Spring Qigong

Spring Qigong

Heather YogaShipley, West Yorkshire
Saturday, Apr 18 from 4:30 pm to 5:45 pm GMT+1
Overview

Join us for some relaxing and rejuvenating Qigong sessions to welcome the spring season!

Join Deborah for a seasonal qigong pop up. As we move through spring we will explore the practice relevant to the season.


Our time together will include an introduction to the season, warmups, seasonal qigong forms (movements) and meditation.


In TCM (Traditional Chinese Medicine), each of the five seasons has an associated element and an organ and meridian network that is the focus of the practice. Just as the seasons change, our lives also change. Attuning our bodies with the seasons and cultivating our own energy can help us to flow through these changes with more ease. Spring is a time of growth/planning with enhanced energy levels. An opportunity to inspire change and refresh your practice and lifestyle. It’s the season for spring cleaning your diet, mind and home.


What is Qigong (pronounced chee-gung) Qigong means cultivating life energy; qi - life energy, gong - to cultivate with time and effort.


It is a blend of active and dynamic movements, breathing, visualisation and meditation techniques aimed at cultivating healthy qi flow through the body. It has its roots in Daoism and Buddhism and is part of Traditional Chinese Medicine.


What are the benefits to practicing Qigong?

Active movements in qigong help to loosen joints, strengthen tendons and muscles, improve circulation, and relax the nervous system. These, along with the breathing and intentions of qigong practices work to create greater balance and harmony, and an overall sense of health, vitality and wellbeing.


By practicing postures, movement and meridian stretches, we can influence our vital energy or emotional state. We hold emotional stress within our bodies; yoga, qigong and meditation help to release tensions enabling you to feel lighter, and calmer, to a place of stillness and quiet.


Deborah's class is inspired by her training with Seasonal Yoga and Mimi Kuo-Deemer.


Suitable for all, can be done seated if required. Please wear comfortable clothing. No props required although you may like to practice on your mat.
