Qi Chats
•
1h 32m
The topic for this month is:
Transform - Balance the Spleen System - Let's Practice! 🌻
In this Qi Chat we will discuss:
- the spleen system according to Traditional Chinese Medicine and Qigong
- digestion and "Zhen Qi"
- the concept of 'transformation'
- the concept and practice of 'Peng'
Then we will practice the "Transform" routine together.
This routine is slow, engaging, and can really help build the Qi and Earth element. It has a very 'nourishing' feel to it - perfect for this time of year!
