Beginners and Drop ins welcome!
No prior meditation or Qigong experience required!
In this weekly meditation circle, you will be guided through
inner Qigong "energy work"
also known as
Neigong
. The meditative practices focus on cultivating inner Qi for health and wellbeing using awareness, breathwork, intention and visualizations in a state of stillness.
This class will begin with gentle Qigong movements to clear and prepare the body for sitting or standing meditation. Then we will move into a 20 minute guided meditation using inner awareness practices.

What happens in class?
You will be guided through a series of targeted gentle movements preparing the body for meditation by awakening, releasing tension and blocked Qi in the spine, energy centers and meridians. Once the body is activated, we will then move into a guided meditation using inner awareness, visualizations, breathwork and intention (Yi Mind). There will be time at the end for optional questions and shares.
Most meditation classes will be taught by Kimberly while sitting, but movements and meditation are modifiable to laying down or a standing posture whichever is most comfortable for you. For sitting meditation, you can use a chair, meditation cushion, bedside or couch. No other equipment needed. These classes do not require memorization of movements or prior meditation or Qigong experience.
Meditations will vary from class to class and are recorded.
