Crystal Singing Bowl Meditation
with Dr. Darren Orr Saturday, April 5th - 1:15-2:45pm Join us for our monthly Meditation Class with Dr. Darren Orr, Doctor of Chinese Medicine in Medical QiGong Therapy, Daoist Priest, NCTMB/LMT Massage Therapist, Reiki and QiGong Master, Meditation teacher, Sound Healer. During the course of our life many emotional, mental and environmental factors interfere with the emotional and mental state of the body. When the body is vibrating out of tune or non-harmoniously, it is called dis-ease. The human body is the sum of many vibrations emanating from the organs, muscles and nerves. Vibrations spread in waves. There is no better medium for waves as water. The human body is 2/3 water. This makes it the perfect medium for the propagation of waves. When a singing bowl is played, they call on the body memories of original harmonic frequencies. Heart and respiratory rates change, self-healing powers are activated and the immune system strengthened. The sound and vibrations emanating from the bowls re-tune the listener’s body by opening, clearing and rebalancing the 7 chakras, 20 meridians and 365 acu-points. When the body is vibrating in harmony with the whole, it is in a state of homeostasis, or sound health. Participants are encouraged to wear comfortable clothing and bring pillows or any other items to enhance your own level of relaxation. All levels are welcome. $30. |

Qi Gong
with Dr. Darren Orr Saturday, April 5th - 3:15-4:45pm Medical QiGong is the ancient art and science of cultivating and balancing one’s life force energy or Qi (chee) for health, healing and well-being.

By calming the mind, QiGong allows you to increase stamina, balance, flexibility, vitality, relaxation, blood circulation, immune function and overall quality of life, then the natural self-healing ability of the body is activated and accelerated. QiGong is the foundation of Chinese Medicine, art, philosophy, culture and the martial arts. It is sometimes called acupuncture without the needles, Chinese yoga or meditation in motion. Qigong is the medicine, while Tai chi is a martial art. Qigong has all, if not more benefit, than Acupuncture and Tai chi because it’s much simpler and easier to learn and can be done seated in a chair, standing or even lying down.

Yin + Pin: A Yoga and Acupuncture Workshop
with Abrianna Rossi & Katie Us Friday, May 15th - 1:30-3:30pm Yin + Pin is the harmonious marriage of yin yoga and acupuncture, both of which work on the energetic channels of the body. This workshop strives to improve the flow of energy in these channels while creating space in your body at the same time. During this 2 hour workshop, Abrianna will guide you through a slowed-down yin yoga practice - by holding poses for 2-8 minutes, time and gravity will allow you to deepen your stretch, elongate your fascia and release your ligaments. Yin invites what is in the shadows – our thoughts, emotions, and feelings - to the surface where we can acknowledge and observe them on a physical level. We will end with an extra-long savasana where Katie will use acupuncture points to complement the yoga practice, encourage continued energy flow throughout the body, and promote deep relaxation (snoring is encouraged). You will leave this workshop feeling like a new person! Please arrive 10 minutes early to grab your spot. We will begin with a short meditation to calm the nervous system, flow through our yoga poses, and the last thirty minutes will be savasana with 3-6 pins. 8 yogi min, 20 max. $60 |
