Happy and Healthy Heart Chi Kung
Open the Heart of the Tao, the Way of Natural Healing
Are you ready for a change of heart? Open your heart to new possibilities for yourself through the contemplation of fundamental questions – questions which penetrate the core of life.
What is on your heart? Do you have conflicting “voices” that disturb your “Heart Mind”? How does an individual come to peace with her/his Self? During the Heart Chi Kung Retreat, you will learn how to deal gracefully with the challenges of life. Discover what your heart longs for as well as what nourishes your heart.
Relationships, heartbreaks and separations have a serious effect on human health. All of us are worthy of respectful communication and honor. It is essential to learn how to communicate with the heart of others. If we become involved in distractions to avoid a problem, the problem will often grow in the shadows. Slow down when you are not feeling well or your relationships are on the rocks. Give yourself the space to contemplate, heal and restore your energy.
I experienced the major stresses in life all at once, divorce, the collapse of my life’s work and my health. It was a challenge and what kept me going was unconditional love. The Inner Smile never left me. I was close to death’s door and experienced the total rebuilding of my health. My practice of meditation and Chi Kung helped me to restore my body back after a heart transplant. I have experienced profound healing on all levels through my practice. It is miraculous what energy medicine can do in preventing illness and supporting the life-saving skills of Western medicine.
The spiritual qualities of acceptance, compassion and gratitude have the potential to heal rifts of the soul. What are three blessings that you cherish right now? What do you “hear” when you listen to your heart? We go into our heart to sense the truth. Awaken inspiration by connecting your creative energy with your own higher wisdom. Empower your higher purpose with clear intentions.
In our heart center there is a place where we are always free. Even if we are in prison, we can still be free in our hearts to believe in what we want. When you follow your heart, life flows with synchronicity. You may recall circumstances when you followed your heart and things worked out very well.
Medical Chi Kung (Qigong) is an ancient form of Chinese Energetic Medicine, dating back at least 5000 years. It is one of the four branches of Traditional Chinese Medicine. Chi Kung practitioners today utilize and master the secret knowledge passed down from the “Wu Yi, Qigong meta-physician healers” of ancient times. The practices have been time-tested for longevity and improving the quality of your life.
Cultivate health by respecting our body’s wisdom and flowing with the different seasons of our lives. Chi Kung is beneficial for people of all ages and enhances youthful aging. The Qigong Institute has a database of some 3,500 studies "reporting qigong's positive effects on hypertension, arthritis and longevity." I encourage people to develop a kinder, more compassionate relationship with themselves and those around them. You will become aware of new ways to relate to your body, heart and mind. Both beginners and professionals will benefit from these powerful tools for self-transformation.
When you point to your self where do you point to? Most of us will point to our heart and not the head. The ancients called the heart the ‘Palace of the Spirit’. When our Heart Spirit is happy, it is natural to spontaneously smile. Our real nature is happiness. Happiness is central to every ones’ sense of well being. Chi Kung practice offers you ways to connect with your natural happiness, restore your energy and enhance your health. You will learn at this retreat the following effective ways to cultivate wellness and connect with the vast, wise Universal Heart:
The Inner Smile centers and calms the heart. How can you keep your heart open to all the ups and downs of life? The practice of loving acceptance is essential to keeping centered in these times of accelerated change. The Inner Smile meditation is a way to make friends with the spiritual and physical intelligence of your vital organs, from which your emotions arise. Feel how your body smiles back! Even your chemistry will change and become more balanced.
Growing Virtue Energy we empower whatever reality you want to co-create and boost whatever path you are on. The cultivation of compassion and wisdom makes your life more meaningful. When you connect with your higher guidance through meditation your life becomes inter-dimensional. We weave this high quality energy through our microcosmic energy channels to generate more light. Our heart becomes radiant and loving. We become a lighthouse that withstands the storms. We will practice the Inner Smile in the Creation Cycle, the order of the seasons, to grow more virtue energy. What you focus on you grow. When we live the virtues they grow.
