Join Lori on Thursday mornings for Qigong @ 6 am.
Rooted in Daoist philosophy, traditional Chinese Medicine, and martial arts, Qigong (pronounced chee-gong) can be translated as energy cultivation. The word Qi refers to the vital, animating force that flows through and connects all living things, while Gong means skill or cultivation — thus, Qigong is the practice of refining and balancing life energy.
Through gentle movement, mindful breathing, meditation, visualization, healing sounds, and self-massage, Qigong harmonizes the flow of energy throughout the mind and body. These practices nurture physical vitality, emotional balance, and mental clarity, creating mind-body integration and deep relaxation. In this class, participants will learn breathing techniques, visualization, and self-massage, along with foundational Daoist Qigong forms including: The Eight Pieces of Brocade (Ba Duan Jin) – general health exercises to enhance strength, flexibility, and overall energy flow. and The Six Healing Sounds (Liu Zi Jue) – vocal and breath techniques designed to balance the internal organs and release stagnant energy.
