June Qi Chat - Return to Center (90 mins)
Qi Chats
•
1h 31m
The Topic for this month is:
Return to Center - Finding your Balance and the Source of your Qi
In a time of uncertainty and heightened emotions it is good to feel rooted and grounded. 🗻
Imagine a tree swaying in the wind. If its roots are strong, it remains grounded and steady.
When the wind settles, the tree naturally returns to stillness - back to center.
In the same way, our Qigong practice helps us develop the ability to come back to our center, no matter what’s happening around us. 🙂
In this Qi Chat we will discuss:
- the reasons for feeling 'off centered'
- 3 really useful concepts for rediscovering your center
- a simple written exercise that will help find your source energy
Then we will practice the "Return to Center" Qigong routine all together.Â
