Description:
Health in our body and clarity in our meditation increases as energy flows more freely through the spine. In this day retreat, we’ll learn five simple qigong movements that awaken energetic wholeness in the spine and the entire body.
We will experience how awakening the spine through qigong is a valuable support and complement to mindfulness meditation.
These qigong practices release spinal stagnation and open a profound circulation of energy. This promotes health and wellbeing in body and mind.
Qigong and meditation bring a bright wakefulness and concentrated, embodied presence that help us discover who we are beyond our stories.
Teachings are appropriate for individuals as well as health care professionals. Health care professionals will be able to incorporate the tools and practices offered in this program in ways beneficial to clients or patients. Continuing Education (CE) credit available.
