Last weekend I had the honor of teaching a Qigong workshop at our annual Wen Wu School retreat in the Redwood Grove in Ben Lomond in the Santa Cruz Mountains. I taught GRACE, aligning between Heaven and Earth, the 5 Element Tree Qigong and Dragontales Qigong. The response was very gratifying. Moving like trees in the Redwood Circle was beautiful and powerful. The photos are of the master teachers and participants. These are videos of me teaching the 5 Element Tree Qigong and demonstrating the 5 Element Qigong form. This fall I will be teaching the 5 Element Tree Qigong and 5 Elements at my Kaiser classes.

I was preparing ceramic sculptures to represent the 8 Brocades Qigong. When I opened the lid of the kiln I got quite a surprise. The perfect figures I had labored to make had exploded. Staring at them I thought it was a complete disaster. I was tempted to throw it all away. The more I looked at the broken figures, the more excited I became. I began rearranging the pieces like a puzzle into something new. Something striking and meaningful emerged. I discovered beauty and wholeness in the re-creation of my wounded figures. We all have some imperfections, many have experienced traumas, and we survived. We do the best we can. We focus on our abilities, trying not to let our disabilities rule our lives. The 8 Brocades figures have transformed into a valuable teaching tool, more powerful and useful than an art piece hanging on my wall. I believe most everyone can benefit from this gentle healing Qigong practice. Each person can modify accordingly, taking into consideration their own limitations. This practice can be done standing or seated. I hope you enjoy learning, practicing and benefiting with the 8 Brocades Qigong. 8 Brocade Qigong Practice – Each Brocade Practiced 7 Times. 1) Carrying the Heavens with both Hands 2) Supporting Sky and Pushing Earth 3) The Archer’s Bow 4) Looking behind to cure Fatique and Stress 5) Bending over, Wagging tail to calm Heart Fire 6) Reaching down to dissipate Disease 7) Punch with Angry Gaze to increase Qi 8) Shake back 7 times to eliminate Disease.

In our Qigong for Health classes I will be reintroducing a favorite traditional practice, The 8 Brocades Qigong. I have studied it several times with different teachers including a Shaolin monk. My favorite Qigong teacher for this practice is Mimi Kuo-Deemer. We will learn the 8 Brocades in class and I am sharing Mimi’s delightful video so you can practice whenever you wish. In our winter classes we will also practice Qigong with GRACE Chakra Balancing. This video is easy to follow and is a wonderful way to start your day. Wishing all of us a Happy and Healthy New Year.
