The qigong principles behind the Five Elements Flow movements are that they work with the five yin organs (heart, spleen, kidneys, lungs, and liver) and corresponding meridians, the passageways through which Qi, or energy, flows. They are designed to circulate Qi as well as remove stagnant energy from these organs, contributing to greater health and longevity. While designed as a sequence of qigong classes to do over the course of the year, each session stands on its own. Please consult your physician before beginning any new exercise regimen.

In this session, we will embrace the characteristics of the Fire Element. Fire is connected to the heart and is associated with the positive attributes of warmth and persistence and the negative attributes of impulsiveness and restlessness. Anxiety occurs when the heart is out of balance. The movements in the practice are intended to balance your heart energy to reveal joy.
