Holiday Season
Hello Healing Communi-Qi, Colleagues and Friends,
This winter and holiday season is upon us and the founder of Spring Forest Qigong calls this the season of LOVE.
This is the time when the energy shines brighter and stronger than any other time of the year.
It’s a season that reminds us to slow down, connect and open up our hearts to the world around us.
Remember, we are energetic beings so practice expanding your love energy.
The holidays may feel very busy and are not easy for everyone so taking time for self-care is a priority and self-love is key.
You can consider what you appreciate about yourself each day. There is always something.
Daily Rituals for Calm and Higher Vibration.
Take time to write out what you are grateful for as no matter what is going on gratitude keeps it all in perspective. And, if you want to join me in gratitude exercise you can take a few minutes each day to write about the joy you feel as you give thanks for the simplest things in your life each day.
On the site, listied under meditations, find the Subtle Energy Exercise from William Bloom. You can do daily at this time for your intentions for this holiday season or for any intentions.
This will be on the website in meditation section and annual members can sign in for Qigong Sessions to do in their holiday time. If any healing communi-qi wants a reminder of how to keep kidneys strong in this time as they are on duty, just reach out to me.
In the meantime, focus on expanding your heart, sending love beams out there before you use words. and know every day at 2 p.m. you can send peace and love out in a world-wide community. I have included the you tube explanation of how it works:

As well, here is a short heart math exercise you can do daily.
Upcoming: Starting 2025 with uplifting energy.
I am honored to host a spring forest qigong wellness weekend focusing on the science of healing through spring forest qigong.
It is Level 1 certification for those wanting more in-depth knowledge.
You can join in on January 11th for a few hours and January 12th for a few hours and learn new tools for a new year to keep with you always.
Sessions will resume in 2025. I will reach out.
Please honor yourself with lots of self-compassion and daily rituals during the holidays, and always.
Together, as Love Radiators, in Healing Movement Medicine.

Kidney Energy System
Hello Healing Communi-Qi,
On November 7th, we moved into winter energy and we shared how the Kidney Energy system is on duty now.
I shared some tips for working with the energy now.
This system includes the bladder, ears, spine, brain and bone marrow, and is part of the Water Element and the Emotion connected to the Kidneys is Gratitude.
I have begun the challenge of writing out 10 things a day I appreciate when I wake up and when I go to bed. The acting of writing helps you stay in the moment of the feeling. Remember, you can practice that all you want is already here. Feeling the joy of the experience you want and the gratitude of it already happening. See what happens if you do this each day.
According to some Chinese Medicine practitioners and other experts in this energy field, your dedication will raise your frequency which will raise your energy field and help your immune system. It causes the arteries in your heart to swell and open up.
Here’s Dr. Joe Dispenza sharing why a daily gratitude practice is good and can you practice feeling gratitude even for what hasn't happened yet?

Thank you for joining together in this Communi-Qi😊
Each of us practising uplifting emotions in our day makes a difference to those around us.

Healing Water & Contentment
Hello Healing Communi-Qi,
We worked with the Yin Ener-Qi of Autumn. The active yang energy is moving away to allow room for the more gentle, inward YIN energy.
I shared that focusing on Contentment is an excellent exercise for this season. We shared how qi can make us more sensitive to sounds, sights and our intuitive feelings.
Here are some auditory sounds of fall that might make you feel CONTENT.
Quiet
Crackle of a woodwork flame
Snore of a sleepy dog
Creak of familiar wood floors
Crackle of old book's binding
Pour of coffee into foam
Rustle of leaves on beaches
Choose your moment. Put on a smile, relax your shoulders and breathe deeply for a few minutes. Hello Healing Communi-Qi,

The Five Elements Overview
We focused on the overview of the Five Elements from Spring Forest Qigong. Knowing what is happening is helpful for healing. Just by moving your hands in the way of Moving of Yin and Yang, you can help strengthen the front energy channel. If you visualize the image of column of light inside in the middle of torso at the same time, you can balance the connections of all the internal organs. This movement helps to activate the healing energy of yin and yang moving together in perfect harmony and balance. It helps heal the internal organs, opens the heart and aligns the spine. I’ve discovered that by moving your hands to the sides as in Breathing of the Universe you can strengthen or heal the lungs even faster. I’ve also discovered that by moving your hands above your head as you do in the Connecting with Heaven & Earth movement you can open up the Triple Heaters channel, which is very important to heal and strengthen the gland and lymph systems. This movement heals the lungs and skin and balances the energy inside and outside of the body. The movement of your hands combined with the breathing technique helps to open blockages in the whole body, especially the lungs. By connecting your fingertips together and holding a heart shape in front of your naval for a certain length of time as you do in Connecting with your Body’s Energy you can activate the channels connecting to your heart and lungs. In addition, it will strengthen the muscles and channels in the chest, spine, shoulders, and diaphragm. I’ve also discovered that if you move your body from side to side gently while holding the heart shape with your fingers in front of the naval you can help increase the balance of your brain energy as well as your physical body. You are strengthening. your hips and knees. By repeatedly bending your back slightly forward slowly and then straightening it as in Connecting with your Heart’s Energy, I’ve discovered you can strengthen your spine and back muscles, while opening or keeping your back energy channel open. You help your kidneys, ears, bladder, female breasts, brain bones, bone marrow, reproductive organs and anus. Emotionally, It teaches us that happiness can heal the liver energy system; joy can heal the heart energy system; peaceFULNESS can heal YOUR STOMACH, DIGESTIVE SYSTEM…spleen energy system; contentment can heal the lung, BREAST energy system, and thankfulness AND GRATITUDE can heal the kidney energy system - REPRODUCTIVE SYSTEM, BONE MARROW.
