The solstice approaches on little cat's feet ~
You are all invited to join me a week from tonight from 6:45 - 8pm PST for a free online Winter Solstice Qigong Meditation.
We will practice gentle 3 Sources Qigong to shake out our stagnation and connect, then sit down to welcome the 7:27pm PST solstice arrival with a traditional Daoist candle gazing meditation. In the darkest hour, we foster the returning Yang Qi as a gentle flame in the belly. No experience needed.
