Exploring the 5 Elements Through Kundalini Yoga and Qigong Practices
Deep diving into the Fire Element – Let Joy move through you!
In this workshop you will learn a unique perspective on the Fire element that combines Five Element theory with yogic principles.
Joy is your birthright. But most people don’t really know how joy feels because they experience it so infrequently. What if you could allow yourself to BE joy routinely? Fire, when balanced, knows when to be vulnerable and when to protect. Too many people walk around with gates up around their hearts protecting it, but that just keeps them from feeling joy. In this workshop you’ll be guided to connect to your joy and to your heart to explore this.
Fire burns. Fire heats. Fire transforms and transmutes. Fire destroys.
What is it that you wish to transform and transmute? Summer is the perfect time to explore this as you’re working with the heat from the earth.
When your fire element and energy is balanced, discernment also comes easily. We’ll be discussing the concept of discernment and how honing that skill creates ease and flow in your life that joy will again naturally flow.
This workshop will give you a chance to connect in with your untapped joy through embodiment techniques designed to help you burn away all that has been keeping you from your joy including movement, breathwork, and sound in a non-judgmental and loving space.
What are the 5 Elements?
In Chinese Medicine theory the five elements are used to diagnose, treat, and understand symptoms. The five elements are Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal, and Water. Each element is associated with organs, emotions, colors, seasons, and tastes.
The elements are used to create a framework for how nature and the body relate. The elements are used to understand why people do certain things and have certain symptoms.
There are many correlations between Chinese Medicine theory and yogic theories and Dr. Julie has been continually fascinated by them since diving into Kundalini Yoga in 2019. She loves interweaving the spiritual practices of Qigong and Chinese Medicine with Kundalini Yoga in these embodiment workshops for her students. Based on her own practice and that which she has witnessed in her students, this embodiment work combining them allows one to go even deeper into their body more quickly than either one of the modalities on their own.
Dr. Julie Hutsell-Starling is an acupuncturist, health coach, Qigong instructor, and Kundalini yoga teacher, and has spent the last 20+ years exploring the power of the mind-body connection and the power to heal ourselves. She considers herself a Way-Shower, guiding her clients and students back home to who they truly are. She has been working with private clients and acupuncture patients since 2003, and has worked with thousands of individuals over the years.
She creates and teaches embodiment workshops to allow for deep healing to happen through the body. These workshops include physical practices such as breathwork, mindful movement (Qigong and Kundalini yoga), chanting, and meditation, with music and sound healing expertly woven to create unique, deeply healing, and transformative experiences.
