Qi Gong ("working the life force energy") brings together many complex spiritual practices into a simple, accessible toolset. In this 2-hour introductory workshop, participants will explore fundamental Qi Gong movements and breathing techniques while learning about the philosophy that underlies this ancient practice. We'll discuss how Qi Gong complements other spiritual traditions and examine some of its more advanced concepts. The workshop balances theory with hands-on practice, ensuring everyone leaves with practical tools they can incorporate into daily life. Whether you're new to energy work or experienced in other modalities, this workshop offers valuable insights into working with qi.
