Sensing Qi Training

Prerequisite: None. Open to Beginners

This 3-hour overview of Tricia Yu’s method for learning to experience qi or life energy and for teaching this awareness. This skill is natural and easy to learn. When you sense qi, you are more alive to each moment, experiencing things at a level more subtle than your habitual consciousness.  Relaxing and energizing! Qi is healing energy of Reiki, and other forms of energy healing.  Sensing qi enhances benefits of qigong routines and virtually all other activities.
