Description of classes - 'RENEWAL'
'Remember, Reconnect, Reclaim YOU'
A series of FREE workshops commencing September 20th 2024.
Qigong is an ancient evolving practise, beneficial for all, that includes healing postures, movement, self-massage, breathing techniques, visualisation and meditation.
An holistic system of health, qigong is enjoyable to do, believed to increase longevity, and induces calm mental and emotional states.
Writing is another healthy self-care practice, and scientific studies have shown that a regular writing practice can improve physical, mental, and emotional health in dramatic ways.
Qigong & Taiji practises focus on cultivating alignment and harmonious energy flow.
Proper alignment is the cornerstone of health.
‘When you stand with your two feet on the ground, you will always keep your balance’ Lao Tzu
“When you know that this moment is the Tao, and this moment is considered by itself without past and without future—eternal, neither coming into being nor going out of being—there is nirvana.”
Alan Watts author and speaker.
BENEFITS:
Alignment in mind, body and spirit
Enhanced physical health and posture
Sharper mental focus and reduced stress
Increased energy and emotional stability
A profound connection to the body and an overall sense of well-being
TESTIMONIALS
"Susan's Qigong classes have become an important and valued part of my week, a place for calm and restoring reflection".
"Susan's teaching style is calm and measured. She explains clearly, and if she interjects in an exercise, it is with a turn of phrase that is illuminating and lights up the exercise from a different angle. She gives out warmth and encouragement .......... You feel that you are travelling together on this journey".
"The writing and prompt questions encouraged me to build a different relationship and awareness of my body and what was going on inside it. I noticed feelings and sensations and gradually made small but significant adaptations to my life long habits. I felt taller, walking more freely and sitting up. This could lift my mood and rejuvenate me which was helpful on grey, wet days".
"It's like I met myself for the first time! I'm building a deeper relationship with myself and as I continue to learn/practise, I'm becoming more aware of my thoughts, emotions and physical sensations. The more present I am, the more I can feel the flow of energy".
"Taking a little time to intentionally reflect on yourself and your body motions can create a certain calm energy that puts you in good stead to face all else ahead".
"The relaxation the exercises produce. The physical and gentle stretching. The fact that I can do it......... This may sound minor but I don't think it is. The support, diligence and kindness of the teach, Susan".
"Definitely becoime more calm, I can control my emotions, and able to have my space".
"The joy and sense of achievement I've felt throughout the course".
