There’s something deeply healing about practices that invite us back into the heart — not to fix it, but to tend to it with care.

In this beginner-friendly Qi Gong workshop, Cat Capowski will guide us through a heart-centered practice designed to cultivate self-compassion, inner peace, and emotional healing. Rooted in the wisdom of Qi Gong, this experience blends gentle movement, breath, intention, and flow to help release emotional tension and restore balance to your energy.

This workshop will include:
• Warm-up sequences to release stagnant or heavy Qi

• A Qi Gong form supporting the heart and heart protector (pericardium)

• Breathwork and acupressure points to nourish the heart and lung meridians

• A closing yin yoga sequence to gently open the heart center while grounding the body in deep relaxation

This is a practice of remembering that self-love is not indulgent — it’s essential. When we care for our own vitality, we allow energy to move more freely and support both body and spirit.

In Qigong, the heart is considered the love engine and the emperor of emotions, but it doesn’t work alone. The heart is enveloped by a special sac called the pericardium, which protects it from overheating and emotional distress. According to Traditional Chinese Medicine, when we endure a broken heart or emotional turmoil, it is essential to tonify both the heart and the pericardium.

This practice aims to fill you with self-love and connect you to the divine love of creation that is always around you.

We will end our practice with some heart-opening yin yoga poses.

This routine is a heated and dynamic Qigong flow session that focuses on warming the kidneys to boost your vitality and prepare the body for the winter season. It is a great way to prepare yourself for the cold months ahead. In Traditional Chinese Medicine, the season of winter resonates with the water element and the kidney/bladder system. Because of the cold weather, our internal water is susceptible to becoming cold and stagnant. This is why a balance of invigorating movements and nourishing life (yang sheng) Qigong practices are the best choices for winter months.

We will do some breath work as well to stoke the internal fire and end with a short Yin Yoga practice.
