Winter Seasonal Qi 2026 Zoom
2026-01-10 10:00 - 11:00 | Online – Zoom, United States
Winter Qigong practices focus on the organs of the Water Element:
In your body, the water element particularly affects your kidneys, urinary bladder, fluids, spinal cord, bone marrow and brain.
During this period, all of nature is in a state of stillness and hibernation. Therefore, it’s the best time of year to conserve your energy and nourish your qi. Qigong practices for winter emphasize stillness and inward reflection, sleeping longer hours, taking nans self-massage and maintaining internal warmth throughout the organs especially in the lower Dantian, which is your internal furnace.
✨ No experience is needed—just bring your curiosity and a willingness to move gently and connect.
✨ Free and open to all—feel free to invite friends and family!
We’re excited to share this calming, grounding space with you. Hope to see you there!
To your health,
Deirdre, Sheri, Sifu Dan, Maureen, Betty, Deb, Meghan and Mike

Chi Fest 2026 * Free
2026-01-24 10:00 - 16:00 | Jarboe Park Community Center, 510 Florida Blvd, Neptune Beach, Florida, 32266
Join us for a day of Celebration, as we promote a positive, healthy, and sustainable lifestyle. Chi is a Chinese term for a vital life force or energy that flows through all living things, connecting the physical, mental, and spiritual aspects of a person. It is an invisible force, often compared to an electric current, that can be strengthened through practices like diet, sleep, and exercise, and is considered to be in balance when one is healthy and vibrant.

* Medical Chi *Nature Chi *Juggling Chi *Walking with the Clouds Chi
*Animal Frolics Chi *Three Treasures/Five Elements *Dancing Chi

Life force: Chi is understood as the animating force behind life itself.
Universal energy: It is not limited to people, but is a universal energy that flows through all of nature.
Physical and non-physical: On a physical level, chi can be seen as the air we breathe, while on a more energetic or spiritual level, it connects the body, mind, and spirit.
Yin and Yang: The flow and balance of chi are deeply connected to the principles of yin and yang, which describe complementary and interconnected forces.
Health and vitality: When chi is balanced, it is associated with good health, vitality, and a strong sense of well-being. When it is blocked or imbalanced, it can lead to illness.
