Nervous System Renewal: The Qigong Way
Breathwork, movement and meditation for balance, vitality and calm - Tools your brain, body and spirit will thank you for.
Overview
Begin the year with a nourishing day of embodied practice designed to restore balance, vitality and calm.Through guided breathwork, Qigong movement and stillness practices, you’ll discover how ancient wisdom and modern science meet in the art of nervous system renewal.
You may attend the morning workshop only or enjoy the full-day immersion for a deeper experience.
Option 1 — Morning Workshop (10 am – 12:30 pm)
Regulating from Within: The Breathwork Immersion
Learn how breath influences your nervous system and overall energy.
This experiential session includes:
Breath awareness and posture alignment
Evidence-informed breathing techniques shown to calm the autonomic nervous system and improve vagal regulation
Qigong breathwork sequences including Lung Qigong, Wu Ji Breath and Primordial Breath
Calming, slow Qigong movements deeply aligned with breath rhythm
Guided relaxation and reflection to close

Option 2 — Full-Day Immersion (10 am – 4 pm)
From Stillness to Flow: Applying Qigong for Regulation
Continue after lunch for the afternoon integration of movement and mindfulness.
Standing alignment (Zhan Zhuang) and spinal flow

Progressive sequence linking breath, movement and awareness
Closing meditation and Qi gathering to seal renewal
