Do you find yourself perpetually exhausted? Is it a challenge to calm your busy mind? Are you dealing with chronic illness or a difficult life transition?

Or, perhaps you feel good and want to build on that good, inviting even more flexibility, balance, ease, creativity, happiness, self-love and flow in your body and life.

Women’s Qigong

The 4,000-year-old traditional practice of Qigong –Qi(vital energy) Gong(skill cultivated through steady practice)– gives you the tools you need to balance your inner and outer worlds. The smooth, beautiful combination of movement, meditation, breath and sometimes sound, is a powerful tool for you to reclaim or expand your health. It’s moving meditation that puts well-being back in your hands. And, as women, we require unique practices that address our equally unique challenges and lives.

Take your power back.

Join me for weekly online classes and community.

I have studied and practiced Qigong for 15 years as an answer to spinal injuries. I am the author of over 15 self-help and self-care books for women, along with several children’s books and my multi-award-winning memoir, An Accidental Awakening. I live in Cochrane, Alberta.

While I began practicing Qigong for my spine, once menopause arrived, along with a diagnosis of an autoimmune condition that affects women, I deepened my practice, finding it more valuable than ever for sleep, pain management, vitality, calming my mind and body, centering myself, and self-love.

I began studying with advanced Qigong teacher Daisy Lee, certifying in Radiant Lotus Women’s Qigong. I’ve also studied with Grandmaster Chunyi Lin and Grandmaster Mantak Chia. I continue to learn from these devoted teachers.

The results showed that a Qigong program is effective in improving anxiety, depression, and sleep quality in postmenopausal women.

Currently, sleep problems impact most of the general population. However, menopausal women in particular are more impacted.
