To maximize the time and energy devoted to any qigong practice, over and above physical and structural components, proper execution and pacing will determine the effectiveness of the exercise. Much in the same way that a piece of music once physically learned, needs to be performed at the proper tempo with the proper articulation and expressions for the ‘music’ to flow, the same holds true with qigong. Whether prescribed as homework for a treatment, or if you want to take your��routines to a deeper level, proper pacing is the key that will unlock the mystery and reveal the true benefits. As practitioners, the therapeutic focus and utilization of the specific components of the routines along with understanding and being able to share this information while combining tailored calibration and entrainment will ensure maximal benefits. The three qigong routines to be taught: Sun & Moon, Golden Ball and The Eight Rotations, in addition to providing specifics��for acupuncture treatments, offer a wonderful opportunity for people of all levels of interest and experience to expand their qigong repertoire.�� ��

The workshop will consist of lecture/discussion, exercises, and Qigong sets designed specifically to reconnect and enhance neurological health and activities.

Join Mark R. Reinhart as he presents his unique approach to awakening and restoring optimal neurological function. These practices can enhance your daily activities and deepen you meditation practice.

As children, we spent our days playing, running, engaging in all sorts of activities and adventures that entailed using all aspects of our bodies. But as we age, we tend to engage in far fewer activities and therefore many of our abilities begin to diminish. This can result in many of our neurological connections to, in effect, become stale. It’s not that we can’t perform these tasks, it’s that our bodies have simply forgotten how to perform them.

IN-PERSON or LIVE STREAMING

Intrinsic with��the study of Classical Chinese medicine is the discussion of the Ling��hun and Ling po. While the hun and po are often translated as the ethereal and corporeal soul and are said to reside in the Liver and Lungs respectively, there is little else that has been taught about these entities. Usually relegated to Chinese spiritual or religious cultural aspects, students of Chinese medicine rarely get the opportunity to understand their role in clinical practice, even though there is some inference to��their significance in acupuncture point names. Some of their attributes have been the hun and its relationship to sleep, memory, and dreams, while the po has been implicated in fertility, death and dying, and even qigong. ��In addition, as “spiritual” components of the Ling-soul, they are intricately related to the Shen-spirit and clinically implicated with psychological and mental illnesses.��This seminar will explore, examine,��and discuss the different aspects of the hun and po from the influence of Daoism on Chinese medicine. More importantly, the clinical application of utilizing the revelations invoked from accessing the hun and po for therapeutic treatment of learning disabilities, loss of memory, depression, insomnia, and other psycho-mental issues.
