About

Re-plenish your inner landscape and precious life energy with breath, Taoist inner smile meditation, Qi healing sounds and gentle qigong movement

• A session to celebrate Spring energy with Qi practices and a ceremony. In the Taoist wisdom, spring corresponds to the Liver organ and the expansive green energies of Jupiter.

• Taoists closely observed nature and understood that different types of energy move and interact in different ways. This evolved into the 5 element principles that have correspondences in the cosmos, the planets, the Earth, nature and our human bodies. Each element relates to a body system and internal organ and corresponds with different emotions. If, under stress, emotions are repressed or expressed negatively they get held in the body and prevent healthy energy flow.

• The inner smile and healing sound meditation practices encourage energy to be cultivated and to flow, balancing the organs so that the energy of less helpful or negative emotions is transformed into natural ‘virtues’ or beneficial ones. The Qigong movements further enhance energy circulation and flow; the key principle is transforming constricting stress into vitality.

• There will be a closing ceremony honouring rocks, stones and crystals from the earth
