Daoist Medical Qigong Level 1

3 Day Instructional Retreat Mar 23-25

"Medical Qigong" is a modern term that refers to the corpus of spiritual, psychological, and energetic techniques of Chinese Medicine. Classically divided into "Hands On Healing" and "Prescriptive Exercises", this discipline takes the Daoist understanding of the inner body and aims to apply it toward healing complaints and ailments.

Retreat Structure

This year you can study Daoist Energetic Healing in depth from the comfort of your home or personal retreat location.

Due to the challenges of Covid, this year we were not able to produce an in-person retreat for the public, and are only welcoming Qigong Instructor trainees to participate on-site. But that means that you can study without the added expense or stress of travel and still learn these powerful practices in an effective and inspiring fashion.

We will begin each day at 10 with group qigong practice and meditation, then move on to exploration of theory and therapeutic exercises. This is followed by medical qigong technique demonstration and treatment, then Q&A.

Afternoon sessions will follow a similar format, but ending with group practice and meditation.

Students joining online can utilize a partner to practice the two-person techniques shown, utilize the archived video at a more convenient time, or engage with the healing techniques through a unique spiritual healing meditation that Rev. Fa Jun will teach for the first time ever. All the sections on theory, prescriptive exercises, and meditation can be participated in solo.

What's included in this retreat

Students will be guided through the three main qigong sets of the Templestyle curriculum as well as various auxiliary exercises and meditations in morning and evening practice.

Qigong "Prescription Exercises" will be taught for the pathologies of the various organ meridians according to Chinese Medicine.

Students will be guided through a basic protocol for working with a partner using energetic healing methods to asses, disperse, and tonify energy in the main organs and meridians.

Finally, Q&A sessions will allow students to share their experiences, and get feedback and clarity on any aspect of their inner-arts practice!

Take your practice to the next level!

This retreat is a requirement for my qigong instructors, as it allows them to help students work through common complaints. It is also a powerful addition to the practice of any massage therapist, acupuncturist, or anyone who wants to work more consciously with subtle energy and relationship.
