The Flow of Yin and Yang - Let's Practice!
One of the most interesting concepts in Qigong is Yin and Yang. Quite often, we think of it simply as the idea of balance, but there is so much more to this ancient principle.
Understanding Yin and Yang can enrich both your Qigong practice and your everyday life!
In this live Qi Chat, we will explore:
- Yin and Yang theory and the Taiji symbol ☯️
- Balance vs. Flow
- The concept of integration
- How Yin and Yang is especially relevant in today's world
- How Yin and Yang theory can deepen your Qigong practice and help you feel more Flow in everyday life!
