Qigong

Qigong! (pronounced chee-gong)

Oh I love it! When I practice qigong, I feel more peace and ease, and my body functions better.

What makes qigong different from some other modalities like acupuncture or reiki is that one performs qigong on or for oneself. It is not strictly-speaking possible for anyone to do qigong for you. However, qigong does not come out of thin air and our own ideas. Qigong forms have been developed and passed down in lineages over generations, based on ancient Chinese and Daoist data and observations of humans and nature.

I study primarily at the Ling Gui International Healing Qigong School now based in Portland, Oregon. The forms I teach are those they have certified me in. I also study in classes with other masters occasionally to deepen my practice and understanding.

The philosophy and mechanics of qigong come from deep expertise, and yet you should feel empowered knowing that you manage your exploration and flow of qi in your practice. I encourage you to find qigong masters to take classes with and pay attention to how you feel when you practice.

No diagnosis or treatment of any kind is offered in my classes. If you are concerned about a medical issue, you must discuss it with a healthcare provider.

Check back in October for dates and info on winter classes!
