This sessions is the third in a 5-part series building on Mimi Kuo-Deemer's Lecture, Movement as Medicine: Elemental Qigong for Nourishing Body, Mind and Spirit. Feel free to watch all or one of the sessions.
This practice session offers qigong forms associated with the Earth phase/element, which reflects the ability to find ease and stay centered amidst the many opposing forces that may be at work in our everyday lives. It is accessible to all levels, experiences and abilities.
Mimi Kuo-Deemer, MA, is the author of Qigong and the Tai Chi Axis: Nourishing Practices for Body, Mind and Spirit and Xiu Yang: The Ancient Chinese Art of Self-Cultivation. She teaches qigong, internal martial arts (6th generation lineage holder in Baguazhang) and meditation, and once traveled the world as a photojournalist for organizations such as The New York Times, UNDP and UNESCO. Since graduating with Stanford’s class of ’94, she has lived and worked in China and the United States before settling in the British countryside with her husband and their dog, three cats, 6 chickens and 60,000 bees. She champions the balance of playfulness and precision as the best way forward in life, and never underestimates how sitting, breathing, and conscious movement grant the clearest and most compassionate perspective on the joyful yet mysterious, messy, and unpredictable job of being human
