Elemental Alchemy - Qi Gong + Energy Medicine creates a powerful understanding of our chi (energy) flows. It helps us tap into our intrinsic healing potential for ourselves and for others and to live with optimum vitality. Revitalising our connection to the earth and elementals as well as the heavens and the mystical alchemy alive within us and available for us to tap into anytime.
These workshops can be taken individually or together as a series to become a teacher or for your own depth of practice (there are 10 in each series)
Taken as a series over one or two years you will experience a deep and profound cleansing and rejuvenation of your whole system as we move through the elements (including organs and meridians for each element) and then into the deeper chi flows of the alchemy series.
As part of these modules, using Willa's knowledge as a medicine woman, we also tap into plant medicine, tea ceremony and essential oils for each element - using all our senses to unlock powerful healing and rejuvenation.
Elemental Alchemy incorporates classic styles and philosophies with modern bodymind and energy concepts. The approach explores body and chi awareness as a way to deepen into our internal chi flow through movement, stillness, meditation and breath. We open to creative space to allow our essential nature to express itself and bring about transformations. The approach emphasizes the five elements as the foundation of our energy medicine.
The workshops are an ongoing series that participants can enter at any point. The workshops can either be attended individually or as a whole series.
There are ten, 2 day workshops and the overall intention of the workshops are to present Elemental Alchemy as a way to open to a deeper and richer connection to the life force within the human system and within nature. In particular to listen and be aware of the subtle power of your own health and become aware of movements of chi within your body and mind. To build resilience in our systems and create the platform for growth, expansion and awareness.
