Description

Come to this Abdominal Healing Qigong residential retreat and experience Zen temple life in the heart of San Francisco!

Our abdomen can be considered our second brain; it is where we store our emotions and memories, and is also our reservoir of Qi. From ancient times, many traditions have had practicies to ensure that our abdomen is clear of congestion and has optimal Qi flow for both healing and the prevention of diseases. According to Chinese Medicine’s Five Element Theory, there are sounds associated with our vital organs which can be used for healing the emotions and restoring the energy to our organs.

Join us for a 4-day residential retreat where we will immerse ourselves in the healing sounds of Heavenly Essence Qigong’s Liu Zi Jue (Six Healing Sounds), as well as an Abdominal Sound Massage routine.

No previous experience necessary.
