the weather allows, the Qigong movement practice will take place in the lovely garden area.
The theme of this session will be the wood element, which in Chinese Medicine and Qigong is the element that is associated with spring. Wood helps us to feel grounded and stable whilst simultaneoiusly encouraging us to welcome new beginnings, make plans, be confident in our growth and to open into our creativity.
With the Qigong itself we will invite and feel numerous benefits including:
- Relaxation and stress reduction
- More ease and flow in the breath and body
- Improved circulation and blood flow
- Enchanced joint mobility and flexibility
- Muscle strengthening
- Bringing our physical, mental and emotional wellbeing into harmony
This is the first in a series of five sessions being held at well-timed points through the year allowing a personal and group journey through each of the Qigong seasonal phases of Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal and Water.
Each session has been designed to be self-contained (meaning you do not have to join them all) though your experience will be enriched by joining all sessions and letting the Five Elements be a companion for you as you journey through 2026.
