Qigong for Breast Health
​
Qigong and Traditional Chinese Medicine principles are powerful rebalancing practices that help the body restore health. This workshop covers various aspects of breast cancer prevention. For thousands of years, traditional Chinese medicine has embraced natural healing techniques. They discovered the body’s connection to nature and learned how to apply this wisdom to recognize imbalances in the body. We’ll explore the importance of energy flow for overall well-being and talk about how emotions and lifestyle, including eating habits affect the digestive system. A well-functioning digestive system is crucial to breast health. You will also learn 7 powerful Wu Mind Qigong movements specifically designed to guide energy through meridians that run through the breast and to aid the digestive system in regaining balance. n addition to the Qigong postures, Guidance on foods to eat, and what foods draw energy from your digestive system will be covered. Also we will learned about the role emotions play in creating imbalances and what steps can help you realign with inner calm. The Eastern perspective on illness is not fear-based. The view is shifted to recognize that “illness” is merely an imbalance in life. Together we’ll work towards encouraging the body to come back to balance. A mini guidebook will be provided.
