Qigong Workshop for Autumn
The Way of Release
with Abbie Harvey
As autumn deepens and the first frost begins to touch the earth, nature invites us to slow down, soften and turn inward.
Join this nurturing 90-minute qigong journey inspired by the last autumn solar term in the Chinese calendar known as "Frost Descent".
Frost Descent marks the phase between the falling leaves of autumn and the stillness of winter. In the wisdom of Traditional Chinese Medicine, this is a time to conserve our energy, nourish the lungs, protect our warmth and begin the gentle turning inward that winter asks of us.
Through flowing qigong movements, breath work, stillness and seasonal practices, you will explore how to embody a quieter rhythm; releasing what is ready to fall away and gathering energy for the season ahead.
Like the trees letting go of their leaves, we too can soften our grip. Take a moment to gather, release and return to yourself.
No previous qigong experience is needed. Come as you are, and let the season guide you inward.
About Qigong:
Often described as the art of effortless power, Qigong is one of the five pillars of Traditional Chinese Medicine and can be translated as a form of energy cultivation which includes movement, visualisation, meditation and breathwork to help restore balance in body-mind-spirit.
