Join us for the opportunity to integrate conscious breathwork and restorative movements while being bathed in the soothing sounds and vibrations of Tibetan singing bowls. The body is a vessel of all life experiences and personal stories. Movement therapy deepens a person’s quality relationship with their own physical, mental and emotional wellbeing. Qigong is a movement therapy that dates back thousands of years and is rooted in ancient Chinese medicine. Qigong brings awareness to the breath, postural alignment and intention to optimize energy flow throughout the body. The sound of Tibetan singing bowls vibrationally harmonize to promote deep relaxation on both sides of the brain.
