The good news is that it’s not hard to do and it can be engaging, comforting and fun.FREE CLASS (on zoom):This Free Introduction offers an overview and "taste" of the practices we'll learn over 12 classes. We will have an enjoyable, full practice together, and while I may need to reference the series, it will not be a 'sales pitch' at all. I hope you can join me!FROM THE SERIES DESCRIPTION (also on zoom):Winter is also a time of mystery and dreaming... The long nights and cocooning open us to Dreamtime and deeper esoteric practices. This year, we'll include Tao dream practices with our Winter Qigong and Neigong.INNER ALCHEMICAL PRACTICES: In this 12-week series we will learn (or refine and expand) the foundation Qi circulation practices of MICROCOSMIC ORBIT, the THRUSTING CHANNEL and BELT CHANNEL circulations and how to apply them to NOURISH and PROTECT our ENERGY, our KIDNEYS, and WATER ELEMENT QI — all of which are especially challenged in WINTERTIME.DREAM PRACTICES: We will also investigate Tao Deam practices to invite them into our sleep, guide them away from troubling dreams if necessary and deepen our relationship to our 'Dream Self' and the stories it conjures. We will also practice "Re-entering Dreams' and 'Dream Sharing'. during our Sundays together.Along with these Inner Alchemy practices, we will practice the Shamanic Movement Practice MYSTICAL WARRIOR QIGONG (“Mystical Warrior” is a name given to the Celestial Animals of the North… Connected to Winter and Water).STILLNESS: With these practices that resist the tendencies of Winter, we will also embrace what this time offers: Sitting in moments of quiet and stillness during or after our active practice to align with Winter’s stillness.The November 3rd Free Introductory Class offers both a “taste” of the series and a 75-minute practice drawn from the curriculum. It is not a “sales pitch” for the series and you are welcome to join even if you cannot attend the series.The Core Practice: Microcosmic Orbit, Thrusting Channels, Belt Channels and Kan & Li.Movement Qigong: Mystical Warrior QigongSmaller Practices: Shorter Practices to strengthen Kidneys, Water Element and resilience and connect with Winter’s quiet.Alchemical Practice: Dream Practices, Inviting them, Guiding them, Sharing them and Re-entering them.November 23: 7:00-8:15pm (EST/GMT -5)Free Intro Class Video: Link sent to all registrants after class.12-Week Series on Sundays:November 30 -February 15: 7:00-8:30pm (EST/GMT -5)Fee: $380Class Materials: Uploaded to Series Google Doc.Class video: Privately posted on Youtube.
