"A healer in every family and a world without pain."
You were born a healer! Each and every one of us is born with the gift and ability to help ourselves and others heal physically, mentally, and spiritually. This is one of the foundational teachings of Spring Forest Qigong.
Spring Forest Qigong’s (SFQ) main principle is the most powerful force in the universe is unconditional love. When we are able to let go of our fears and doubts and connect with this unconditional love energy the faster and deeper we can heal ourselves and others.

SFQ is a simple, efficient, and effective method for helping you experience your optimal health, wellness, and happiness; helping you heal physical and emotional pain; and enhancing the quality of your life and the lives of others.
SFQ is comprised of four parts that all work together:
Breathing
Gentle movements (active exercises)
Mental focus
Sound
Participates in the workshop will learn the general principles of Chinese Medicine and qigong, the SFQ qigong active and meditation exercises, and participate in individual and group healing sessions.
