Qigong is an ancient practice with roots in Taoism, which seeks to find harmony and balance through nature. Qigong philosophy is reflected in ancient Chinese medicine. It enhances health and well-being though the practice of slow continuous movements, or forms, and controlled breathing. Qigong practice improves strength, flexibility, and balance and can help reduce stress. Qigong forms can flow one into another or stand alone to be practiced through repetition. The structure of a Qigong class is similar to that of a yoga class in that one class does not necessarily build on the previous class, as is the case with Tai Chi. Tai Chi is a form of Qigong; however Tai Chi requires memorizing a pre-determined sequence of forms, whereas Qigong does not.

Tis the season across many cultures for remembering, venerating, and connecting to our ancestral lineages and loved ones as we bid farewell to summer and near the end of the harvest season. Join us for an evening of guided meditation and crafting.
We will be discussing various ways to observe the season and connect with our lineages and ancestors while creating charm bags to take home to work with and/or place on your altar or sacred spaces to maintain that connection during the current season and beyond. Discover which crystals, stones, and plants help to support this work and connection. All crafting supplies needed to create your charm bag are covered in class fee. Please feel free to bring anything from home that you would like to include in your charm bag or have on-hand during our meditation (photos, momentos, anything that reminds you of a specific ancestor or your ancestral lineage, special stones, etc.). You may also want to bring along a journal and pen to jot down any impressions from your meditation.
Workshop is limited to 10 participants.

NO LIVESTREAM OPTION FOR THIS EVENT
Join us the third Friday of every month for an evening of grounding, relaxation, and meditation utilizing the gong, singing bowls, and other sound/vibrational methods that have been shown to offer measurable health benefits, aiding in alleviating symptoms of anxiety and stress, promoting more restful sleep, support in lowering blood pressure, and pain relief.
Expect to sit or lie in relaxation while the deep, earthy tones of the Chao gong and bright, soothing tones of singing bowls and bells wash over you. For stressed and overly-active minds, the tones from the gong give the mind something to anchor to as you learn to release into deeper states of relaxation.
Attendees are welcome and encouraged to bring their own yoga mat, pillows, blankets, or bolsters to pad their nest and support their comfort. The studio does have communal mats, blankets and bolsters available for public use at no additional cost.
Tea and infused water will be available for attendees after the session. All participants are invited to stay afterward to spend time in community and/or to shop at Energetic Alchemy for select tumbled stones, hand-crafted incense, bath salts, and sun catchers.

Class is facilitated by Clarissa Boggess, E-RYT200/RYT500, YACEP. Join us for this practice of stillness and release. Through the slow, simple movements of Somatic Yoga, our class begins by softening muscles and connective tissues that contribute to pain and tension. We then move into the Restorative Yoga experience where we will explore 4-5 yoga poses, completely supported by props. These poses are passive rather than active, meaning that the muscles are in a state of near complete relaxation allowing the mind to soften and surrender. Poses are held for 5-10 minutes each depending on the posture. Our class finishes in deep relaxation with a fusion of guided meditation, mindfulness, and yoga nidra.
Class is $18. Community Share Jar passes can be used for this class!!
Register and access special Restorative Pass above.
