Qigong - A Somatic Approach to Movement Meditation with Melissa Forester

Using movement awareness and tissue preparation exercises, we will prepare the structure such that the energy body naturally awakens, purifies, organizes, and contains.

Creating this vessel will enable an approach to energetic meditation which will lead to insight and a clarity of thought and action.
