Chi Kung – Aligning with the Nature Field

In this nature field in which we live, our three dimensional reality, the mind/body vessel is the receiver/transmitter/transformer through which our spiritual essence ultimately translates into our worldly experience.  Our mind/body conducts and directs this energy both consciously and subconsciously to create our reality.

The better our alignment with the nature field, the more healthy and powerful we are and the more effectively and efficiently we can express this creative force.

In order for us to achieve this ability, this program will:

Help develop an understanding of the principles upon which our bodies and the nature field function. This will serve as a guiding framework with which to base our thoughts and actions, eventually reprogramming ourselves so that these behaviors can be incorporated into our everyday lives, allowing us to take full advantage of the organization and perfection of this energetic grid.

Provide tools in the form of basic focuses and exercises that will produce alignment and power in our physical, mental, emotional and energy bodies.  These include Chi Kung and other techniques of Taoist Yoga and Chinese medicine (all part of the ancient Chinese philosophy and practice of health creation, eventually leading to enlightenment.), and other meditation and mindfulness activities.This workshop is simple and straightforward. No experience necessary. Our focus will be on building foundational health (wholeness) so that this system can be used as a primary health care program or be a supplement to your already existing regimen.
