Integrated Qi Gong
The Qi Gong Styles that I incorporate in my group and private sessions are an integration of the following Qi Gong Styles which include Five Element Qi Gong, Six Healing Sounds Qi Gong, Inner Smile Qi Gong Meditation, Microcosmic Orbit, Iron Shirt Qi Gong, Buddha Palm Qi Gong and Spring Forest Qi Gong

Five Elements Qi Gong
Creative or Generative Cycle - Water generates wood, which generates fire, which generates earth, which produces metal, which completes the cycle by creating water.

Control or Destructive Cycle - Water impedes fire, fire reduces metal, metal controls wood, wood reduces earth, and earth impedes water.

- Fire energy=summer

- Wood energy=spring

- Water energy=winter

- Metal energy=fall

- Earth energy=late summer/early fall

Six Healing Sounds Qi Gong
Good to practice at the closing of a Qi Gong Meditation Practice, end of an exercise session, end of the day's work, or whenever the energies need soothing and settling.

Practice focuses on five organs or organ systems and in addition the Triple Warmer, which is not associated with a particular organ but with the three energy centers of the body: head, heart and abdomen.

This practice helps balance and integrate our sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems, promoting health, resilience, and vitality.

Inner Smile Qi Gong Meditation
- Emotions are energy and can be transformed.

- Energy always moves from one state to another

- One of the secrets to long life and happiness

- The inner smile is the smile you share with yourself, it is the feeling on the inside, unconditional love for yourself.

- The inner smile helps us to cultivate a natural, positive, loving energy.

- The inner smile is an inward smile, an authentic smiling with your eyes and showing appreciation for all the work the body does for you.

- The inner smile Qi Gong meditation is a way to heal ourselves and deliver health benefits to our bodies and transform negative emotions.

Microcosmic Orbit Meditation
Microcosmic Orbit Meditation is a practice for opening and clearing the microcosmic channel of stress and tension and circulating life force through this channel. Helping us to cultivate inner balance, health and plays an essential role for emotional stability and spiritual clarity.

Iron Shirt Qi Gong Postures
Iron Shirt Qi Gong practice teaches rootedness with Mother Earth to stabilize and center oneself. There are many health benefits of practicing Iron Shirt: internal strength improved, general health improved and maintain youthfulness. Many who practice Iron Shirt Qi Gong techniques consistently over extended periods of time perfect mental faculties, developing extraordinary abilities. Iron Shirt is a practice to perfect your inner-self, strengthening and protection for your organs, muscles and glands. This is a vital practice for anyone seeking to be healthier, have a sound mind and gain spiritual insight. 

Buddha Palm Qi Gong
Buddha Palm Qi Gong is especially powerful for qi gong practitioners and healers to build and protect their own qi and through the practice learn to channel earth and universal energy. A practice of self-healing. Through qi cultivation and directing the flow of qi to the organ systems, Buddha Palm Qi Gong helps to build qi in the body and awaken our natural healing potential.
