Meets Friday, 6:30-8 p.m. and Saturday, 9 a.m.-4 p.m.
If you need a reset from the chaos of our external world, this retreat will offer simple practices to take home with you. We will use techniques and concepts from the ancient practice of qigong to help release stress and anxiety, stay present and grounded, and raise our emotional frequency. Pennie will incorporate intention, breath and gentle movements to help transform and replenish your life-force energy. By stabilizing and energizing your entire Being, you increase your ability to shine your Light outward to help create the positive environment we envision. This gathering is suitable for all abilities and physical capabilities, as all movements can be done seated.
