PRACTICAL CHI

Practical Energy Foundations

Online Qigong Training: June 2022

This training focuses on qigong practices to awaken and develop the feeling senses to vital (life-force) energy, providing an energetic foundation to build upon.

You will learn how the breath, body and mind play a role in feeling and working with energy, both internally and externally, in a practical and tangible way.

Each session will begin with a focused 60-75 minute practice with journaling, theoretical elaboration and discussion afterwards. We will meet each week to build upon the previous week's practice.

This foundational training is suitable for beginners seeking an introduction to qigong or energy work and/or looking for tools for self-healing, and for practitioners looking to apply energy to existing practices. It also establishes a foundation for going deeper into internal alchemy work.

In this training you will learn:

How to feel and discern vital energy
