Life is ruled by invisible forces. When the wind blows we cannot hold it in our hands — yet we feel it touch our skin. As distant as the Moon seems, its gravitational pull on Earth plays an incredible role in tide formation and movement. As the Moon pushes Earth’s shape from round to oval, we witness the the tides rise (when passing through the bulges), and fall (when passing through the low points). Energy is the same. It is intangible — yet we experience it — as it animates all parts of our being, from each movement and heartbeat to every thought and dream.
As we move more deeply into Spring, we are encompassed in a surge of naturally occurring Wood Element energy (Five Elements Theory of Chinese Medicine). Atop of the Spring transition, there is an infusion of solar eclipse energy.
The influx of eclipse frequencies (between March 25th and April 8th), are considered the most powerful of 2024 and will be felt for the next 6 months. To take full advantage of this opportunity for karmic clearing + solar reboot, we will leverage Qigong and sound meditation practices to build greater coherence in our physical, emotional and energetic bodies.
Qigong is the practice of moving life force energy (qi) via cultivated physical movement (gong). it is considered the ancient root of all Chinese Medicine practices and many branches of Qigong have developed over 5000 years.
Sound meditation is an immersive listening experience using intention and sound to clear dissonance and invite in a more peaceful, resonant state of being. For centuries, sound has been utilized by cultures around the world to bring balance and healing to the body, mind and spirit. Sound meditation utilizes specific instruments, music, tones, and other sonic vibrations. Although there is limited clinical research, recent studies have demonstrated statistically significant outcomes of stress reduction, elevated mood, decreased tension and improved spiritual wellbeing.
The very special class begins with a 20-minute Qi practice, focused on working with the Eclipse energies. Participants will then settle into a lying position for a brief guided visualization. The remainder of class is filled with meditative sound from crystal singing bowls, double gong, rain drum and chimes.
Cost: $35 per class.
