This evening Qi Elements will provide opportunities to participate in-person and on-line. Our Wednesday 6:30 Qigong class will continue with active Qigong focusing on finishing the Bird Animal from Five Animal Sports and we will begin to introduce the exercises for the Winter Season and the Kidneys. We do one more review of Skin Breathing technique, which helps boost your immune system and your "Guardian Qi," and we will continue with movements of the Bird from Five Animal Sports.
At 7:30 we are continuing with beginner level meditation, techniques for relaxing the breath and calming the mind. We will continue to develop our practice of the Six Healing Sounds. Next week we will begin a new series with the Inner Smile sitting meditation.
There is plenty of room still in the Qigong classes and in our Thursday evening and Saturday morning (9-11 AM) Taiji classes. The topics for Taiji depend on who attends and what they need to work on. IIAM Qigong on Saturday will feature Taiji Ball Qigong. Dr. Yang says that Taiji Ball Qigong is the best Qigong he knows. You will need a ball about 8 to 12 inches in diameter.
Seasonal health tip: Now that the temperature has turned colder it is time to put away cooling foods and drinks and switch to foods and drinks that have warming or hot energy. For example, drink less green tea and more ginger and cinnamon tea. Drink plenty of water to counter the dryness of Autumn and to keep your lungs and mucus membranes moist and resistant to germs.
The Qigong classes will be live and on Zoom. If you want to join in-person, please remember to bring your mask and vaccination certificate.
If you are attending by Zoom, the log-in info is below. The Zoom class is still by donation.
