The Open Hearth

Qigong is an awesome tool for self-healing!

Qigong (pronounced chee-gung) is an ancient Taoist movement and healing practice rooted in Chinese medicine.

Qigong can be translated as "being skillful with our life energy."

Qigong is a great way to drop into the NOW, release stress and tension, and increase relaxation, immunity and vitality.

When we relax, we get out of "fight or flight" and allow our autonomic (automatic) nervous system to take over...when this happens, healing happens!

Qigong practice includes conscious breathing, activation of chi, stretching, flowing movements, meditation and more.
