Qi Gong and Mindfulness Workshop with Dr. Scott Greenapple
2021-06-09 17:30 - 19:00 UTC | Thrive Multipurpose Room
Qi Gong is a combination of movement, breath techniques, postures, and Mindfulness Meditation.

Also known as movement meditation or as Harvard has called it “Movement Medication”. Qi means “Lifeforce, vital energy, breath”. Gong means “cultivation or work”.

So, Qi Gong can be translated as “mastering your vital energy” to open the most profound medicine found within your own body.

Most if not all of the benefits of Qi Gong and movement meditations are centered around cultivating our own mind/body and spirit allowing the body to self-regulate and help strengthen our own immune response and turn on the “healer within”.

Come join Dr. Greenapple as he teaches a Medical form of Qi Gong, Wudang Eight Silken Brocades (Baduanjin), one of the oldest and most sought-after practices that he learned from Master Zhou when he traveled to the rural mountains of China for study.

This practice focuses on clearing stagnation, aiding to strengthen and enhance all the organs in the body as they follow the 12 meridians of Chinese acupuncture systems. As well, Mindfulness Meditation practice will be added to the class. Currently, in China and Russia, Qi Gong is being taught to hospitalized patients recovering from COVID 19.

Benefits of Qi Gong have been linked to some of the following:

Improves Focus and Concentration
Balances the Nervous System
Insomnia
Migraines/Headaches
Digestive Disorders
Stress/Anxiety/Depression
Chronic Pain
Arthritis
Chronic Inflammation
Strengthen Muscles
Release Muscle Tension
Cancer (symptoms of fatigue and brain fog)
Pulmonary and Breathing Issues
Balance and Coordination
Sports and Performance Enhancement

The class will be limited to 20 participants.
Cost: $25

Qi Gong, Mindfulness Meditation & Acupressure Workshop
2022-03-23 18:00 - 19:30 UTC | Thrive Multipurpose Room
Qi Gong is a combination of movement, breath techniques, postures + mindfulness meditation.

Or, as Dr. Greenapple likes to refer to it as “Acupuncture without needles”, and “Movement Meditation or Movement Medication”. Qi means life force, vital energy, breath”. Gong means “work and cultivation”. So, Qi Gong can be translated as “vital energy cultivation” or mastering your “vital energy”. It is the integration of all the above.

These simple exercises can have profound effects and literally can make medicine for no cost based on the fact we can alter, enhance or sedate some of the neurotransmitters and hormones responsible for both healing and causing disease states.

With these deliberate and intentful movement patterns, breath work, and present mindful awareness, we can enhance the immune system to help become more coherent and regulate the body’s sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems for better relaxation, healing, sleep, and mental acuity. Qi Gong can help clear toxic energy by purging the body of unhealthy and negative thoughts, emotions, and physical stagnation. It can improve circulation, relieve pain, increase energy and Qi Gong has been called “something that helps you to age radiantly”.

Benefits of Qi Gong

Anti-Aging
Chronic Pain
Insomnia
Stress
Anxiety/Depression
Migraines and Other Headaches
Inflammatory Conditions
Arthritis
Digestive Disorders
Heart Disease
Hormonal Imbalances
Performance Enhancement
And More………..

Join Dr. Greenapple for this informative workshop and learn the Eastern Philosophy and how to keep your body healthy with this ancient yet powerful part of Eastern Medicine and turn on your healer within. This will be a hands-on, movement, breathwork and meditation class with additional self-massage/acupressure points shown for home self/health care.

Space is limited to 15 participants

Date: Wednesday, March 23rd
Time: 6 – 7:30pm
