Where Yoga Flow and Qigong Meet: The Dance of Heaven and Earth
October 19th, North Hampton, NH
October 20th, Hingham, MA
When the body flows like running water, it is always renewed, always fresh. This is true freedom.
Yoga and Qigong are paths up the same mountain, from which the “one moon” of higher consciousness can be experienced in its full brilliance. Cultivate strength and flexibility with yoga and suppleness with Qigong to create a unified practice that balances yin and yang, heaven and earth, sun and moon, male and female.
In this workshop, we will explore the Taoist concept of “effortless flow” in Qigong exercises and then bring the same ease of motion into sequences from Yoga of Energy Flow. While the movements in both forms are graceful and gentle, the effects are powerful, detoxifying the body while increasing strength, flexibility, and peace of mind.
You will learn the following:
• Breathing exercises to enhance life energy
• The Eight Brocades, Swimming Dragon, and other Qigong practices to open the meridians
• Meditative flow in yoga sequences
• Tapping to open up the 14 meridians, 6 energy gates, and 3 energy centers
• Concentration techniques for mental clarity
