This workshop was originally streamed live in March 2022. In the words of Leo Tolstoy, 'Spring is the time of projects and plans.' In the spring, we climb out of the cold, winter months and often feel ready to take on life with renewed vigor. If, however, we're unprepared for it, the outburst of energy can sometimes knock us off balance and be a shock – like we just want to crawl back under a warm duvet! This workshop will explore ways to align with the energy of spring using qigong practices focusing on the element of wood, associated in Chinese medicine with spring, growth, resourcefulness, flexibility and vision. It will also incorporate gentle yoga and somatic movement principles that focus on the health of our tendons, which is the tissue associated with wood.
More Information
In this workshop we'll explore:
• Wood phase tendencies for balance and imbalance.
• Flexibility and what it means in movement.
• Qigong practices for the liver and gall bladder – organs that associate in Chinese medicine with rhythm, dreams, visions, and plans.
About Daoist Flow: Daoist Flow explores the interconnectedness of yoga, qigong, somatics and natural movement with the underlying intention to touch in on our innate qualities of compassion and inner joy. It begins from the idea that everything is part of the whole, a belief found within Yogic, Buddhist and Daoist traditions. Aligning with this wholeness enables us to discover our full potential and inherent wisdom, fluidity and ease within ourselves.
Open to all levels of practitioners.

What people are saying
"Great informative workshop Mimi - thank you. I loved the spiralling movements, have used them with Simon Low too - feels so good in my shoulders. Less pressure on the wrists in d/dog - using the power of intention works so well.
Also loved the soft yet strong dragon/vb/dragon flow - deceptively harder than it looks!
Looking forward to the next workshop, thank you again."
