Qi Gong at the Flagstaff Yoga Festival in Flagstaff, AZ July 30, 31 and August 1.
There will be TWO Qi Gong presenters spreading the knowledge and power of Qi Gong to the Yoga community this year at the Flagstaff Yoga Festival in Flagstaff, AZ July 30, 31 and August 1. This is a natural “fit” since Qi Gong is often referred to as “Chinese Yoga”.
I have practiced Yoga 20 years longer than I have practiced Qi Gong and find that they compliment each other. My experience with my Yoga practice was that I could never get totally out of my “head” and let the asana “be”. I would always be trying to make a correction, get additional extension or rotation. With my Qi Gong 18 Style practice, I am able to simply BE. Many days I will come to the end of the ritual practice and not be consciously aware of having done some of the movements; however, when I checked the clock, the ritual has taken the usual 20 minutes so I must have done it all! This ability to truly ‘let go’ has opened my consciousness to many inspirations and revelations that help me be more of who I truly am–to be in the present.
If you are thinking of treating yourself to a special vacation this year, check out Northern Arizona, the Flagstaff Yoga Festival, and the Qi Gong workshops. We would love to see you there!
