7-Day Qigong journey to heart harmony
Renee Lehman
Warmth of the Spring gives rise to birth,
the Fire of Summer fuels rapid growth and development,
the coolness of Fall matures all and provides harvest, and
the coldness of Winter forces inactivity and storing.
This is the rhythmic change of nature.
If the four seasons become disrupted, the weather becomes unpredictable
and the energies of the universe will lose their normalcy.
This principle also applies to the body." (Su Wen, chapter 6)
(6/2019) In the December article, it was discussed that we should follow Natural Law and in the May article, the concept of our energy savings and checking accounts was explained. If you missed the May article, think about the following analogy. Your bank’s checking account is analogous to the
energy checking account that you pay your "energetic bills" from on a daily basis. How do you increase the money in your checking account? By depositing more money or by withdrawing less money from your bank’s checking account.
The same is true for your "energetic checking account." We tend to spend, spend, spend from our energy checking account. We deplete our energetic checking account, and then we feel worn out and get sick. So, how would you like to learn how to save your energy? How would you like to deposit more energy into your energy checking account?
From June 23 until June 30, Traditional Chinese Medicine World Foundation and Grand Master Nan Lu, OMD is offering a virtual Heart Harmony seasonal program to support your body-mind-spirit and give yourself a chance to transition smoothly into the upcoming season of summer. In other words, this virtual program is meant to give you an
opportunity to increase the energy in your energetic checking account! It’s meant to help your overall level of health!
What is meant by this being a virtual program? You can live anywhere in the world and participate in this program. All you need is a way to access the internet. You will have exclusive access to all the materials online beginning June 23, 2019. How does this work? When you register online, you will receive a confirmation email. Then two
days prior to the program’s start, you’ll receive a shopping list of suggested food items. One day before, you’ll receive a link to log into your program materials.
Summer is the season that is most closely aligned with the Heart. In Traditional Chinese Medicine, your Heart is the King/Queen. Your Heart is associated with feeling peaceful, calm, and also vibrant. Our modern-day lifestyles create overwork and distress (just to name a few issues). By supporting Hearth health, you are more able to pursue
your passions in life. How can this 7-day program support your Heart?
Grand Master Nan Lu will share Qigong exercises that are specific to the needs of the season, guide you in what foods to prepare and offer teachings that will deepen your understanding of natural law.
Here’s what you’ll experience as a part of this 7-day program.
Guided Meditation - Begin the program with a live call and a guided meditation that will open the door to inner peace. Use this meditation as your daily go-to!
Conference Calls - Grand Master Nan Lu will have two conference calls: Sunday, June 23 and June 30. He will encourage you to move beyond your current level of health and answer your questions during these calls. Tips and guidelines to follow throughout this summer will also be given.
Qigong Exercises - Grand Master Nan Lu has chosen meditative Qigong practices to allow the body to deeply rest. Releasing stress and making room for that feeling of ahhhh is the result you’ll love. There’s also a powerful chanting meditation to enliven your inner vibration.
Eating Plan - Eating fresh, seasonally grown foods helps you tap into this over-looked communication from nature. You will be provided an easy-to-follow 7-day eating plan which includes smoothies and bread. Generally, Traditional Chinese Medicine does not suggest juicing and that’s how unique this session is. You will be taught how to juice
without causing internal harm. Foods include fish, peaches, apricots, tomatoes, napa cabbage, and barley. They’ll provide you with a grocery list of foods including vegetables, fruits, grains, and fish.
Private Facebook Forum - Express your thoughts and share your feelings as you interact with our online community.
Join Me in the 7-Day Qigong Journey to Heart Harmony. Get ready for summer!