Breath as the Flywheel - The heart is constantly beating, 100,000 times per day, propelling six quarts of blood through 60,000 miles of veins, 20 times the distance across the US from coast to coast. Abdominal breathing mobilizes the circulation so the heart does not have to work so hard. Chi Kung is Oriental Breath Therapy.
Chi Breathing brings energy to the heart. Do you want more energy to live your life to the fullest? We urgently need to grow our healing energy to bring more peace, love and harmony to this world. The key to healing is the conscious breathing of “chi”, the life force that nourishes us. We can breathe consciously and unconsciously, so breath is the bridge between our conscious and unconscious mind. The seat of our consciousness sits in the Heart. “Listen to your heart, Follow your heart, Be true to your self.” There are so many expressions that point to the heart as the Palace of the Spirit. Let your heart breathe freely and set your self free.
Communicate with your Heart and you will communicate with your whole body. The Heart is the Emperor that rules the whole body and communicates with every cell. When the emperor is not happy, the whole kingdom is not happy. When the emperor is feeling good, you feel good. The heart is the conductor of your internal orchestra and is central to creating a harmonious state of being.
Sexual Energy Cultivation fuels the fire of love. Sexuality is a lifelong vital part health and longevity. How can we grow and radiate love? Sexual vitality is the rejuvenating life force and the force behind creative change. It is a very important source of energy that flows through us and keeps us strong. Consciously cultivating of our sexual energy, our innate vitality and deeper life essence, is very healing for the body. We tap into the fountain of youth, our basic rejuvenating life force. The more love, the more orgasmic our experiences become. Feeling orgasmic increases our cardiovascular strength.
Yin Essence is a healing elixir. Dr. Stephen Chang writes, “When the yin energy increases, negative ions are generated. Together these stimulate the parasympathetic nervous system, resulting in decreased blood pressure, slower heartbeat and breathing.” When we mix sexual energy into our saliva we produce a “long-life wine”.
Self Love - To be loved, to love and to be free are essential gestures for feeling happy. Healing starts with self-love. Passion is transformed into compassion through spiritual practice.
Stress Management is crucial in keeping the heart healthy. Heart disease is the number one killer. How can we manage stress in a way that protects our heart? At this Healing Tao Heart Chi Kung Retreat you will learn many tools to deal with stress by building a stronger mind-heart-body connection. The physical training through integrated movement becomes a gateway to the spiritual.
Emotional Transformation is felt by the heart, which perceives our emotions. I have added the Healing Sounds to the traditional form of “Balance the Heart Chi Kung” to enhance the emotional transformation. For example, the Triple Warmer Sound is used to cool down excess heat and calm the mind and heart. We will also ground and recharge with tree hugging. The trees help to neutralize our negativity and nourish our soul.
Calm the Blood, Calm the Ego - The practices are designed to balance fire and water, calming the heart with water and warming the kidneys with fire. This prevents the heart from being “cooked” by “false fire”, and over-stimulated by adrenalin, external stimulants, and stress. Make the blood peaceful. When the ego, which works through the muscles, aligns with the higher good there is less personal tension. The ego relaxes. The seat of the ego is in the physical heart. When we feel separate from the world it creates a subtle contraction in the heart. When we connect with the vast Universal Heart, the Love that binds all beings, our heart expands. Our heart is the seat of consciousness, compassion and unconditional love.
Negative Emotions, like impatience and hatred, contract the heart. The heart is an organ of perception, which perceives the feelings arising from the other organs. The heart is considered a pump but when they bypass the heart the blood moves faster. It regulates the blood to perceive the feelings in the blood. When we feel angry our face turns red and our hands clench into fists. There is a lot of energy but it hits resistance and there is closure in the heart. This contraction can be harmful for the heart, and creates damaging cholesterol. On the other hand, appropriate anger is the first line of defense, which protects our heart.
Love brings out the best in us. When we smile with love and appreciation to someone, that person feels good and will work better. When we smile to our heart and shine love to our other organs it brings out the virtues and balances any excess negativity that may be held there. The heart is like the sun, which brings out the beauty of nature. Have you noticed that more people are smiling on a sunny day? The heart thrives on love. Married people tend to live longer lives. Divorce or the death of a loved one can become a medical emergency. Creating a loving
