RESTORATIVE QIGONG WINTER IMMERSION - NOURISHING THE WATER ELEMENT TO RESTORE VITALITY

The 'Water Element' in Chinese Medicine terms houses 'Essence' - which is fundamentally your vitality & life force energy. You may have heard it termed as 'original essence' or 'Jing'. This is the energy the body needs to be strong & to move through the cycle of the year in health amidst all the seasonal influences. Essence is established in Winter & by the actions of the Water Element internally in the functions of our kidneys, bones, sexual organs & hormones. Winter is the resonant season to tend to the Water Element & its organ systems - a natural time to rest & draw inward for renewal & restoration.

This class will focus on practices for building & nourishing your vital energy.

Winter is the time for REST-oration, to counter the habitual tensions humans primarily reside in.
Nature teaches us Winter is a time for focussing inward & consolidating our essential energy.
Water Element Qigong practices support deep healing, as well as balance & renewal of vitality as we release patterns of physical & emotional depletion.
Restorative in name & nature, the result of this Qigong is deep relaxation & renewal.

Cultivation and preservation of Jing is one of the keys to longevity. This Qigong stimulates energy flow to the kidneys, spine, sexual organs & bones. With these practices we can build our capacity to retain & foster our life force energy.
