The Journey Home: Gentle Movement for Health, Longevity, and Inner Peace
November 12 @ 3:30 am – 5:00 pm
A five-week series of qigong (gentle movement) classes designed to help us stay centered and calm through the holiday season, while building courage, acceptance, and energy for the New Year.
Thursdays, 3:30 – 5:00 p.m.
November 12 and 19, December 3, 10, and 17, 2026
All levels are welcome, especially beginners and seniors. While drop-ins are accepted, the training is cumulative; each week will build upon the last. For best results, try to attend as many classes as your schedule allows. Seated, standing, and lying down meditations will be offered, but the entire practice can be done while seated if you choose. Please arrive 10 minutes early to get settled. Bring water and a blanket or mat. There is no fee and donations are gratefully accepted.

November 19: Self-Nurturing and Getting Unstuck; self-massage, shaking, and tapping
December 3: Perfect Imperfections: Embracing our Humanity; learning to soften, healing sounds, and filling the organs with light
