The concept of the "five elements" (wood, fire, earth, metal and water) as energetic archetypes whose cycles affect the flow of energy in our bodies, is central to ancient Chinese medicine and to its qigong health exercises. In this class we will learn movements and breath control exercises to help unblock the acupuncture meridians and bring qi (energy) to the organs associated with each element, thereby assisting the body in reaching a state of balance and harmony, both on a physical and emotional/spiritual level. The lung exercise helps ward off colds and lifts one's spirit; the stomach exercise can assist with digestive issues and relieve anxiety; the liver exercise can help alleviate irritability and pain; etc. Come learn the essence of the Five Element theory and an easy-to-learn exercise set that will help harmonize and balance your organs and accelerate your body's natural healing abilities.
