(1A and 1B required)
Description
This one day workshop will enhance your ability to emit qi through the
practice of 5 new meditations. These meditations are based on the principals
that to emit strong qi, one must be able to generate qi and absorb qi
from nature. We live in nature and are a part of nature. Nature provides
a strong source of qi and is ever changing within its own cycles. In absorbing
and cycling qi from nature, we are aligning ourselves with the greater
cosmos. This workshop will further your abilities to absorb and build
qi, in order to assess and emit qi for healing, regulating and eliminating
illnesses. Dr. Lefkowitz has integrated these meditations into his 1B
- MMQ classes and he feels the practices are so rich and rewarding, he
wants to offer the same materials to his advanced and post-graduate students
in this one day workshop.

to the community. A deepening and refinement of one's energetic and tactile
palpation skills. A confidence builder for your table work skills. An
application for correct structural body alignment utilizing Neigong principles
to maximize treatments. An exhaustive set of proven Chinese soft tissue
skills with immediate applications. An elective beyond the scope of the
Medical Qigong courses. Nature's Path Center is very excited and pleased
to announce a new class this fall in Qigong Massage where we will take
an extensive tour through the body with the soft tissue skills of Tuina,
AnMo and Five Element Massage. This course is intended both for energy
practitioners and body workers with beginner, intermediate or advanced
backgrounds. All student levels will gain insights to elevate, refine
with immediate application to their client practice. Throughout this course,
the student will learn, integrate, and apply Neigong (structural linking
the musculoskeletal system) exercises to develop the internal linkage
and body structure mechanics necessary to embody and execute the Tuina,
Five Element Massage and Anmo skills effectively. Tuina is a Chinese soft
tissue (muscle and tendon) therapy used in China for 2,000 years. It uses
the traditional Chinese medical theory of the flow of Qi through the meridians
as it basic therapeutic orientation. Tuina seeks to harmonize the flow
of Qi through the system through hand manipulation techniques that are
based on Pushing and Grasping movements. AnMo , which means Pressing and
Rubbing, is a set of techniques that date back to the Yellow Emperor's
Inner Classic, c. 200 BC, where it was used to effect the movement of
Qi and to invigorate the blood. Traditional Anmo focuses on the energetic
balancing of the viscera through manipulation with the hands. This can
bring energetic harmony to the major organs, facilitates the flow of Qi
and blood throughout the body. Five Element Massage seeks to influence
the muscles, nerve fibers and deep underlying tissues of the body to aid
metabolism and stimulate the energy balance of Qi. Five skills relating
to the Five Elements and their associated organs are utilized for establishing
the energetic vitality of the body. There's an amazing amount of knowledge
and experience that will be shared in this 12 week course. It will bring
your table work skills to a new level. If the content speaks to you, please
