Autumn Equinox Qigong & Sound Bath

September 25 at 11am | Grateful Yoga; Evanston

Qigong is a Chinese healing art that uses breathing, movement, visualization and focused intention to circulate qi (energy/life force). It helps revitalize the body and supports well-being. This style of qigong features continuous gentle movements, tapping to awaken qi meridian lines, and guided meditative imagery to mirror the way nature flows.

This seasonal workshop will honor with the transition between the season of Late Summer (associated with the Earth) and Fall (associated with Metal).  Lisa will lead practices to support a release of summer energies and a smooth entrance into the autumnal dynamics of reflection and letting go. Chinese medicine associates Fall with the lungs & large intestine, so this is an auspicious time to strengthen the lung qi to prepare the immune & respiratory system for the cold season to come.

The workshop will conclude with a 15-minute sound bath, where participants can luxuriate in vibratory delight as Lisa fills the room with crystal singing bowls, chimes, Native American flute and vocal tones.

This workshop is held in person at the studio. Masks optional, please don't come if you are symptomatic - we'll give you a refund.
