Min Jie Qi Gong and Stone Needle Therapy for Self-Healing
Foundations 1
The Way of Water
April 11/12/13
May 9/10/11
Truckee, California
Our Foundations 1 course takes place over two weekends with time between classes to experiment with and deepen our practice. We focus on Min Jie Qi Gong basics in our first class, go deeper into embodying what we’ve learned for five weeks on our own, and then return for the second weekend to consolidate this material and begin to learn and practice Min Jie Stone Needle Therapy...
- Min Jie Qi Gong and Stone Needle Therapy are designed to help us build and maintain the strongest possible foundation for our self-healing.
- These are original practices that reach all the way back to the roots of medicine and our primal connections with the heavens, the earth and each other.
- Min Jie Qi Gong is a synthesis of core dynamic principles from traditional Chinese medicine and other martial disciplines all focused to develop our self-healing.
- Min Jie Stone Needle Therapy is a resurrection of the earliest form of acupuncture that was used during Paleolithic times. It powerfully activates the Wei qi, or protective qi, to come to the surface of the body to both activate and consolidate our acupuncture channels and promote whole-body healing.
- Min Jie techniques give us the structure for a long, fertile and enjoyable life of self-healing, practice and development.
- Easy to learn, easy to practice and completely safe.
- A perfect complement for today’s busy lifestyles and daily demands.
- Small group size assures personal attention and instruction.
- Suitable for serious students of any age or ability.
