Qigong Workshop As a practitioner of Chinese Medicine, Ralph has long been interested in practical ways in which we can improve and maintain our health. Gentle, oriental exercises called Qigong can make an important contribution to our self-healing. QIGONG is the Chinese art of cultivating "chi" energy in the body by combining breathing, movement and mindfulness. He would like to share with you a 4 minute fitness workout based on qigong principles, that is easy and fun to learn and can readily be done at home. Two sessions will be offered to learn this gentle, but effective body-mind workout. The first one will cover the basics. The second session will give you an opportunity to consolidate and fine-tune your practice. There is an excellent optional video for those who want support in keeping focused and motivated in your practice. This is a unique opportunity to decrease stress and improve fitness, focus, flexibility, balance, breathing and attitude in only 4 minutes a day. Self-Acupressure & Self-Massage Workshop Self-acupressure and oriental self-massage are hands-on, practical and free ways to improve and maintain health. They are an integral part of Chinese Medicine. The workshop consists of two sessions. The first session will focus on learning three self-massage sequences that you can use regularly in the morning, at work and in the evening respectively. They will leave you both relaxed and energized. The second session will include some simple self-acupressure treatments for a variety of conditions, such as headaches, backaches, sinus congestion, the common cold or a weak immune system. A variety of massage and acupressure tools will also be shown and demonstrated.
