SMALL UNIVERSE QIGONG



ONLINE ON DEMAND SELF PACED
QIGONG IMMERSION & TRAINING



What is Small Universe Qigong?



Small Universe Qigong works with the fundamental flows of energy within us, which are a reflection of the patterns we see all around us in the universe. The same intrinsic patterns of energy movement can be found at every level of existence, from galaxies, to planets, to individual organisms, and even individual cells and atoms. When we understand these flows, we can harmonize ourselves with the rhythms and patterns of nature, and find balance, health, and vitality.


In the Small Universe Qigong program you will learn four distinct but connected sets of Qigong practices (each a system of Qigong in itself) to harmonize yourself with the universal flow.



Program Summary



In the Small Universe Qigong program you will learn four distinct but connected sets of qigong practices to harmonize yourself with the universal flow. Waking the Qi, Twelve Rivers Qigong (12 organ meridians),Between Heaven and Earth (8 extraordinary meridians) and Enter The Flow.



Each of these 4 systems of QiGong exercises can be practiced on their own or together. Each practice brings balance & harmony into the next practice.Each of these practices are powerful by themselves, but when combined they form a complete harmonious system: waking the energy, flowing it through the rivers of the organ meridians where it gathers in the dantien or the ocean of qi, activating the extraordinary meridians or the currents within the ocean, sending energy out into the field and then moving it freely like clouds and rain in our everyday movements.

In addition to these sets of exercises, to round out your understanding and skills as a qigong student (or practitioner), you will also learn powerful breathing exercises for developing a complete natural breath, and a series of qigong meditations to strengthen the connection between your mind and body and your ability to direct your internal energy.



Waking the Qi



The exercises in this set ‘wake up’ our internal energy, activating the flow in preparation for other practices.



Twelve Rivers Qigong



This set works with the 12 organ meridians which flow like rivers through our bodies. Balancing these meridians balances the functions of our internal organs, and offers us deep insight into the relationship between our posture, emotions, and organ function.



Between Heaven and Earth



This set activates the 8 extraordinary meridians, the great ocean currents of energy within us. When these currents are active it makes us very stable and resilient, physically, mentally, and energetically. It also prepares us to open up our connection to the energy of Heaven and Earth so that we can let it flow through us, renewing our energy reserves and filling and strengthening our energy fields.



Enter The Flow



The exercises in this set are like working with the clouds and rain, ensuring that our energy moves smoothly to every cell of our body. We become more aware of our energy and develop habits of allowing it to flow freely in a wide variety of movements, so that every activity can become a kind of moving meditation, filled with awareness of the energy.
