Moving into Spring, we feel the surges of new life bubbling up from below the earth, budding on tree branches and in our own bodies. In Chinese Medicine it is the Liver that is the expression of the Wood Element, the element that allows Spring to occur in our bodies and our lives. Wood energy graces us with new vision, the heart-felt experience of hope, new beginnings, growth and individuation after the watery world of Winter. When we try to take a step into Spring but our Wood Element is weak or overactive, it can manifest as lack of vision and hope, anger, restlessness and an inability to begin anew. Join us for this online class in which we will nourish our Liver and the Wood Element through primal gesture and archetypal qigong forms.
