Healthy Living Acupuncture: Binghamton and Oneonta New York

Chinese medicine, like Ayurvedic medicine, its Indian counterpart, is the science of life. This science is dedicated to grasping the laws of the life force, which includes: its flow, or movement; its balance, or harmony; its change, or transmutation (qi hua); its rhythms, or cycles; its origin, supply, assimilation, transformation, storage, release, and excretion; its pathways; its correspondences; and its functions. All of these are susceptible to a precisely refined and sophisticated diagnostic methodology.

…

In Chinese medicine, one studies and treats the person, and not the disease, whereas in the west, we treat the disease and not the person.

10:00am – 4:00pm

In this experiential course, you will learn to harness your inherent life-force more deeply by establishing a conscious connection with it, experiencing how it moves, and discovering ways of enhancing it.

10:00am – Noon

The morning session will begin with gentle Pranayama breathing exercises to open your channels, followed by a Calm Abiding meditation. Then we’ll transition into a delightful Jin Jing (Tendon Strengthening) Qigong practice that will help free and strengthen your whole body.

*Wear loose, comfortable clothing (as you might for a yoga class)

Noon – 1:00pm Lunch Break
(bring your own or purchase at Origins Cafe)

1:00pm – 4:00pm
(including a tea break)

In the afternoon, we will deepen our exploration of what Qi actually is: how it’s generated and the patterned ways it moves. We’ll talk about daily and seasonal cycles, emotions, foods and herbs, and how they affect our energy.
