January 17, 2019 - 9:30am Happy New Year! This new year brings the opportunity to refresh, renew, purify, and transform your energetic body through healing qigong.
Come learn this gentle movement form of Qigong, called Sheng Zhen Qigong, with Deborah Stevenson in an eight-week series.
Committing to a full eight weeks allows you to learn the form in a progressive way, with each week building on the last. By the end of the eight weeks, you will have a good base for creating your own qigong practice at home.
What is Qigong?
Qigong means “energy in motion” and its purpose is to open and purify the heart. Sitting, standing, and lying down meditations will be introduced. Sheng Zhen Qigong promotes relaxation and stimulates circulation through the flow of chi, or life force energy. It is also good for the emotions, leading to a more balanced life. Becoming a happier person leads to a desire to care for others and the natural environment. By practicing these slow movements, one can feel the power of love and return to the natural state.
Gentle Movement Qigong features simple movements and guided meditations to invoke balance and calm. It is suitable for beginners who have an interest in meditation but “can’t sit still.” This class is perfect for seniors. Yogis and non-yogis are welcome; the form is easy to learn.
Begins Thursday, Jan. 17, 9:30-11 a.m., and runs for eight consecutive Thursdays. Offered through Carson City Yoga at the Seventh Street location: 116 E Seventh Street #4.
If you sign up for the eight-week series, you can attend the supplemental Tuesday night drop-in class at no additional cost.
